Jen Bekman, 20x200 | Jen Bekman Projects, Inc.
Description:
With all the stuff we weed through online, good filters are crucial. Who's best-suited to determine what's best – curators or the crowd? People have their religion about one or the other, however this panel will focus on the overlap, the grey areas and how curating and crowd-sourcing enrich each other.

The fact that I'm voting on this using an interactive panel picker to help contribute to 30% of the decision-making process, which will be combined with the staff and advisory board's 70% input, shows exactly why this topic matter is current and critical.

The web is the one medium that truly ignites a dialogue between the parties involved in the communication process, commercial interactions and decision making. The opportunity to explore the nuance of relationships through this dialogue will likely be the catalyst for better content, better response and better understanding of behavior as the web matures. This is a critical discussion that has so much weight to it and a myriad of possibilities.

Jen is not the only one bridging art, technology and the internet, but in terms of impact, she's definitely leading the pack.

Projects like 20x200 stand to show that with a curator creativity can flourish.

The debate of curator vs crowd is becoming one of the biggest debates online, and in the art world.

Curating / tummeling / commmunity management ..whatever you call it it is *the* key skill and need that will rise to the top of leading any succesful project. And Jen is awesome at it.

Today's "community manager is tomorrow's CEO. In fact, Obama is running as the Conversation officer in chief in many ways.
Do it today!
