Dear Apple and Nikon
Nikon shipped their new body-only D7000 DSLR almost two months ago and Apple just released their updated Camera RAW profile so I could actually process the images in Aperture 3. Guys….please talk to each other.
Why wait? You’ve been doing this process for years.
–Thanks for ruining my weekend.
After reading Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die and Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything I have been following the Heath brothers and Don Tapscott’s work online and in the blogosphere. Both have followup books to their initial bestsellers. Its going to be great reading.
Held in Indianapolis in April 2010, The 2010 Intermedia Festival of Telematic Arts held in April was a unique series of events presenting futuristic modes of live telematic and media arts by artists throughout North America and Europe. Telematic art synthesizes performing arts with computers, media and telecommunications. Over 100 artists traveled to Indianapolis while others participated remotely via Internet2.
A combination of art performances including dance, music, visual arts and videography with commentary and discussion were integrated to create a compelling set of experiences. The session included an overview of the multi-institutional activity involving students, faculty, and administrators. Classes of students from Florida State University, Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI), Butler University, University of Calgary, University of Cincinnati and Indiana University Bloomington met in the months prior to the festival in order to plan and rehearse their respective performances online.
This session examined the presentation of telematic art to the general public via Internet2 at the downtown Indianapolis Public Library. This effort involved strategies to intermingle both high and low bandwidth venues into a seamless, integrated performance environment.
