Downhill Battle's new project is the Participatory Culture digital video project, a tool that lets you publish, receive and play back video by using BitTorrent, RSS aggregation, and the multi-format video playback engine VLC — all packaged together in an easy-to-use parcel that can be readily used by information civilians.
Tiffiniy Cheng from DHB says,
The Participatory Culture Foundation is having a design contest for our open source RSS reader for video/video player with cash prizes up to $1300. We're offering:
-$1000 for the main interface design
-$300 for an icon or logo
-You can even win $200 for being the person who referred the winner to the site (we'll ask them how they heard about the contest).
(Thanks, Tiffiniy!)
