Amsterdam2030 door !ANATA LAB
Amsterdam2030 door !ANATA LAB | innovation and diversity | Scoop.it

!ANATA LAB stelt zichzelf voor de uitdaging voor Groot Amsterdam een TOEKOMSTBEELD te schetsen dat uitgaat van nieuwsgierigheid, ambities en inclusief denken en doen.

 

Amsterdam heeft zo’n toekomstbeeld nodig. Amsterdam steekt schril af bij bruisende culturele metropolen als Londen, Parijs, Barcelona en Berlijn. En als niemand in beweging komt, ligt – mede door de crisis – een verdere verschraling van Amsterdam als culturele en tolerante wereldstad op de loer.


Amsterdam is in de schaduw geraakt en moet weer in het volle licht komen te staan. Er is behoefte aan een lonkend perspectief dat aansluit op wat Groot Amsterdam in wezen is: intercultureel en innovatief. Onder het motto ‘be the change you want to be’ ontwikkelt !ANATA LAB een raamwerk voor een duurzame creatieve en tolerante samenleving. Een perspectief dat bindt in plaatst van polariseert.

 

Het project Great Amsterdam 2030 heeft tot doel een toekomstvisie te ontwikkelen de Amsterdam en omstreken in 2030. De toekomstvisie zal verwerkt worden een in rapport, een boek (en e-book), filmpjes en een website. Het geheel zal aan de bestuurders van de stad worden gepresenteerd tijdens een symposium op 15 november 2012 in de Zwijger .

 

Het boek, de films en de website bevatten niet alleen de visie van !ANATA LAB, het bevat ook interviews met Groot Amsterdammers – kunstenaars, huisvrouwen, bestuurders, scholieren, vormgevers, marktkooplieden, etc – die allemaal hun visie met ons deelden, en ‘werkopdrachten’ van hoe we het lonkend perspectief – van een creatieve, duurzame en tolerante Regio in Europa – tot realiteit kunnen maken.

The time machine in our mind. The imagistic mental machinery that allows us to travel through time

This article provides the first comprehensive conceptual account for the imagistic mental machinery that allows us to travel through time—for the time machine in our mind. It is argued that language reveals this imagistic machine and how we use it.

Bucky Balls Could Double Your Lifespan

Buckminster fullerene molecules, the naturally occurring spheres made up of 60 carbon atoms, have long been suspected to have biological benefits. Now, a study that set out to establish if they were toxic when administered orally has proven quite the opposite—they almost doubled the lifespan of the rats that they were fed to.

What Makes Some Cities Greener Than Others

Today I turn my attention to the economic, demographic, and other factors associated with cities and metros that have lower levels of carbon emissions.

 

Several Martin Prosperity Institute colleagues and I [Richard Florida] took a simple, straightforward statistical look at several things research and common sense suggest should be associated with higher and lower levels of carbon emissions.

Disruptive innovation — in education | KurzweilAI

For Anant Agarwal, MITx, the Institute’s new online-learning initiative, isn’t just a means of democratizing education.

 

A decade ago, MIT broke ground with its OpenCourseWare initiative, which made MIT course materials, such as syllabi and lecture notes, publicly accessible. But over the last five years, MIT Provost L. Rafael Reif has led an effort to move the complete MIT classroom experience online, with video lectures, homework assignments, lab work — and a grade at the end.

Content Curators Are The New Superheros Of The Web

"Yesterday, 250 million photos were uploaded to Facebook, 864,000 hours of video were uploaded to YouTube, and 294 billion emails were sent. No wonder content curation is one of the most important jobs of our digital age.

(...) Which means it's time to enlist the web's secret power: humans."
