Mumbrellacast: Live from Compass Brisbane
(L-R): Elliott Bledsoe, Kirsty Lucas, Remy Brassac, Kelly Healy, Andrew Kolb, Tim Burrowes (moderator)
This week’s Mumbrellacast is a live recording from our Compass Brisbane event, where a panel of media and marketing insiders speak about the compounding challenges — and opportunities — in the industry.
How do you do more with less? It’s the number one question for the arts sector, agencies, and newsrooms. You can blame shrinking budgets, Google, Meta, artificial intelligence – or you can embrace the constant change in the industry and keep looking to the horizon.
Elliott Bledsoe, co-lead of Creative Commons Australia, talks about the tricky situation the arts sector is going through, where it isn’t navigating how AI will shape its future, but instead openly rallying against its use. News Corp’s Kelly Healey wonders what the next generation of journalists looks like, while moderator Tim Burrowes wonders what they’ll actually do now that AI is taking all the entry-level tasks.
