EVALUATING HORIZONS: WHAT LIMITS OUR ABILITY TO COPE WITH ACCELERATING CHANGE? with David Brin. David Brin is a Physicist, Science Fiction Writer, and Author of The Transparent Society: Will Technology Force Us to Choose Between Privacy and Freedom?, 1999. He will be lecturing on Evaluating Horizons: What Limits Our Ability to Cope With Accelerating Change? Near-term trendsfor example Moore's Lawappear to indicate that progress can accelerate. Complexity theory suggests that both cooperation and competition can have synergistic effects when participants within a system have full and rapid access to information. We can perceive such emergent properties happening whenever nature and civilization pass new thresholds. Such trends suggest that we ought to be embarking on a new era of power, intelligence and wisdom. But there are countless examples of "oughts" that never happened. The logic of SETI suggests that our cosmos "ought" to teem with ancient and advanced intelligences, filling space with educational beacons, yet no Sesame Street tutorials have been detected. Tendentious wishing may be responsible for prematurely narrowing our view of possibility horizons. Horizon Evaluation is a process for exploring what threats and opportunities may await us beyond the near term. It can suggest plausible scenarios for science fiction stories. It can also suggest ways to minimize threats and maximize opportunities. It may be particularly relevant for determining where to make investments. Our civilization has already developed techniques that work well at exploring some sectors of the Possibility Horizon.

SERVICE SCIENCE: AN EMERGING MULTIDISCIPLINE TO ACCELERATE INNOVATION, with Jim Spohrer (IBM Almaden). Jim Spohrer is the Director of Almaden Services Research at IBM Almaden. This talk first defines what is meant by the coevolution of technology and business innovations, and then relates this type of coevolution to waves of changing work practices now rippling through our workforce. Spohrer then summarizes diverse perspectives on this topic expressed at the Coevolution Symposium (http://almaden.ibm.com/coevolution). A proposed collaborative research agenda on coevolution that links academic and business institutions is outlined around the emergence of a new multidiscipline: service science. After defining what services are, the astounding growth of the service economy in the US and around the world is considered. Next, the response of universities to the demand from industry for more highly skilled service practitioners, managers, and scientists is reviewed. Finally, a vision of the future of the service economy is presented, and the critical role service science might play in making that vision a reality. Jim Spohrer is the Director of Almaden Services Research at IBM's Almaden Research Center in San Jose, CA.

LIVING THE DREAM: BUSINESS COMMUNITY AND INNOVATION AT THE DAWN OF DIGITAL WORLDS, with Cory Ondrejka (Linden Lab). Cory Ondrejka is the Vice President of Product Development at Linden Lab, creators of Second Life. Digital worlds are persistent destinations for fun, productivity, learning, and adventure. Like all frontiers, entrepreneurs are in these worlds, generating real-world profits. Today's digital worlds face important decisions around whether, and how, to embrace these business activities. As their populations grow, digital worlds are drawing from all walks of life. People from around the globe are discovering online worlds where the only limit is human creativity. People, ideas and cultures are interacting in ways never before possible. Sustained economic growth relies on innovation. Historically, innovation has been a function of transportation and communication costs, property rights, belief structures, and capital markets. Digital worlds optimize these factors in ways the real world cannot, allowing significantly higher per capita growth than any terrestrial nation. Over the next decade, visionary entrepreneurs will emerge from the digital melting pot of distributed and connected populations. Innovation and growth will allow digital worlds to capture an increasing share of the global economy. They will soon be in direct economic competition with real-world nations.

WE, THE MEDIA: JOURNALISM BY AND FOR THE MEDIA, with Dan Gillmor (San Jose Mercury News). Dan Gillmor is a Business and Technology Columnist with the San Jose Mercury News as well as being the author of We, the Media: Journalism By and For the People, 2004. Grassroots journalists are dismantling Big Media's monopoly on the news, changing it from lecture to conversation. Dan Gillmor will discuss the importance of this emerging phenomenon, a deep shift in how we make and consume the news. We the Media is essential reading for all participants in the news cycle: Consumers learn how they can become producers of the news through web journals (weblogs or blogs), Internet chat groups, email, and cell phones. Politicians, business executives, celebrities learn how the top-down controlled world of Big Media has been segmented and undermined by the Internet Age. Newsmakers are learning how to successfully play by the new rules and shift from control to engagement. Journalists discover that the new grassroots journalism presents opportunity as well as challenge to their profession. One of the first mainstream journalists to have a blog, Gillmor says, "My readers know more than I do, and that's a good thing." He makes the case to his colleagues that, in the face of a plethora of Internet-fueled news vehicles, they must change or become irrelevant. We the Media is a book about people.

