From Book to Field — The Cell Phone Sovereignty Workshop
The Media Company in a Box framework is not theory. It was deployed live to creators in Cameroon and a global online audience through a five-hour workshop taught by Joshua T. Berglan in his role as Tah-Lah of Bafut Kingdom.
The training was built for real conditions: limited data, inconsistent electricity, few laptops, and people who needed a way to create from what they already had. That is why the phone-first path matters.
