About the Forum

This 1-day conference heared from a range of professionals working across the mobile industry. It explored key trends in mobile content consumption; outlined the technical aspects of content creation; examined mobile culture and explored scenarios for the future usage of mobile content; discussed the artistic and commercial potential for content both within Australia and for export.

There was the opportunity to hear from the Mobile Journeys' international speakers about the master classes and community workshops that they have been working on in Australia and to view some initial outcomes from this work.
