INTERMEDIAL SPACES
Artists no longer confine themselves to planning contents, but propose complex environments where audiences are free to interact, often managing the transitions from one medial domain to another, full integration of real and virtual spaces. In these cases the term intermedia is sometimes used. According to Randall Packer, "the intermedial is the medium that lies between pure media, that connects the media, that reveals relationships between media and the way in which media interact with one another". According to Ian Blom, "it indicates a third, new form of media characterized by transformative qualities".

BASHIBA develops ideas into concepts. Some of those concepts survive to become products. The transition from Cool Idea to Powerful Concept to Must Have Product requires constant nurturing and constant exposure to constructive feedback.
 
July 2007: A live, self-generative financial TV channel that is inspiring, beautiful, informative, relaxing and permanently changing.
