La nueva burguesía de la globalización aymara Bolivia ha sido desde finales de los años 90 el pais que más redujo la pobreza de todo Sudamérica según datos del Programa de Naciones Unidas para el Desarrollo. Según estimaciones de 2012, casi un millón de personas superó la brecha de la pobreza para convertirse en clase media. El impacto se hace evidente cuando uno pasea por las principales ciudades y por la capital, La Paz, pero sobre todo en El Alto. En la feria aymara de El Alto se puede encontrar cualquier cosa, lotes de ropa usada para la toda la familia, coches de no se sabe qué mano «refabricados», objetos de decoración hechos de reciclaje, sacrificios para rituales religiosos, electrónica… más bien se podría decir que todo El Alto es un mercado, un pequeño Hong Kong en potencia que se estima mueve 1 millón de dólares al día. Rompiendo las fronteras de La Paz Hay dos plazas contiguas en la capital boliviana que representan la división social del país durante los últimos siglos.

How to build a Faraday cage wallet - Nerdcam - Blogs - ZDNet Australia Loading... Please wait. Worried about your contactless cards being duplicated? With more and more access and transaction cards going contactless, it's OK to be a little paranoid and invest in a Faraday cage wallet. A Faraday cage wallet serves to disperse electromagnetic fields across a metal surface to stop them from interacting with cards. To build this Faraday wallet, we tried a modified version of a method developed by the geniuses over at Wired. You'll need: Duct tapeSticky tapeAluminium foil Scissors (ask your parents before using them, kids). Cut six strips of duct tape, 16 centimetres in length, and lay them on top of each other to create two panels of three strips each. From there, cut or fold two pieces of aluminium foil to stick to the duct-tape panels you've created. From there, sandwich the two pieces of duct tape together to create the wallet, and fold it in half. Set your sandwich aside for a moment, and cut two more pieces of duct tape approximately 8 centimetres in length.

Delft Institute of Positive Design | Positive Design Reference Guide How does design mediate, facilitate, or foster user well-being? What are the universal principles of human experience? If you find yourself asking these questions, then this guide is for you. The Positive Design Reference Guide focuses on the why, what and how of human experience – both in general, and in relation to design for well-being. The guide provides you with a quick entry point into the variety of theories that we believe can be relevant for well-being-driven design. It comprises 29 models, theories and frameworks, separated into two sections. Each theory is introduced with a short summary and a list of key publications that offer more extensive explanations.

Even before I started the company that is now frog design, I always felt that the world of objects and experiences should neither be soul-less “corporate kitsch”? “…it is the pervading law of all things organic and inorganic, of all things physical and metaphysical, of all things human and all things superhuman, of all true manifestations of the head, of the heart, of the soul, that life is recognizable in its expression, that form ever follows function.

Your Daily Life in GIFs (4.16.12) It’s time once again to take another look in the animated mirror! Special thanks to Jonotron for submitting this first one. When everyone laughs at a joke you don’t get: When someone offers a witty insight: When someone says you can have a bite of their food: When people you don’t know tell you their problems: When you’re feeling crummy and someone tries to get you to hang out with them: When someone tells a dirty joke: When you accidentally walk in on someone who is naked: When friends talk about something you weren’t invited to: When the teacher says you can’t write the essay the day before it’s due: When you get a great new hair cut and can’t stop looking at it: When you come home after hours without being on the computer: When you come home drunk: When you really like the song, but don’t know the lyrics yet: When it’s your birthday and you sit back to watch the notes roll in on Facebook: When you were little and your mom brushed your hair: most of these come from here, here, here and here.

David Roberts: “La mayoría de universidades del mundo van a desaparecer” Roberts considera que el negocio de las universidades tiene los días contados y que solo sobrevivirán aquellas que tengan una gran marca detrás. Singularity University ha roto con el modelo de certificación; no expide títulos ni existen los créditos. Su único objetivo es formar líderes capaces de innovar y atreverse a romper las normas para alcanzar el ambicioso reto que se ha marcado la universidad desde su creación. Sus alumnos están llamados a utilizar la tecnología para resolver los ocho grandes desafíos del planeta: alimentar a toda la población, garantizar el acceso al agua potable, la educación para todos, los servicios sanitarios básicos, la energía sostenible, vigilar la seguridad, cuidar el Medio Ambiente y acabar con la pobreza. Roberts atiende a EL PAÍS en la Oslo Innovation Week, un encuentro organizado por el gobierno noruego estos días para detectar las nuevas tendencias en innovación que están transformando la economía.
