Abstract
This book is the 6th in the Bit Bang series of books produced as multidisciplinary teamwork exercises by doctoral students participating in the course Bit Bang 6: The Future of Media at Aalto University during the academic year 2013–2014. The course aimed at fostering teamwork and multidisciplinary collaboration, as well as providing the students with global perspectives and business foresight on the future of the media industry. The media industry is currently undergoing its biggest revolution since the invention of the printing press: digitalization is fundamentally changing the media landscape, and the distribution channels and revenue models of the print and broadcasting industries are being challenged. Digital convergence has changed the media value chain, and the Internet and social media have introduced new players to the game. Working in teams, the students set out to answer questions related to the changing media industry and to brainstorm radical scenarios of what the future could hold. This joint publication contains articles produced as teamwork assignments for the course, in which the students were encouraged to take novel and radical views on the future of the media industry. The Bit Bang series of courses is supported by the Multi disciplinary Institute of Digitalisation and Energy (MIDE). Previous Bit Bang publications are available from http:/mide.aalto.fi.Description
