My contribution to New Tech Post comes from years of experience making filmic sense out of chaotic real-time events. New knowledge and insight is being generated in a similarly constant and chaotic manner, and I regard it a key part of my job to access what is really relevant in a constantly-evolving social and technological space and to make it accessible to our readers.
