Lots happening tomorrow, just cut and pasted this to tempt you'all.


Sunday 6th November
  • 11am Tent City University at St Paul’s – ‘Reflections: a media perspective’ - Three weeks into the occupation, deputy comment editor of the Guardian, Libby Brooks and special correspondent Audrey Gillan review mainstream media coverage of the occupation, reflecting on the challenges the movement faces in terms of courting positive media attention as well as the challenges the media face in reporting about a networked global movement that operates in an unorthodox way and cannot be defined in simple soundbites. There will also be other invited journalists
  • 1pm – General assembly - This is the forum through which members of the camp update the rest of the camp, make decisions through consensus voting. Members of the public are welcome to get involved
  • 2pm – 5pm – Cut cut copy shop for a new wor(l)d order at TCU - Delaina Haslam and Vyvian Raoul encourage word fans to come down and take part in this conceptual writing experiment.

Bring: a text of your choice connected in some way to OccupyLSX or the larger occupy movement
