Abstract:
We are living in a post-WIMP world. Indeed, more and more users access information, communicate and operate mobile information appliances foregoing the still common mouse and keyboard of yonder. However, no matter how powerful or elegant the new mobile devices are, it is the user interface that ultimately governs how successful new devices or systems will be. We looked at current multimedia systems and their applications to virtual environments and ubiquitous computing. Multimedia user interfaces currently engage people using images, video and sound but virtual environments not only involve interactive 3D graphics, but further need to take more advantage of our senses through spatial audio, haptics and many other novel and exciting communication modalities. This talk explored key research issues and future directions up to and before the prophesized singularity. (note: Some videos are not presented here)

This presentation is part of a 4 hours workshop called "Innovation Workshop –Games and Reality". During the workshop students from the Recanati School of business in Tel Aviv University thought of games and startup related games ideas and "fought" against each other discovering if their idea has a chance to become the great big next hit.
I really liked some of the ideas, for example: a game you need to run in real life in order to "charge" your character in the game. A game you "scan" your real pet and play with it in a virtual world, including a virtual dog fight with real dogs . A real cart driving game you play wearing Google glass. The glass allows you to see virtual power ups or virtual avatars to enhance your driving experience (did someone say zombies)
For me the workshop was really fun. I hope the students had fun as well and I do hope some of these ideas will become actual games.
Frugal Innovation - Frugal innovation or frugal engineering is the process of reducing the complexity and cost of a product and its production. moladi building technology for housing construction www.moladi.co.za a n example of formwork technology
To win in today's fast-paced and hyper-competitive business environment, companies must learn to collaborate and partner extensively to innovate cost-effectively and sustainably under severe resource constraints. In this engaging presentation, Navi will unveil a groundbreaking business paradigm: Frugal Innovation. Frugal innovation is the ability to actively engage internal and external partners to do more with less: that is, to co-create significantly more business and social value for the entire ecosystem while minimizing use of increasingly limited resources. Thousands of inventive firms in resource-constrained emerging markets like India, China, Africa, and Brazil apply frugal innovation techniques to co-develop with partners affordable and sustainable solutions that deliver more value to customers at lower cost. These innovators extensively leverage public, private, and non-profit partnerships throughout the entire product development cycle. In this keynote, Navi will vividly describe how frugal innovation is practiced today by leading firms worldwide, and show how you can apply new collaborative tools, techniques and mindset to deeply engage partners to address the needs of cost-conscious and eco-aware consumers worldwide.

What happens when we move from billions of mobile phones around us, to networks made of ten, one hundred or one thousand times more nodes? What are going to be the necessary features of these networks, which will constitute the Internet of Things? How can we think about, and must start planning for the nature of this new fundamental entity quickly emerging?

Self-Replication, Strandbeest, and the Game of Life What von Neumann, Jansen,...CA API Management
Mike Amundsen's, Director API Architecture at CA Technologies, Keynote from API Strategy and Practice Conference 2014
Here's a link to the full text of Mike's talk: http://g.mamund.com/apistrat2014-talk
APIs as both an ecosystem and an economy are at a crossroads. The last few years have shown continued growth in both providers and consumers and, it’s easy to see Moore’s Law in effect in the API Ecosystem.
However, to sustain this level of exponential growth, this level of scaling in the ecosystem, we need to come up with ways to also scale the API Economy. All indications are demand will continue to grow. But hardly a day goes by when we don’t see evidence that the API economy the ‘engine of execution’ is buckling under the strain. This is the logical outcome of a system over-taxed, under-powered, and inadequate to the task. Demand is outstripping supply and the system can’t keep up. The way to solve this problem is to start thinking in new ways and this talk is an attempt to get us to do that; to kick-start the creative process.
From technology to software, artificial intelligence to virtual reality, Future in Quantum covers it all.

SXSW 2015 - Storytelling Engines for Smart Environmentscalmr.io
The Information Age moved us into a Connected Economy but didn’t fully restored the relational Poetry it had conceiled. The Sensor Age is finally here. We can now fully awake the Poetic Potential of the Internet of things. The physical world is the new platform (again).
Removing the friction between the various touchpoints of a typical daily human experience to create Meaningful Immersive Experience that doesn't isolate the user has proven to be a very challenging task.
The panel will be organized to navigate the limitless possibilities of the various services, products tools and mindsets that allows any Urban Planners, any changemaker, any Retail Strategist, any Creative Director, any Storyteller, any Poet to create Experiences that seamlessly incorporate Human Behaviors, the ever-growing types of wearables & connected objects, mobile devices & their applications, environmental media systems (sounds, video, special effects) and a vast array of Sensors and Sensors Networks.

