Volunteer Oppurtunity

A mobile film installation projected on homes in foreclosure providing a visual voice to the silent issues behind this prevalent displacement of our community.

Diaspora:

1. scattering, dispersion
2. the movement, migration, or scattering of a people away from an established or ancestral homeland

A mobile film installation projected on homes that are in the process of foreclosure or are foreclosed. 'Diaspora' is a project designed to provide a visual voice for those individuals and families within our community who have recently lost or are in the midst of loosing their home, to tell their story. Embracing the silent issues within and behind foreclosure, this project aims to give those issues surrounding foreclosure leverage by providing a mobile projection platform that will publicly highlight how prevalent foreclosure is and how many people are directly facing the reality of foreclosure within our community.

We need volunteers to:

Help run film installation equipment installed on MAW's mobile bike platforms (equipment includes projectors, iPod Touch devices, speakers, and bikes)

Help guard and keep equipment safe

Help facilitate the experience of festival viewers
