S3 Ep6: Artivism in Action

Using the power of art to make a street into a power station

 

How do I make my street into a renewable power station? Speaking with Dan Edelstyn from the Power Project, this episode discusses how people power is fuelling renewable power generation on a street in Walthamstow. In Ann Pettifor’s seminal book, The Case for the Green New Deal, she wrote, “every building a power station”. Filmmaker duo Dan and Hilary have rose to the occasion alongside their community. The pair are capturing the process and using their art both to document the journey, and to compel others to action.
