Alexander Gnoyke talks about workshop, "Travel 2.0" (edited by Sachin Gaur)

Matthias Luefkens is an Associate Director in charge of digital media at the World Economic Forum and founder of the In Your Pocket city guides .

After having mentioned very shortly the organization of the annual World Economic gathering in Davos, he directly started brainstorming on how the smartphone can become the new backpackers’ bible. His workshop was set up into 3 topics: travel planning, travel on site and the final documentation of your travel.

The 2.5h workshop was attended by an audience of 37 people, most aged around 25 – 35 years, of which almost no one was using offline travel agencies to organize their trips. Nevertheless, 80% of the attendees admitted to have recently bought a printed travel guide.

Amy Baker talks about "The old new media" session.... (edited by Sachin Gaur)

Today’s session, “The Old Media” kicked off with a lecture from Catherine Lottier and Virginia Mouseler where they enlightened the audience on their interesting theory: THE GRAND MASHUP!! They discussed hybrid genres on TV, where television programs can no longer be categorized into one group but rather a fusion of many. They showed us a variety of examples such as The Execution of David Glitter, The District and Mes Cheres Etudes where fiction meets documentary. The District was particularly interesting where President Obama is featured in a reality “The Hills” type show that follows his day-to-day life in the White House. Catherine and Virginia also discussed the emergence of comment culture, where programs like The Daily Show use information or TV news footage to tell a completely different story.

When: Thursday May 6, 2010 , 18:00 (program begins at 18:30), cocktail 21:00
Location: Opposite Lift10 conference center : Conference Centre Varembé (CCV), 9-11 rue de Varembé, Geneva, Switzerland Map
