The document discusses emergent technologies and singularitarianism. It provides definitions of emergent technology from websites and dictionaries, and compares this to the definition of evolution. It discusses how technologies evolve in a similar way to natural evolution. It then defines singularitarianism as the belief that superintelligence will be created through technological advancement, and may lead to technology evolving without human guidance. It provides opinions on what may occur at the technological singularity, including drastic changes and technology accelerating its own progress.

The document discusses the increasing integration of technology into human lives through social networks and personal electronics. It argues that fully embracing this technological revolution in education and culture can be beneficial for learning and growth. It also covers topics like the technological singularity, challenges of biotechnology, and the potential future focuses of medicine on enhancement rather than just disease. Throughout, it emphasizes viewing technology and its impacts optimistically while incorporating diverse views into discussions.
This document provides an overview of Jacque Fresco's vision for a resource-based economy and The Venus Project. It discusses how future advances in science and technology will allow more decision making to be done by machines. It argues that previous attempts at social change like Marxism and utopian socialism failed because they lacked comprehensive plans and methods for implementation. It proposes that a resource-based economic model could maximize technology to enhance all human life and protect the environment. For social change to occur, outdated political and economic systems must lose public support. True change requires addressing problems from a global, systematic perspective rather than through individual persuasion. An internationally accepted comprehensive blueprint and planning council could help transition the world to a more equitable resource-based
Effect of the singularity on social institutions indelmount
This document discusses the impact of technological progress and the Singularity on social institutions. It argues that technology has advanced exponentially throughout history, with accelerating growth rates. The Singularity refers to a future period where technological change will be so rapid it transforms human life. Advances in artificial intelligence and nanotechnology are expected to drive future innovations. This could fundamentally change institutions like healthcare, with nanotechnology enabling disease prevention and indefinite longevity. However, others argue Kurzweil's vision exceeds biological limits and that powerful virtual environments may be preferred to biological enhancements. The effects on spirituality are also uncertain given open questions around machine consciousness.

Predicting mid-range global futures (2005-2050)Danila Medvedev
The document discusses various approaches to thinking about and predicting the future, including time periods to consider, common visions of the future, challenges, and who engages in future thinking. It notes limitations of science fiction, futurology, individual futurists, and short-term corporate predictions, and advocates for a systematic, technology-focused approach incorporating exponential trends to more accurately envision the mid-range future from 2005 to 2050.
The document discusses different approaches to envisioning the future, including scenarios, visions, and an "open source" approach. It suggests that participants in a conference clarify their visions of preferred futures by comparing and choosing between contrasting possible futures in different areas. Participants are then asked to envision and share in 3 minutes 3 short, positive changes they want to see by 2025, finding at least one common change with another person.
This document examines the Occupy Wall Street movement through the lens of complexity science. It summarizes that the movement emerged from a complex environment influenced by external factors like high unemployment and the Arab Spring protests. Certain independent agents like Adbusters, David Graeber, and Anonymous played key connecting and persuasive roles in spreading the movement. The use of general assemblies and working committees allowed for open communication and the emergence of clusters around ideas, giving the movement an adaptive structure to respond to internal and external changes. Leaders can learn from this that disequilibrium provides energy for adaptation, rather than something to avoid, and that clusters will form organically rather than through direct control.
The document discusses specialization and its effects on society. It notes that specialization has led to feelings of isolation, confusion, and individuals leaving responsibility for thinking and social action to others. Specialization has also resulted in biases that aggregate and lead to conflicts between groups. The document advocates for more comprehensive understanding between specialized groups and individuals.
This document provides an overview of the State, Technology & Social Policy module. It introduces topics that will be covered over the next 8 weeks through lectures, seminar presentations, and virtual seminars. Students will be divided into small groups to work on policy issues and present their findings at an end of module conference. The first virtual seminar discusses whether technology controls us or if we control technology, exploring the concepts of technological determinism and the social shaping of technology. While technological change is complex with many influencing factors, technology can impact power dynamics in society.
