The radical youth movements of the 1960s and '70s gave rise to both
militant political groups ranging from urban guerrilla groups to
autonomist counterculture, as well as radical media, including radio,
music, film, video, and television. This book is concerned with both of
those tendencies considered as bifurcations of radical media ecologies
in the 1970s. While some of the forms of media creativity and invention
mapped here, such as militant film and video, pirate radio and guerrilla
television, fit within conventional definitions of media, others, such
as urban guerrilla groups and autonomous movements, do not. Nevertheless
what was at stake in all these ventures was the use of available means
of expression in order to produce transformative effects, and they were
all in different ways responding to ideas and practices of guerrilla
struggle and specifically of guerrilla media. This book examines these
radical media ecologies as guerrilla networks, emphasising the proximity
and inseparability of radical media and political practices.
