TEDx SoMa live streaming: Marina Gorbis of Institute for the Future and others

Keynotescreensnapz001
TEDx is a new series of local, independent, self-organized TED-esque conferences in small group settings. Today is TEDxSoMa in San Francisco. There's a diverse group of smart folks slated to speak for ten minutes each, including Aardvark co-founder Damon Horowitz, Lucas Licensing's Howard Roffman, graphic recording and visualization pioneer David Sibbet, and my dear friend and colleague Marina Gorbis, executive director of Institute for the Future. Yesterday, I got a sneak preview of Marina's presentation, titled "Digital Mirrors," about how our daily lives may be changed by the massive amounts of data about ourselves that will become collected and available through pervasive networks, sensors, and augmented reality. It's a very smart and funny performance piece. (Above is one of her slides.) The program streams live starting in one hour, 1pm PST, and Marina is on at 4:30pm.
