Guilhem Fouetillou and Anthony Hamelle will tour on the U.S. East Coast in June 2008 to take part in conferences on the future of public media and on netpolitics.
Each year, the Beyond Broadcast conference, held by American University’s Center for Social Media, observes the evolution of social, or participatory, media. This year, the main discussion topic will be "mapping public media". Several angles will be dealt with: How are media makers using online mapping and visualization tools to tell stories and engage communities? What can those same tools tell us about changes in the public media landscape? linkfluence’s intervention will notably focus on the latter.
Prestigious netpolitics and Internet experts gather at the Personal Democracy Forum: Ariana Huffington, Vint Cerf, Joe Trippi, Esther Dyson, Lawrence Lessig, etc. This year, the PDF’s organisers hope to reboot the (political and democratic) system. The impact of new technologies and new social uses on political life and democracy will be analysed under numerous angles. linkfluence shall present the updated version of its Presidential Watch 08 map as well as several case studies on the presence of important campaign issues within communities of the social web.
Come see us in Washington D.C. on June, 17th or in New York City on June, 23rd & 24th!
