Dieses Buch vermittelt die Grundlagen für das auf den Zweck ausgerichtete strategische Management in öffentlichen Einrichtungen und Nonprofit-Organisationen. Dabei stellt es die „zweckbasierte Organisation" als zentrales Konzept vor. Die Herausforderungen, die öffentliche Verwaltungen und Nonprofit-Organisationen zu bewältigen haben, sind groß: Sie müssen sowohl im öffentlichen Interesse arbeiten als auch auf Umweltveränderungen agil reagieren können. Häufig fehlt jedoch eine klare strategische Ausrichtung auf die spezifische Zielsetzung der jeweiligen Organisation. Es ist deshalb notwendig, effiziente Strategien zu entwickeln, die gleichzeitig den rechtlichen Rahmen sowie die besonderen Anforderungen dieser Organisationstypen berücksichtigen.
For most of his career, the Emmy Award-winning composer and producer Lucas Cantor Santiago was a self-described luddite. Technology, he felt, was moving too fast, transforming the world and the arts with no regard for the cost in tradition, hard-won human wisdom, and tried-and-true methods of mastery.
That changed, however, when Cantor Santiago was commissioned by Huawei, one of the largest technology companies on the planet, to collaborate with artificial intelligence and finish Franz Schubert's Unfinished Symphony-a successful experiment that attracted attention throughout the world. Creating music in collaboration with a machine led him to question his long-standing assumptions about what music is, what technology does, and how the two have evolved together over the course of human history, from the first bone flute to today's landscape of constant innovation and change.
Drawing on Cantor Santiago's extensive experience in the arts and tech worlds and his ongoing experiments with AI-powered musicmaking, Unfinished is an engaging and refreshingly optimistic meditation on the role of technology in music and the arts. What is the current state of the art? How did we get here? Where do we go now? This book provides an informed perspective on what is lost but what we also gain when we bring our machines ever further into the creation of art in its many different forms.
A series of reflections surveying the events of an ailing country traversed by civil war on multiple fronts.What is it to be Black in America? It is to be constantly given unsolicited advice on how to run your life by people of all stripes, cultures, races, and opinions, so that the message is, by its very design, inconsistent with itself. However, there is one common feature that unites them all, besides their arrogant insistence to respond to what no one has asked of them: you can be sure that not one of these philistines has read-let alone understood-a single line of Plato. It is with this guiding insight that the author seeks to think his own material existence and resolves that philosophy must implicate itself in the utter demise of the alienated and oppressive wasteland in which he has been thrown.

Profound transformations in the ways media products are produced, distributed and consumed caused by digital technologies that have 'disrupted' established business models, markets and relationships, has led to a renewed interest in the industry's spatial patterning and hence the importance of place in which locality, paradoxically in an era of globalisation, has been seen as having heightened significance. This renewed interest in space and location - sometimes characterised as the 'spatial turn' in media studies - has become a particularly pressing and urgent issue across Europe over the last decade as the effects of digital disruption become more pervasive. In an era of the increasing internationalisation of media production and an orientation to global markets, policy makers have recognised the importance of preserving, even enhancing this spatial plurality. As many studies have shown, the strength and influence of Public Service Media, - which have traditionally embraced this role of cultural identity-building, albeit with mixed results - has weakened in the face of increasingly powerful alternative providers: satellite channels or streaming platforms. These competitors, such as Sky or Netflix, operate to a global commercial logic in which 'territories' - not defined by either established national or regional boundaries - are conceived as markets not cultures. This new logic does not entirely displace or supersede the older logics of analogue broadcasting but introduces new layers of spatial complexity that need to be investigated and analysed.
