Us Now at the RSA
I met Ivo Gormley 18 months ago when our paths crossed at an Involve event entitled MySpace Not Yours, we seemed to find common ground barbing Ian Dale for not aiming high enough with the potential changes that social tools could herald for governmental institutions.
I worked with Ivo on an early draft of a film brief, helping with some ideas and generally chatting with him about his film idea. Ivo took the film forward; getting Banyak Films on board and gaining support from the RSA. In the interim I moved to Headshift. A few months into my time at Headshift an email request came through for an interview with the Co-Founder of Headshift, Lee Bryant, to be included in a documentary film about mass collaboration, government and the internet. It all sounded very familiar, it was indeed Ivo’s Film.
And so, I am really pleased to be able to say that Us Now will have its premier screening on Wednesday at the RSA.
Us Now is directed by Ivo Gormley and produced by Banyak films in association with the RSA. It is a documentary film about the power of mass collaboration, government and the internet – I thoroughly recommend you sign up.
Two advanced screenings are taking place in central London, the first at the RSA on 3rd of December and the second at the Prince Charles Cinema on 10th December. To attend either of these events let your mouse wander here… 3rd December 2008 at the RSA & 10th December 2008 at the Prince Charles Cinema
And if that isn’t enough to get you to sign up, then please enjoy the trailer below and the the sheer delight that explodes behind Clay Shirky’s eyes at his mention of “more people”.
