 ------------------------------

 Join us for a provocative evening of performance, media art and rebel
phones. The event will highlight three extraordinary projects that support
immigrant communities in Los Angeles through the use of mobile-phone
devices. The controversial Transborder Immigrant Tool, a mobile-phone app by
the Electronic Disturbance Theater 2.0/b.a.n.g lab, helps sustain those
crossing the border into the United States by assisting with directions to
water and poetry. Voces Móviles/Mobile Voices (VozMob), a collaboration
between USC’s Annenberg School and the Institute of Popular Education of
Southern California, helps day laborers record and share their stories using
cell phones. The LA Flood Project delivers a locative media narrative about
crises in Los Angeles—both historical and imagined. These stories, located
across the Southern California landscape, are mapped via GPS. The evening
will also include photographs by Maria de Lourdes González Reyes, a reading
by Roberto Leni-Olivares and a discussion moderated by USC Annenberg
professor Josh Kun.

Organized by Mark C. Marino (Writing Program) and Roberto Leni-Olivares
(Anthropology). Co-sponsored by the Institute for Multimedia Literacy, the
Center for Transformative Scholarship, the Center for the Study of Immigrant
Integration, El Centro Chicano and the Latina/o Student Assembly.
