The internet society. Empowering or censoring?Excellent animation about the way Internet is really empowering democracy and censorship, enabling the overcoming of well-established myths and to properly assessing the opportunities and threats of digital technologies.

The XXI Century EnlightenmentIn this animation film, Matthew Taylor explores the meaning of the idea '21st Century Enlightenment'. How might this idea might help us meet the challenges the world faces today, and what role can be played by organisations such as the RSA? Whereas 18th Century Enlightenment was moved by an utopia of a perfect organisation of the knowledge collective enterprise -alike Baco's New Atlantis-, a current Enlightenment should need a different utopia, as we indeed search for in PRIMER. Wolfgang's position, in his presentation, is as well quite close to these ideas in terms of the "global sustainable information society". |
