"I want to learn to create, to be visionary, to think differently, to collaborate, to tell stories and to listen really, really well."
AMP News
Over the weekend of January 13-15, more than 30 AMC content coordinators from all over the U.S. and Canada joined AMP staff in our Detroit headquarters to kick off planning of the 21 Tracks, Practice Spaces, and Network Gatherings for the 14th annual Allied Media Conference.
We had a weekend full of activities and exercises to collaboratively strengthen the vision and language of each AMC content area, share critical information about conference structure, and build plans to ensure the fluidity and impact of each session.
Detroit is what the rest of the world has to look forward to. In Detroit we are growing a community of media makers, culture producers, technologists, and small business owners who are building a media-based economy at the city's grassroots. We believe that instead of trying to "bridge the digital divide" between our communities and existing technology, it is more important to reshape technology to meet our communities' needs.
AMC2012 features 21 amazing participant-organized Tracks, Network Gatherings, and Practice Spaces. Read the descriptions here!

Allied Media Projects is a co-presenter of two events as part of the openFrameworks worldwide developers conference in Detroit. We are hosting these events in partnership with Emergence Media, rootoftwo, Artserve Michigan, Work Department, MOCAD, and the Detroit Digital Justice Coalition.