Quick tools for thinking about future impacts of change: 'for there is nothin...Wendy Schultz
This document contains the transcript from a presentation by Wendy Schultz on thinking about the future. Some of the key points discussed include:
- Change happens gradually through overlapping waves rather than straight lines, due to human complexity.
- New ideas and technologies proposed by visionaries and entrepreneurs may disrupt existing paradigms but not necessarily become established.
- When new inventions are introduced, unintended and unexpected consequences are likely to emerge through interactions with existing systems.
- It is important to consider different perspectives and worldviews when thinking about potential futures.
Enthralled by the immediate hicss comple xity symposium - v4.0 - 5jan2016Mark Dixon
This document provides a summary of a presentation on why humans have not adopted smarter city technologies faster. It discusses how human biology and neuroanatomy have programmed us to focus on immediate needs and threats, rather than long-term challenges. Some of the factors discussed include human phobias reflecting ancient biological programming, primitive reflexes remaining from early development, and Dunbar's number limiting how many social relationships we can maintain. The presentation argues that these biological factors have made it difficult for humans to recognize and address large, long-term issues like climate change and population growth.

Kim Solez Singularity explained promoted winter 2015Kim Solez ,
The document discusses the concept of the technological singularity, which refers to the hypothetical future emergence of artificial superintelligence that greatly surpasses human intellectual abilities. It provides an overview of the main ideas, including the three schools of belief about the singularity (accelerating change, event horizon, intelligence explosion). It also discusses the four main paths to the singularity, including creating an AI that exceeds human intelligence. The document summarizes the history of ideas around the singularity concept from the 1800s onward and perspectives from thinkers like Kurzweil and Hutter on whether the singularity is negotiable or inevitable.
The slide show for ev-ent-anglment 3: Dublin, an event presented as part of the panel "Making Neww Materialisms Matter for Feminist Media Studies" at Console-ing Passions
1) The document discusses W. Brian Arthur's views on the nature and evolution of technology. Arthur believes that while we have extensive knowledge about individual technologies, we lack an overarching theory to explain the dynamics and development of technology as a whole.
2) Arthur provides several definitions of technology, ranging from broad definitions focusing on technology fulfilling human purposes, to more detailed definitions viewing technology as assemblages of components that program natural phenomena to desired outputs.
3) Arthur argues that technology evolves through the combination of scientific advances, the recombining of existing technological components, and incremental improvements through "structural deepening". This evolutionary process has no clear end.
This document provides an overview of the evolving career advice ecosystem. It discusses how careers have changed radically due to technology and will continue accelerating. Traditional top-down career advice models are being replaced by peer-to-peer social network approaches enabled by technology. The document analyzes the career advice space through the lens of evolutionary theory, discussing variation, selection, and amplification of ideas. It argues that punctuated bursts of change are disrupting traditional static career advice systems. Young people now access career information and advice from a wide variety of online and offline sources using their attention in dynamic ways.
The document discusses various topics related to futuring and innovation including:
- Defining what a futurist is and examples of early futurists like H.G. Wells and Jules Verne.
- Techniques for forecasting the future like the Delphi method, scenario writing, and analyzing forces of change.
- Examples of past predictions and technological innovations that came to fruition as well as those that did not.
- The impact of emerging technologies and social media in enabling new forms of communication, collaboration, and sharing of information in real-time across the world.
Coda: The sting in the tail - Meetup session 23William Hall
This is the last of 23 presentations in a series introducing and outlining my hypertext book project, "Application Holy Wars or a New Reformation - A Fugue on the Theory of Knowledge". The project explores the interactions of technology and cognition in the extraordinary evolutionary history of the human species.
A coda is a generally short and more or less independent passage added to the end of a composition so as to reinforce the sense of conclusion. Here I consider the question raised in the title of this Meetup series - what does the understanding of the roles of cognitive technologies developed in this book tell us about the future of humanity? I see three possible scenarios, only one of which is moderately benign.
Which of these will come to pass depends critically on how successful we are at understanding who we are and applying the tremendous body of knowledge we have assembled over our history.
