Tim Berners Lee “So how do we plan for a better future, better for society? We ensure that that both technological protocols and social conventions respect basic values. That Web remains a universal platform: independent of any specific hardware device, software platform, language, culture, or disability. That the Web does not become controlled by a single company - or a single country” Link: http://www.masternewmedia.org/news/2007/03/15/the_importance_of_free_open.htm#ixzz1J6f1EXgA Tim Berners Lee 2007 Gilly Salmon Harnessing Technology

‘Crowd sourcing’ geotabs, 3D modelling.... Web 3.0 "The Web of the future ...will be accessible from a growing diversity of networks (wireless, wireline, satellite) and will be available on a ever increasing number of different types of devices. ...Web applications will become a more and more ubiquitous throughout our human environment, with walls, automobile dashboards, refrigerator doors all serving as displays giving us a window onto the Web.“ Gilly Salmon Harnessing Technology

Approaches to change • Retro-movement Let’s return...to the order of the past • Defenders of the status quo Just keep going, carry on regardless, grounded in the mainstream of scientific materialism • Advocates of individual and collective change Break the no longer appropriate patterns of the past and tune into our highest future possibilities – and being to operate from that place...?

Working with emerging futures 1. Upward connection Connecting to inspiration, sparks of intuition and intent 2. Horizon connection Listening to the feedback from the context 3. Downward or local connection Engaging in and learning from locally embedded fast-cycle connections From Scharmer 2009 p,213 Gilly Salmon Harnessing Technology
