Hello All!
I hope you had a good reading week catching up and doing school work. I hope you guys are ready to get back to work because Report 2: Signal Amplification is due NEXT WEEK! Thats right...we have t minus 10 days and counting...so time to get cracking. We are meeting on Wednesday at 4 pm on the 5th in the Sharp Centre, open area...so come prepared to do some thinking and some work, and most certainly suggestions on how to re-structure the work because it turned out to be a bit of a headache for some on certain parts. I talked to Matt in the Beal during reading week and he had some comments and suggestions for the next report and they are as follows. He really enjoyed the report, some things to consider next time are: a proper bibliography, better glossary. He said we did a good job at presenting the information, it flowed well and used good language, and we didn't over-distill informaiton either. For the next report, Signal Amplification, we need to amplify the signals that we determined existed in the first report. This I assume will be a hybrid between our context sections and critical trends while on the path of "People Helping People". I think the structure of information could still use some work so it is a bit more professional and smooth. Anways, Matt said we have to accelerate our current thinking and truly expand/extend the possibilities. "Free your mind!". The challenge in this report is whether we can be creative enough and come up with some original content. Anybody can come up with half ass future scenarios but we need to devleop some far reaching scenarios that carry all of our themes and intensify them, scenarios that truly push the boundaries as opposed to something some Sci Fi authour came up with 70 years ago. We need to step back and think lateral...push your thought to the brink. Remember!...at this stage we are still doing research but not nearlly as much, so don't concentrate on it because most of the this report's work should start with a pen and paper...sitting in a room and thinking to yourself and making notes. We are not closing doors at this stage and filtering... so anything is acceptable as long as it is creative, try not to think negatives quite yet...just imagine that IOT is accepted by everyone and everything...What opportunities does IOT hold for us if it was widespread and inherent in all? What could we accomplish? How will this change us and our level of existance and interaction with life/? Think big guys! I will see you tomorrow afternoon...chew on that in the meantime. LET ME KNOW IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT! I haven't heard from anybody as of yet so I assume everybody is coming. Later.
