Re: Jenny at Renegade Films Re Future Radicals

Barrett Brown is an activist, author, and freelance writer
specializing in information age" issues, most usually associated in
the press with net activism and his past advocacy of Anonymous. His
work has appeared in the Guardian, Vanity Fair, Al Jazeera, Huffington
Post, Skeptic, Skeptical Inquirer, New York Press, American Atheist,
and other outlets. In 2009, Brown began to recruit volunteers for a
distributed think tank called Project PM. After being involved in a
February 2011 incident in which several intelligence contracting firms
led by HBGary Federal were caught planning covert operations against
WikiLeaks and its supporters, including several journalists, Brown
refocused the mission of Project PM to investigate the private
intelligence sector and promote effective opposition to surveillance,
data mining, and advanced disinformation techniques by states and
other institutions. The group's wiki, Echelon2.org, serves as a
repository of little-known data on such issues, much of it gleaned
from e-mails stolen by Anonymous hackers and other nontraditional
sources.

Hello Barrett,

I'm currently working on the Future Radicals program's publicity. As part of
our deliverables to our broadcaster ABC2 we need to provide no more than 250
word biogs on our interviewees. Could you please forward me or direct me to
a current biog for yourself.
Would you also like us to include a link to any of your
articles/books/essays etc in our bibliography section?
Also, would you make yourself available for interviews which arise as a
result of the program? If you're agreeable please let me know what kind of
contact we can release for you to the media?
The documentary is still being edited but I believe the transmission date is
October 2012. I'll let you know when we have a specific TX date.
