Un-Convention, one of thousands AND a good thing

Ben Cardew of Music Week writes about a London conference that showcases local artists and addresses new business models that can assist them. Acting locally sometimes is so local that it falls below the international radar screen. It is still a very good thing. I especially appreciate the..."renews emphasis on live performance..." that is quoted in context, below.

"Organisers claim they will be joined by “over thirty of the most forward-thinking minds in the current scene”, with discussions on the future role of record labels, the renewed emphasis on live performance, how to gain exposure across all forms of media and a look at some of the most innovative ideas and business models around.

Un-convention is also running a blog, to be found at www.unconvention.wordpress.com, so participants can have their say on what should be discussed at the event."
