We recently attended the news:rewired conference organised by Journalism.co.uk and held at City University in London. Above is a short interactive with an analysis of the key speakers from the event and some of their behaviour on Twitter.

On the whole, Drawnalism thinks that anything which brings a closer connection between our senses and what we can do with them through technology is worth investigating.

We thought the following video was worth watching as well, mainly as an example of how touch control is going to offer us a rather better interface to technology. Especially, if you make things with your hands.

We also look forward to a version with a sharp, pointy stick facility for those of us who like them. Yes, we are looking at you Wacom.

Today the influential Techcrunch site published a powerful piece of opinion claiming that hand-made content was dead.
This contention is based on the revolution in dispersal of ’free’ information – and new industrial-scale commercial attempts to make money through a volume provision of data. (Techcrunch cites a firm called Demand Media who are particularly depressing in [...]
Today, the UK government will publish an amendment to its Digital Economy Bill which may allow a great change in the way the law of copyright operates in the UK.
The government amendment to the 1988 Copyright Designs and Patents Act (pdf) gives Ministers the ability to update the 1988 act without bringing new legislation to [...]
