Teletext50: The Stories A Byte High No Limit / illarterate co-production   In 1974, a brand new technology called teletext was being rolled out. It would, over the next few decades, have far-reaching implications, not only in the UK but worldwide.   These are the stories of those involved in the production, restoration and art of the blocky medium that graced UK TV screens until 2012. You'll hear from the pioneers, those who made teletext tick, and the newcomers keeping the medium alive 50 years after its inception.   This is a social record of teletext, and these are the teletext people.

Remember surfing through TV channels or scanning through radio stations, stopping when a show or conversation sounded interesting? Or skimming the sections of a newspaper or randomly flipping through a magazine? For many, this opportunistic style of content consumption is rather antiquated. Interactive TV  guides, podcasts piped through our car radios, and news delivered to our news apps. We’re choosing the content we want to consume, often when we want to consume it. Just like podcasts. Podcasting sucks for the opportunistic listener for all the reasons I listed above. But the rise in drop-in audio apps and live recording sessions streamed to social platforms is changing that. The opportunistic listener uses these services with little or no intention of being social or engaging with the creator. They just want to lean back and listen/watch. And they are.  From the creator’s perspective, we may see dozens or more people commenting on our “lives”, boosting our streams with hearts, or raising their hands to get on stage with us. But what we’re not seeing—simply because we’re not looking—are the hoards of silent participants doing none of those things, content to listen to or watch us do our thing. Conventional wisdom tells us to create content specific to the strengths of a platform rather than the lazy method of repurposing content to another medium, shoe-horn style. I may have been complicit in that wisdom. On more than one occasion. But maybe it’s time to rethink that position. Maybe we should look less at making an engaging social-worthy experience on those platforms and just give the opportunistic consumers what they want: a lean-back experience of our content as we’re making it. ----- A written-to-be-read article and a full transcript of the audio of this episode can be found at https://podcastpontifications.com/episode/solving-podcastings-opportunistic-challenge-today (https://podcastpontifications.com/episode/solving-podcastings-opportunistic-challenge-today) https://twitter.com/evoterra (Follow @EvoTerra on Twitter) for more podcasting insights as they come. https://buymeacoffee.com/evoterra (Buy him a virtual coffee) to show your support at BuyMeACoffee.com/evoterra And if you need a professional in your podcasting corner, please visithttps://podcastlaunch.pro/ ( Simpler.Media) to see how Simpler Media Productions can help you reach your business objectives with podcasting.

Alysha has the pleasure of meeting Marc Canter all because she listened to her “Spidey Sense” after Erica O'Grady (Episode 8) told her about Jeff Pulver's networking group (Episode 15) which is how they connected. However, it was after the biggest myrony that connected Daniel Kottke from last week's episode (Episode 17) that Alysha knew meeting Marc was for a greater reason. Hear the continued story from last week's episode of the early days of Silicon Valley where Canter shares about his experience with Jobs and how Canter's software MacroMind (which later became Macromedia) was also in the first Apple Computers. Canter shares his extremely colorful history in the software world including his claim to fame with video games (remember Professor Pac-Man?) and his meeting with Bill Gates…we know even if you are not into computers will appreciate the story he shares. Canter finally explains about his latest creativity & entertainment tool known as Instigate.ai where we will be able to tell a “story” with AI that we get to create. Is this going to be the next big thing after Instagram and Tik Tok? We hope so because for those that are tired of just selfies, Instigate.ai is the answer & more myronies could be shared!! About the Guest:Marc Canter is a software entrepreneur, who co-founded MacroMind (in 1984 in Chicago), which became Macromedia [MACR.] Because of Marc's tireless work, enthusiastic evangelism and creative leadership - Marc is known as "one of the fathers of multimedia."After Macromedia Marc created an Interactive Music Video Band (MediaBand) w/Todd Rungren, created an Interactive TV Talk Show and a venue based Operating system (MediaBar) all leading up to "the Internet." At that time Marc's product Director - was directly responsible for creating 85% of the world's multimedia and generating 100,000's of digital media jobs and production entities.Marc focused on broadband solutions during the early days of the Internet - traveling to London, Amsterdam, Japan and Italy, building "Interactive TV" systems and Digital City prototypes - all leading up to the development of a "white labeled Social Networking" platform (called PeopleAggregator) which he utilized to build 27 different social networks - between '03-'09. The 00's also had Marc getting heavily involved in the rights of User's to their Data and a group called "the Identity Gang."In '09 Marc picked up his family and moved to Cleveland, after having lived and worked in the SF/Bay Area for 27 years. Marc created an "economic development" platform (called "the Digital City Project") which he took out on the road to Amsterdam, Kuala Lampur, Jamaica, Tampa, FL, Kansas City and other cities. Marc's family then moved to Charlotte, NC - where he started yet ANOTHER startup, which originally focused on IoT Authoring tools, but pivoted into an entirely new kind of Messaging App - called Cola.Cola brought Marc back to SF - where he eventually started "Instigate, Inc." which is developing a new kind of "conversational storytelling" tool. Marc is an expert of taking ideas from Zero to One and has been helping software startups develop and grow their companies for over 30 years. Marc is a leader, an interdisciplinary thinker, a Dad and a loving husband to his wife, 5 kids and one granddaughter.Instigate.ai = websitehttps://www.facebook.com/Cantervision = Facebook grouphttps://www.facebook.com/marccanter =...

