Creative Societies in Paradigm Shift

Curating last week’s Creative Industries Styria Convention 2010 in Graz – staged by cis.at – allowed me to meet with some great minds and to reflect on this phase of paradigm shift in the creative industries currently under way.

Workshop Opening

The event brought two days full of inspiring input and experiences: Three workshops on Creative Semantic Web, Design Commons and Cloud Creativity, led by Steve Rogers from Google, Andrea Goetzke from New Thinking and David Sasaki from Global Voices. Followed by an evening with Science Fiction writer and activist Cory Doctorow. More on the results of the Convention as soon as the documentation is complete.
