Living Art and Shining Frivolity: IP Justification

My IP opportunity will be an interactive story to educate people, influenced by future climate change, the digital age, and ethical diamonds.

I have found that the idea of climate change is a huge topic of popular interest in the media, and will make an interesting subject for my IP – and my research has proven this. An IP involving climate change may be of interest to the media and to the public, and this will make it a successful idea. With the introduction of ethics (which I talked about in my Jewels: Horizon section) it could become very appealing and popular because it will be educational and will make people feel that they are doing ‘something good for other people’.

The ethical side of this is where the subject of diamonds will come into play. Diamonds and ethical ideas come hand in hand with each other because most diamonds are mined in 3rd world counties, and therefore there are many injustices associated with the diamond trade. (Brilliant Earth 2011)

My research on the digital age and how it has produced so much innovation will tie these ideas together. There is a huge interest in digital technology (especially for cinema and jewellery) and there looks to be a huge popularity in the media in the future too.

In the research over the project, technology has appeared many times and has influenced many of the subjects that I have looked at, so to include it in my IP opportunity is a good idea. Technology is set to advance, too, so it is always changing and keeping up to date. 

(Technology Tricks 2011)

Diamonds evoke a sense of mystery, grandeur and are coveted (as seen in all of my research on diamonds), and because of this I can see them as an interesting topic for an IP, and people will find them interesting. There is much romance associated with receiving a diamond, but people are still rather ignorant of the way they are mined and the workers exploited. With the advancements in technology and media, people are becoming more and more aware of issues that they previously would have not been aware of, so I can justify the popularity of this (and the fact that it ties in with ethics) justifiable. 

(Delegation of the European Union to Cambodia 2011)

All of these points about my IP opportunity statement are justifiable because of their recurrence in cultural and popular media, and are supported by the evidence that I have gathered while studying my chosen topics.

Living Art and Shining Frivolity: Forecast

My research has justified that there will most likely be more media coverage in Cinema and Climate Change in the future. These two topics were the most prominent in my horizon research, and therefore will most likely become more popular in the future.

My goal for this forecast section is to develop my ideas using the research from my blog, and potential innovations appearing in the future.

Technological advancements play a huge role in the future of my forecast topics, and I think it will be responsible in changing the future for the better. More information is becoming available, and technology is getting smaller and easier to carry around, or adapt to what people need it for – this is leading innovations for the future, and changing the future of the subjects I have researched.

Technology is getting smaller (Ellen McMahon 2011)

If I combine the ideas researched in my present day and horizon topics, I think that 4D Cinema could increase in popularity and could be very relevant and achievable in the next 2 to 5 years. With technology becoming cheaper, it is very possible that we could see cinemas adapting to show 4D films, or even new 4D cinemas being built. The popularity of 3D films has led me to believe this, and so 4D is just a step up from 3D in the viewing experience. This is already beginning in places like Korea with the film Avatar being shown in 4D (Variety.com, Han Sunhee 2010) 

This could be the future for cinemas across the world. (Yaokon 2011)

Another innovation which could occur in the next 2 to 5 years could be the invention of viewing live theatre from home. My research into the horizon of theatre has shown that people are getting more and more reluctant to leave the safety and comfort of their own homes because technology is making it earlier to access everything they want from their living rooms. In the future, theatre could be performed on a stage and broadcast live into people’s homes so that they can watch it without going to a theatre. With the additions of new innovations such as Xbox Kinect, and social networking, an ‘audience’ of people watching the live performance at the same time could be digitally connected and interact with each other. (Xbox360Achievements 2011) 

People using the Xbox Kinect to watch media - This could be the future of Theatre in the home. (Kotaku 2011)

The final point of my forecast is the subject of climate change. This emerged from my past and present research about ice, and the information I found about the Kyoto Protocol expiring in 2012. This means that there is going to have to be some pretty spectacular innovation in this area in order to reduce greenhouse emissions and stop the polar ice melting. (BBC 2011) In the next 2 to 5 years I can see nuclear power getting more popular, and fossil fuel power plants being phased out. This is a very popular topic for the future because the implications are disastrous. The UK’s climate could potentially become like Iceland’s current climate because of changes in the Gulf Stream. This can be caused by melting ice and glaciers diluting the salt water. (Climate Concern 2011) 

Diagram to show the melting ice caps, these could have a significant impact on our future. (Natural Resources Defence Council 2011)

This is a popular image in the media to show the plight of the polar bears, suffering due to the melting habitats they live in. (break.com 2011)

I am confident that these forecasts are relevant and justifiable for my areas of interest and study, and the climate change forecast is especially worrying. It is something that will defiantly become more popular in the media because the implications of this prediction are very severe and after the new Kyoto Protocol is agreed upon, governments will probably want to increase awareness even more.

Theatre: Horizon

As my research has shown, theatre is still popular in culture and media. It has also shown that although it is not as popular as it used to be, it is trying to change and adapt to keep up with modern advancements and taste.

