TV LIKE US is Institute's publication about community, media and art. TV LIKE US brings together artists, researchers and technologists working with community TV.

The texts show that the thing called ‘television' still holds a potent grip on our collective imaginations and that community TV is fast becoming a key player in the changing broadcasting landscape. Community television builds citizenship, tells stories and gives people a voice through DIY participation. From artist TV to open media platforms, TV LIKE US presents cases, methods and ideas behind this lively, local TV culture.

Among the contributions, TV LIKE US includes a specially commissioned look back at TV Swansong (2002) by artist duo Somewhere (Karen Guthrie and Nina Pope), a reflection on acclaimed Liverpool-based community TV channel tenantspin, and ‘how to' guides on open formats and workshop methods from initaitives such as M2HZ (Helsinki), Dublin Community TV (Dublin), Deptford.TV (London) and #media2012 (London).
