Howdy friends!
A quick 'hello' from Paris this week. I'm on my way home to my family in Germany, and Paris is (kinda) on the way there.
I had a great time at the very first IAM conference in Barcelona this past weekend. The goal of the event was to highlight and celebrate how the Internet affects and reshapes the media landscape, but also how, as a result it helps connect real people from all kinds of unexpected places. Of course, Offscreen
fits right in there and based on the feedback I received about my talk, people in the audience really enjoyed seeing that older media types (e.g. print) are still going strong, not despite but because of the Internet. But the conference also triggered some critical thoughts on mixing creative content with commercial incentives.
Anyway, it's also been a very exhausting weekend, and so I'm gonna leave you with a great article on getting started with meditation (in the hope that I finally adhere to a more regular schedule myself).
