Deputy director of USC Annenberg's Normal Lear Center Johanna Blakley was interviewed by Campus Technology about the importance of keeping USC at the forefront of technological research.
Blakley discussed the newly implemented “Creativity & Collaboration in the Academy,” which “explores new ways of framing the artistic, legal, and ethical issues facing creative industries and individual artists in the digital age.”
“We believe that the challenge for academia is similar to the one faced by music and publishing,” Blakley said. “We would like to play a part in making sure that academia doesn't find it as hard to adapt to new technology as these industries have.”
