Converging Pathways to New Knowledge is a LabforCulture initiative considering the future of knowledge building and knowledge sharing within a new digital paradigm.

The Converging Pathways to New Knowledge Publication is out now!

The publication, Converging Pathways to New Knowledge, brings together online and offline conversations facilitated by LabforCulture and Kennisland, looks at the different ways we are all experiencing what can be termed a “digital shift”, is out today.

The conversations featured in this publication include contributions from leading thinkers in science, technology, creative industries and business, considering how our knowledge building has been affected by the digital shift and giving both insight and examples of these shifts. Contributors include Ken Arnold, Wellcome Trust (UK); Olivier Schulbaum, Platoniq (ES) and Floor van Spaendonck, Virtueel Platform (NL) ingeniously pulled together by Martijn Arnoldus, Kennisland (NL).

The Converging Pathways to New Knowledge initiative had two interconnected stages which led to a third outcome: a publication. The first stage was a series of online debates, involving invited experts and the LabforCulture community discussing and commenting on knowledge production, knowledge sharing and regulation, which led to the second stage, a roundtable event in Göteborg on 28 July 2009, which will brought together foundations, governments and cultural organisations to further reflect on the impact of the digital shift.
