Events / PFF presents Current TV in conversation
In 2006, the Australian-based company Portable Content launched the Portable Film Festival website, a user generated video site that distributes video to users through portable video platforms including iPods, mobile phones and laptops. They are staging a series of events during early April in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Singapore and New Zealand called the Portable Symposium at which attendees will hear from Current TV’s chief evangelist, Ezra Cooperstein, as he talks about user generated, citizen journalism and how Current TV is transforming online media in the United States and in South-East Asia. Tickets are available through the Portable Film Festival website.

I’ve been waiting for a group like this. These New Puritans are balls in your face, 100 miles an hour, pure attack! A young British group that has most of the UK press in the palm of their skinny pale hands, they hint at a sonic mash of Bloc Party mixed with what White Rose Movement were supposed to be. What more could you want?
Listen to the These New Puritans track, Elvis.
