Sustainable Media explores the many ways that media and environment are intertwined from the exploitation of natural and human resources during media production to the installation and disposal of media in the landscape; from people’s engagement with environmental issues in film, television, and digital media to the mediating properties of ecologies themselves. Edited by Nicole Starosielski and Janet Walker, the assembled chapters expose how the social and representational practices of media culture are necessarily caught up with technologies, infrastructures, and environments.Through in-depth analyses of media theories, practices, and objects including cell phone towers, ecologically-themed video games, Geiger counters for registering radiation, and sound waves traveling through the ocean, contributors question the sustainability of the media we build, exchange, and inhabit and chart emerging alternatives for media ecologies.
Becoming a customer-focused, versatile, and resilient organization is the goal of many of the agile transformations we are seeing in Germany and Austria, regardless of company size or industry. The journey for organizations is not easy - sometimes it is even bumpier than it needs to be. One thing is certain: there is no single right way - no "happy path" - to achieve an agile transformation, because the individual requirements of countless organizations cannot be met by a one-size-fits-all approach to change. However, there are tools that make the journey easier and sustainable success more likely. Even when transformations go through a crisis - which is more common than you might think - there are reasons to remain optimistic. The authors of this book work at the heart of transformation activities. They design strategies for agile transformations, bring derailed transformations back on track, and guide people in the organization until they are able to design the next stages of change themselves. All of the approaches presented in this book are backed by experience and proven to work.
