What is it?

Day One (Industry Focus) is focused on bringing together public media professionals from around the country to explore solutions for the future viability and strength of public media. The open conference format will provide an arena to leverage the expertise of the participants and share the collective knowledge of the group to forward the evolution and sustainability of public media.

 

Day Two (Community Focus) builds on the information gleaned from Day One and invites the local community to join the conversation. The goal will be to gain a richer understanding of how public media can better serve the needs of the community and how we can leverage current and emerging technologies.

 

Day Three (Developer Focus) Code sprint day for programmers to choose and develop a related pubmedia project or widget. Participants will learn from others as they go, but the focus is not on instruction. The outcome of the day would be to create working software. (pending interest)

 

Where?

October 24 – October 26

Innovative Santa Cruz

 

Why Santa Cruz?

Quiddities, a Santa Cruz CA web development firm, received a grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation for their project RadioEngage.

 

RadioEngage will provide a next generation open source solution for public radio stations. The platform will be developed by engineers at Quiddities for Santa Cruz local public radio station KUSP and made available for other public radio stations to implement.

 

KUSP serves the Central Coast of California and is excited to embrace new open source technologies to better serve its community.

 

Santa Cruz hosts this event because it's where creativity, innovation and technology converge.
