Time Flying By, Not In Seconds but ClicksThinking Digitally

 

Art begins in imitation and ends in innovation

Mason Cooley

And now the media think tank(Media Center) at the University of Minnesota is setting up a framework for discussion on innovation in progress, including the creation of a group who are working and thinking on "tomorrow's Fourth Medium" and ongoing (r)evolution in digital storytelling.
They think the transitional time when a new medium is primarily used to replicate the established medium is playing out.

This is dawn of the connected epoch in human civilization. We are living, you and I, in the first seconds of a society reshaped by empowered individuals connected by digital network, of lives shaped by unprecedented volumes of information and shifting notions of knowledge and trust. Institutions like media and governments are bending under weight of change, of social and economic disruptions to the way people acquire and apply knowledge. New institutions and conventions are taking shape.

, says Andrew Nachison, Director of Media Center.
