Culture on air: between vertical linearity and horizontal networks

Istituto Svizzero hosts an event devoted to the relationship between the cultural and media sectors. In recent decades, the global, national and regional media landscape has experienced substantial upheavals. Radio, television and print media have been joined by alternative modes of consumption and access to media content, moving from a vertical and linear model to a horizontal and networked one. At the same time, the cultural sector has also experienced significant evolutionary processes, involving traditional practices by fostering the emergence of new proposals.

In this dynamic context, the question arises as to how relations between the worlds of culture and media adapt and articulate. Osservatorio culturale del Cantone Ticino bent on the subject by being in conversation with exponents of the regional media landscape and with the cultural workers themselves, exploring the issue of change from different perspectives.

During the event, the panelists will explore the following questions: with respect to the changing media environment, what are the responses brought by operators in the two supply chains, particularly with regard to the production and dissemination of cultural content? What strategies have been adopted to match the needs of their audiences?

The event is organized by Osservatorio culturale del Cantone Ticino, Dipartimento dell’educazione, della cultura e dello sport – Divisione della cultura e degli studi universitari.
