Lacey Swain Sub Pop Director of Film & TV Licensing
When computer nerds and bloodsucking tech corporations heartlessly
destroyed the traditional music business model, few mourned its passing.
Seattle’s Sub Pop Records sure didn’t. In the era of computing machines
and the world wide web, musicians and industry pros need to consider how
technology effects the way people value music. Sub Pop has a story to tell
about experimentation and adaptation that can be applied to other businesses
dealing with shifting consumer expectations, restructured priorities and still
looking to be ok enough to have a store in an airport and food on the table.

FARMSTR FRUIT PICK UP
Farmstr is an online marketplace where sustainable farmers, fishers
and ranchers sell directly to local customers. With Farmstr, sellers
earn higher margins and customers get access to high quality local
food for [often] less than it costs at the store. Small local producers
can sell what they have, when they have it, and buyers have control
to buy what they want, when they want, from whom they want.
If you were smart enough to invest early by ordering Farmstr goods
before the conference, you can pick it up from the Farmstr truck at
the SIC after party. #farmfooddelivered
The Farmster truck will be parked
in front of Melrose Market Studios

- 1. WELCOME TO SIC2014! This year we are spotlighting Makers. Now more than ever, creative thinkers have easier access to data and tools and they’re changing the industry in big ways, at a faster pace. These digital artisans bring a DIY spirit to work with them everyday. Their creative thinking pushes us to shift the way we work and play — and there’s much for all of us to learn and take from their experiences. This year’s agenda is filled with many inspiring people who have big stories to tell and I can’t wait to hear them speak — they are truly Makers. Alongside these big thinkers are those individuals and teams who aren’t necessarily aiming to change the world, but are nonetheless changing how the world works. They too are innovators, willing to experiment boldly enough to reinvent tools and techniques that shift the ways we work and play. They make change, make technology, make noise, even make history and more. Their hands-on experience will inspire all of us to innovate — and maybe even become Makers ourselves! I hope you leave SIC 2014 ready to innovate and experiment, knowing that we’re all capable of being Makers. On behalf of the SIC://Team and our Board of Advisors, thank you for coming. —Brian Rauschenbach sic://Curator & Co-founder 1

- 63. 63 FARMSTR FRUITPICK UP Farmstr is an online marketplace where sustainable farmers, fishers and ranchers sell directly to local customers. With Farmstr, sellers earn higher margins and customers get access to high quality local food for [often] less than it costs at the store. Small local producers can sell what they have, when they have it, and buyers have control to buy what they want, when they want, from whom they want. If you were smart enough to invest early by ordering Farmstr goods before the conference, you can pick it up from the Farmstr truck at the SIC after party. #farmfooddelivered The Farmster truck will be parked in front of Melrose Market Studios Thursday, October 16, 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM

As the Creative Director of hip hop mogul Russell Simmons’ Def Jam Recordings, he created visual identities, album covers, logos, and advertising campaigns for Run DMC, Beastie Boys, LL Cool J, Public Enemy, Notorious B.I.G., and Jay-Z. This show explores the relationship between transformation and discovery.

- 69. 69 ORIGIN &DESTINATION BY WINTR Seattle is a city in motion, experiencing economic growth as well as the subsequent benefits and pitfalls. One of the most visible issues is traffic and mobility in and around the city. The diverse and dynamic neighborhoods offer up a host of businesses, events and attractions. To continue to inspire the creative spirit and greater community and culture of Seattle, individuals and ideas need to be able to efficiently navigate from origin to destination. WINTR’s installation Origin & Destination is an expression of distance between two zip-codes in the Seattle area, mode of transportation and the variable duration based on real-time traffic data. Translating visible issues into a stylistic abstraction of data is an effort to motivate creative solutions to these issues and further Seattle as a city, well designed, in motion. View the installation on Lower Level Landing LIVEFYRE SOCIAL FEED We’re social media junkies. The Livefyre Social Lounge and live feed screens throughout the venue give you a comprehensive look at the information and conversations happening on the social network during the conference.
