FutureMedia–Outlook 2012

[admin]

The Network Singularity is achieving enormous, global changes. From the Internet of Things to Super Networks, The Network Singularity changes everything. Among the greatest impact is on the future of media, content and collaboration.



FutureMediaSM is new research from the Georgia Institute of Technology on the future of media. It covers the impact on people, business and society over the next five to seven years. It is an engaging look into the future including demonstration clips and video interviews offering real-world examples.

Note: It is a bit of an advertisement for the Georgia Institute of Technology. It is published with the very annoying Nxtbook technology. Still, it’s recommended. 





Six trends will have impact:

• Smart Data: In an increasingly noisy world, we’ll have to sift, filter and be smarter about what matters.
  
• People Platforms: Beyond “true personalization,” they will be socially driven platforms made of algorithms from personal and associated data that people design and tailor themselves.
  
• Content Integrity: Pervasive mobile devices, sprawling networks, clouds ,and multi-layered platforms have made it more difficult to detect and address our digital vulnerabilities, drawing us to trusted content sources.
  
• Nimble Media: Media is evolving from a set of fixed commodities into an energetic, pervasive medium that allows people to navigate across platforms and through different content narratives.
  
• 6th Sense: Extraordinary innovations in mixed reality will change the way we see, hear, taste, touch, smell and make sense of the world — giving us a new and powerful 6th sense.
  
• Collaboration: We will harness the power of many in an increasingly conversational and participatory world.
