AIF on iTunes

Looking for a new way to experience the Aspen Ideas Festival? Check out our channel on iTunes U. We've curated some of the best from the 2011 Festival in our tracks on the Frontiers of Medicine, Growing the U.S. Economy, What is "Happiness"?, Green Tech to Clean Tech, the Learning Landscape and the State of the Union. Users of iTunes can subscribe to a whole track or pick and choose sessions from across the Festival from the iTunes store.

Since the birth of the Ideas Festival, we've pondered ways not only to spread these ideas further but involve audiences focused on learning. Apple recently relaunched iTunes U with a new app for iPhone and iPad and the world's largest online catalog of free educational content. We're excited to be part of the growing stable of providers to iTunes U, including the New York Public Library, Stanford, Yale and many others.

If you have iTunes installed, you can launch the Ideas Festival Channel and start browsing our selection of video podcasts from the 2011 festival. More sessions will be added soon, and we'll be adding clips and full sessions from the 2012 festival this summer.
