Biz Stone visits Howard Rheingold's UCB Class - HowardRheingold on blip.tv
About this original series I stumbled into cyberspace a long time ago and have been a participant observer ever since . I write books and blogs and teach and speak . On my way to doing all that communicating, I seem to do a fair amount of hunting, gathering, and alchemy -- that is, transforming what I hunt and gather into something of value to someone else. In the olden days, I wrote about a slice of life in my virtual community , so now I am reslicing my life by trying to capture some of the intertwingled online and offline stuff via video. Episodes of I couldn't resist sharing a quick look at the paradise where I am privileged to sit when I do my work.

Computational media hold the power to improvisationally and dynamically combine formal manipulation of meaningful elements in new ways, at the same time as responding to user interaction. Yet, humble computing can still intervene beautifully when its ability to structure, change, and respond to information and input is orchestrated with sensitive consideration of the slippery process of human interpretation and experience. Priest: If men don't trust one another, then the earth becomes a hell. Figure 1: Kurosawa's Rashomon is a film where the meaningful difference between multiple narratives adds poignancy.
