SUMMARY:Information Session: Innovation Challenge in Journalism\, Media and Technology
DESCRIPTION:Supporting the creation of new content\, new forms of participation in journalism\, contributions to our understanding of media and society. \nJoin us for the first information session for our inaugural Innovation Challenge in journalism media and technology! \nRegister at Eventbrite \nTechnology shapes our media\, inventing new ways for us to share information and learn about the world. The Brown Institute Innovation Challenge in Journalism\, Media\, and Technology aims to support ventures creating new content\, designing new forms of participation\, contributing to our understanding of media and society\, or experimenting with entirely new ways to communicate. Successful projects can be either for-profit or non-profit ventures — The Brown Institute is as concerned with business successes as with sustainable social impacts. \nBrown encourages proposals for new tech-based or tech-enabled forms of media — these might make novel uses of computer vision\, AI\, NLP\, machine learning\, data visualization or even VR/AR to create\, communicate\, and interpret content. Eligible ventures can also be topically aligned\, building custom platforms to explore complex issues in new ways. What are the long-term societal impacts of COVID? Are communities equally prepared for Climate Change? How can we spot or intervene with mis/disinformation? (To be successful\, a topically-oriented application must have a plan for sustainability\, as this challenge is meant to support new ventures and not to produce a single published news story.)

SUMMARY:Points Unknown - Session I (Spring)
DESCRIPTION:News unfolds in places and every newsworthy event is shaped by the details of location. Those details might include the specifics of a neighborhood as it is today or of the history leading to its current configurations. Alongside the development of web technologies\, journalistic organizations have incorporated web-based maps to enhance reader engagement with stories. But these interactions haven’t always been easy to produce. Points Unknown will train journalism students in GIS and mapping techniques to analyze and visualize spatial information. \nFor Points Unknown: Session I (Spring)\, students will be provided an overview of spatial data and what constitutes a map. Following a presentation on concepts\, we will introduce the software we will use throughout the spring module (QGIS)\, and begin by making a basic map. \nRegister to Attend

SUMMARY:Anger + Hope - The founding of NPR and lessons for the future of public media
DESCRIPTION:RSVP here – Streaming at ohyay.co/s/npr\nBill Siemering is a radio visionary. Sixty years ago\, Siemering was hired to transform WBFO from a student-run college radio club into a professional station. Because of the experiments in radio that he led at WBFO throughout the 1960s\, Siemering was invited to serve on the first board of what would become National Public Radio. He was also invited to write the original mission statement of NPR—while he was still working in Buffalo. Siemering went on to help create NPR’s flagship program\, All Things Considered and also what we know today as Fresh Air. Fifty years later\, Siemering is still passionate about the power of radio\, now doing much of his work in the developing world. \nNationally renowned broadcast journalist Susan Stamberg is a special correspondent for NPR. Stamberg is the first woman to anchor a national nightly news program\, and has won every major award in broadcasting. She has been inducted into the Broadcasting Hall of Fame and the Radio Hall of Fame. An NPR “founding mother\,” Stamberg has been on staff since the network began in 1971. Beginning in 1972\, Stamberg served as co-host of NPR’s award-winning newsmagazine All Things Considered for 14 years. She then hosted Weekend Edition Sunday\, and now reports on cultural issues for Morning Edition and Weekend Edition Saturday.