SOFTWARE SIMULATION, TECHNOLOGICAL AGENTS AND ACCELERATING CHANGE: PERSONALITY CAPTURE AND LINGUISTIC USER INTERFACE, with John Smart (ASF). One of the most important accelerating transitions occurring today is the emergence of the Linguistic User Interface or LUI. Primitive LUIs exist today in interfaces like Google, but will become dramatically more powerful over the next few decades. What will Windows and the Google Browser of 2015 look like? It seems clear that these will include early software simulations of human beings as part of the interface. Human factors experience suggests many of us will prefer to relate to virtual human beings who display body language responses, as such communication is more efficient than speaking to a disembodied machine. Increasingly, these LUI-equipped virtual avatars will also model and display human emotion, intentionality, and body language, yet probably with a speed and consistency that no biological human being can match. As our favorite digital personal interface (our "Digital Me") gains more capacity, they will carry an ever more valuable record of all the past communication we have had with them, including our preferences ("personality capture"), and increasingly become our professional representatives, coaches, managers, and extended memory for important events. How these developments may impact our political, economic, and social landscapes, as well as our definition of self, will be briefly discussed. John Smart is a developmental systems theorist who studies computational autonomy and the dynamics of change.

RISE OF THE VIRTUAL-TO-REAL LABOR FORCE: FIVE FREE IDEAS FROM UNDERWEAR TO ARCHITECTURE, with Jerry Paffendorf (ASF). Jerry Paffendorf is a Director of the Institute for the Study of Accelerating Change. People are creating content of real-world value inside of massively multi- player online environments. In many cases these virtual goods are only useful within the context of the virtual world they come from. But something of much wider significance is also beginning to happen: items first prototyped in virtual worlds are being manufactured in the real world, and items manufactured in the real world are being reconstructed in and sold through the virtual world. This presentation will quickly introduce some pros and cons of prototyping in massively multi-user versus stand-alone software environments, give examples of virtual world prototyping thus far, examine some emerging technologies that will facilitate this virtual-to-real exchange, and suggest five business ideas dying to be worked on today. Paffendorf has an undergraduate degree in Fine Arts (video and mixed-media installation) from Montclair State University in New Jersey, and an M.S. in Studies of the Future from the University of Houston-Clear Lake. His recent concentration has been in the study of collaborative virtual environments and massively multi-player online games that interact with the real worlda subject he's presented on at four major conferences in 2004.

SCULPTING POSSIBILITY SPACE: GAMING, SIMULATIONS AND LANDSCAPES IN THE VIRTUAL WORLD, with Will Wright (Electronic Arts / Maxis). Will Wright is the Founder of Maxis; Creator of Sim City and The Sims. Games and simulations allow us to experience hypothetical situations in fun and intuitive ways. From the designers perspective we need to architect these "possibility landscapes" which players will later explore. Wright discusses some of the informal methods, concepts and tools that he uses to approach this design task. Will Wright, Maxis Chief Designer, co-founded Maxis with Jeff Braun in 1987. He released his first game SimCity: The City Simulator in 1989, an instant hit that has won 24 domestic and international awards. Sim City brought complex, realistic simulations to desktop PCs, a capability previously only available to military, scientists and academicians. Using an easy graphical interface, Sim City opened the world of simulations to consumers. SimCity 2000, SimCity 3000, SimCity 3000 Unlimited, and SimCity 4 Deluxe have continued the tradition. SimEarth, SimAnt, and other games have explored other facets of the natural world. His social simulation game, The Sims, was released in February of 2000. With over 9 million copies worldwide, 7 expansion packs, and numerous "Game of The Year" accolades, The Sims has become the best-selling PC game of all time. Wright has become one of the most successful designers of interactive entertainment in the world. In 1999 he was included in Entertainment Weeklys "It List" of "the 100 most creative people in entertainment" as well as Time Digitals "Digital 50", a listing of "the most important people shaping technology today."

