Invitation to The Innovation Workshop 2010:
“The digitization creates headache for some – for others it creates unpresidented market oportunities. It all depends on what way one choose to look….”
The goal for this workshop is to bring us up to date on what is happening in the area of digital content distribution, to help the industry to see new market oportunities and to equip the con- tent creators to seize them! We are inviting key people within film, gaming and distibution industries in Southern Norway and Denmark, as well as Latvia and Germany, to join with us for one full day of learning and trying to look into the future together.
The speakers:
Asta Wellejus is a dynamic woman with years of experience from both film and gaming industry. Recent years she has been preocupied with projects in the border line between conventional film and gaming. She is an insight- ful and inspirational speaker that emphasizes the importance of bringing tecnology and human interaction closer together.
Reidar Jortveit is a purist when it comes to digital content. Even in his childhood he had the urge to pick apart devices to understand how they work. Later in life he has been trying to understand the coherrence between tecno- logical innovation and end user dynamics. He has a background as an entrepreneur and developer of interactive role plays and educational programs.
This workshop is a cooperation between the Southern Norwegian association for the digital content makers Digin, The film cluster Filmby Århus, Alexandra Institute in Århus and the Cross Media cluster in Jutland, Denmark and First Motion, a project within the Baltic Sea Region Interreg program of European Union.

I forbindelse med First Motion projektet, hvor Alexandra Instituttet er med som partner, afholdes der en 2dages-workshop i Tallinn, Estland d. 26-27. marts og emnet vil være “Educational challence: Innovation in creatives industries”.
What are the specifics of innovation phenomena for the modern content industries operating in the evolving cross-media environment? What are the relations between ‘innovation’ and ‘creativity’ in these fields? How should ‘innovation’ be taught to the future professionals of these industries?
These are some of the questions that the academic workshop “Educational challenge: innovation in creative industries” will aim to investigate. The workshop is part of a larger initiative, the EU project “First Motion”, (Baltic Sea Region Programme 2007-2013) that is undertaken in the Baltic Sea Region to define the new challenges and prospects for the regional AV-industries in times of media convergence.

Gennem de sidste 10 år har it-byen dannet ramme om samarbejde mellem kunstnere, industrielle designere og it-forskere fra både de tekniske og humanistiske områder. De mange projekter har resulteret i spektakulære og nyskabende løsninger, der har integreret it i fysiske omgivelser, f.eks. i skoler, museer og møbler. Projekterne afspejler en generel tendens: når der kommer it i alting bliver design og æstetik vigtigere end nogensinde.
Sidste år lavede jeg en oversigt som samler mange af projekterne – du kan downloade den her.
