Information R/evolution

This video explores the changes in the way we find, store, create, critique, and share information. This video was created as a conversation starter, and works especially well when brainstorming with people about the near future and the skills needed in order to harness, evaluate, and create information effectively.

This is very interesting. But as information evolves into a more digital age, what happens to the value of it? Information is valued by the way we read and the way we process it. The more we have, the less we know. Little value is placed on information by students that have infinite access to it. What has happened is the creative restructuring of information is gone. It's all about the copy and paste. Is there a way to combine them? Hopefully! Wonderful work! I'm a big fan!

The part about library research is hilarious: been there, done that - and loved it too.

But the first time a student showed me how to get to a search engine on Netscape, I thought "25 years of library experience down the drain", but I was thrilled, actually.

And having made "surface menu pages" to facilitate access to the content of an errh, idiosyncratically structured traditional web site I used to write for, I was thrilled to discover "flat" wikis :-)

Beautiful video right down to the music. Great job!

No it is not well-made. It is creative and interesting but the jarring camera shots, the rapid movements destroy the flow. Handheld camera work is an art and this is not an example of it done well. (Full Disclosure: B.A. in Film History).

To me, this video is a testament to the last few years in the world of technology. Over the past few years we, as a society, have sprung into the social media age. The ideas of concretely organized file systems is harder and harder to achieve in this age because the internet is constantly growing, shifting, evolving. What you find one day could be changed or even moved the next. Our world is evolving into one wraped in wires, for better, and for worse. The amazing world we live in.

Hey...unfortunately, this video is placed just a little too fast. The quick movements (sped up film) combined with a somewhat unsteady camera as you move around makes it somewhat jarring.
