I was in my bathroom…

Then on Facebook… Then they told me to change my hair style!

THE MATRIX HAS CHANGEDbefore :

“Buy it, use it, break it, fix it, trash it, change it, melt, upgrade it, charge it, pawn it, zoom it, press it, snap it, work it, quick, erase it, write it, get it, paste it, save it, load it, check it, quick, rewrite it, plug it, play it, burn it, rip it, drag and drop it, zip, unzip it, lock it, fill it, curl it, find it, view it, curl it, jam, unlock it, surf it, scroll it, pose it, click it, cross it, crack it, twitch, update it, name it, read it, tune it, print it, scan it, send it, fax, rename it, touch it, bring it, obey it, watch it, turn it, leave it, stop - format it.”

AcTuAlLy I mAdE iT wRoNg, iT’s MoRe LiKe ThAt:

…AND NEVER STOPPED COMPARING INFORMATION…

…AND NEVER STOPPED GOSSIPING TOO…

…AND NEVER STOPPED ANSWERING THEMSELVES !

“ISTHATGOOD ?”

PROBLEMS TO COME, ALWAYS MORE PROBLEMS TO SOLVE…

FIND FASTER TRACKS

DIGITAL CITIZENS ARE NOW CONSIDERED AS STAKEHOLDERS –AMPLIFIERS or DISSIDENTS- TO INFORMATION PROCESS

DIGITAL CITIZENS ARE IN THE NEW INFORMATION CYCLE

DIGITAL INFLUENCERS ARE NOW ABLE TO COORDINATE AND ORGANIZE SOCIAL & POLITICAL DEMONSTRATIONS IRL

• Korea• Greece• Obama• Iran• Cop15• No Berlusconi Day

“Reputational Democracy” for David Weinbergerhttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-weinberger/the-power-of-small-featur_b_128401.html

MASS MEDIA ARE CHALLENGED BY CITIZENS-MEDIA OUTREACHING THE

DIVERSE MASSES

OFFLINE AND ONLINE IS A WRONG DISTINCTION

ACTIVE VS PASSIVE IS THE GOOD SCOPE OF CATEGORIZATION

AND EVEN MORE: DIGITAL CITIZENS’ AGENDA BECOME MEDIA AGENDA

ALL THAT IS MORE THAN REAL

SOME MIGHT SAY WE’RE AMPLIFIED

BUT ALL THAT IS NOT ONLY A FUNNY WORLD

MARKETERS AVOID THESE WORDS [SOME OF THEM]

DISCRIMINATION CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS POWER CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS UNFAIR CRISIS JEALOUSY CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CONSERVATISM CRISIS CRISIS STASY CRISIS DIRE STRAITS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS ANOMIE CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS CRISIS LONELINESS

THE SOCIAL WEB IS LIKE THE SOCIAL WORLD: DIS-CRIMI-NATIVE

IT’S NOT ABOUT DATA. IT’S ABOUT TO BE TANGIBLE EMOTIONS

SOCIAL MEDIA ARE ABOUT EXTIMACY

« This personal experience made me realize an amazing stuff: we often talk about collective intelligence when it comes to Twitter. I think we’re wrong.

Twitter sets in motion the conditions for a collective empathy. It’s the implicit and induced promise. And that’s probably what explains the fantastic success of Twitter »

« Cette expérience m’a fait toucher du doigt un truc incroyable. Nous parlons souvent d’intelligence collective à proposde Twitter. Je pense que nous avons tort.

Twitter met en mouvement un truc supérieur à cela. Twitter crée les conditions de l’empathie collective. C’est la promesse induite et implicite. Et c’est probablement ce qui explique le prodigieux succès de Twitter. »

Bruno Walther about his son

SO WHAT SHALL WE (YOU) DO?

Remove your headphones

Change your glasses

MAYBE OBSERVE

Have a deeper look on the surrounding

world

Take a hub and ask for a

taxi

SHOW YOUR OWN WORLDBUT SHOW IT WELL (it’s not dirty)

MAYBE ALSO GIVE

Affirm who

you are

Express your

uncertainties

BUILD YOUR UNIQUE STORY

Start fromyour world

Find newperspectives

Share yourstoryline

with otherinfluences

And finally…

DARE TO ENGAGE.…towards the people you want to be in touch…

THE SOCIAL STREET IS YOURS

IT’S ALL ABOUT PEOPLE TALKING TO PEOPLE

Thank you !
