Future of Social Media - Out Now!

1/10/2023

 
Social media today is not what we originally signed up for, and if you're like me, you're getting itchy for something better...

This interview really underlines the powerful potential the metaverse has to replace the inauthentic, polarising, hyper-normalised, ad-based social media structures we accept today with something that legitimately generates, nurtures, and fosters human connection in a way we haven't yet achieved / experienced in the digital age.

Check out what Daren Tsui, the CEO of one of TIME's 'Most Influential Companies' Together Labs, has to say on the future of social media, dating, 'situationships', the science of friendship, and the significant opportunity we have right now to redefine communication and connection.

AV Week Appearance

12/19/2022

 
Invasive PrivacyIt’s the very last regular show of AVWeek for 2022, but if Bradford Benn is hosting than it’s anything but regular. Either way, we are committed to bringing you the latest news in the commercial side of the AV industry. Joining Bradford this week is Futurist and host of XR Star Amelia Kallman, Kirkegaard Partner & Principal of Integrated Systems Design Bren Walker and AV Solutions Engineer Chrissy Sara.
Occupancy monitors aren’t a new thing, but this article has them in a new light: Students rebel against heat sensing crotch monitor surveillance devices. Yes, you are reading that title right. Northern University students found these devices in off all places the Cybersecurity & Privacy Institute. After finding the sensors, the students removed them and have made something of an art piece out of them. We discuss the way that surveillance has had an impact on AV.
Amazon Studios has opened up a new virtual production stage, along with a new department solely based on virtual productions. This is similar technology to the ones used for Disney shows like The Mandalorian, instead of traditional green screens. For AV, it’s very important since those walls are giant LED screens to display that technology. We look at the future of broadcasting and productions.
Host: Bradford Benn
Guests:
  • Amelia Kallman – Amelia on Linkedin
  • Bren Walker – Kirkegaard
  • Guest3 – Chrissy on Linkedin

  • Hackaday – “crotch monitoring” sensors found in college

  • Make nominations for AVNation’s Best of 2022 Awards!

Such great insights from Nischal Belthan on the future of NFTs and crypto - from what we can expect in 2023, and beyond! As he says, "The genie is out of the bottle," and blockchain technology is turning everything we think we know about finance and ownership on its head, offering us the potential to re-evaluate traditional structures and create a more equitable global society.
