Talking Through My Hat

53: People and technology: the future of making books

Informações:

Synopsis

This year has shown once again how technology is vital to the making of books - and that our needs can change in a heartbeat, but also that people are always at the heart of what we do. Join our panel to discuss questions like: does tech ever change what we're trying to do, or just how we do it? how do we balance the development of skilled publishing teams with the use of new technologies? where do these two aims align, and where do they not? how do we equip our teams to make best use of their skills? The panel discussion was streamed on YouTube, followed by a live Q&A on Twitter under the event hashtag #TalkingThroughMyHat. The panel Anna Faherty Anna (she/her) runs StrategicContent, a writing, training and strategy consultancy, where she collaborates with a diverse range of clients to scope, develop and deliver print, digital and in-gallery experiences. Formerly course leader for the Kingston University MA Publishing, Anna now teaches at City University, London and the University of the Arts London. C