This document summarizes Transhumanism and some of its key principles and figures. It discusses the growing Transhumanist movement and some of the areas of debate between Transhumanists and their critics, referred to as Bioconservatives. These include disagreements around the risks of emerging technologies, human enhancement, and what defines personhood and citizenship. The document advocates for promoting innovation and access to emerging human enhancement technologies while addressing safety and equity concerns.
Transhumanism describes how technology and science may someday change humans so much that we would no longer be considered the same species. Some key ideas discussed include using nanotechnology to build anything from small pieces, putting nanomachines in our bodies to improve health, potentially living forever through advances in medicine, artificial intelligence that can design even smarter machines, and the idea of mind uploading where one's consciousness is copied into a computer. The presentation raises questions about what life and society may be like if scarcity and death are eliminated through these technological changes.
This document discusses the importance of STEM and integrating academic and career technical education. It notes that the fundamental question of the 21st century is how to organize and produce innovation. It emphasizes that the key missing literacy is transdisciplinarity and discusses the need to apply problem solving to real world knowledge.

A weblog (or blog) is a type of website where content is arranged in reverse chronological order. Posts include personal thoughts, links, images, and media. Blogs allow users to express opinions, engage in discussions, and collaborate by sharing knowledge. They promote student learning, motivation, writing skills, and relationship building. However, there are potential problems if students use blogs more for social purposes or if inaccurate information is spread.

Here are two key points of comparison between the red "Make America Great Again" hat and the pink "Pussyhat" in terms of their roles as communication design:
They are both vehicles of communication that carry symbolic meanings. The red hat symbolizes support for Donald Trump and his campaign slogan/message of making America great again. The pink hat symbolizes support for women's rights and the Women's March movement.
However, they differ in how directly they communicate their intended meanings:
- The pink "Pussyhat" very openly and directly displays its meaning through its name and bold pink color/design. It leaves little doubt as to what political stance/movement it represents.
- In contrast, the red "

The Use Of Labelling Of Different Products And Services...Roxy Roberts
The document discusses the evolution of branding from the "Institutional Era" to the current "Human Era". In the Institutional Era, products were branded based on their origin institution. Now, brands are cultural icons and social phenomena that aim to communicate information about themselves like human beings. The paper will analyze this shift from an institutional to human-centric approach to branding. It will also discuss marketing and operational tactics used by managers to shape a brand's future.
Discussions on topics of Architectural Diversity and Design Andrew Gabriel
The document is a discussion post by Andrew Gabriel, a student from India, in an American Diversity and Design course at the University at Buffalo. In the first response, Andrew discusses how the discovery of DNA structure by James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953 led to the development of genetics, which helped understand traits being passed from parents to offspring and aided in disease prevention and treatment. However, he acknowledges that Watson and Crick failed to properly credit Rosalind Franklin, whose work provided key data for their discovery. In the second response, Andrew describes how ramps were originally designed to aid loading but were adapted to promote accessibility and inclusion for people with disabilities.
Technology as a Cultural Practice - UX AustraliaRachel Hinman
How do you design a mobile money service for people in rural Uganda who’ve never had a bank account? How do you test the usability of a mobile phone’s address book for users in rural India who’ve never had an address… yet alone an analog address book?
As cheap PCs and inexpensive mobile phones flood the global market, usability and user experience professionals will encounter more and more questions like these – questions that challenge not only our research tools and methodologies, but our fundamental assumptions about how people engage with technology. In this talk, Rachel will share insights she’s gained through creating experiences that must scale across vastly different cultures. She’ll share her thoughts on the challenges and opportunities designing for global markets will present to the user experience industry in the years to come.
The Global Future 2045 congress in New York City discussed a new strategy for human evolution proposed by the 2045 Initiative. The strategy aims to address global challenges by developing technologies like brain-computer interfaces and android bodies to eventually allow the transfer of human consciousness to artificial carriers. This would reduce suffering and extend healthy lifespans, allowing humanity to pursue greater spiritual, cultural and technological advancement. The congress included an interfaith dialogue on how the strategy relates to issues of science, spirituality and human progress. It highlighted that global crises require global solutions and that continued technological enhancement of humanity could help ensure the long-term survival and development of civilization.

