Well, thanks to a lucky day, I spent the day between Harvard and the MediaLab. I will report about what happened. But I must say one thing right now: it is an experience of quality. The general idea that I had the feeling is that there is a network full of ideas in which every single person works on her meaning as an individual contributor to the ecosystem.
The cure to living the present times is made by a set of practices:
1. telling stories and showing their meaning by linking them to the rest of the world (cosmopolitan identity, as in Ethan Zuckerman’s next book)
2. thinking projects and make them become something that is alive (to make sense of the individual vision by contributing to the ecosystem)
3. experiment with a real scientific mindset (to actively cope with complexity by a conscious knowledge of the relationship between theories and empirical testing)
Cosmopolitan identity is going to be again and again a challenge, which we need to win. Because our major opportunity is to link to the global network and contribute with a special, unique set of ideas).
The meaning of media, too, is changing. It is growing to objects that used not to be thought as media. Tools with an embedded methodology to tell stories that can be understood and shared.
(Oh, how hard it is to write in English… sorry… I hope it is understandable…)
