I could talk for 3 hours about why it is important for kids to be globally connected in schools, but in 5 minutes I'll have to bring the funny. Instead of speaking seriously about it, I'll speak srsly about it. When I give full-length workshops about this topic, I use examples like Engrish.com to show what can happen if we are half-assed about understanding and engaging other cultures. @oline73, http://teacherhaines.com

GEORGE HAINES: "The Srsly Global Classroom"

The visual principles of harmony, unity, contrast, emphasis, variety, balance, proportion, repetition, texture, and movement (and others) are widely recognized and practiced, even when they aren’t formally articulated. Creating a good design doesn’t automatically mean creating a good experience. Whitney is an independent user experience designer and consults with startups and major organizations. Clients include SeamlessWeb, Boxee, House Party, US Holocaust Memorial Museum, and Scientific American. She is also a strategic partner with Happy Cog and an advisor to RedStamp.

SUSAN MCPHERSON: The Sun Can Rise Again, Even in Midlife

IGNITE NYC

Hollywood has portrayed an all-powerful government, able to continually track citizens through a variety of sinister means, including satellites, surveillance systems, and biometric sensors. I'll dispel a lot of these myths, tell you what can be done now, and how to best defeat systems that can be used to track you and your whereabouts without your consent. @alexkilpatrick, http://tacticalinfosys.com

Terry Jones: What the Post-It Note Can Teach Us About Apps and Data

IGNITE NYC

In our everyday lives we constantly publish and consume information in ad hoc, unanticipated and highly idiosyncratic ways. But with computers, our experiences are often awkward and rigid, and our actions must be anticipated and permitted. Using familiar examples, this talk will focus on this disparity and argue that people are actually very clever at working with information, and that those things point towards thinner applications that let people interact more directly with information and towards computational storage that works more like Post-it ® notes.

PAUL MARCUM: "Turn On, Weigh In, Tweet Out: Twitter as Your Body Sensor API"

IGNITE NYC

What Google's Marissa Mayer calls "The sensor revolution" is upon us and multiple fitness sensors are on the market. Loic le Meur just called for a "body API" to handle the data these generate. In his talk Paul argues that it already exists and is called Twitter. Tweeters are already sharing #fitstats, weigh-ins, and #nikeplus and Garmin #runs by the thousands each day. It's in Twitter's best interest to encourage this behavior as data is a growing business and in the tweeters' best interest too as illustrated by a recent Kaiser Permanente study but the system needs to be optimized. @jpmarcum, marcum.com

IGNITE NYC

Don't we wanna move faster, write another email, make another phone call while txting and carrying groceries? Well, the thing is, that by acting this way we literally are tricking our bodies to thinking there's a tiger at every beep of the blackberry, and even the iphone and droid. We are letting our sympathetic nervous systems run rampant! And when the body thinks there's a tiger around the corner, it postpones all that "not-important stuff" like filtering the blood, digesting food, repairing microscopic tears in the skin and bones, and saves it for "later" which might as well be "never" if the phone's always beeping. Even if it's an iPhone and it sounds like crickets. Nina, a native New-Yorker, is a 2011 TED Fellow and Fulbright Alum. She is an electrical and biomedical engineer at Columbia University’s Lab for Stem Cells and Tissue Engineering, and adjunct professor of Electrical Engineering at the Cooper Union, teaching a “Bioelectricity” class. She spent her early career in telecom (Avaya Labs), transitioning to biomedical engineering via a Fulbright in Italy (working on an electronic odor detector). She is also a certified yoga instructor. @ninatandon www.ninatandon.com

A look at this thing called love through the lens of food. Taking as tenant Brillat Savarin, the great French gastronome's quote : "Show me what you eat and I will show you who you are," Baltz deconstructs more than mere foodstuffs by revealing the intricate web of desire that both humans and cultures cook up in attempt to taste true love. Emilie Baltz is the founder and creative director of B A L T Z WORKS, a collaborative design consultancy that offers creative communication solutions with a focus on the hospitality industry. Emilie also serves as the creative director at the Museum of Sex, and has taught at Pratt Institute and the Vitra Design Museum Boisbuchet workshops. emiliebaltz.com @junkfoodiebook

CHARLIE BERG – Miles Davis was an Agile Genius

IGNITE NYC

In the album Bitches Brew, Miles Davis put together older, straight-ahead musicians, studio musicians, and young lions to invent a new form of music - fusion. In doing so, Miles provided an "agile" innovation culture, by creating a minimalist, well-defined environment and musical system framework, and then allowed the "developers" (i.e. musicians) to evolve the system. This talk looks at the framework that Miles provided, and the key characteristics that the individual innovators must bring to the table, that resulted in a ground-breaking product. For 40 years, Charlie Berg has also been the quintessential sideman, playing drums and percussion in every musical genre from Afropop to Zydeco (except Country music). He has performed and recorded with acts as various as Don Byron, David Amram, David Byrne (The Talking Heads), Uri Caine, the Klezmatics, Byard Lancaster, Walter Beasley, and Eric Bazilian (The Hooters). Additionally Charlie has kept busy as a serial entrepreneur and CTO for the past 30 years. tacticalbusinesspartners.com

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative

Peter Windle

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction. This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara

Balvir Singh

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup. The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