DocAviv - Roadmap to the Future of DocsBrian Newman
Slides from my workshop at DocAviv with Hypermedia. A six hour, three part, workshop. Some new material here, but repeats some of my similar filmmaker workshops.
My recent panel presentation for the Sofia Film Fest Meetings. Not much new here if you've seen my other recent lectures, but many attendees wanted to have access to the slides.
DIY Days - Reclaiming DIY: it’s not JUST a business modelBrian Newman
My slides from DIY Days in NYC March, 2011. I have very minimal notes in these, but I think you can get the gist of the speech. The video will be online at my blog before too long.
My recent talk for the New York Foundation for the Arts - about using technology to connect with audiences and build a fan base. A little bit about where things are going with transmedia and how artists might use these techniques.
My speech on innovating new business models for transmedia (and cross-platform, generally) as given at the Pixel Lab, Wales. Applies to media generally, I think.
The second half of the Atlanta, PushPush weekend seminar was on audience engagement strategies. This includes everything from social media to transmedia and ended with a workshop on planning the distribution and outreach for six local films. I don't know why SlideShare duplicates the word distribution three times.....
A talk I gave in Glasgow for BAFTA Scotland at the CCA - for Scottish Students on Screen. The attendees were mainly students graduating from University. This presentation combines a few things from other presentations, but I always upload them so people can follow links, etc. The end of this one is pretty new.
My presentation for Shooting People and DCTV on distribution and engaging audiences. A new presentation with some mixed older materials and some very new stuff summarizing how to think about transmedia.
A workshop on how to make a sustainable living as a filmmaker in today's marketplace, and in light of "free." Good for organizations and other artists, and not just about free, but about how to survive a bad marketplace using new tools. Some new stuff, some old
My very quick presentation at DIY Days Philly on how filmmakers and any other artist can make a living in a world where everything seems to be available for free.
How can filmmakers and other artists make a living in a world of free content? Some possibilities are explored in this presentation I gave at the Edinburgh Film Festival.
This is the presentation I'm giving at the Open Video Conference at NYU. It's a very simplistic presentation and is missing many of my comments, but I added notes that give the general gist of what I'm talking about.
Tribeca All Access - Online Tools, making money and building audiences for filmBrian Newman
My presentation at the 2009 Tribeca All Access kick-off. I don't tend to use the notes, and just speak, so these notes don't show everything I say, but it gives you a sense. Also, most of the videos are linked, and I show one video in its entirety (Thru-You). I think I've given credit to all stats, sources, images and films but let me know if you see something missing. Also, this presentation assumes a mixed audience - some very tech, some not at all, so it will be basic stuff for those of you really into this arena.

As a film director, I have always been awestruck by the magic of animation. Animation, a medium once considered solely for the amusement of children, has undergone a significant transformation over the years. Its evolution from a rudimentary form of entertainment to a sophisticated form of storytelling has stirred my creativity and expanded my vision, offering limitless possibilities in the realm of cinematic storytelling.

