1. Coalition Of The Willing
2 months ago
'Coalition of the Willing' is a collaborative animated film and web-based event about an online war against global warming in a 'post Copenhagen' world.
‘Coalition of the Willing’ has been Directed and produced by Knife Party, written by Tim Rayner and crafted by a network of 24 artists from around the world using varied and eclectic film making techniques. Collaborators include some of the world’s top moving image talent, such as Decoy, World Leaders and Parasol Island.
The film offers a response to the major problem of our time: how to galvanize and enlist the global publics in the fight against global warming. This optimistic and principled film explores how we could use new Internet technologies to leverage the powers of activists, experts, and ordinary citizens in collaborative ventures to combat climate change. Through analyses of swarm activity and social revolution, 'Coalition of the Willing' makes a compelling case for the new online activism and explains how to hand the fight against global warming to the people.

Lets all get to work!
thank you, the world needs minds like these involved in this project.
not only was the animation stunning throughout it really meant something and provides an avenue to make people sit and listen to how they along with others can make the change that is needed in our societies.
the world in inhabited by the masses so it is our responsibility along with those in power of the corporations and the governments, although like is said here they have vested interests.
So inspiring. So worthwhile the hard work.
Thankyou all involved, regards - Daniel.
As regards your comment, we feel that a system, like the one we propose is a very simple ask indeed. In fact, there are such destinations already, but perhaps nothing high profile enough and multi-facetted enough to do the job.
heres the link.
All the best, I hope as many people see this as possible.
It's a beautiful collaboration for this universal message!
Thanks for the planet
I got this published at:

Keep up good work dudes!
ON THE CONTENT LEVEL, CHAPEAU BAS!!!
It's speaking for itself Simon.
My heart-felt admiration and gratitude to all involved.
The film is a perfect example of what can be achieved by good people working together even if they are physically separated by oceans. When our hearts and minds come together for the common good, anything is possible.
I'll say it again : Brilliant.
and I'm so excited we are doing it! :-)
When you have the video with portuguese subtittle I will be able to spread to people that don't understand english.
great job to everyone that worked on this project
much <3
very good message, which in my opinion not only concerns global warming, but many other aspects of our postcapitalistic world.
so lets wake poeple up and collaborate to make the world a better place! thats what its about.
swarm! :)
Focus should be on pressuring governments and industry rather than recycling and putting solar panels on our roofs...
Also rather confused about the large 60's segment. Are you saying we should all do acid to save the world?
If you are wedded to the idea of top down bureaucratic government as a model for the future and don't understand the nature and power of grass roots movements, then we can't help you I'm afraid.
The 60's section was a 'send up' of how we remember the 60's as opposed to the real power of what went on in that era; rhizomatic grass-roots movements. We go on to state this in the film.
My feeling is that your response is angry and reactionary. Starting with 'Hippy BS' does your argument no favours at all. Watch the movie a couple more times, maybe you'll find something interesting in the message if you do?
I think the message of this film reveals a perfect opportunity for everybody to join a community of like-minded people that are willing to change something for real. Nothing about acid and pressure on the governments - they are corrupted anyway. As they say in the film: "No government would turn on their own citizens" Jobs, Gates, Buffet, Abramovic and Mital are all citizens of a state... it must be a grassrot activism from the people, a strong community with the unrelenting will to change! That will do!
the icepack on the world, its genius!
any idea, where the mentioned infrastructur is? i was expecting a more specific outlook..
I would recommend doing it in the most succesful social network nowadays to create real viral effects and grow the community faster. So it'll be Facebook for sure.
For the Wiki and other Social Network Tools I would recommend Confluence, Jive, even Wordpress or Drupal. Build up the content, accesable for everybody and then spread the bits and pieces via Twitter and the Facebook Site (which has of course some fruity FBML Add Ons and Apps)
Should I go On?
:)
;)
Excellent job, an subtitled version will reach more people.
