Patrica Clough interviewed at a recent conference at the New School, NY. The interview is a bit of a hot-air rant that lacks any form of evidence, but there are some good ideas buried in there. Thanks to Trebor S for the link

(Transcript below if you can’t follow my polemical prose; and sorry but the synchronisation in this clip has a mind of its own).
I attended the Oxford Social Media Convention 2009 on Friday (18 September) at the Said Business School. The theme of the Convention was ‘assessing the evolution, impact and potential of social media’; a fairly monumental tasks for a one day convention with speakers from both sides of the Atlantic and from the Academy, business, media, and politics. The Convention was ordered around panel discussion with a lot of participation from the audience. At times subversive and always humorous ‘tweets’ from the audience were also projected on the wall behind the speakers (we voted to do this earlier in the day).
Rather than divide my time between all the speakers, I will concentrate on two of the most distinctive speakers that hopefully convey the timbre of the conference. The first speaker is Mathew Hindman, an academic at the University of Phoenix and author of the recently published ‘The Myth of Digital Democracy (Princeton University Press; 2009). The other speaker I will discuss is Kara Swisher, the Technology Correspondent for the Wall Street Journal. Read the rest of this entry »

The gay marriage debate is complex and I am not sure if the institution of marriage is the end point of gay liberation. Some black people want to be white, some females want to be male, some gay people would prefer to be normalised. Feminism in the ’80s looked very corporate, gay lib in the naughties looks a bit too straight for this young man!

This movie (thanks to James C for the link), made my long-weekend. It is all about context; placing reductive observations about the world in a greater context so as to add to their beauty. You could also apply this to social and cultural phenomena; being able to place fellow humans in a empathetic cultural contexts, beyond the reductive world of consumer choice and taste. The beauty of the Digital Humanities is that the digital exits within the beauty of the human condition.

OK, I have started my ‘morning coffee with Craig’ series again. Similar format and similar theme to the previous ones, but I promise something fresher soon. Here I talk about ‘globalism’ and the recent protests during the G20 meeting here in London. It is similar to another video diary; number 4 in this series when the G20 met in Melbourne in 2006.
I have experimented with YouTube’s new annotation system on this video so feel free to annotate it (but please be kind) (link)

Here is footage of a Ian Tomlinson, the man who died at the G20 protests, being attacked by police. Moments after the attack, he collapsed and died of a heart attack. The Guardian newspaper has submitted a dossier of evidence including this video and eye witness reports to the Independent Police Complaints Commission . (link to report and video).
There will be an assemble in response to his death we assemble Bethnal Green Police Station Saturday 11th April 11.30am
Ian Tomlinson, the man who died at last week’s G20 protests in London, was attacked from behind and thrown to the ground by a baton-wielding police officer in riot gear, dramatic footage obtained by the Guardian shows.
The Guardian is preparing to hand a dossier of evidence to the police complaints watchdog. It sheds fresh light on the events surrounding the death of the 47-year-old newspaper seller, who had been on his way home from work when he was confronted by lines of riot police near the Bank of England (link).
