Ephemeral Knowledge - the Shift to Disposable Culture
•

In 1870, *Harper's Bazaar* was filled with information from cover to cover, each page overflowing with photos, text, and diagrams. In the early 1900s, the shift to white space in periodicals radically changed not only the printed page, but also our very culture. Plummeting printing prices had allowed designers to remove content from the pages. The age of white space was upon us. Culturally, white spaces say to the world - we are wealthy, we are abundant in resources, and can literally throw away precious space and information. The 2000s brought us the constrained knowledge culture. Shorts from blogs, character limited messaging, even videos that only last seven seconds. Fast forward to the 2010s. Today’s information consumer is presented with something radically different - ephemeral media. It marks a shift in how we create, consume, and respect knowledge. For 30 years, IT has been struggling with knowledge management. In an information-rich age, this struggle has led us to the age of the disposables. From Snapchat, Workshifting, Car2Go, and even URL's that expire, couch surfing apps to API’s that direct you to Meetup for free meals.

Berlin’s eastern neighborhoods and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, are a window onto our future. These urban areas are full of people who are bright, culturally literate, Internet- savvy and far from committed to the idea of hard work directed toward earning a good middle-class living. We’ll need a new name for the group of people who have the incomes of the lower middle class and the cultural habits of the wealthy or upper middle class. They will spread a libertarian worldview that working for other people full time is an abominable way to get by.

- This is a support conference, so I’m sure in some ways this topic may seem irrelevant or even confusing.In the 70’s I was told to avoid TV, for I would be dumb.80’s video games would make me, lazy.90’s computers would remove critical thinking00’s mobile computing made me less social of a person10’s social networks killed privacySomething is happening in life today. We are collapsing, IDENITITY, NARRATIVE, OWNERSHIP, INFORMATIONThe loss of narrative and ownership are having a dramatic effect on how we interact with each other and the world around us.
- This is me today
- The past five months of 2013 have been incredible.Major Tech publications like TechCrunch, WiredMain stream publications like The Financial TimesTelevision and RadioAn Awareness of the Future can create a stir. Oddly enough, all I did in the presentation that caused the attention was a really obscure skill from the 90’s….back then we called it “THINKING”
- 2014 has been a bit busier
- And not just in the USEach year I create a video about that years topics and my life for conferences.I do this because it’s awkawardto be introduced, and it’s fun to make a commercial about your life. So with that, here is 2014’s commercial .
- Imagine A Post-Permanence Future Where Temporary, Deletable Online Communication Is The New Normal.
- Ephemeral – Last a very short time.I grew up in a time where life was defined by “PERMANCE” and the end of things like TV shows, companies, and people were a cultural event.Today, everything is fleeting, and for many it’s purposefully fleeting.
- Digiphrenia – how technology lets us be in more than one place – and self - at the same time. Drone pilots suffer more burnout than real-world pilots, as they attempt to live in two worlds - home and battlefield - simultaneously. We all become overwhelmed until we learn to distinguish between data flows (like Twitter) that can only be dipped into, and data storage (like books and emails) that can be fully consumed.Overwinding – trying to squish huge timescales into much smaller ones, like attempting to experience the catharsis of a well-crafted, five-act play in the random flash of a reality show; packing a year’s worth of retail sales expectations into a single Black Friday event – which only results in a fatal stampede; or – like the Real Housewives - freezing one’s age with Botox only to lose the ability to make facial expressions in the moment. Instead, we can “springload” time into things, like the “pop-up” hospital Israel sent to Tsunami-wrecked Japan. Fractalnoia – making sense of our world entirely in the present tense, by drawing connections between things – sometimes inappropriately. The conspiracy theories of the web, the use of Big Data to predict the direction of entire populations, and the frantic effort of government to function with no “grand narrative.” But also the emerging skill of “pattern recognition” and the efforts of people to map the world as a set of relationships called TheBrain – a grandchild of McLuhan’s “global village”.Apocalypto – the intolerance for presentism leads us to fantasize a grand finale. “Preppers” stock their underground shelters while the mainstream ponders a zombie apocalypse, all yearning for a simpler life devoid of pings, by any means necessary. Leading scientists – even outspoken atheists - prove they are not immune to the same apocalyptic religiosity in their depictions of “the singularity” and “emergence”, through which human evolution will surrender to that of pure information.
- For many people we will be “hopefully” employed for another 10-35 years. That’s 2025-2050 in THIS ROOM at this moment.We no longer live in the future or think about it.We are paralyzed by the present.It may appear that we are thinking, writing and contemplating the future, but what we are actually doing is fearing the future, by darting around dystopian themes.It’s time to critically analyze behavior, that we participate in and witness.
- Uuser generated content and it’s worth.Note the level of ephemeralness goes up with the valuation of each company.
- Factors Driving – Identify – Who are youHumanity – Who are weInformation – What do we value?Ownership – What do we own, How do we own it.
- Fluid identity or liquid selfDoucmentatry style visionPrivacy-Secrets, creative concealments, the spaces between posts—this is where privacy flourishes today.Sousvillenance - Only contextual awarenessData Assisted livingDoxing onanonmous networks
- Media, Narrative collapse, Technology dissolving of ownership.

- What is identity in the 2010’sDescartes, I think there for I amAre we what we post?Are we what we email? Commerce meets identity in attentionalism.“we have to build the community (that once was a geographical given) as an online audience and hold it together by performing for it perpetually. The truth test becomes a way to ascertain one’s own reality, to register a “true” or “real” self that exists apart from the flux of contingencies that seem to shape us in real time. A self is not a sum of content; a self is a practice.” - ROB HORNING
- To understand “idenitity” we need to explore connected people, and their “perspective as a service” You become what you share, read, create“The electonic age, by creating instant involvement for each of us in all the people, has begun to re-pattern the very nature of identity”