Predictions Review 2019 At the beginning of each year we make predictions as to what we think will happen in the area of HDTV, Home Theater, and Home Automation. We usually hit at about 40% correct. This year, thanks to some generous judging we only got to 33%. So let's see how close, or far, we came in our predictions. MicroLEDs Make a Macro Splash MicroLED are an emissive display technology similar to that of OLED. Likewise, they can, theoretically at least, produce perfect blacks, excellent color, and near-perfect off-angle viewing. But unlike OLEDs, they claim to be even brighter, thinner, immune to burn-in, and in time, less expensive to make than other technologies. Look for at least one MicroLED TV to come to market in 2019. No Micro LEDs that we could find. However, TCL released a Mini LED product in their 8-Series line. Not quite the same thing but a step in the right direction. The TCL has 25,000 zones which should do better than the current LEDs with hundreds of zones. 0/1 Interactive TV comes to a Screen Near You Thanks to companies like Roku, Apple, Amazon, and Google, many of us have a smart box connected to our sets. In fact, many TVs have the same smarts built into them. Look for at least one manufacturer incorporate interactive TV into the programs being watched through their devices. Participate in fan polls, voting for your favorite contestant, or just chatting with other viewers all from the comfort of your couch! Disney Channel does make use of this during some programming. You can chime in on questions on screen and see what the rest of America feels about questions being asked. But this is done through their app. It's not built into the TV architecture. 0/2 LG Releases a Roll Up OLED Last year at CES we talked about an OLED TV screen that was so thin that it could bend. This year we double down on this technology and bet that LG releases a rollable OLED TV. The screen itself will roll into a box that is about the size of a sound bar when not in use. In fact the same box can house the electronics as well as the speakers truly making it a Home Theater in a box.  We wanted this to be true and according to the LG website it ALMOST is. LG says this TV is coming soon. 0/3 Home Security Will Drive Home Automation Demand Home security surveillance and monitoring will become the driving force behind home automation acceptance. Compelling ads similar to the ones run by Ring Doorbell will push many to dip their toes in the water surround home automation. Once you have your outside lights automated it's a simple step to automate your inside. And so it will begin for many.  We have seen Ring grow for a doorbell company to a security company and now they sell home automation products. Likewise SimpliSafe is doing similar things. People start here and then incorporate more automation into their lives. 1/4 Smart Mirrors Look for a company to release a smart mirror that is affordable for “most” of us. Imagine getting ready in the morning and looking into your mirror to interact with  your social media feeds, watch news and and get weather updates.You will even be able to control your home all from your bathroom!  Well we kind of have a winner here. There is a smart Mirror but it's for working out. It displays your vitals and you can look at yourself as you follow the instructor on the screen. No news or weather but that is just around the corner. So we are going to give ourselves partial credit of 25% correct. 1.25/5 Voice Control of our Home Theater Will Become a Reality Whether it be the Echo, Siri, or Google Home you will be able to control your home theater with your voice. And not rudimentary control, we're talking Tell your TV exactly what you want to do and it will be done. Alexa, watch A&E Channel on SlingTV. Or Hey Siri watch the LA Dodgers on the MLB app.  This was our gimmie. But with that said it is still not 100% correct. You can do quite a bit with voice like launching apps. You can even tell siri to watch a specific channel on the ATT App and it goes there! We had no idea that would work but it does!! We'll take 75% correct. 2/6 for a grand total of 33%

Predictions for 2019 Time for the HT Guys to look into our crystal ball and try and predict the HDTV and Home Theater landscape for 2019. Our crystal ball isn't as clear as a good HDTV but we faithfully give it another shot nonetheless. MicroLEDs Make a Macro Splash MicroLED are an emissive display technology similar to that of OLED. Likewise, they can, theoretically at least, produce perfect blacks, excellent color, and near-perfect off-angle viewing.

Lingospot, a provider of automatic scene-level TV metatags and metacontent, last week announced a partnership with "augmented TV" company, SeeSpace. The latter has developed an ACR-enabled device dubbed InAiR, which, when connected via HDMI between a TV and a set-top box, enhances programming with what the company describes as "a rich, dynamic and animated viewer experience using the main TV screen as well as the space between the screen and the viewer" (the experience is designed to work on 2D, 3D and 4K TV's). The deal with Lingospot will see the latter powering the content for InAiR's augmented-TV experience: the company uses natural language processing, semantic search, image analysis and machine learning technologies to analyze "multiple modalities" of a TV broadcast and automatically extract metadata; and then enhances TV viewing by adding relevant metacontent, such as articles, photos and tweets.In this recorded interview with [itvt] editor-in-chief Tracy Swedlow, Lingospot co-founder and CEO, Nikos Iatropoulos, and SeeSpace co-founder, Anne-Marie Roussel, discuss their companies' new deal and the ways in which they are collaborating to enhance the viewing experience.

Indra Adnan, founder of the Soft Power Network, and media technologist Tony Churnside, Technical Director at The New Radiophonic Workshop, join Paul Blanchard to discuss the latest media stories. The Guardian has been criticised for publishing an advert that compared Hamas to “child killers”. The advert had been turned down by The Times - which paper was right? With the Scottish independence referendum just around the corner, have TV channels in England, Wales and Northern Ireland given the issue enough coverage? BBC3 has just broadcast its first interactive drama, giving viewers the power to make decisions for the main characters and change the direction of the programme. Is this the future of television?
