What’s the value in immediacy?
13/05/2008I’ve been battling with a problem (one must put issues in relative perspective with all the tragedies in China and Myanmar atm) in the recent days. As some may know, I’m doing a motorcycle trip through Europe in July. I want to be able to track my whereabouts and shoot some video and then post it online to share the experience of trip to the extent its possible. However, as I’m thinking about the trip I’m not sure if I should be posting the video online immediately as I shoot it, without any editing, or wait until I get back from the trip to post it all online edited and streamlined.
I know it’s like reality TV, if I post the videos online from all over Europe, but is there really any value in immediacy compared to posting the stuff online later?
