This video was created as a conversation starter, and works especially well when brainstorming with people about the near future and the skills needed in order to harness, evaluate, and create information effectively.

    From the librarian speaking: authority control in subject cataloging certainly has its place alongside the chaos and freedom of completely individual categorization in databases. It allows us to connect like with like. In an ideal world, we could search both catalog records and the full text of a book/text with Google's relevance engine!

      I had to watch this for school, and used subtitles. It only has German, but RUclips has auto-translate so it put the German captions into English. It's interesting to see how things changed. I took classes in web design and user interfaces, and there are now some standards and guidelines people expect. It's neat to see the changes. I hope I can make a difference some day to make things more accessible to those with disabilities. I have my own struggles that make certain websites harder to use.

    What is really interesting to me is that the aesthetic choices made in a video like this is very much like the ones we all make everyday, all the time now. Thus this narrative operates at the speed of our own "internet-enabled" thoughts.
    This dims the message to me and instead focuses my attention on the form.

    The age of heroes is upon us and information is our weapon. We have been taught that we are insignificant and powerless, but we have the same potential as anyone. It is a choice, so CHOOSE!

  • @magicbeanstalk101

    The challenge this video presents is what value classification schemas still hold. The ability of information to find us sounds very seductive. We need classifiers and categorisers to view this video and engage with the "Classification is dead" message. Perhaps it is and "the machine" will learn to codify based on our feedback. Amazon already does this in a way.
    What an excellent video to seed the discussion!

    The intuition of the astounding changes occurring as a result of the internet that came to so many of us as we entered the field of computer science in the 70's and 80's is expressed so well in this video. Many thanks to the creators! The non-local model is not just challenging to everyday people, it challenges the physicists as well. But it seems most people are "getting it" in action as they use the internet, whether or not we get it in theory.

  • @raylemont6216
    @raylemont6216 11 лет назад

    I think you're spot on with your view of the information sharing trend of organizing based on the users tagging of key words (folksonomy).I think that information is in the wild west of sharing and the one piece that is missing is the common language of organization so that the complete information picture is delivered rather than a partial or incorrect view of the information. Just look at shared drives where you work to see how the folders are tagged (titled) to see how ingenious people are.

    We're showing this video at a UN conference in NYC - yes, the UNITED NATIONS - on 11/28 that has to do w/ the positive impact of information and communications technology (ICT) on climate change. This is an inspiring video that will help us communicate to worldwide diplomats here that the solutions that can help improve the global impact of ICT on the environment lie within the vast interconnected information stores that we already have at our disposal.

    I think the answer to that sense of wonder is when you are on wikipedia and suddenly realize that you've followed a series of links from Britt Eckland to the properties of electrons.

    I really enjoyed your video. I absorbed so many thoughts and ideas at such a short span (execution was excellent). We really experienced a phenomenal information revolution with the internet. It just opened flood gates to so much information. The internet had also saved us all so much time. If you are old enough to remember how we used to conduct research, you'll know what I mean. We now only have to rethink of the way we find the information we need, but that isn't a very difficult thing.

Most of all he has learned to cut and paste. When he starts work in 5 years he will unemployable. I run a business and I would not employ him....

    problems with citation. But we hace to admit at least a revolution in the searching process, today we are more efficient than ever in time before. i admit the revolution in the antropology field and culture creation process but in study, investigation and adquiring of theorical tools is yet limited.
    great video

    @RegressLess 16 лет назад

    Referring to the criticisms here and everywhere:
    Sometimes criticism comes with the intention to help, but often people criticize others as a byproduct of arrogance and negativity in a desperate struggle to feel superior. If you are quick to criticize you are probably also quick to miss the point.

  • @NadeenN419
    @NadeenN419 14 лет назад

    This is very interesting. But as information evolves into a more digital age, what happens to the value of it? Information is valued by the way we read and the way we process it. The more we have, the less we know. Little value is placed on information by students that have infinite access to it. What has happened is the creative restructuring of information is gone. It's all about the copy and paste. Is there a way to combine them? Hopefully! Wonderful work! I'm a big fan!

    Words themselves are categories, the idea that we should remove the idea of the shelf, or categories from our searches, and that "links are enough" is just ludicrous. We might not need complex hierarchies to find information? We store information in our brains in the form of complex hierarchies... tagging is itself a form of making a hierarchy... like hello?

    @chrisbright429 12 лет назад

    To me, this video is a testament to the last few years in the world of technology. Over the past few years we, as a society, have sprung into the social media age. The ideas of concretely organized file systems is harder and harder to achieve in this age because the internet is constantly growing, shifting, evolving. What you find one day could be changed or even moved the next. Our world is evolving into one wraped in wires, for better, and for worse. The amazing world we live in.
