The artist formerly known as our audience

by Molly Webb

We've launched a new website! We've worked with Headshift over the last year to develop a number of  ways to let our 'audience' participate in our work. I liked to call this involving the 'artist formerly known as our audience' -- and today I noted (a little belatedly) that Jay Rosen has referred to 'people formerly known as the audience' in his recent post on PressThink.

You could call it 'co-production' of knowledge, but really we just thought our project research would be better and more interesting if we started integrating the feedback you give us on the blog, and allowed you to comment on publications and generally get more involved. (See more about the new website features.)

Let us know what you think.

PressThink is an excellent blog. Jay Rosen is really thrashing out the ideas and implications behind these new fangled digital communications, and whether The Blogger can challenge the Main-Stream-Media.My take is that the operative word in 'citizen journalist' should be 'citizen' and not 'journalist'. New Media can be used to stregthen community and family ties, not challenge the Fourth Estate.
