Comment les artistes détournent-ils les outils du web ? Silicon Maniacs inaugure une nouvelle série consacrée au braconnage artistique sur Internet. Aujourd’hui, les hacking de Google Maps, Google Earth et Google Street View. Depuis la seconde moitié des années 1990 , des artistes utilisent le web comme un matériau à part entière. Sites Internet, moteurs de recherche, réseaux sociaux ou mondes virtuels : ils détournent les outils que nous utilisons quotidiennement sur Internet pour questionner nos usages et nos représentation du réel.

Online Passwords, Accounts, Data - Digital Death Day - Popular Mechanics

http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/how-to/tips/what-happens-to-your-online-data-when-you-die Passwords, banking records, social media accounts —day by day our lives create more and more data. But what becomes of all that data when we pass away is a looming problem with no clear answer. Marc Davis, a partner architect at Microsoft responsible for online services such as Bing, MSN, and advertising, raised this and other troubling issues about citizens' rights to their own information at a panel at this weekend's SXSW conference, called "Demystifying Online Privacy and Empowering the Digital Self." Despite our increasingly data-intensive lives, Davis explains, the legal framework around our personal data just isn't there yet. "Usually, where commerce and society meet legally is the concept of property," Davis said. "What's missing is a concept of contract law and property rights for digital information."

It was the summer of 1969. Scientists in Rochester, N.Y., prepared to fire up an experimental laser. Everything was in place—from the cooling system to ensure the laser didn't burst into flames to the warning lights informing other researchers to stay away. It was in every way a typical day in a typical laser laboratory, except for one fact: On this day, the laser doubled as a gin and tonic.

CultureLab: A vast history of information

Sam Kean, contributor James Gleick's The Information: A history, a theory, a flood is a biography of information that puts today's revolution in some much-needed context For most of history, messages were things : clay tablets, scrolls, scraps of paper, even glyphs tattooed on to the head of a slave, which were revealed only when he visited the message receiver's barber.

Vogue Defends Profile of Syrian First Lady - Max Fisher - International - The Atlantic

The leading fashion magazine talks through its rationale for running a flattering story on the wife of anti-American autocrat Bashar al-Assad November and December of 2010 were busy months for Syrian president Bashar al-Assad. He rebuffed international nuclear inspectors, rejected U.S. attempts at diplomatic engagement, stretched out peace talks with Israel (Israeli foreign minister Avigdor Lieberman accused him of undermining peace, calling Syria "the center of world terror"), ducked fallout from WikiLeaks revelations that he had attempted to arm Hezbollah with Scud missiles, and celebrated his tenth anniversary with first lady Asma al-Assad, whom he married only a few months after succeeding his father's 30-year rule and who herself spent those two final months of 2010 hosting a reporter from Vogue magazine, which on Friday published a glowing profile of her . "Asma al-Assad is glamorous, young, and very chic--the freshest and most magnetic of first ladies.
