Radio2.0 – part 2

The update of my radio2.0 post:

A study by Arbitron/Edison Media Research finds that the weekly Internet radio audience has increased 50% over the last year. Twelve percent of Americans age 12+ have listened to Internet radio in the past week, a 50% increase over the 2005 estimate of 8%.

Nearly one in five 18- to 34-year-olds listened to Internet radio in the last week. Nineteen percent of Americans age 18-34 listen to Internet radio during an average week. Internet radio delivers 16% of persons in the prime 18-49 radio buying demo.

However, just 19% of those online have ever listened online to their most listened to AM/FM radio station. While this number is a record high, up from 15% the previous year, it shows the continued lack of usage of Internet streaming as a way to increase a station’s reach.

Co-Chair: WiscNet Internet2 K20 WorkingGroup

I’m a new co-chair for WiscNet’s Internet2 K20 WorkingGroup. This past week I was in Madison at Frank Lloyd Wright’s Monona Terrace during WiscNet’s Future Technologies Conference. Very impressed with the program: two days of networking (people) and sessions regarding networking (fiber cables) in Wisconsin and focusing on Milwaukee.

As you may be aware Internet2 connects the best research projects at leading institutions around the country. One of their programs is the K20 project, bringing Internet2 members and K12 schools together — especially Museums — in sharing new technologies, applications, and content to discuss the concept of the use of Internet2 in education, explore advanced applications that utilize advanced networks.
Internet2-k20On a personal note:  Since the beginning of Internet2 my experiences at the University of Chicago and Marquette all projects focused on pure scientific research. Today Internet2 has grown to embrace the Arts. I believe these developments from the conference will benefit MIAD as we continue to embrace a faster, more robust internet for Art education.

Internet2 proves a powerful thing: when you watch live HD video streaming from a coral reef in Sydney Australia as you overlook Lake Monona…you feel small.
