  <description><![CDATA[Don Tapscott was here again. He gave a keynote speech at the Dresdner Zukunftsforum last week talking about WIKINOMICS - How Mass Collaboration Changes everything, his latest book. 

We were planning an interview with him for the blogpiloten but the interviewer decided almost in the very last minute not to show up. Ack!

So we've started our "collaboration machine" looking for a suitable replacement. And we found somebody! Our "substitute" Soeren Stamer turned out to be a joker:-) 

Soeren, CEO of Coremedia and editor of the book "Enterprise 2.0 - The Art of Letting Go" (until now only published in German) immediately  took the chance to interview Don when I asked him to help me out. And he held a great "insider" conversation with Don. Even though the sound isn't perfect - it was the very first podcast Soeren ever produced - it is worth listening, just because it's not a traditional interview. You can feel the beach club atmosphere where it took place! I like it.

Thank you Don, thank you Soeren!]]></description>

Dan Gillmor is the founder of the Center for Citizen Media, a project to enable and expand reach of grassroots media.

  <description><![CDATA[I was so happy to get the chance to talk to Ethan while I am in Boston. The work he does on diverse projects regarding digital democracy is so profound and important, that it can't be mentioned enough all over the world. That's why Ethan is a "MUST" for our new WE-magazine!

There isglobal voices online which he describes as follows: "a group of bloggers from around the world who are bridging cultural and linguistic differences through their weblogs. It's a little bit of a multinational news service, a little bit of an international movement of webloggers, and a whole lot of fun."

The Global Attention Gap - the tendency of major media outlets to report more thoroughly on rich nations than on poor ones. More information about it you will find here.

And then there is this class Digital Democracy at Harvard Law School. The class will attempt to address the question "What happens to goverment in a digital age?" from a number of perspectives. Ethan plans to focus his teaching on the potentials and pitfals of eGovernment in developing nations and on "semantic democracy" - the ability of various different people to have their stories told in a digital age.





At the bottom the interview is also attached as a podcast!]]></description>

Last night at the Hasso Plattner Institute in Potsdam Terry Winograd and Hasso Plattner himself were talking about Design Thinking, an idea and concept which isn't actually new - but gets a completely new drive when partners like this collaborate!  For his engagement in science and education I really do admire Hasso Plattner. 

d.school in Stanford started three years ago, initiated by David Kelley, who has been practising design thinking over many years in his studio IDEO. IDEO helps organizations innovate through design.

The attached podcast includes the entire speech (click the load-button below), the Q&A session you can listen here.

A very elegant and considerable man.

  <description><![CDATA[According to Wikipedia Herbert D. Kelleher (born March 12, 1931) is the co-founder, Chairman and former CEO of Southwest Airlines (based in the United States).

Legend has it that Kelleher and one of his law clients, Texas businessman Rollin King, created the concept that later became Southwest Airlines on a cocktail napkin in a San Antonio restaurant. From its birth in 1971—after overcoming a year's worth of legal challenges from competitors who tried to keep it grounded—Southwest has succeeded by daring to be different: offering low fares to its passengers by eliminating unnecessary services and avoiding the now-descredited "hub-and-spoke" scheduling system used by other airlines in favor of building traffic in such secondary airports as Albany, Chicago-Midway (instead of Chicago-O'Hare) and Orange County.

During his tenure as CEO of Southwest, Kelleher's colorful personality created a corporate culture which made Southwest employees well-known for taking themselves lightly—often singing in-flight announcements to the tune of popular theme songs—but their jobs seriously: Southwest has never had an in-flight fatality, although a 6 year boy was killed on the ground when a Southwest jet skidded off a runway at Midway Airport in Chicago on December 8, 2005. Southwest is consistently named among the top five Most Admired Corporations in America in Fortune magazine's annual poll. Fortune has also called him perhaps the best CEO in America.

Watching Herb Kelleher and enjoying his performance one question arises: What will Southwest do, if Kelleher is gone? Hopefully he is taking care of his successor ...

Listen to his speech (load the attached podcast at the bottom) and have a look to the Q&A session, it is fun watching:

Susan U. Stucky, Manager Service Design, 
IBM Almaden Research Center

Dr. Susan Stucky manages the Service Design group in Services Research at IBM Almaden Research Center. The group is currently exploring service design in 3D Internet environments to better
understand both the process and the practice of service design as it relates to the creation of learning and design environments. Prior to joining IBM in 2007, Stucky ran Strategic Practices Group (SPG), a consulting practice that she founded which focused on strategic learning for knowledge-based businesses.  Her work focused on identifying strategic knowledge assets and transforming them to create value by linking the work people do to the value they create. Before launching SPG, Stucky was instrumental in
setting up and running both the Institute for Research on Learning, founded by Xerox in Menlo Park, California, and the Center for the Study of Language and Information at Stanford University.

Stucky holds a Ph.D. in Linguistics from the University of Illinois and completed postdoctoral work in cognitive science and artificial intelligence at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst and at Stanford University.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[ IBM Services is a real success story! It started its transition in the early nineties, shifting iits main business interests from hardware and hardware-related topics to service. Mission accomplished!

One of the driving forces behind the success is the Almaden Research Service Group led by Jim Spohrer. During the Almaden Institute Conference I had the chance to talk to him. He answered the following questions (listen to the attached podcast):

IBM Global Services is roughly half of the overall IBM business. In which fields can research contribute to IBM Global Services?

Consulting business is people business. A totally new research field for an IT-company. What are the major challenges?

How can services research become a source for innovation for the own company? How do you measure your work?

