MIT Lab May 2012 Mimi ItoCultural Anthropologist: She explores the ways in which digital media are

changing relationships, identities, and communities

“Don’t just celebrate that kids do amazing things”

“The reality is that this is not scaling, Institutions are having problems getting to grips with these systems shared social goals”

“Create good principals for good participation online. Good use of technology for having engaged, participatory learning. Can we put this forward in the world for people to discover positive opportunities.”

We have taken over the TV and Radio stations

We have disabled the phone networks

We have access to your Digital Dossiers and your Personal Identification Information

We know everything about you

Would you help create the new world

or would you be controlled?

What do we have in the room?

Some young people said they would pay someone else to do the creating

Some were not interested at all creatingThe geeks became heroes, understanding SOPA

and the anonymous movement1/3 were receptive & wanted to learn moreSmall but significant numbers wanted to learn
