Public Broadcast Cart is a shopping cart outfitted with a dynamic microphone, a mixer, an amplifier, six speakers, a mini-FM transmitter, and a laptop with a wireless card. The audio captured by the microphone on the cart is fed through the mixer to three different broadcast sources. The laptop sends the audio to the thing.net's server from which the audio is broadcast on line at http://radio.thing.net. The Public Broadcast Cart is designed to enable any pedestrian to become an active producer of a radio broadcast. The cart reverses the usual role of the public from audience to producer of a radio broadcast and online content.

Privately Owned Public Spaces: Brendan and Patrick FitzGerald
Brendan and Patrick FitzGerald will perform walking tours of the neighborhood north of Exit Art in which they discuss New York City zoning laws intended to provide public space within privately owned developments and how/why the building owners often ignore them entirely. In creating Privately-Owned Public Spaces walking tours, the FitzGeralds’ were inspired by their research into the development laws in New York City and their discovery of the complex relationship between what is considered to be public and private space.