2. WHAT IS ‘EMERGENT TECHNOLOGY’?
DEFINITION BY WEBSITES, DICTIONARY AND PERSONAL OPINION.
“In the history of technology, emerging technologies are
contemporary advances and innovation in various fields of
technology.” - Wikipedia (Article - Emerging Technologies)
“New technologies that are currently developing or will be
developed over the next five to ten years, and which will
substantially alter the business and social environment. These
include information technology, wireless data communication, man-
machine communication, on-demand printing,
biotechnologies, and advanced robotics.” - BusinessDictionary
(Emerging Technologies)
It is easy to tell, just by these two definitions, that the phrase; ‘emergent
technology’ is an over-complication and generalisation of any form of
advance in any field. That is not to say that any “new” invention can be
called emergent, this label is only acceptable on something that contains a
technology/ system/ function that has previously been nonexistent.
New technologies are regularly related to human evolution, which to some
may seem illogical but for me is obvious. If humans can create a way to
whisper to a friend a thousand miles away, that blatantly shows evolution.
To try and prove my point of relation between natural evolution and the use
of emergent technology I will show the definition of evolution and compare
the two.
DEFINITIONS.
DEFINITION - EVOLUTION.
PERSONAL OPINION.
ev·o·lu·tion (v-lshn, v-)
noun.
1. A gradual process in which something changes into a different and usually more complex or better form. See Synonyms at development.
2.
a. The process of developing.
b. Gradual development.
3. Biology
a. Change in the genetic composition of a population during successive generations, as a result of natural selection acting on the genetic
variation among individuals, and resulting in the development of new species.
b. The historical development of a related group of organisms; phylogeny.
3. ANALYSIS OF TERMINOLOGY.
COMPARISON OF THE TERMINOLOGY OF EMERGENT TECHNOLOGY AND EVOLUTION TO FIND CORRELATION.
“In the history of technology, emerging technologies are contemporary advances and innovation in various fields of technology.”
ev·o·lu·tion (v-lshn, v-)
noun.
1. A gradual process in which something changes into a different and usually more complex or better form.
a. The process of developing.
b. Gradual development.
3. Biology
a. Change in the genetic composition of a population during successive generations, as a result of natural selection acting on the genetic
variation among individuals, and resulting in the development of new species.
b. The historical development of a related group of organisms; phylogeny.
“Contemporary advances” is a phrase that means modern
developments, growth within a particular sector.
“Process of developing” and “Gradual Development”.
These are phrases that could be used to describe emerging
technologies.
The word “emerging,” in this context, means
“Newly formed,” or “Appearing as prominent.” If
we compare this to the evolutionary phrase I have
highlighted we can show that, in technologies life-
style, evolution does exist through processes of
elimination, not only this, but natural selection exists
in technology but it is a conscious selection in which
humanism/ social trending/ necessity is the decider.
The only difference viewable from these examples seem to be the difference between technology, which is controlled and
decided upon consciously and natural evolution which is random because of mutation.
4. SINGULARITARIANISM.
This is when things get interesting.
Definition.
“Singularitarianism is a technocentric ideology and social movement
defined by the belief that a technological singularity—the creation of
superintelligence—will likely happen in the medium future, and that
deliberate action ought to be taken to ensure that the Singularity benefits
humans.” Wikipedia - (Article - Singularitarianism)
Although this definition of the Singularity theory is somewhat inclined to
mention the negative ‘side-effects’ that may come from the movement.
To put it simply, singularity is the point in technological evolution in which
technology gets to such a rapid rate of evolution that it can self-evolve
without decisions made by any human mind.
Obviously, due to film and tv, the idea of self-evolution (or AI, Artificial
Intelligence) is frowned upon because of the apparent destruction of
human race. But a Singulartarian (a follower or believer of the idea of
singularity) takes steps to make sure this technology can be controlled in
way that does not diminish the evolution of this technology.
