About Freedom Ball

Freedom Ball questions whether the Hong Kong government controls the use of public space for the benefit of Hong Kong people.

We do this through simple and striking interventions in public spaces which encourage the public to engage directly with activities which are currently banned in the space.

The principles of our interventions are that they challenge the rules in a way that is positive and engaging and encourage the public to join in actively.

Our aim is to change the way that public spaces are managed, designed and controlled so that they meet the needs of Hong Kong people.

自由波向政府質疑: 政府控制公共空間的使用是否有利於公眾利益。

我們通過在公共场所舉辮一些簡單而又引起大家矚目的行動:鼓勵公眾直接參與一些仍然被禁的活動。

這些行動的宗旨就是: 大家用正面而又有趣的形式鼓勵公眾積極投入這類活動，挑戰僵化規條。

我們的目的在於改變公共空間的設計和管理模式, 最終能符合香港市民的需要。

Freedom Ball on TV

There will be another Freedom Ball intervention this weekend, on Saturday afternoon so if you're interested in getting involved then let me know. It's been organised at short notice because RTHK would like to film a Freedom Ball activity in time to show it on their arts and culture program 'The Works' on Tuesday (7pm). Exact time and venue to be confirmed shortly - watch this space!

自由波行動上電视
本周未又一個自由波事件簿: 　星期六九龍公園約定你。時間倉促，只因RTHK計劃於下星期二（７點）在藝術及文化峰烟節目'The Works'播出。具体時間再行通知。
