Counterpoint is launching Cloud Culture: the future of global cultural relations at the ICA, with a panel debate and evening of discussion on the vast creative and collaborative possibilities of Cloud Culture.

The panel debating this crucial issue will be:
Catherine Fieschi (Director of Counterpoint)
Charles Leadbeater (leading thinker on innovation and creativity)
Ekow Eshun (Artistic Director of the ICA)
Paul Hilder (Campaign Director of Avaaz.org)
and Lloyd Davis (founder of the Tuttle Club)

Should be an interesting night based on the panel #cloudculture
I'm at the #cloudculture session.
tweeting from counterpoint's #cloudculture event. interested in what Catherine Fieschi is working on
#cloudculture: Who owns the version of us that lives online, made up of half truths and semi facts? Our online self is not quite us.
#cloudculture event kicking off at the ICA *waves at @edent @billt @debbiedavies @joannejacobs etc* :)
made it to the ICA for #cloudculture just in time!!
Catherine: Director of Counterpoint - she wants to set the scene. It's about looking at the 'shape' of cultural relations in the 21st Century.
The Web and Cloud computing are having a big impact - but is it a natural area for the British Council?
by brian_condon at 2/8/2010 6:11:47 PM
"It's about Cloud Culture" - what are the impacts and how will it happen - we need to explore how the changes to technology are impacting cultural artifacts.
by brian_condon at 2/8/2010 6:12:29 PM
The relationships we build, our culture, and how we relate to people across the world are being fundamentally changed.
by brian_condon at 2/8/2010 6:12:58 PM
It's also an acknowledgement that how we think about ourselves and culture is being changed.
by brian_condon at 2/8/2010 6:13:27 PM
what is cloud culture? what impacts will cloud computing have on culture, data and relationships #cloudculture
There's a step change and revolution in cultural relations. Look at the impact on work of technology and data - can we work more effectively through better access. If access is difficult - what impact does that have. Think of Google's place in China for example.
by brian_condon at 2/8/2010 6:14:46 PM
who will be accessing #cloudculture? challenges and opportunities (China and Google)
#cloudculture Catherine Fieschi: when the platform changes, so does the culture; hence brit council interest.
#cloudculture #admission I probably belong
How do we make the best use of these new networks and audiences she asks?
by brian_condon at 2/8/2010 6:15:23 PM
Will be catching up with #cloudculture from home I think - no way I am going to get there in good time ... keep hashtaggin!
Catherine says how we think about culture, what constitutes heritage, how do we reshape, curate and preserve. This is changing the role of institutions.
by brian_condon at 2/8/2010 6:16:19 PM
what is heritage? how do we curate #cloudculture - how do we preserve it and share these roles?
Just snuck in at the back of #cloudculture at the ICA.
Could someone please define 'culture'? #cloudculture
Our memories and our realtionship to time is changing. What will be lost. What is ephemeral and what does remain? These are important questions.
by brian_condon at 2/8/2010 6:17:00 PM
twitpic.com - Clever people talking #cloudculture
relationship to what is ephemeral and what remains, what is heritage and what is preserved - this is a revolution in culture #cloudculture
more than a two-way conversation, but a million-way conversation via #cloudculture
#cloudculture Makes me think of futurist manifesto; museums broken open, everything interpenetrating...
#cloudculture Is there
The future of global cultural relations is also changing - no longer about broadcasting "It's about a 'million-way' conversation" - this needs to be debated and discussed.
