Eric Schmidt and Jared Cohen:"The New Digital Age"'s Futurist Schlock | New Republic - 0 views

  •  
    "The sewing machine was the smartphone of the nineteenth century. Just skim through the promotional materials of the leading sewing-machine manufacturers of that distant era and you will notice the many similarities with our own lofty, dizzy discourse. The catalog from Willcox & Gibbs, the Apple of its day, in 1864, includes glowing testimonials from a number of reverends thrilled by the civilizing powers of the new machine. One calls it a "Christian institution"; another celebrates its usefulness in his missionary efforts in Syria; a third, after praising it as an "honest machine," expresses his hope that "every man and woman who owns one will take pattern from it, in principle and duty." The brochure from Singer in 1880-modestly titled "Genius Rewarded: or, the Story of the Sewing Machine"-takes such rhetoric even further, presenting the sewing machine as the ultimate platform for spreading American culture. The machine's appeal is universal and its impact is revolutionary. Even its marketing is pure poetry:"

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious: Transmedia tools - Conducttr Mobile and Weavr - 0 views

  •  
    Conducttr has been around for a while as a tool for automating the telling of a narrative over several platforms - online, text messages and so on. This seems like the very logical next step, to take it out from the laptop or tablet and into the world of mobile. A three-part ecosystem, where the audience takes part of a mobile app which lets them take part of different "Worlds", each belonging to a separate story or story world, the designers of the narrative get a "cloud-based network intelligence" and the developers get an API to play around with.

Philips city.people.light - discover how cities can be enhanced with urban lighting - 0 views

  •  
    It is essential for everyone to understand what lies ahead, especially during times of crisis like we have experienced recently. This is why, historically, Philips has always had a sincere interest in studying and anticipating what comes next, whether it be in the next quarter or in three decades' time. Perhaps by virtue of the company's specific regional roots and cultural heritage, one of the guiding principles in the approach adopted by Philips' 'explorers of the future' has always been to involve and engage external and independent experts, thinkers and creative leaders in open platforms for dialog and exchange.