My research has discovered that most popular theatres, especially in London, were built in the Victorian era and were very small. (Binkie Blog 2011)

Scarborough Theatre, A very common Theatre format - this is set to improve over the next year. (thisisscarborough.org 2011)

Theatre owners are now starting to improve the places that people go to watch performances in the hope that it will attract more people and keep the medium alive. One such improvement is quite minor, but quite significant – Installing comfier seats. The Ambassador Theatre Group in the West End are installing new and comfier seats, possible because of modern technology. (Probax 2011)

As an example;

“(they) use dual density foams to encourage an anatomically correct posture in the seat occupant… and dramatically increases the comfort experience for the seat user.” ProBax 2011

Innovations in seat design to improve the Theatre experience. (Silver Sea Media 2010)

In my own opinion, I have gathered that theatre is taking a backseat in popular culture already in the present day, so technology may make it even less popular in the future. I think that computers, televisions, smartphones, tablets and cinemas give audiences a more convenient way to watch productions and entertainment, and this is something worth looking into for the future forecast section of my research, as they may eventually replace theatre. 

An advert for BBC iPlayer on Android Smartphones - People can now watch media on the go, and this is proving very popular. This could be expanded to theatre and films in the future. (Roland Hutchinson 2010)

"The layout of the app is brilliant, making it easy to browse Auntie’s vast repository of TV and radio content. A big, friendly ‘Featured’ page directs you to shows that are popular right now, while it’s also possible to jump straight to a channel or station, or browse by content categories. All of these functions are handled within a polished and intuitive menu system, and everything loads up quickly." (BBC iPlayer Review - Damien McFerran Feb 2011)

In terms of the cinema industry, the digitalisation of film is making it very convenient for people to have access to it. Most cinemas are now digital, and most in England are now capable of showing 3D films. (Movie Insider 2011)

3D Beauty and the Beast - Even though it is an old film , it is getting re-released in 2012 so people can see it in 3D (Disney 2011)

A new film for 2012, using new 3D technology (Universal Pictures 2011)

 In the next 6 to 12 months there will be a number of families with access to 3D films and television in their own homes – which was quite unheard of a couple of years ago. It has also been announced that improvements will be made to 3D television in 2012 to make it better for people. (3D Radar 2011) Sky television, owned by BSkyB already has a Sky 3D channel, and a 3D films channel – so, many more service providers will begin to follow in its wake in the next year. 

Sky Box Office - This is proving very popular because viewers can watch films at home, nearly just as soon as they have been released at the cinema (Niffy Branco 2011)

For the average public who cannot afford 3D, there are still new LED televisions, and HD channels, which show media in the same quality as seen in the cinemas. 

This is an advert for a Samsung 3D Television. This was released in 2010, but like with all new technologies it has taken a while to become popular with people. Now, in 2011 it has gained popularity and more of these televisions are being sold.

From the Panasonic Website: An advert for an upcoming TV to enhance the viewing experience of the viewer - could this become more popular than cinema? (Panasonic 2011)

There may be trouble on the horizon for the cinema industry. People may stop going to watch films there, and they may need more innovation in this area in order to attract people back. People now have 3D, feature length films available on their television even when they are still on in the cinema, HDTV, cinema quality surround sound and much more available to them in their own homes.

This idea is shown to be popular with people, and if it is compared to the popularity Theatre has shown in the past and present day, it is definitely changing. The subject has stayed popular because traditional theatres are changing and incorporating new technology and innovations. An American cinema company – SM Cinemas is set to do this in the next year by installing ‘ergonomic chairs and recliners’. The intention is that the cinema will feel more like the viewer is inside their own home, rather than at the cinema. (Comfy Seats at SM Cinema – The Philippine Star, 2nd August 2011) 

Advert for SM Cinema's Ergonomic Seating, perhaps bringing the popularity back to cinemas (SM Cinemas 2011)

Another upcoming innovation that could make cinemas more up to date and viable is ‘3D sound’ from a company called ISONO:

“IOSONO® technology supports speaker configurations from 5 to 500 loudspeakers.
Sounds can be made to appear anywhere within or outside of the venue to create stunningly realistic, three-dimensional soundscapes that put the audience at the heart of the action”. (ISONO 2011)

ISONO Audio Lab, for use with the 3D Speakers to give audiences a better experience (ISONO 2011)

After 120 years of being used in the film industry, 35mm film is officially ‘on the way out’ in January 2012. This is a big factor influencing the horizon of cinema, because it means that in the next 6 to 12 months the entire industry will be digitalised. The head of film research at HIS states, "However, after 10 years of market priming, movie theatres now are undergoing a rapid transition … spurred initially by the rising popularity of 3D films." (David Hancock 2011) Statistics warn that there will be no usage of 35mm film by 2014. This is popular on the horizon because people do actually like film, and they do not want everything to be digitalised. I think that there will be several public debates about this controversial topic on the horizon. (Guardian 2011)

Conclusion

After doing this research it is becoming clear that the main event on the Horizon for theatre is the advancements in digital technology. Over the years cinema has taken popularity away from the theatre, because films are technically like theatre productions that people can see at any time and any place – the only difference is that they are not live. Digital advancements mean that in the cinema we can see things that we had never dreamed of seeing before (with the help of CGI), and Dolby Digital surround sound makes the experience all the better. On the horizon now are cinemas in our own homes, because technology is making this possible. In the future people may not even need to go to the cinema because they can get the same experience in the comfort of their own homes – with much more besides. In conclusion, cinema has become the new theatre, but the medium of cinema must stay innovative in order to maintain its popularity with people in the future.
