2008: Audio & Music Brief

We’re interested in most things! But more specifically, here are some areas where we could use some inspiration.

  • Visualising radio – radio is increasingly being consumed through devices with screens – from digital TVs to mobile phones – what could we do?
  • Music discovery – the BBC has always played an influential role in introducing people to new music. How does the BBC maintain this role and how do we find a balance between editorial recommendations (our producers and presenters) and harnessing the collective power of our audiences?
  • Mobile – how do we better serve listeners whose primary platform is a mobile rather than a PC?
  • Personalisation – lots of websites use personalisation or automated recommendations. How could this technology best be applied to BBC radio and music content and how could we provide something unique?
