To keep the ball rolling before the first large Amplified09 events kick off at the end of February, it seemed a good idea to run a single session this month. After a conversation with the fine folk at the ICA (now on Twitter) they offered to let us have the run of the place on the morning of the 21st. We’re going to be chewing over the future of online video - be that in the form of television programming, film or original web content. @freecloud already ran a bolt-on event for this subject at the Social Media Cafe last year which formed the basis for his session at Amplified08. We’d now like to keep the conversation going and expand upon it. It’s a wide subject and depending on how many people turn up we can dissolve into a few groups to try and work out where online media is taking us.
This is also the first of a series of events to be hosted by CreativeCoffee Club London. After a very successful series of meetings CCC London is now morphing into something a little different. More of a hosted discussion on a set theme that will run monthly or so rather than the smaller weekly conversations from last year.
We’ll also be capturing the event and discussion via video, photography and Twitter hash tags in an attempt to nail down the best way to cover a session. No streaming video this time, but everything we capture will be available online later. Using the CreativeCoffee Club format this will work with a few people, but our hope is to expand on that as we’ll have room for up to 60 people. It’s an early start though as we have the ICA from 9am until 12 (entering through the back exit in true Tuttle Club style).
If you have even a passing interest in the moving image online then come along and share your thoughts. It’ll also be an opportunity to chat about other Amp09 events this year and have a decent cup of coffee.
You can add your ideas for the session and sign up on the wiki here just to give us an idea of numbers. See some of you there!

08|Jan|2009 1I’d love to but I’ll be off hurling myself down a mountain. It should be nice and easy to catch up afterwards if all the #tags etc go to plan though