LARGE-SCALE COLLECTIVE IQ: FACILITATING ITS EVOLUTION, with Doug Engelbart (Bootstrap Institute). Doug Engelbart, the Inventor of the Mouse, is a Digital Interface Legend and Founder of the Bootstrap Institute. Engelbart notes that the pace of change is accelerating: the number of aspects of our life that are changing is itself accelerating; the rates of their respective changing are accelerating; the secondary adjustments of each change vector to accommodate the other change-vector changes are accelerating -- an expanded "acceleration" perspective seems necessary for appropriately dealing with the modern world. Picture all of the world's humans trundling along in one common "human-society vehicle," carrying us in semi-separate, national/cultural "compartments" that are each evolving through its accelerating social, technological, economic, political, religious, etc. changes. This vehicle is moving us faster and faster through an ever-more complex, multi-dimensioned space -- and many places in that "space" are dangerous for our society to stumble into. Are "we humans" in control? Sorry, but none of us could steer the system, individually, even if the path were laid out for us. Do "we" have vision that is clear- and farsighted-enough help us guide, even if we did have "steerage control"?

YOU ARE PLAYER ONE: USER INTERFACES IN INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT, with Richard Marks (Sony Computer Entertainment). An interface revolution is coming for computer entertainment. Though graphics have improved tremendously in recent years, interfaces have improved very little. Interactivity is the defining characteristic that separates gaming from other media, and this is the area that will advance the most in the next few years. Richard Marks is Special Projects Manager for Research and Development at Sony Computer Entertainment America. Marks was an Avionics major at MIT before getting his Ph.D. at Stanford in visual sensing for underwater robotics. He then joined Teleos Research, a computer vision start-up later acquired by Autodesk. He departed and consulted for a year, before the unveiling of the PlayStation2 hardware inspired him to join PlayStation R&D. His research focus has been studying real-time video input to the PS2, and he now manages R&D Special Projects, which includes Man-Machine Interfaces and Physical Simulation.

VIRTUAL MONEY, PRIVACY AND FREEDOM, with Peter Thiel (Clarium Capital). Peter Thiel is a Co-Founder and Former CEO of PayPal, Inc. and President of Clarium Capital. He is Author of The Diversity Myth: Multiculturalism and Political Intolerance On Campus, 1998. For most of history, citizens and their property have been largely immobile, subject to the tyranny of place and the depredations of governments with virtually absolute power over citizens and their assets. But the past two hundred years have been a remarkable break from the past: wealth has accrued in ever greater proportion not to the tangible world, but to the realm of ideas; advances in transportation and international trade have made people and property more mobile than ever, and the development of unbreakable codes has freed some citizens from the prying eyes of the state. In this new world, the bond between citizen and state is no longer static and cannot be taken for granted. As the power of the state wanes in the face of these trends and the increasing interjurisdictional competition they engender, citizens become clients of states rather than subjects, and the power to decide the special case increasingly falls to newly sovereign individuals. Mr. Thiel is Clarium's President and oversees the firm's research, investment, and trading strategies.

Fogg is the Director of Research and Design at the Persuasive Technology Lab, Stanford University, and Author of Persuasive Technology: Using Computers to Change What We Think and Do, 2002. Can computers manipulate your thoughts and actions? Can they motivate you to stop smoking, persuade you to buy stuff online, or convince you to join the Army? Yes, they can. For the past ten years he has been studying how computing products can be designed to change peoples beliefs and behaviors. More and more, interactive systems are designed to motivate and persuade people. Some applications of captology are beneficial, helping people achieve their own goals (such as exercising more often). However, many promote the interests of organizations at the expense of individuals. He also describes a new mobile phone application created by the Persuasive Technology Lab to change how you access and read digital text. An experimental psychologist, Dr. Fogg teaches courses in persuasive technology for Stanford's Computer Science Department. He's on the consulting faculty for Stanford's School of Education, where he teaches graduate seminars in the Learning, Design & Technology Program.

FINDING HUMANITY IN THE INTERFACE (DEBATE): CAPACITY ATROPHY OR AUGMENTATION? Jaron Lanier vs. Will Wright, moderator Mark Finnern. As our interfaces get continually smarter, how do we keep them from dehumanizing us? Should we be concerned that U.S. youth have had forty years of declining math, science, and analytical reading skills?
