Tom Taylor gave a presentation at the Do Lectures, Printing newspapers, hacking analogue technology and connecting into the this wired up world was powerful stuff, and resonated with my talk which argued that we need to use a new language for the networked society More on Do (here). My take on Tom’s prez, was that there is no online or off, there is only blended reality. Plugging the old into the new allows us to create artifacts that belong in today’s world. For me it was a powerful metaphor of plugging lightweight communication technologies into the artillery guns of our mass media age. Well at least that what got me all excited. Words that dropped out of my brain listening to this were: adaptable, flexible, co-creation, permeable communication technologies, micro-publishing, authenticity, flows of information
