The Future - When New Media and Social Media Collide This month we hosted the NW Audiovisualist’s (NWAV.org) monthly event in Portland, Oregon to highlight creativity and technology. Below is a summary of the event to spark new ideas that tie into the above notions social + real-time intereractive media.
I believe that we are in a massive cycle of convergence that will re-create the notion of “social media”. Today, social media is more about “social” than “media” because the media production tools are still somewhat fragmented, expensive and hard to integrate quickly. This next year we will see this rapidly change with the launch of the Apple iPad and downward pricing pressure on multimedia laptops, Pico Projectors, HD video cameras and other converging technologies.
Soon we will start to see collaborative music and media production across social networks in real-time. WiMAX wireless broadband penetration and increased broadband over cable and fiber will add velocity to the new “social + digital interactive media” convergence. Multi-Touch screens, computer vision, gestural inputs via FLIR thermal…

Music transcends languages and is one of the most ancient forms of human communication and culture. Even other animals like birds and organic life forms such as plants respond to music. Humans use music to make love and war as a psychological tool.
“In the late 19th century and early 20th century, the music industry was dominated by the publishers of sheet music” - (Wikipedia). Today, music is big business and used by global advertising agencies to create campaigns that target people of all ages. Apple, Google, Microsoft, Sony, News Corp, Disney, Universal, Warner and EMI all have their fingers in the music business.
Since the advent of the internet and the “Napsterization” of music with digital peer-to-peer services, YouTube and portable “iPods”, the music industry is in a rapid state of convergence and change. Search engines and social media “trending” list music as a primary topic and media type that is passed around the planet at the speed of light. Thus, with rapid global changes in social behavior created by new technology and digital connectivity, bands have to react quickly to develop new music business…

I had the pleasure to discuss a real-time internet search venture backed startup called Wowd http://www.wowd.com at Gnomedex 9.0 technology conference in Seattle, WA.
Wowd delivers popular and timely information to users in four ways:
Wowd displays a real-time “Hot List” of popular web pages; Users can search for specific items of interest, and sort search results according to Popularity or Freshness; Wowd generates personalized recommendations for each user, based on that user’s interests; Wowd enables users to do full text search of all public pages that they have seen before, making it extremely easy to find those pages again.

One of the main issues that corporations have today with social media sites such as Twitter is how to scale and manage communications.
I see a lot of similarity for these new tools to develop in the same manner as the multimedia call center technology from firms such as Cosmocom http://www.cosmocom.com . Currently these tools are in their first or second generation of development. Thus, they lack more sophisticated features such as intelligent skills based routing and multi-channel IP communications for “web calls” (chat, voice, video, collaboration).
My past experience tells me that the new “social media” communication systems in the near future will simply become subset features of large integrated CRM’s and IP contact center platforms for unified customer communications. Social media sites are just one of many customer touch points and the key to scale is integration with other corporate customer communications systems. Today, the new solutions are still very basic without much built in artificial intelligence or features to manage multilingual global communications.
The real-time social…

The high growth trends and convergence of social media, web video and real time internet communications tools such as Twitter will create a new demand for real time content producers.
There is an underlying meme for each trend that has a form of “viral energy” associated with the trending topic. For example, Twitter displays a list of “trending” keywords or topics based on text analysis of the real time conversations happening on Twitter. On Monday, there is a trend for posts tagged “#MusicMonday” and this is listed on the right sidebar on Twitter. When you click the link “#MusicMonday” you will see all all posts related to this trending topic. The Twitter community uses the “#MusicMonday” hash tag (adding the # sign in front of a word, makes it unique for searching Twitter) to spread the word about their favorite music. Often, other users with Retweet (RT) their friends #MusicMonday Twitter posts to share this with a new group of Twitter users. This is how messages spread like a rapid virus on Twitter and other social networks. Take a look for yourself for a Twitter search for #MusicMonday http://twitter.com/#search?q=%23musicmonday …
