work principles
in media, there is huge potential for multi-dimensional lock-in. we make sure you don’t get trapped.
we build our solutions on the shoulders of successful open source software.
active membership in Opencast and committing back is more than lip service.
entwine knowledge in motion
our “carrot”
media will change the way we
teach and learn
audio and video represent tomorrow’sinformation streams
technology can be designed in a way that it’s both elegant and easy to use and
doesn’t take away your freedom
media with a vision

media design
successful media strategies need design from source through distribution.
media design is about technology, perception,social aspects, policies and much more
what is media? what do you need it for today? what will it mean to you tomorrow?

beyond encoding
media is one heavy stream of information
media is a learning resource ifsearchable and browsable
media is social and enabling when shared, connected and enhanced
media secures investment with the potential to further leverage that investment
entwine knowledge in motion
thinking ahead
choose systems with open and documented integration points
foresee areas of change and growth
insist on standardization to prevent lock-in of any sorts
be aware that metadata is the holy grail of sustainability

why matterhorn?
remember “beyond encoding”?
matterhorn was developed with higher ed in mind by higher ed institutions
google your video
support for learning analytics
higher ed have software, processes and policies in place. integration is number one
requirement

even more reasons
one system to record them all
a different kind of vendor
your opinion matters
you are looking at the early beginnings
feel free to leave anytime
entwine knowledge in motion
do you speak...?
authentication and authorization
automated scheduling and recording
distribution to learning management systems and the rest of the world
“integration” with end users
entwine knowledge in motion
