Calling all trespassers!
Pilot is a 4-day autonomous television studio, happening October 8 -11 2004 in Chicago. This event will involve the staging and production of over 50 television shows, performances, lectures, and direct actions, made possible by a diverse body of contributors from all over the country. This resulting video series, of so-called TV "pilots," will be edited and horizontally distributed to all participants, and will be disseminated through public access worldwide.
