[Imc-uk-features] Re. Meeting 4.8.4-Pamphlet

[Anarcho Babe]

Hm,

thought the Undercurrents video "Globalisation and the media" is the most 
excellent piece for media students produced so far, and had good 
experiences so far showing to media students in Edinburgh and Sunderland 
University.
does it really have to be something written? Otherwise a transcript of the 
video might also do. (if there are not enough people or ideas or as an 
addition?)

ciao Ulla
