"Media, Urbanism & the Built Environment" will be the topic of a roundtable conversation this Wednesday as part of Chautauqua Art Lab 2010. I will be joining Michael Allen, Antonio French, Toby Weiss and Rick Bonasch to talk about on-line media and its possibilities and limitations in St. Louis.
Wondering what to expect from a media, urbanism & the built environment roundtable? Here's a little more info on the night:
 – Each participant will present a 5-minute overview of their on-line project
 – We will each address the following 5 questions: 
- Who is your intended audience, and how well do you feel that you reach them?
 - We all know that online media offers greater accessibility – but how does the format affect your content?
 - What is your relationship with traditional media /journalism?
 - How does your online project affect your professional position – are there conflicts of interest or a kind of symbiosis?
 - What are your responsibilities running an online entity – is there a set of ethics that you follow?
 
– Open Q&A from the audience
