August 8, 2021 · 45 min

Show notes

Austin was previously working in the Journalism space when he saw an issue of the loss of trust in media. When you read a newspaper or watch a documentary, how do you understand or trust how Journalist obtained and researched the subject at hand?  As a fellow democracy innovator he seeks to create tools and apps to provide Journalist and media companies with the ability to provide a transparent and public verifiable trail of the journalistic journey that helped to create media pieces. 

You can check out his project at https://www.writeinstone.com/ . 

This is a joint Designing Open Democracy and Innovation Trademarked interview of Austin and his Write In Stone PTY company. Which is of interest to us due to his apps potential contribution to the intersection between democracy and innovative technology startups tackling real cracks in the current social fabric of many nations around the world.  Listen to learn more about how his tool may one day come to power a media outlet near you.
