Religion, ethics and crowd behaviour!

Tuesday, July 27th, 2010

 

A quick follow up on a few things we’ve mentioned on the show recently.

As part of our recent program about ‘dark tourism’ we interviewed Scott Stephens, the Editor of the ABC’s new online religion and ethics portal. Since we spoke to Scott that portal has launched. You can find a range of opinion pieces, features and highlights from recent ABC programs.

In March we did an interview with Dan Hill, part of an international team of designers involved with a futuristic project called The Cloud. Our sister program The Night Air recently used some of that interview as part of a feature called ‘What the Flock?‘, which looked at group dynamics, crowd behaviour and herding.

That’s all the links for now!

No yawns, so I must have been good

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

 

Antony here… I gave a lecture to students at La Trobe this week re our Generation F project. Hard to judge these things, but the fact that no one yawned has to be good.

Lawrie Zion (ex JJJ and The Australian) is my co-conspirator. He’s in charge of the journalism programme at La Trobe.

Will give more details on Generation F when things move along a bit.

If you want to listen to the audio of my presentation it’s here.

A follow-up to the story we brought you last year about ICANN’s decision to allow web addresses in non-latin based script.  Here’s the original story.

NOTE: ICANN – Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers.
