The event is open to the public, and free for students with ID (from all schools) . APRIL 5TH MEDIA PANEL AT THE NEW SCHOOL http://www.generalstudies.newschool.edu/02_special.htm Journalism: Media Perspectives of a Global Generation Wednesday, April 5, 6:00 p.m., $8. Webcast and online discussion at www.online.newschool.edu. Students free. Location: Theresa Lang Community and Student Center, 55 West 13th Street, 2nd floor. As the news industry faces unprecedented change, this panel explores how 21st-century technology and human migration complicate and enrich the media landscape. Journalism's future is seen through three key questions: How will the generation gap between print traditionalists and new media pioneers play out in the future of worldwide news collection, distribution, and consumption? Why does the shrinking distance between the "local" and the "global" require more cross-cultural insight in U.S. newsrooms? What happens in a world where news and commentary are regularly unhinged from fixed locales, where one can read, listen to, or watch media from any part of the world while in any part of the world? A panel of journalists from mainstream, ethnic, and international outlets discusses how answers to these questions influence story ideas, news content, reportorial and editorial worldviews, and audiences. Moderated by Corey Takahashi, freelance journalist (Newsday, VIBE, Public Radio International); guest journalists: blogger, reporter, and journalism instructor Doug McGill (The McGill Report, The Glocalist, former staff reporter for The New York Times, and former Tokyo, London, and Hong Kong bureau chief for Bloomberg News); Teru Kuwayama, documentary photographer whose recent work has focused on Asia and the Middle East (Time, Newsweek, Fortune, Outside); journalist Anupreeta Das (The Christian Science Monitor, former New Delhi-based staff writer for the national Indian publications Outlook magazine and The Indian Express). Co-sponsored by the Wolfson Center for National Affairs and the Department of Media Studies and Film. Tickets: Unless otherwise indicated, tickets can be purchased by phone with a credit card (212.229.5488) or in person at The New School Box Office, 66 West 12th St., main floor, Mon.-Thurs., 1:00-8:00 p.m., and Fri., 1:00-7:00 p.m. Inquiries can be sent to boxoffice@newschool.edu.

Discussion was way more lightweight than I'd hoped. Anyway, your photos were amazing, and really made the event worthwhile.

If you (others) missed it, check it out via the webcast (as detailed in original posting). I believe the webcast remains available for a bit after the date of the event. The audio's a little fuzzy, but stepping away from my computer's speakers made it easier to understand. --Retsu Mon, 10 Apr 2006 22:21:12 +0000 http://www.lightstalkers.org/journalism:-media-perspectives-of-a-global-generation-20060403#20538 Teru, will you be speaking or showing any exhibits of your work in NYC anytime soon? -J Tue, 11 Apr 2006 00:19:26 +0000 http://www.lightstalkers.org/journalism:-media-perspectives-of-a-global-generation-20060403#20544 heyo . still not sure what exactly I was doing there, but thanks. no idea on future talking/showing, but there's currently an exhibition of Alexia Foundation photographers at the United Nations visitors center in NYC - I think it's up for another couple of weeks.