Singularitarianism is also heavily connected to Transhumanism which is
the movement of a positive want of transforming the human condition.
Transhumanists and singularitarians are both inclined to think heavily
on the impact of Singularitarianism on their own lives and possibly even
start preparation which is predicted to be around the date of 2045.
Obviously, because of the magnitude of this supposed movement, it
has a mass ‘cult’ following. There are philosophers and researchers
that have delved into this subject as well as those who promote the
movement.
One of the main “spokes-person” for the movement is Jason Silva who is
known for his documentaries regarding this subject.
I implore you, at this point, to watch this video [ www. http://W ] to fully
understand the intensity of the singularity theory.
5. SINGULARITARIANISM [CONTINUED]
WHAT WILL HAPPEN AT THE SINGULARITAN MOMENT?
Ironically, the Singularitarianism is not recognised by spell-check, which is a great example of how technology has evolved in a way to assist humans.
A question I want to try and answer is;
‘What will happen at the Singularitarian point?’
I will do this by looking into what is said by Silva and Kurzweil, as they are the ‘poster-boys’ for singularitarianism.
Jason silva says; ‘Ideas are just as real as the neurons they inhabit.’ This metaphor describes the effect that an idea can have. If you have an idea to af-
fect the world the we can see, that idea has materialised itself from the image we see in our head to the real object that we can experience with other
senses. This means that we have a constructive force within us to be able to imagine something that does not exist. Silva quotes Terence Mckenna by say-
ing that when humans invented language, that is when biological evolution ceased and we began creating our own evolution through inventing ways to
help ourselves survive.
In a Q&A with Silva [http://singularityhub.com/2012/09/25/singularity-hub-qa-jason-silva-shares-his-motivations-and-vision-with-members/ ] he says this;
“I think the Singularity is a great metaphor that suggests things will change DRASTICALLY. Technology bootstrapping on its own complexity is accelerating
the rate of change exponentially- There’s a great line: “There used to be decades where nothing happens and now we have weeks when decades hap-
pen.”… I think doing what we can to accelerate progress, to find ever more creative ways to transcend our limits, to elevate humanity further and farther
is how we achieve our sense of cosmic heroism… Is using technology to build better technology and solve the grand challenges of humanity a means of
dealing with our mortality? It certainly could be, but it doesn’t make it any less important.”
MY OPINION
By reading his opinions on the subject and analysing what he has said, it is fairly clear that we cannot predict what the world will be when technology
has reached this point. We can only speculate as to wether or not we will ever be able to overcome the questionably set way that nature has directed us.
I believe that we will be able to connect ourselves to technology in a way that seems alien to us at this moment in time but will be the norm when the said
technology exists.
6. WHAT WEBSITES SHOULD WE EXPECT?
WHAT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO US IN THE FUTURE?
As an example of connectivity being visually presented, the website: (http://cinema-series.orange.
fr/evenement/universeries/en/) has made something similar to what we will be trying to accomplish.
This website has tracked american t.v shows and has linked all of the creators and those who
worked on the projects together in an aesthetically pleasing way.
7. CHOSEN BRIEF
D&AD Student Awards 2013
Digital Brief
Brief set by: BBC
What does it mean to be ‘alive’ online?
Background
The BBC is the world’s leading public
service broadcaster. Its mission is to
enrich people’s lives with programmes
that inform, educate and entertain.
BBC Online is unparalleled in delivering
content and services beyond the
expectations of its audience across
ten products (BBC Homepage, Search,
News, Sport, Weather, Knowledge &
Learning, CBeebies, CBBC, iPlayer
and Radio & Music) and four screens
(Connected TV, Desktop, Mobile, and
Tablet).
Traditional broadcasting uses ‘live’ as an
output to connect the audience to events
as they happen. Digital technology allows
a ‘live’ output to become much more
dynamic, multi-faceted and responsive,
ie ‘alive’.
BBC Online also presents the
broadcaster’s output through continuous
access, with live updates, catch-up
services and archive information all in
one place. BBC Online want their service
to be ‘alive’ to new information and for
the context of their audience – mixing
curation and participation.
