As much as Google’s membership gains the biggest headlines (great by the way) and gets the biggest buzz, I believe OSTN‘s membership will be a very important benefit for college students around the country (especially at MIAD) studying and producing video. Exciting times indeed for the production and distribution of film/video for education.

Internet2 – Shedd Aquarium
The meeting’s Gala Event reception took place Wednesday night at Chicago’s world-class Shedd Aquarium. It was a great event. Some panoramic VRs to follow….when I find time.

Fall 2006 Internet2 Member Meeting
Performing Arts Advisory Group (Invitation Only)
December 06, 2006, 11:45 AM – 1:15 PM
Location: CC23 A
A lot of big news in this session. The one that will capture the imagination of many — the London Symphony Orchestra is now connecting to Ukrena, Europe’s Internet2 and available for new educational and performance based events.
Cleveland is really out in front with a group of performing arts events. The Cleveland Ingenuity Festival has brought many Arts groups together. Milwaukee could benefit from this group, especially with the international film festivals.
NYSERNet is building “Manhattan connects” while Notre Dame is broadcasting theatre performances over Internet2 in China and Italy. This was refreshing to hear and really a call for inspiration.

Fall 2006 Internet2 Member Meeting
Internet2 OSTN Film Festival
December 06, 2006, 7:30 AM – 8:45 AM
Location: CC21 C
The Open Student Television Network OSTN is now an Internet2 affiliate just this week.
This was a great session..and a standing room audience.
This will be a great opportunity for students (as access to tools continues to climb yet pricing continues to drop) opening the door to more and more student artists. This is for the BFA seeking student, not the professional film maker.
Wisconsin is really the great Midwest film resource with the Milwaukee International Film Festival, Madison’s Wisconsin Film Festival. Milwaukee also hosts the European MediaArts Film Festival at MIAD.
