Audience and Tree

Originally uploaded by ConferenceXtra

Today we streamed a conference centred around issues facing rural areas, so depopulation, access to broadband, financial stability.

The most memorable workshop was this one where the speaker used a dead tree to get delegates engaged!

The stream went well, especially since the hotel chosen was appropriately in the middle of the Norfolk countryside, and their broadband connection was initially limited, but we managed to get it boosted!



Us Now

On Tuesday we filmed at the launch of the Us Now documentary, streaming the discussion afterwards live. It’s a great documentary, showing how social interaction via the web is enable groups to become more organised, exchange views and ideas, interact and engage. Definitely worth watching, see the full documentary on their site.



Streaming at the Digital Britain Conference

Last Friday we streamed the Digital Britain conference.

It was a really interesting event, some great speakers. One interesting comment came from Jess Search, Chief Executive, Channel 4 Documentary Film Foundation, who said a recent MORI poll showed that while people valued documentary content almost as highly as fiction content, they were willing to spend only a fraction of their money to watch it.  Another from Lynne Brindley, Chief Executive of British Library, who said that children have vast access to information, but they lack the ability to judge the quality of that data.

The highlight for us, however, was being snapped by Stephen Fry, who posted the shot through his Twitter. You can see us bottom right with the camera.

Norfolk Green Strategy Conference

Today we streamed the Norfolk Green Strategy conference from the King’s Centre in Norfolk, so participants unable to attend in person could still engage with the conference.

Norfolk is under great pressure from global warming, given that even a relatively small rise in sea levels will flood areas of East Anglia.  This pressure is ever increasing since Scientists revise their estimates of how quickly this will happen on a seemingly monthly basis, and not in our favour.

Sometimes, the mounting evidence of how the Earth is really going into meltdown gets overwhelming, so it was inspiring to hear positive ideas of how we can rethink how we live our lives to be have less impact on the environment.

The key moment for me was when asked whose responsibility was it to lead climate change, the room was unanimous that it was our responsibility as individuals to be more environmentally conscious, not something that should be left to government.

The leaf is one of the pledges that attendees made to signify their intention to help address these issues.
