WFMU Wants to Change How Media Talks to Its Audiences and Raises Money. "It's super ambitious -- and a culmination of my life's work," Ken Freedman, general manager of beloved independent radio station WFMU, tells Billboard.

WFMU Wants to Change How Media Talks to Its Audiences and Raises Money

He's referring to Audience Engine, a free and (truly) open-source piece of software, developed by Bocoup that Freedman oversaw the creation of.

Cairo: This time last year, the global media was in a frenzy with sensationalized catch phrases labeling the Arab revolutions as the “internet uprisings” and “Facebook revolutions.” While technology certainly contributed to their success, the revolutions in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya were not technological revolutions.

Social media did not create these revolts, but it did keep the movements alive and connected. Technology allowed the world to watch and spread the onset of protest — it helped link activists, build political networks and galvanize a movement that led to the toppling of autocrats. In a nutshell, technology opened our eyes and enabled the communication needed in the long fight for change, in a region plagued with despotism. Although little has changed in the day-to-day lives of many Arab citizens, innumerable lessons have been learned since the uprisings.
