Hi Helen,
Could you persuade one or two of your participants to give a short
account of the "situation" and share it with us here on Netbehaviour?
Especially for those of us who are unable to log in for the event.
The topic is so rich and will resonate with people in many places. The
current political upheaval seems to pivot on the tension between global
forces and local agency.
It would be great to have a report from the ground.
Break a digit!
:)

hi everyone,
"We have a situation, Coventry!
<http://www.wehaveasituation.net/?page_id=1414>" takes place live
online in UpStage, on *Thursday 24 November at 7pm UK time*.
"We have a situation, Coventry!" is the sixth event in the ongoing
networked performance series "We have a situation!
<http://www.wehaveasituation.net/>", which uses cyberformance to
address topical local/global issues. This "situation" explores the
university-city relationship in Coventry. As the university rapidly
grows and dominates the centre of the city, what is happening to the
social relationships between the local citizens and the staff and
students of the university? What does the university bring to
Coventry, and what does the town give to the university? What is
gained or lost in the process?
The event on Thursday 24th consists of a cyberformance followed by a
live discussion between local participants at the Shopfront Theatre in
Coventry and online participants from around the world. The
cyberformance is being created by university students and Coventry
locals during a week-long workshop, led by Helen Varley Jamieson who
is currently International Artist in Residence at Coventry
University's Disruptive Media Learning Lab.
A live link to the online stage will be available here
<https://upstage.org.nz/?event=we-have-a-situation-coventry> and here
<http://www.wehaveasituation.net/?page_id=1414> shortly before the
performance time; find your local time here
