HOW CAN TECHNOLOGY HELP?? The National Assembly of State Arts Agencies (NASAA) offers a Technology Strategy Sampler . State arts agencies today must contend with shrinking budgets and reduced funds for programs, operations, personnel and communications. Travel restrictions have reduced opportunities for face-to-face contact with constituents. At the same time, demands for the use of new technology are increasing. There are rising expectations of connectedness and immediacy among constituents. The public expects 24/7 access to information and real-time updates of important issues and opportunities. Also, given the state fiscal environment, it's never been more important for state arts agencies to be able to express their value in clear, accessible ways. To navigate these com plex intersections, state arts agencies have become highly creative in their uses of technology to manage their resources, operate efficiently and provide services to the public. This sampler offers an introduction to the ways that state arts agencies are using new technology to meet their communications and public outreach goals. For more information, follow the weblink above or contact Communications Manager Sue Struve.

NEW IDEAS FOR MUSIC INDEPENDENTS… IMPALA celebrated its 10th birthday at Berlin Music week in September 2010, and highlighted levelling the playing field and reversing the current market share trend as key objectives for the next ten years. Helen Smith, Executive Chair of IMPALA said "The week has been a great opportunity to look at what we have learned over ten years and focus on how to get a better deal moving forward - for collective licensing, for online music services, for mechanical licensing, for talent development and for anti-piracy settlements such as Kazaa." Billboard Global Editor Mark Sutherland tested IMPALA's plan to develop sports style mechanisms to promote talent development through transfer fees and sharing 5% to 10% of collecting society revenues according to new releases rather than market share.

The time has arrived to seriously re-assess the role of the country's chief cultural policy body. I believe it is time for the Australia Council to be abolished."
