A complicated relationship, made of hugs, but also leak, the overwhelming enthusiasm and braking at the limit of the disqualification.
If that between culture and innovation is a wedding, what came out of the Orangery of San Sisto, under the Big Tent of Google, is that you can do, rather it is already tight. The love is there, maybe it’s litigarello as they say in the shadow of the Colosseum, but not going back.
wedding are large: between culture and Google, or between a bigwig of the Web and the world of our knowledge.
The great deceiver has white hair, 70 years old on 23 June, is called Vint Cerf, chief evangelist at Google: the Internet is as we know it is because he and Bob Kahn.
The town hall, the church or if you prefer, is the Orangery of San Sisto.
The conductor Riccardo Luna, journalist, director of StartupItalia! and Chefuturo!, web evangelist and storyteller, what unites the dots.
“ I am passionate about culture and innovation” is the love note that opened the day at the Baths of Caracalla . The signature of Massimo Bray, Minister of Culture. “In the world of cultural heritage there is a tremendous desire for change” , and then, “ the Web is a unique vehicle of cultural content in the country.”
speaks of “liquid culture” of “dematerialization of public assets and private licensed under creative commons” and says just a “Web self-referential.” ; If we stopped here, marriage invoked by Riccardo Luna would be more solid of a Chianti with a steak (the steak that is) and would we go away happy.
But something goes adjusted. Marco Polillo not only does the publisher but is president of Confindustria Italian Culture. “Do not believe those who say that the future is self-publishing. That is not culture “, makes the role of SIAE as” necessary for the survival of the culture industry “ and complains because of the Wikipedia entry for Marco Paolillo Publisher is not correct. Try to explain to a digital native What is SIAE, asks Marina Salamon (President of Web of Life), which speaks of boys “clinging to YouTube.” Also tell them that when the liquid culture is the decisions are not taken on the tables , but if you take the people. Without permission.
over? Depression? Back to prehistory? Not at all. To revive the eternity of the love relationship between culture and the great seducer Google has thought of Antonio Spataro, who is the director of Catholic Civilization. First missile: “The Church and the Internet were destined to meet always been in God’s plan.” According missile: “Creativity is in the sacred books of Judaism and Catholicism, and Hackers have roots in our history “ and distinguishes them from crackers. Third missile (but a bit ‘we knew it): “Papa Francesco is fundamentally social.” Not bad for a guy who runs a magazine founded in 1850.
Among visions of the future and hesitation, it’s up to the landlord Vint Cerf, clear the table by the uncertainties. Says of himself: “I’m an engineer, a technician. As a child I played and I liked the small chemical explosions, use the Internet was an opportunity to blow everything up “. Just to understand each other. Who still talks about gradual approach to digital sends word that “or you adapt or perish” . It applies to everyone. From the press to the school until the business. “Change the school, the university changed, today we to lifelong learning.” He says that “today many prof put your lessons online. And they use classroom time to answer students’ questions “ and ” due Professor at Stanford have taken an online course on artificial intelligence and have had 100,000 registrations. “ and the paper printed? Well, yeste rday hath celebrated the funeral of traditional newspapers. That survive to us for one reason. “The information and the news of quality work well on the Net But the Net should be efficient, and in Italy it is not so.”
But the line is marked “or you adapt or die “.
