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…

From from 2001 to 2005 John Cook was always on my press list for Venture All Stars and Investment Forum events. Well almost always on the list, accept or the private investor pitch events where zero press were allowed due to SEC regulations.
This year I caught back up with John as he was the host for the WTIA 2010 Predictions event (I produce WTIA TV). A few weeks later at the DEMO Innovation Meet-up in Seattle, John and I decided to shot an impromptu video interview with VC and angel investor guests. Since we both travel in the same circles John invited me to collaborate to shoot TechFlash’s 1st Anniversary Party and Trival Challenge.
For the project, it was clear that TechFlash needed a birthday gift. I created a new “corporate imaging package for TechFlash that included custom branded motion graphics package with sound effects. This was used for the intros and outtros for each video. At the event Colin Christianson and I setup both a live stream and HD video studio used to interview guests at the even to tell their stories and the 2010 Outlook.

Us humans are “visual beings” and we love eye candy. That is why the news has a million scrolling text items, motion graphics and more just to keep our attention to watch the next block of commercials. We are entering a new wave of digital visual communication that merges uses real-time video software to create art in the form of a spectacle. The new technology and creativity no doubt will be harvested by global ad agencies and small creative “guerrilla / viral marketing” shops to digitally paint buildings with subliminal branding. Then the specticals will be video taped and packaged as video clips for viral web distribution across social media.
Here are a few extremely cool examples showing new digital video techniques that leverage real-time feedback systems, mapping video to surfaces and other to create a new wave of visual stimulation. The examples were curated by Peter Kirn at Create Digital Motion http://createdigitalmotion.com/ one of the top visualists blogs on the planet.

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 …
