Can pranks be political statements? What role does humor play in encouraging social change? Where do hoaxes exist on the true/false spectrum? You may not walk away with any of the answers, but you won't want to miss this panel that brings together some of the smartest and most contentious people in independent media. With outspoken pranksters Mark Hosler (Negativland) and Scott Beiben (Lost Film Festival) as well as directors Sarah Price (The Yes Men), Kevin Willmott (Confederate States of America) and Mark Achbar (The Corporation), moderator Dara Greenwald (Video Data Bank, The Pink Bloque) will definitely have her hands full.

Both the Saturday and Sunday seminars are free and open to the public.
