| Media, Entertainment and Technology insights from The X|Media|Lab, Melbourne | | Date Created: 15 Aug, 2006, 09:16 AM |
 The media world is in upheaval as phenomena such a user-generated content, piracy and location-aware mobile distribution both create and destroy opportunities for content aggregators and original content creators. The X|Media Lab, brainchild of Australian Brendan Harkin, periodically brings together thought leaders from around the world to exchange views about the nature and pace of change. They also mentor new projects, bringing technological, business and creative perspectives to people who are trying to refract a new idea through the new business models. Netvideo visited the latest X|Media Lab and asked 17 people - both mentors and project heads - to sum up on camera in five minutes what they had brought to and taken from the event. These seventeen interviews, comprise 1.5 hours of insights, tips and polemics.
