Will Robots report the News and make Data journalism a thing of the Past?
The only constant is that journalism has to re-invent itself. With technological outlets oozing into everyday culture, the way we get what’s happening out in the real-world is changing and it appears the new word on the streets is Data Journalism. Data is king, and we have become like machines who only acknowledge the values of numbers and statistics. More data; less social science based investigations and storytelling, towards data collecting, analysis and publishing based on code, algorithms and software from the computer sciences? Don’t worry just yet journalism is still all about storytelling, but the stories are being told from newer more scientifically integrated methods. Start-ups are most definitely trying to create a market position for data journalism. Perhaps in the future coders will be taking over the newsroom. It is amazing how quickly feeds from drones were implemented as a reporting tool. Right now we have programs that can be instructed to create rudimentary stories and rewrite them a myriad number of ways. Arduinos have allowed a number of individuals to create custom sensors that can be applied in the field for sensor-based journalism, where you can catalogue real world environmental data. You can capture anything from water…

Other careers, such as a newspaper reporter or news correspondent will decline between 13 and 14 percent in the next ten years.

Punched by a Hologram? Interactive Holograms you can feel.
Here’s the future for marketing and advertisers. Imagine displaying holographic products that you can not only touch but will react with you. Picture a floating can of Coca-Cola that you could grab and pretend to drink, or a crispy potato chip you could place in your mouth. Read on, I’m telling you. Next level media here, Interactive holograms you can feel! By now you all should know that holograms are a staple of science fiction and go as far back to 1893, thanks to Jules Verne. Even recently they have come into vogue due to developments in lasers for entertainment and award events. Researchers at DNG or the Digital Nature Group have found a way to use lasers, mirrors and cameras to create three-dimensional, interactive holograms comprised of tiny points of light called voxels. The team using femtosecond lasers (a femtosecond is a quadrillionth of a second, and the lasers transmit bursts that last 30 to 270 femtoseconds), can make holograms that are safe to touch. The DNG researchers say earlier studies in creating air plasma hadn’t achieved resolution this high, and would burn human skin. The images are three-dimensional, with resolutions up to 200,000 dots per second. The voxels…
