Update #1: Local installation in Cambridge at Live Alive
I've been in contact with some folks at the organic vegetarian restaurant Life Alive in central square Cambridge. And I've got an old computer donated through Serious Business so once we have a couple months of movies, we will be setting up an installation in the restaurant showing the farm videos.

Dan grew up in rural Michigan with a big backyard and woods behind his house. He explored, built lots of forts, and climbed trees. One day he discovered the flickering of the television and it drew him in for hours on end. Next thing he knows he is traveling far away from home to find out about big cities, rock and roll, robotics, and other shiny things burned into his young brain. He studied lots and found he could put together complex things with motors, electronics, and computers. He had given up television but the internet had replaced it. He could spend hours surfing around for that special nugget. Everything was out there somewhere. Glimpses of other worlds, cultures, and projects to expand. But why is media always about somewhere else, somewhen else? What about media for right here, right now? Would that help him to breathe easier?
