You wear it well - Wearable Technology Show 2015, London 11th March 2015martinjgale
Technology is moving so fast that it’s easy to get bogged down in the technology, facts and figures — gadgets, sensors, data volumes etc etc. This is all interesting, but actually what difference can and will it make?
Accessible version: http://wearability.org/wearable-future-accessibility.html
This presentation for CSUN 2016 explores the current landscape of wearable devices and how future devices will impact the lives of people with a physical, sensory, and/or cognitive disability.
FutureM 2014
Anatomy of a Viral Video
Speakers:
Eric Williamson (@edubble_u) SVP, Director of Digital & Content Strategy, Mullen
Kazi Ahmed (@kaziahmed) VP, Group Digital Director, Mediahub/Mullen
Jon Ruby VP, Creative Director, Mullen
In advertising, we work tirelessly to create what we hope is incredible branded content and then pay to get it in front of as many of the right people as possible. Our success is measured by some combination of business results, brand surveys and industry awards. But what really gets our blood pumping is when our work grabs the attention of the masses and goes viral. At Mullen, we recently had the good fortune of experiencing this with a video we created for American Greetings’ Mother’s Day campaign.
Naturally, when you do something great, you want to understand how you did it, so you can do it again. Our project post-mortem revealed some interesting insights about how and why something spreads among consumers and media, which is what we will share in this presentation, “Anatomy of a Viral Video.”

Cognizant Making AI Real with MicrosoftSteve Lennon

Report 2 empathic things – intimate technology - from wearables to biohackin...Rick Bouter
In the second report we focused on the personalized internet of things. We are witnessing a computer boom in terms of kinds, shapes and sizes – around, on or inside the body. Therefore we explored the coming transition toward a more empathic and contextual form of computerization. The emergence of wearable computing and other forms of empathic ‘things’ seems a logical further step: even more intimate, more human-oriented, and ubiquitous. We explored this development and present seven manifestations that can define the impact on business, such as the ‘quantified employee’ and the ‘body as the new password’.

The Future of Advertising: How brands can embrace miraculous new technologies...Leo Burnett
Leo Burnett Worldwide and Contagious Magazine present Wildfire, a look 60 months into the future to offer a head-start on the most significant technological innovations that they believe will redefine how brands connect with people.
Wildfire explores how technology might be empathetically applied to the natural cadence of our daily lives in order to make routine activities and behaviors more streamlined, meaningful or entertaining. This is a future where brands are ideally positioned to create the kinds of small and vital wonders that we soon won't imagine being able to live without.

Infuse HUMANITY into everything (or everything it will evolve without it)

In the past few years, information technology has become increasingly personal and social and has made its presence very much felt. The emergence of wearable computing and other forms of empathic ‘things’ seems a logical further step: even more intimate, more human-oriented, and ubiquitous. There are more and more devices that count our steps, take our blood pressure or measure the indoor temperature, track our location or conversations.
We are witnessing a computer boom in terms of kinds, shapes and sizes – around, on or inside the body – that behave increasingly smart and link up more and more intuitively with man’s extremely personal and natural interface.
In the next decade Personal Computing will become really personal: inside, on and around the person with attention for the context of the individual. In this study we explore this development and present seven manifestations that can define the impact on business, such as the ‘quantified employee’ and the ‘body as the new password’

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.
