This publication accompanies the titled event in Jakarta, from 10 to 27 July 2007. Introductory articles and details of individual works featured.
'The term militia means to arm a group of people in an armed movement to alter and seize power. But militia also means to empower civilians in an organized, well planned manner and mobilize then for the sake of change whose beginning should take place within us all.
In OK. Video Militia: 3rd Jakarta International Video Festival 2007, "to arm" means to give opportunity to the public to use a video (camera) to challenge the hegemony of the audio-visual language. This is connected to the development of the video medium within the society, inviting the people as technology and media users to join us in building awareness of social issues that are taking place.' - Hafiz, Artistic Director of OK. Video Militia: 3rd Jakarta International Video Festival 2007.
