New Show: Redoing Media
From paperback to Kindle, VHF to TiVo – the way we use media has radically changed over the last few years.
Your mother even has a Netflix account now, while your kids can’t remember a day when you read a paper newspaper. And plenty of people here in PDX are creating without reading a rulebook – in ways that make the old guard shake in their boots.
Who’s now redoing media as we know it here in PDX? What trends should we be paying attention to? Why does it even matter?
I’m Betsy Richter, and I’ve spent years dabbling around the edges of both traditional & new media. I’m an early adopter who’s managed to retain a healthy dose of realism (I think it’s an age thing, frankly). But more importantly, I’ve always been a voracious media consumer – one who sees trends, teachings and/or train wrecks in the experiments to date. And I’m ballsy enough by now to think that I might be able to lead a conversation about just where this whole “media circus” is heading.
