The workshop aimed at creatively explore new and disruptive scenarios to define the evolution of broadcast TV in term of user experience, enabling technologies and industry involvements.

Students worked in a multidisciplinary class, following a design process that will range from a preliminary research phase untile the final concept development. The mid-term results was presented in Rome - Italy - to RAI New Media where students had also the opportunity to conduct some fieldwork.
