Press Event and Private Conference at BMS for Fruttare (Unilever), hosting Ne-Yo and Cher Lloyd.

Hand it to the folks at Golin Harris and Unilever...They held an elegant VIP press and Branding conference at Bennett Media Studio. It was packed with good food, conversations, clever presentations and seemingly a lot of fun.

It was the main stage for announcing the joint deal with Ne-Yo and Cher Lloyd for their song writing talents embracing the inspirational ideas for the Fruttare Brand...kinda clever actually.

The main area was used in the residential part of the Building, providing a home-like feel to the event. Click HERE to review the article on ArtistDirect.

PandoMonthly New York is coming back @BMS

PandoMonthly Presents: A Fireside Chat with Jonah Peretti

Wednesday, September 19, 2012 from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM (EDT), New York, NY

PandoDaily monthly event PandoMonthly New York is coming back this week at Bennett Media Studio.

We are thrilled to have them back again and have a nice chat with Jonah Peretti, co-founder of The Huffington Post and BuzzFeed.

One of the New York Web ecosystem's big advantages is the talent and smarts from its old media roots as applied to decisively new media businesses. Peretti may define where new media is going more than anywhere else right now. That includes the good -- an almost unbelievable ability to grab the world by the lapels and make it laugh and cry but mostly click. And the bad -- a reliance on kittens, fluff, and SEO link bait have been snobby old-media gripes of both The Huffington Post and BuzzFeed.

Is Peretti the future of journalism? And if so, is that a good thing or a bad thing? I expect this to be the central point of our discussion next week, and will say a lot about where media -- one of those lifeblood businesses of New York -- is headed.

Please note that this event is a charity fund raising event to help bring fresh water to Rwanda. Thanks for your support!

Piri Concert with Gamin Kang at BMS

On Jan 17, 2012, Bennett Media Studio again welcomed a full house for an intimate concert of Korean Traditional and Experimental music, with Gamin Kang as the featured artist.

Gamin Concert Jan 17, 2012 from Bennett Media Studio on Vimeo.

Gamin Kang, the main performer of the night on ancient Korean instrument Piri, played together with Satoshi Takeishi on percussions as well as Jin Hi Kim on electric Komungo, which is a traditional Korean stringed musical instrument.

The three artists connected the old and new with traditional Korean instrument—meeting the sophisticated sounds from new experimental languages of contemporary music, offering the audience a real East Asian Cultural feast exclusively at BMS in New York City.

I took this photo of the audience after my closing remarks and asked them to say goodbye to the artists.
