Apocalyptic Punk

Deus Ex Machina from Seth C Brown on Vimeo.

In this movie a man shares his passion and aspiration towards making his own motor bike. Ultimateley the bike is not that easy to drive. Nonetheless, the pride and satisfaction of creating this apocalyptic thing is epic.

Wim Wenders Bootleg

Eigentlich schleicht man sich ja mit einem  Tonbandgerät in Konzerte, um diese heimlich mitzuschneiden. Zumindest war das der Plot von Diva. 30 Jahre nach Diva hatte ich nun das Vergnügen eine Veranstaltung mit Wim Wenders zu erleben, der über seine zweite Profession – das Photographieren – philosophierte.
Mit freundlicher Genehmigung von wendersimages und der Deichtorhallen Hamburg veröffentliche ich die Aufzeichnung vom 30. Mai 2012 nun im uxHH Radio.

- enjoy

cyborg anthropology

I missed Amber Case’ presentation at Interaction 12 on Solid to Liquid to Air: Interaction Design and the Future of the Interface. But here it is, the webcast_

"Amber Case is a cyborg anthropologist and user experience designer who focuses on mobile software, augmented reality and data visualization, and reducing the amount of time and space it takes for people to connect. Case has been featured in Forbes, WIRED and Time, and also founded Geoloqi.com, a private location sharing application, out of a frustration with existing social protocols around text messaging and wayfinding.

Case has spoken at conferences all around the world including TED and was featured in Fast Company 2010 as one of the Most Influential Women in Technology."

Hamburger Unkonferenz Raum Schiff Erde

Ahoi,

das Raum Schiff Er.de landet im Februar wieder im Jazzclub Stellwerk in Hamburg-Harburg. Wer dabei sein möchte, kann jetzt in unserem Wiki einchecken. Und obwohl am Programm noch fleißig gefeilt wird, zeichnet sich schon jetzt eine spannende und inspirierende Mischung ab.

Diverse Projekte aus den Bereichen Digitales, Interaktionsdesign, Internet, Philosphie und Lötkolben stellen sich vor und werden alleine durch das Motto "Ordung und Chaos" gebändigt!

(Kleiner fraktaler Scherz am Rande: Wofür steht das B. in Benoit B. Mandelbrot? )

Ich hoffe, dass wir an den Erfolg vom letzten Jahr anknüpfen, und dass wir den einen oder anderen Rebooter, Idealisten und Weltverbesserer auf der unkonventionellen Konferenz treffen werden. Hier nochmal die Links_

Ted Nelson at Hypertext 01

This is not my planet. And this is not my conference.

What an opening to a talk at ACM Hypertext 01 by Ted Nelson!

Some quotes:

[2'10"] I think of the world wide web and XML and cascading style sheets is the ultimate triumph of the typewriter over the author. +++ three fundamental problems today: 1) hierarchical file structures 2) simulation of paper 3) the application prison +++ [12'40"] Software is a branch of movie making. +++ [17'50"] The question is about starting over. +++ ZigZag / Authoplectic structures where trees and tables are just edge cases. +++
