Outline of main sequence ( version mid April )

Now confirmed the Standup Philosopher at about 2pm ( visiting from Story Telling in the Workshop)
He will include a take on Maths as it is taught in schools, influence of universities on the requirements. Also as previously the dilemmas around theory and practice.

Central section also includes Mindfulness / Compassion. No speaker confirmed but sound and video available.

The two hours before this mostly about performance and promotion, radio and whatever else it becomes. So radio can play a free CD. Do performers welcome fan video. Is funded video available? How to promote it?  Case study around Black Tabs from Austin, Texas. So far we know they prefer vinyl to CD. Why? ( Not the tech future expected btw) Possibly someone from label present but other guests welcome, performers and presenters.

Also role of print in promotion. Can social media be effective on a smaller budget? How to combine? Promo of #tags in print. Probable speaker but no confirmed time.

Community Radio Regional Conference in cinema ends about 4 so soon after this some may join. So scope can shift to organisation level, not just operations. Not sure how much open discussion is possible on current issues but may include digital disruption, end of FM etc. Meanwhile a visit to Seale Hayne is planned to propose they change to cope with vinyl. Report will be available.

Much technology to consider. See posts on the PopUp Centre for Performance, Bar Management and Camera Studies. Continues on Facebook. Mostly about forms of camera. Strong chance that info available on Verse from Padcaster. No timings for this, just pops up.

Must end at 6 but may continue in bar as some problem situations are not easy to make public.
Else assumed ok for broadcast. Sound and video recording, trials of streaming.

============

Management Theory also pops up. Loop of description of the first two Management Theory at Work events. Learning Company / Organization as described around turn of century updated for tech. Compare situation of sound / music / radio with campus / MOOC / academic publishing. this could get to be a large topic so some will carry over to a future event without the radio focus. ( Situation with Futurelearn and OU is enough of a news item to take a whole day but will be considered briefly just to explore the comparison with radio / sound )