Creative Challenge
How might we turn otherwise static
websites into pages that feel updated,
dynamic and relevant? How should live
updates sit alongside our archive and
connect to the rest of the BBC’s content?
The London 2012 Summer Olympics,
the UK riots in 2011, Glastonbury
Festival and the recent US election are
all great examples of specific events that
have been enriched by a multi-faceted
live element – coming alive across all
platforms, for all audiences.
Considerations
• Consider the different audiences of
the BBC. What are the specific user
needs and desires? Think about their
key products and screens. Are there
any common needs across multiple
products?
• Will your idea be tailored to a
particular audience or will you create
a more ubiquitous solution that
encompasses everyone’s experience?
• What are the different levels
of audience participation and
interactivity? E.g. social media, apps
or second screen experiences.
• Think about current and future trends.
Who will the BBC’s competitors be in
five years’ time? What technologies
will be available? How might audience
behaviour have changed?
• Consider creating a service blueprint
that brings to life how your proposal
will work across different user
journeys, screens, BBC products, and
with editorial teams etc.
Target Audience
The target audience for the BBC is very
broad – you will need to consider how a
large variety of people will engage with
your idea.
Mandatories
There is no need for code, just
compelling communication of your
vision. Include a convincing rationale
that explains your focus and design
decisions.
Deliverables
Main deliverable: Upload a presentation
film of your work (max. 2 mins) or up to
eight images showing your solution.
Optional supporting material for
presentation film: Up to four images;
interactive work (websites, widgets, apps,
HTML, etc.); supporting information (up
to 400 characters).
Optional supporting material for images:
Interactive work (websites, widgets, apps,
HTML, etc.); supporting information (up
to 400 characters).
Keep any text on images to a minimum;
supporting information can be entered
online.
For full format specs and guidance, see
‘Formatting Your Entries’ on the next
page. Work in formats other than those
outlined will not be accepted.
Deadline
Entries for this brief must be submitted
by Wednesday 20 March 2013.

How might we turn otherwise static websites into pages that

2011, Glastonbury Festival and the recent US election are all
great examples of specific events that have been enriched by a
multifaceted live element - coming alive across all platforms, for
all audiences.
I will continue my research as normally but I will also keep the
brief in mind.
Because of the massive target audience that the BBC has, I will
have to figure out the age-range and class group of the general
audience.
The target audience for the BBC is vary broad - you will need to
consider how a large variety of people will engage with your idea.
Main deliverable: upload a presentation film of your work (max. 2
mins) or up to eight images showing your solution.
8. TARGET AUDIENCE
Television users - this could be any age, sex, race or
job salary due to the availability. There is something for
everybody with the BBC - and the BBC know this.
News followers - the BBC is very well advanced in
its news delivery, as they should, being the first news
channel
iPlayer viewers - because of the huge success of BBC
iPlayer since its launch in September 2008, the BBC
is fully aware that a lot of its audience watch, almost
exclusively, content from iPlayer.
WHO IS THE TARGET AUDIENCE FOR THE BBC CHANNELS?
9. CLOUD SOFTWARE SIMILAR SOFTWARE
The iCloud is Apples way of sharing content that
has come from users and shares that content
across the different platforms that the user has.
The Apple iCloud allows the user to upload
pieces of content (Photos, songs, files) to a
central server and have the ability to retrieve
that piece of content using any one of the
platforms that is connected to the iCloud (Mac,
iPhone etc.)
There are multiple possibilities that are offered
by Apple that allow the user the integrate
all of their platforms, such as Photo Stream
which allows the user the view photos from the
iCloud and this can be done on smartphones,
HDTVs and anything else that supports the
iCloud software. Other services include; iTunes
match, Find my Friends, Find my iPhone, Back
to my Mac and a backup and restore service
that allows the user to backup all of their
information and content.
10. BBC WEBSITE
The BBC site is neat, tidy and easy
to manoeuvre. It is also clean and
from what I can see, it has no
malfunctions.
