At the New Media Days office we’re still processing the great attendee feedback we’ve received, but for now we thought we’d share some key findings with you; namely which sessions people thought were the very best! Interestingly, it was an art project that dazzled the Danish media business.

One third of the survey respondents point to Jonathan Harris’ presentation “Surveillance, Self-Exposure and Storytelling” as the best session. Another 10% has it listed as the third best session. And had Jonathan Harris received two more votes as the second best session, he would have beat David Weinberger to it and completed a full trilogy of audience devotion.

Of course it should be remembered that Harris and Weinberger were the opening keynotes and as such didn’t share their timeslot with any other sessions, i.e. they enjoyed the attention of every conference guest. But still the numbers are very convincing. Congratulations, Jonathan and David, on winning the hearts of the audience!

Jonathan Harris asked us not to webcast his session, but as I wrote before you can watch the presentation of his awe-inspiring 2006 project, We Feel Fine, at the TED website. At Harris’ own site you can read more about his latest work. Among other things The Whale Hunt project that he also presented at New Media Days; a photographic experiment of human storytelling from a computer’s perspective.

David Weinberger enlightening us about “Media in a Miscellaneous World” and many more presentations from New Media Days 08 are available as webcasts from our main site – and soon podcasts too.
