disclaimers

“Life is as tedious as a twice- told tale vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man.” - William Shakespeare, King John, III.iv

disclaimers

smartphones? which ﬂavor?

these are dark days...

where an imperial army holds power...

but small bands of Freedom Fighters brave incredible odds...

microchoices

“Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?” - William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night, II.iii

microchoices

did Roentgen, Torvalds, & Berners-Lee get it wrong?

mHealth requires commercialization before commons?

do we *need* the ‘dark side?’

mobile health apps on your phone?

did you pay for them?

choice + control

we don't even know we have it.

for open source to work, people have to be ﬁghting to take control back?

we can’t feel the force (either side).

“You are beaten. It is useless to resist. Don’t let yourself be destroyed as Obi-wan did.” - Darth Vader to Luke

“How far that little candle throws his beams! So shines a good deed in a naughty world.” - William Shakespeare, Merchant of Venice, V.i

personal context + individual relevance

“The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted, uncared for, and deserted by everybody. The greatest evil is the lack of love and charity, the terrible indiference towards one’s neighbor.” - Mother Theresa

“What you can do, we cannot do, and what we can do, you cannot do, but together we can do something beautiful.” - Mother Theresa

“Come with me. It is the only way.” - Vader to Luke after mindjob: “I am your father.” (1:52:29)

“Tis in ourselves that we are thus and thus. Our bodies are our gardens to the which our wills are gardeners.” - William Shakespeare, Othello, I.iii

“R2, take good care of Master Luke. And do take good care of yourself.” - C-3PO

“The quality of mercy is not strain’d; it droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath. It is twice blest. It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.” - William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice, IV.i

Only commercial mobile is capable of doing this?

*this* is not mHealth.

this is mHealth.

mmmm.Health.

Dak: Feeling all right sir? Luke: Just like new Dak, how bout you? Dak: Right now I feel like I could take on the whole empire by myself. Luke: I know what you mean.

Macbeth: If we should fail? Lady Macbeth: We fail! But screw your courage to the sticking place, and we’ll not fail. - William Shakespeare, Macbeth, I.vii
