Media is easy to absorb
difficult to filter.

Its current "filters" are
nice
simple
categories

There is a channel of comedy
a network for cartoons and shopping and sex and so on.

Each channel delivers formatted content produced
by journalists and scriptwriters for easy consumption.

However, formatted categories can belie the mediated experience. The  
SFMC prefers media filters.

A [person] as a media filter; or
A [pattern of people] as a media filter.

Each month the San Francisco Mediatrips Competition will host a new  
competition. The subject/theme/filter will be a [person] or a [pattern  
of people]. Contestants are asked to find content related to the  
competition's subject/theme/filter and re-use it to create a new media  
experience.
