Henry Jenkins - Participatory Culture...

From his interview, we collected these points:

  • media industry is all integrated, and everything is accessible on every form of technology
  • people adapt technology to their own needs
  • everyone is a producer as well as a consumer as there is a desire to create and share things with the rest of the world, for example, people making their own videos for youtube
  • technology has become second nature to our generation and people rely on it in their day to day life
  • culture proceeds technology, for example, people struggled to communicate ideas so certain technology was created to make it easier, for example, google
  • collective intelligence is used to broaden access to expertise, for example pooling people's knowledge together
  • wikipedia is a process, not a product
