Survival of the Filter: A Darwinian Look the Survival of News in the Digital Age
A conversation about preserving novelty and serendipity in the filter bubble (Pariser,2011), avoiding the pitfalls of online collectivism (Lanier,2010), and the danger of an ever-increasing amount of redundancy in the news (Boczkowski, 2010). It is an attempt to explain what has been lost as the news transitions to the web, and the important aspects of that change which must be used to move the idea of the news forward. It is raw and conversational to harken back to the kind of conversations that used to dominate the human exchange of information.
Shad Gross and Ed Rice are graduate students studying Human Computer Interaction Design at Indiana University. They had way too much fun making this video.
