David Weinberger
Media in a Miscellaneous World
Did you know that our most fundamental principles for managing information and knowledge are based on old assumptions? This year’s opening keynote presents new perspectives for the digital era.
SPEAKER: David Weinberger (US), PhD & writer, Harvard Berkman Center for Internet & Society
MODERATOR: Mads Brügger (DK), journalist & television host, DR
The digital world of today has challenged the basic principles of media business. Previously, they depended on the limitations of the physical world: That there was a right way to order things and that the people who own stuff also control how it is organized. Now that we are rapidly digitizing information of every sort, we’re inventing new principles of organization. This leads to decisive changes in the media industries that used to have authority and power because of their mastery of the old principles.
In this talk, Dr. David Weinberger will look at the digital revolution and change: not just the old order of things, but the very nature of order itself, and what this means for business.
