The rapidly changing world of media production and
consumption is creating some major changes in the way that we as
a society find our information and entertainment.
This is a Broadcast conference
In a convergent society technology is removing the concept of
reaching a mass audience through the single platform of
television.
New digital platforms create new opportunities and audiences
are now more likely to be communities of interest, communities
which increasingly bypass traditional media outlets all together
and create their own networks and realities.
The first conference to really explore this phenomenon will be
held later in the month in Bristol. Produced by Broadcast in
association with Watershed and South West Screen, Digital
Communities 06 will ask how new types of communities are shaping
and informing the development of media and communication.
With a range of topics from Local TV and mobile media to DIY
distribution and multi-player gaming being discussed by experts
from within the media industry and beyond, Digital Communities
06 will seek to shed light on the changes, both informing and
debating the complexities of the digital future.
