In an era of increasing information pollution, The SilenceBreaker aims to offer a breath of fresh air by saying the quiet things loud, with perspectives you rarely hear from the clickbait media of the capitalist class, clout chasers and conspiracy theorists.
The origins of media activist Jay Baker’s SilenceBreaker project can be traced back to the turn of the millennium. Since that time, it has utilised many multimedia forms — from fiction and non-fiction films, to video and tech workshops, to articles online as well as occasionally offline as a printed zine doing the rounds underground — all under various structures and with a variety of occasional collaborators on two continents.
Baker ended up being listed as an enemy on the fascist website Redwatch; videos have been held to ransom, web domains have been seized, and sites have been hacked — yet The SilenceBreaker has somehow endured. Here, on a subdomain of Jay’s own site, you can find access to some of the rescued content, and still buy back-issues as a zine, listen to more recent editions as a podcast, or view the video archives. You can also read about the limitations of electoral politics and the contradictions of state socialism (documented through the articles) and how you can utilise media to help make the world a better place.
