Considering that Amsterdam is situated two meters below sea level, the Dutch have really done a magnificent job not at “fighting” nature but rather incorporating it into the function and aesthetics of the city. While doing a research fellowship in this beautiful city, I decided to conduct a series of informal interviews with theorists, educators, artists and activists to learn how they are applying some of the same ingenuity at figuring out how new information and communication technologies are transforming the fabric of society.
The interviews:
- Geert Lovink: Founding Director, Institute of Network Cultures
- Rik Maes: Program Director, PrimaVera
- Marc Worrell: Software Architect, Mediamatic
- Anne Beaulieu and Sally Wyatt: Senior Researchers, Virtual Knowledge Studio
- Rob van Kranenburg: Head of the Public Domain Program, Waag Society
