Audio gibts wie immer auch im Stream, unter http://sublab.org verlinkt,
sobald Sound anliegt :)

Talks wie immer ab 21.00 Uhr. Beats und Cuba im Anschluss.

1. Eli Pariser: Beware online "filter bubbles"

(TLDR: Warum Internetfilter schlecht sind fuer Demokratien)
As web companies strive to tailor their services (including news and
search results) to our personal tastes, there's a dangerous unintended
consequence: We get trapped in a "filter bubble" and don't get exposed
to information that could challenge or broaden our worldview. Eli
Pariser argues powerfully that this will ultimately prove to be bad for
us and bad for democracy.


2. Regina Dugan: From mach-20 glider to humming bird drone

(TLDR: Das Reizvolle am Realisieren von Visionen)
"What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?" asks
Regina Dugan, then director of DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research
Projects Agency. In this breathtaking talk she describes some of the
extraordinary projects -- a robotic hummingbird, a prosthetic arm
controlled by thought, and, well, the internet -- that her agency has
created by not worrying that they might fail. (Followed by a Q&A with
TED's Chris Anderson)


sincerily,
