3 WELCOME
As events continue to push us into new territory, this issue continues our exploration of the ways people are pushing back against the isolation caused by Covid-19 and continuing to create new content and new audiences. We look at a venture from Manchester, UK, which aims to bring the city’s nightlife to the whole world, with bands, DJs, singers and performers livestreaming sets from the city’s venues. People worldwide are tuning in to get a taste from their homes. In this month’s Round Table, we learn how to build a simple remote studio. With TV presenters, talent and experts literally phoning it in, broadcasters are having to deploy smart, low-maintenance but high-quality set-ups, which can turn an office or spare bedroom into a TV studio. Our experts answer questions on everything from getting the right equipment to training the talent to become their own directors and lighting technicians. This month’s Genius Interview guest, Lauren Klein, is co-writer of a book on how to rethink how we work with data. Data Feminism , written in partnership with Catherine D’Ignazio, challenges a lot of assumptions about how we deal with the masses of data being extracted from us and presented to us on a minute-by- minute basis – the first of which is that data is neutral or objective. In fact, data is much more likely to be an expression of the people who created it – or created the algorithms that created it. There is no such thing as ‘raw data.’ This issue we also continue with FEED:SHOW, our ‘trade show in a magazine’ that offers you the chance to see new releases and hear what’s available from video tech vendors around the world.
