In 2011, Knowle West residents and 5 artists worked to identify data that would be useful for the community and explored new and innovative ways to visualise it. Along the way, they also considered how data can be made more open and accessible, how it can be used by communities and what rights people have to the data they generate. As part of this project, Richard Layzell recorded what was bought in local shops as if he were a shop till and worked with pupils at Greenfield Primary School to investigate and record biodiversity data.

Hack A Heckle (HAH) was a social action campaign using the power of music to challenge gender-based harassment in Bristol, UK. The campaign was run by a collective of musicians, creatives and activists aged 18-25, with the support of Bristol-based arts organisation Knowle West Media Centre (KWMC). The members of Hack a Heckle came together during KWMC’s seven-month leadership programme Change Creators: XLR Collective. HAH’s debut album of original music was inspired by the stories, experiences and information they uncovered during their campaign. The collective launched HAH at the Bristol Harbour Festival 2017 and performed at venues across the city. Find out more about the members of HAH and their journey on the Change Creators programme at www.kwmc.org.uk/xlrcollective/ This track includes: Bethany Hamilton Allotey – Content Creator, Vocals Milo Clack – Lead Surveyor/Content Creator, Vocals Molly Perryman - Media Coordinator, Drums William Sissons – Campaign Leader, Bass Guitar Mikey Martelette - Guitar Guitar, bass and drums recorded at dBS College Bristol by Lewis Bradshaw.

KWMC is supported by Bristol City Council and supported using public funding by Arts Council England. At this time, KWMC’s Young People’s Programme was supported by BBC Children in Need. Change Creators: The XLR Collective was supported by Youth Music and using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.

Responding to issues of sharing data in digital spaces, including on social media and to strengthen access to and understanding of data, KWMC ran a series of projects with women and artists. This included the ‘Women, Data and the Future’ project, a collaboration between women living in Knowle West and Merthyr Tydfil, Wales exploring topics including data privacy, understanding personal and ‘big data’, and how big companies use personal data. Several Knowle West women became advocates for much greater care in using Facebook and other social media platforms.