How is the topic of the conference - complexity - related to your work? Where are the links?



Jim Spohrer is the Director of Almaden Services Research at IBM's Almaden Research Center in San Jose, CA. IBM Global Services (IGS) is a people-intensive, information-intensive business of over 170,000 professionals world-wide, accounting for almost half of IBM's yearly revenues, and innovation for IGS is the focus of the Almaden Services Research group. Human sciences, On-Demand Innovation Services (ODIS), deep industry knowledge of future trends, and operations technology are areas of active exploration.]]></description>

Ian Christie, Professor of film and media history at the University of London’s Birkbeck College and moderator of the panel, focussed the entire discussion on how stories, ideas, »worlds« intrigue audiences to watch and interact emotionally with media products - regardless of the formats they are delivered. 

Kees Kasander being known for his irritating, non llinear story telling, embraces the opportunies for storytellers provided by the internet.

Yesterday I had the chance to attend the panel »Virtual Cinema«. A lively and a very surprising discussion ... Details will follow during the day ...

Attached you will find an interview with Noah Falstein, one of the participants of the panel.

  <itunes:summary><![CDATA[Besides the red carpet of the Berlinale, for me the real hot spot is the Talent Campus. The Film Festival invites young filmmakers from all over the world to attend workshops, share ideas and mingle with international stars and colleagues during the Berlinale Talent Campus Week. Make connections with a global filmmaking community and get inspired. It is a great atmosphere in the Hebbel Theatres ...

Yesterday I had the chance to attend the panel »Virtual Cinema«. A lively and a very surprising discussion ... Details will follow during the day ...

During our conversation Brian became to me some kind of »middleware« between complexity theory and economics. Thanks for the lesson, Brian!

(Dear reader, if you are interested in, just listen to the attached podcast).

To me our meeting was one these rare events you are always looking for as a journalist. I really enjoyed talking to you, Brian!





Brian Arthur is External Professor at the Santa Fe Institute, and Visiting Researcher in the Intelligent Systems Lab at PARC. He is best known for his pioneering theoretical work on positive feedbacks or increasing returns in the economy – what happens when products that gain market share find it easier to gain further market share – and their role in locking markets in to the domination of one or two players. Arthur is also one of the pioneers of the science of complexity – the science of how patterns and structures self-organize. In 1988 he ran the Santa Fe Institute’s first research program. He is currently writing a book on the nature of technology and of innovation. 

From 1983 to 1996 Arthur was Morrison Professor of Economics and Population Studies at Stanford. He holds degrees in operations research, economics, mathematics and electrical engineering. He won the Schumpeter Prize in Economics in 1990, and is a Fellow of the Econometric Society and of the World Economic Forum. 

He is a frequent keynote speaker. ]]></description>

I was a little late when I arrived at the Landau Building on Stanford Campus for my first meeting with a Nobel Laureate. I ran up to the third floor and was looking in Kenneth Arrow`s office ...  I did not see him at first. Can you imagine why;-)))

Even though I was late »the ice« broke quickly. 

Our topics were:


  the limitation of existing economic modells
  the incapacity to predict
  analogy between biology and economics 



It was very challenging for me to talk to the »grandfather« of the equilibrium theory. Thank you Kenneth Arrow!

By the way: Kenneth Arrow is still doing research at Stanford University! He is riding his bike to the campus ... tie and helmet! Beautiful!

Listen to the podcast, the sound isn`t so good, but anyhow it`s worth listening ...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Today in the afternoon I went to Berkeley to meet Jaron Lanier. We were mainly talking about the internet and its impact on the society (the entire interview will be available soon). And of course the iPhone was part of the story ... Jaron held a very interesting view of Apple, a view I honestly never thought about.

I apologize for the poor audio quality; we were sitting in a courtyard cafe among many others - as you can hear easily. But anyhow, it is worth listening!

Yes, there is an apple sign on the computer;-))

  <description><![CDATA[»Better ways to think« is the motto of my new blog. I dedicate this blog to Marvin Minsky. He was one of my »heroes« when I first started computing. And he still is.

 In fall 2006 I finally got the chance to meet him at MIT, preparing a conference in Berlin, subtitled »media meets technology«. Marvin was invited to give the keynote speech (listen to the attached podcast). With this short video, published on the conference blog, we were gathering questions for Marvin Minsky. It worked pretty well ... (see details on http://blog.adlershof.de). Furthermore we`ve published this . 

By the time I was in Boston, Marvin just finished his new book »The Emotion Machine«, which is all about commonsense thinking, artificial intelligence, and the future of the human mind. He is attempting one of the holy grails of psychology: an explanation of human emotions, how they work and why we have them. This book gives his work a new direction ... he will present his new book - fresh from the press - to a public audience for the very fisrt time early in November at die HSM Forum in New York: Competing through Science.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[ 
At the 1. Adlershof Business Talk, far away from the public, Joseph Weizenbaum (83, on top) and Marvin Minsky (79) met again after more than 20 years. One cannot exactly say that they are close friends, however, what they do have in common, both went to MIT in its really »golden times«.

So, what happened?

A denouncement or should I better say a lamentation of Joseph Weizenbaum? In never ending monologues he was attacking Minsky. He didn´t want to discuss! He wasn`t looking for topics which might have been worth discussing! A bitter old complaining man  ...

What lasts? Weizenbaum was struggling for his acceptance in the scientific world - and he lost! His attempt for reconciliation failed because of his bitterness.

Weizenbaum was only topped by the incapacity of the attending journalist Stefan Krempl who - in this case - wasn`t able to break new ground! He really missed a great chance!