For lack of a better title... Thanks to Lance Weiler and New School for organizing DIY Days NYC
So I think I should give some background on this presentation. The idea for this came out of this year’s Sundance and Slamdance Film Festival
I was there speaking at this Summit organized by Slamdance and Lance Weiler
Lance and I were sharing a condo together, so we got to talk a lot about the events of the day
you know, spend some real quality time, share stories, relax and what not
and our talks kept coming back to all of the distribution panels going on, and how they were, in one sense, good because filmmakers need to be talking about new models of distribution. But now it seems that everywhere we turn, that’s the entirety of the conversation, on panel after panel - I think I attended four or five in Park City alone. And the information is rarely new. So not to pick on this particular panel, which I attended and which was run by people I know and like, but in one sense, the conversation is getting utterly boring
where was the innovation? None of these panels is really focused on what we considered to be interesting - inventing new models of storytelling and of connecting with audiences. i mean sure, some people were talking about exciting things like transmedia
but most were talking about it in terms of being multi-platform, or marketing your film. Now, Lance and I like transmedia, we talk about it all the time but most of this talk is about cramming all this stuff into an old world box
It’s a continuation of trying to kinda adapt, but not really. it’s not very fun or exciting really
and while every single panel talks about innovation...it’s really not
everywhere we turned it was boring conversations that really weren’t about innovation at all
but rather were about trying to adapt new stuff to fit old ways of doing things
which leads to stagnation
so, what would be strategies for innovation. Well, there’s a lot of theories out there about innovation - lots of almost self-help books about how to become innovative, and some of them are pretty smart. I believe in a few of them, but what I think is one of the best ways to think about it is by looking at innovation in the arts
when the arts get stuck in repetition it is useful to look to the avant-garde
This was innovation. For those of you who don’t know your art history, it’s Claude Monet’s “impression:sunrise” It was the painting that gave the movement its name, which was a put down actually (looks like an impression of a painting). Now the Impressionists weren’t the first to innovate because of technology and theories, but we’re going to start with them. First, and most importantly, nothing they did was completely new. Many of the techniques you see here had been done before, but they were the first to combine them all together.
The first innovation was premixed paints in lead tubes. As Renoir said, without this new technology there would be no impressionism. You used to have to grind your paints yourself and keep them in dried animal stomachs, among other things, but now you could get outdoors and take your paints with you.
They also took the latest scientific theories of optics (divisionism especially did this), spectrography and the study of light, optical realism this was also the time of the rising popularity of photography, but note that they weren’t using the actual mechanism of photography, but rather the idea of the realism it allowed, the idea of it. They were also influenced by the art practice of Japan, which was becoming more accessible and by notions of how to represent reality. As well as positivism and the adherence to the scientific method. All of this combined for important new art.
So, by combining the latest technology and the latest theories they got great art. This has been the history of the avant-garde. We see it not just with Impressionism, but also with other avant-garde movements
so if you take the typewriter, a mind-blowing technology when it was introduced (this one is Jack Kerouac’s btw, not a surrealist, but cool nonetheless)
and add in one of the hottest theories of the time - psychoanalysis, maybe mix in the concurrent rise of the detective story, perhaps as seen in Fantomas series of films
equals surrealism - automatic writing, - Breton believed that the typewriter allowed you to let you unconscious flow more quickly and unimpeded revealing true unconscious thoughts. This let to automism in general with drawing and painting, where they too could lead to the unconscious
and when coupled with film technology....we got things like Un Chien Andalou -
Again, technology plus theory. There are numerous examples, here’s one more
October 1966 Robert Raushenberg and the engineer Billy Kluver of Bell Labs, created E.A.T.
10 artists: Robert Rauschenberg, John Cage, David Tudor, Yvonne Rainer, Deborah Hay, Robert Whitman, Steve Paxton, Alex Hay, Lucinda Childs and Öyvind Fahlström. 30 engineers - Their collaboration produced many "firsts" in the use of new technology for the theater, both with specially-designed systems and equipment and with innovative use of existing equipment. Closed-circuit television and television projection was used on stage for the first time; a fiber-optics camera picked up objects in a performer's pocket; an infrared television camera captured action in total darkness; a Doppler sonar device translated movement into sound; and portable wireless FM transmitters and amplifiers transmitted speech and body sounds to Armory loudspeakers. from: http://www.9evenings.org /
Again, technology plus theory. So what would this mean today?
what happens if we combine all of these new tools in our story-telling? what effect will they have?
what happens if we combine all of these new tools in our story-telling? what effect will they have?
I haven’t the slightest, the foggiest idea
That’s what I’m hoping that you as filmmakers discover next. That we, as a community, keep in mind Add a note of caution//clarification - not saying this is for everyone, or that
we stand now at a moment of multiple possible futures; what it’s going to be is anyone’s guess, but if we look back at the history of technology, every new technology offered similar endless possibilities which were quickly cut down to one
the phonograph was originally intended by Edison to be participatory, not to just sell you pre-recorded albums. But, along came the men in suits and all of the future possibilities of recording were reduced to one - selling recorded music - in very short time
if utopian visions for technology panned out, Ham radio would have brought democracy to the world, allowing us all to converse, but that didn’t happen either
so this is my plea to you in this room
there are endless possibilities
If we want to really think about the future of media, we can’t leave it to the suits.
Those most threatened by the disruptions of digital aren’t aging dinosaurs
they’re actually vicious, blood-sucking beasts hell-bent on staying alive and thus far they will use policy and their power to wrest back this control. We’re living in a wondrous moment of change. It can seem scary, but it’s not. What’s scary is the future that might be built instead of the one that could. So instead of endless possibility, we’ll get there version of the future
because all we’ll get is a fancy, internet connected TV set that allows us to watch any movie ever made on demand yeah, it will really blow us away like that good ol’ memorex tape. and it will be TV everywhere
and we’ll be able to watch it all at once and comment on it and gossip about it with our friends via twitter and foursquare
and buy stuff that’ll be just great....
but that’s not the innovation we need or deserve If all we get out of this is a fancy TV set, we’ve failed. If all we get is our indie films on Netflix, we’ve failed We are in danger of what Jaron lanier calls “lock-in” where the future is governed by the rules of the past and can no longer be changed
We need to become actively involved in innovating for the future. If we are to progress as a society we need to embrace this change. We, cultural producers and arbiters, curators, exhibitors, need to lead the innovation because if we don’t, the wrong people will.
So that’s my challenge to you as artists - invent the future we deserve