I do not think that it is the website
itself that is calling for the remake,
but the link between product and
consumer is virtually nonexistent.
I will create my own account and
see if there are any bonuses to
signing up.
11. BBC WEBSITE - Analysis of ‘sign up’.
Immediatly after clicking the sing in button, I was taken to this page which
is a completely different layout and design to the previous page. There is
already a lack of continuity between pages, but it also reveals how solid the
system is. ‘If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it.’
There are two
external ways of
signing up with
BBC, although this
technology is not
new, it is one of the
leading ways to
connect a viewer to
a site.
Knowing that BBC is possibly Britains most trusted business,
there is an expectation of professionalism and BBC is aware of
this and has posted ‘We store your information securely, and
we never share it without your permission.’ This is only there for
peace of mind because it is illegal for BBC to do this anyway.
12. I was very surprised
with the standard of the
registration page. It felt
almost rewarding when
the box turned green. It
is the most simple way to
register and I believe it
has been done well.
I also wanted to see
what BBC would say
if there was an error
in the password boxes
and I was told promptly
and in a way that made
me want to correct this
situation.
BBC WEBSITE - Analysis of ‘sign up’.
13. Apart from getting your name/
email/ username at the top of the
page, there does not seem to be
much benefitto signing up to the BBC
website.
BBC WEBSITE - Analysis of ‘sign up’.
I believe that the typical viewer of this site is currently viewed by the BBC as
being ‘easy to please’ in the sense that they only need to make the website
look good, it does not need to go any deeper. But, apart from iPlayer, there
is nothing interactive about the BBC website.
I will redesign the website and create something that can connect the user to
best parts of the BBC.
15. IDEA GENERATION
To get to our idea we decided to sit and talk through
potential concepts and when we had got to the point where
we had a great idea, Jenny would sketch out the necessary
explanations for the group. These are her sketches.
16. OUR IDEA
CLOUD
PLATFORMCONSUMER USED
BY
SENDS CONTENT
This is our idea. We want to be able to give relevant
content to the consumer and the only practical way to
do this is by having a cloud-type system that can learn
from regular use by the consumer.
This is the first diagram to show this, but I believe there
is a better diagram to show this.
There is the chance in this diagram for
somebody to argue that this is copying Apples
iCloud, and I will agree to an extent. The Apple
iCloud receives information that has been sent
by the user. This information is then stored and
can be accessed through any Apple device that
has iCloud enabled on it.
Our concept is different because instead of
giving your information to the ‘BBC cloud’ and
then accessing that information from a separate
device, the BBC cloud will learn about what type
of information you regularly look at and present
to you related information and content from the
BBC.
The difference will be that the BBC will give
different (but relevant) information back to the
consumer, where as the Apple iCloud gives back
the same information that is put into it.
This learning idea will be structured by a BBC
profile that you can log on to on a range of
device platforms.
17. OUR IDEA
This is the better explanation of
the diagram as opposed to what
was on the previous page.

Our idea revolves around the concept of the BBC learning about what the
consumer wants and to do this we will need to make something that houses
the BBC profile whilst keeping the interactivity that we want. The best idea
we had was to start with an online site, because of the already large use of
iPlayer, and then bleed into other platforms.

These two designs are our ideas for the localising of the profile. They work
in the sense that there is space for content that can be recommended,
although, these designs are not what we had in mind. We will re-design
these and make them more consumer friendly.
20. THE TOOLBAR
This toolbar was created by Sam and Zoe and is the main
recurring theme within our designs. It holds all of the relevant
options to make the experience within the BBC enjoyable, un-
invasive and easy to manoeuvre.
This is the BBC ME
notification icons,
not indifferent to the
notifications icon
on Facebook. This
is where all of your
recommended content
will be revealed to the
consumer.
This is the help centre,
every great website
has a page that helps
the user come to grips
to its unique user face.
This is the Profile
button, this takes you
back to your profile
page and from there
you can manoeuvre
throughout the website.
As well as a help
centre, every website
has a settings page
where users can edit
their details such
as age, name and
preferences.
