Umair Haque runs a media lab and often writes about important paradigm shifts around new media and the social web. Many (including myself) have been following Umair and his analysis. In this video we’ve posted below on "radical innovators," Umair lays out the framework for some innovation.
Umair has been documenting these trends on his blog "BubbleGeneration". He has been also writing at Harvard on his Harvard blog.
Over the years here is the areas that he has been analyzing. This video is about music but can be applied to any media industry. Something that we are researching at SiliconAngle Labs is what he calls the "Information Problem" and "listener preferences".
