Podcast, video , radio

A development in BBC take on radio. As reported in Guardian there is a move to podcasts, mostly aimed at people aged under 35. So far not much mention of video, though Radio 1 spoke a lot about "visual radio" when visiting Exeter a couple of years ago.

“If we don’t do anything over the next 10 years you’ll have a two-speed BBC radio audience,” says James Purnell, the man tasked with turning this around. “People who’d grown up with it and people who didn’t.”

Not sure what this means. Seems the radio audience will be mostly listening on something else. There will be people in ten years time who have not listened much to FM, my guess.

Other guess well possible. I am 70 so way outside the target. Recently managed to sign up for a unique ID on iPlayer. So far just means I get adverts for Dr Who before I can watch the Papers review. Never used to happen. I watch Dr Who anyway.

Meanwhile Phonic FM may be doing more with podcasts, YouTube or whatever. I am coming in early for the Wild Show on a Thursday morning so cover the Drama Hour. The Storyteller is in France for a couple of months but is uploading to YouTube so I can play the sound. Probably next week for the latest as I have found Deep Impact in backlist , this fits better with ambient electronica, important this week to promote Phonic benefit.

Experiments continue around the #AmbientElectronica tag. I will try to video something but phone clips will also appear. Also content may turn up in another place or from another time.

Mode 1 knowledge again , hello @charlesmenzies @arichardson_phi

Things get lost on Twitter, there is much stuff all the time so here is another go at finding Charles Menzies and Alan Richardson. This started with a slide on Mode1 and Mode2 knowledge and a comment that I can no longer find.

It may be that there is another definition of Mode 1 that is still in use. My impression is that the flow of publications has stopped in recent years. Not sure when or why. I am trying to catch up on what academics make of things ahead of an event mixing theory and practice. More on this later.

Meanwhile, what is meant recently when academics describe something as Mode 1 knowledge ?

Couple of tweets as clues maybe. There is some form of knowledge outside the campus that is not quite right.

Lancaster Spine, Mode One Knowledge, ISO 9000 again

Video now uploaded from walk along Spine on Lancaster Campus. Almost complete so could be used as location for a walk with stops for discussion.

Next Spring could be a time for a walk and / or other events. Sunshine required for video to work, no budget for lighting. Also there can be wind and rain, hard to predict. Meanwhile green screen possible.

I have started to look back on some topics through Twitter, starting with  knowledge in Mode 1 and Mode 2 . Have found a few links including my own from previously, this from Cloudworks.

From this one I am not sure how the terms are being used.

There was a comment I cannot find at the moment from Alan Richardson. Hope to find more soon.

I cannot find much recent on this but guess similar discussion continues about knowledge, maybe not using Mode 1 and Mode 2 as terms. The campus is part of this as compared to online. How to blend? The university has some problem situations to sort out so is not outside Mode 2. I follow Peter Scott in the Guardian on education. Recently there is not much about the MOOC except to place it as mostly coming from a commercial base. How to describe this? Any links please.

Previously at Lancaster I have spoken about ISO 9000 and there is an event about this in December at the CQI in London. Now fully booked but I expect topics to continue early next year. The morning will be on Deming and leadership, the afternoon on statistical techniques. There may not be time for much psychology so aspects around management learning could need more time.

Blended Reality in Kendal

Comics continue year round. Kendal strong on graphics anyway.

Blended Reality in Lancaster

My reality seems to be headed online around possible chat shows or ways of linking bits of video. Still mostly in Exeter but trade shows exist more outside time of actual display.

There may be other face to face events connected to Lancaster during the next year or so but main news is that the Spine is mostly completed. Just a stretch near Engineering still to do. so this is a location for more academic content. ( compares with city centre anyway, still a mix) More later, just catching up.

Kendal Comics

Will look for shows in the Museum and the College nearby.

Brewery Arts Centre has no radio as in Phonic FM at Phoenix in Exeter. Possible study of how this works for sound. There are podcasts but not sure how to find them.

Blended Reality

Heard about this through HP at Print Show. Still making sense, maybe as I spend time both in Kendal and Exeter. I have a virtual awareness of both places. Also London and other places and times. Events such as trade shows also in mind. ( Still not much idea about Birmingham though, the NEC is on a loop round the outside, that is about all I know).

From Kendal on M6 to Lancaster park and ride to campus. Still the location for how to think about tech and learning. Walk from InfoLab to Management to Library square to Arts. Recently finding similar spaces in Exeter. The city centre was site for Like Minds, using several cafes etc for meetings between the presentations. I still check out the campus some times but it seems distant. St Lukes used to study Telematics but I have lost track of what they do.

So some video to show routes in Exeter, will try them again over next few months.

Cafe 55 not part of the official LikeMinds event but very close to the church that doubles as a conference centre. Meeting topics include radio, Wild Show with Chris Norton for example. More on this later.

Like Minds included mention of a Digital Marketing University. Launch in India fairly soon, UK later. So for UK probably not in any particular place.
