HYBRID HOUSE Hilde Koenders, commissioned by the Prince Bernhard Cultural Foundation This century will see a great mutation in our way of thinking, the distribution of wealth and the different ways to do research. In theory, the dominant bipolar functioning of society will disappear in favour of a holistic vision where several streams of thought will mingle and strive to become one. The 21st century will embrace the growing need to bridge the two brain halves; to blend the rational with the intuitive, to discern the mathematical with the instinctive and to fuse the technological with the anthropological. Early signs of these mutations are already visible in society today and are a strong indication that this is the direction for the future development of research; research for a better life in a better and more sustainable world. Already today we encounter more and more people taking on a “slash” position; the entrepreneur/adventurer/artist/philanthropist, and so on.
Magazine La chose est entendue ; les phénomènes d'innovation qui se sont manifestés par les modèles issus d'Internet depuis dix ans ont transformé radicalement les dynamiques de création et de transformation des marchés, et ce, de manière probablement irréversible. Cette étape de notre histoire marque ainsi un avant et un après. Si le mouvement est apparu d'abord sur les secteurs des technologies et services en ligne, il semble influencer progressivement l'ensemble de l'activité sociale et économique.
Trend de la Creme - Trends in fashion, style, beauty, design, and popular culture. David Report Nova tecnologia permite que tatuagens vibrem para identificar chamadas A Nokia registou uma patente, no final do ano passado, que consiste na sincronização de uma tatuagem com o telemóvel de forma a que a tinta vibre sempre que se recebe uma chamada. Além disso, é possível mudar o tipo de vibração de modo a perceber, sem olhar para o telemóvel, se está a receber uma chamada, uma mensagem ou uma notificação de e-mail. Pode-se, ainda, perceber quem está a ligar já que, a cada pessoa, pode ser associada uma vibração específica. Assim, os utilizadores podem optar por uma vibração mais relaxante para os amigos e outra, mais irritante, para as pessoas menos desejadas. How Brain Science Turns Browsers into Buyers: SXSW Recap If you were one of the many folks at SXSW who weren’t able to get into the room to view Sunday’s SXSW panel, How Brain Science Turns Browsers into Buyers, or if you weren’t at SXSW at all, here’s a recap. (If you were turned away at the door, or had to sit on the floor, please accept our apologies. We don’t pick the venue, and this year SXSW put branding and neuromarketing panels in smallish rooms at the Intercontinental.
The World's Richest Countries And Biggest Economies, In 2 Graphics : Planet Money Gross Domestic Product — GDP — may have its limits. But it's a useful, broad measure for looking at national economies. It's basically the total dollar value of all of the goods and services a country produces in a year. Here are all the countries with GDP of over $100 billion: Notes GDP at current exchange rate for 2010. First World Happiness Report Launched at the United Nations The happiest countries in the world are all in Northern Europe (Denmark, Norway, Finland, Netherlands). Their average life evaluation score is 7.6 on a 0-to-10 scale. The least happy countries are all poor countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (Togo, Benin, Central African Republic, Sierra Leone) with average life evaluation scores of 3.4. But it is not just wealth that makes people happy: Political freedom, strong social networks and an absence of corruption are together more important than income in explaining well-being differences between the top and bottom countries. At the individual level, good mental and physical health, someone to count on, job security and stable families are crucial.
The Geography of Abortion - Politics Few issues divide Americans more severely than abortion. Even accounting for changes in the nation's political climate over time, polling numbers consistently show a close to even split in the percent of the population who identify as pro-life or pro-choice. And given the variation in abortion laws across the 50 states, that divide has a definite geographic dimension as well. With the help of my Martin Prosperity Institute (MPI) colleagues Charlotta Mellander and Zara Matheson, I took a detailed look at abortion rates across the 50 states and the District of Columbia as well as the economic, cultural, and political factors that bear on them. We used two systematic data sets, one from a report released in late 2011 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and another from a 2011 paper from the Guttmacher Institute, the pro-choice women's reproductive health advocacy organization. Access to abortion services is stunningly unequal.

What's Next - Issue 30 - Society & culture Is 10 billion too many? In the 1980s, when there were two and a half billion fewer people than now, there was an active debate about overpopulation. Thirty years on and our primary concern is climate, not people. The idea that there might be too many of us is sometimes seen as retrograde or even anti-human.
