Is creativity stifled or stimulated by the openness digital technology offers? The internet allows content to be accessed and shared more easily than ever before. At the same time, barriers between professional creators and consumers are broken down, while non-professional artists now have open platforms to publish and publicise their own creations. How has control over the creative process shifted as a result? Join Digital Planet presenter Gareth Mitchell for a discussion on openness, creativity and control with June Cohen, Executive Producer of TED, Steve Rosenbaum, author of Curation Nation, and broadcaster and blogger Jamillah Knowles. See the radio programme put together live as we hear from creators and curators around SXSW. The pioneering electronic artists of Dorkbot share their views on collaborative creativity, while Andrew Keen, acclaimed author of Cult of the Amateur: How the internet is killing our culture, argues that the openness of the internet undermines the professional creative class by favouring consumers on one hand and amateurs on the other.

If social media has taught marketers anything, it’s that we now live in an environment where we just can’t predict or control everything about our campaigns. But this isn’t just about viral videos that don’t go viral, or user backlash that does. It’s about marketing as a whole and how it is changed by a broader culture of unpredictability – driven by the voracious appetites of a relentless 24-hour news cycle, the inability to fit consumer contributions to our expectations, and an attention-starved world’s unquenchable desire for fresh content and technology. How do these trends change marketers’ job descriptions? How can we generate ideas that anticipate and leverage the unexpected? How should we operate differently – in our relationships with clients, in our ability to sense and respond to consumers, even in the way agencies get paid? Join PJA Radio, one of the Internet’s most popular marketing radio shows, and some (ahem) unexpected guests as we tackle these issues, provide actionable recommendations and look at real-world cases of marketing that has generated unexpected consequences – both good and bad.
