"WEB SQUARED, MAKING SENSE OF THE WORLD THROUGH SHARED DATA
From the re-use of public-service information to the massive flows of data produced by people as well as sensors, huge opportunities arise for knowledge production, value creation – as well as pervasive surveillance. We will hear from the first open-source cities, from researchers who extract new knowledge from data, from entrepreneurs who share them and create new services out of them, and from activists who turn surveillance technologies on their head…
The New Science of Data
How can we create and share knowledge out of the masses of data we collect on the world?
Speakers :
Yann Moulier Boutang, philosopher and economist, director of the journal Multitudes
Fabien Girardin , researcher and engineer at Lift lab
Jan Blom, Research director, Nokia

Open Public Data, a New Resource for Innovation and Participation
Public-Service Information is a major source of new services, of value creation as well as knowledge production and citizen participation. Whole countries and cities are opening up access to their data. How can open public data become reality? What does it really change?
Speakers :
Jarmo Eskelinen , CEO, Forum Virium Helsinki
Michael Cross Free Our Data
Hugues Aubin, Rennes Metropole

"FAB LABS", REINVENTING INDUSTRY
In which "garages" are tomorrow's things and places being invented? What happens to industry when desktop design and fabrication become reality? Which new shapes, materials, concepts, product lifecycles, will emerge from the digitization of manufacturing? Let's ask the Fab Lab pioneers, those who invent the tools that we'll use to design and manufacture things and places in the future, and the designers who are already doing this.

Future things, future design process and challenges
What new narratives, concepts, processes, products and services might arise from tomorrow's design and fabrication technologies? What does the digital bring to object design? What does it mean in terms of design process, and what are the limitations of these visions? What will we be able to preserve, change, relocalize, dematerialize, customize, repair... ? Researchers, designers and technologists take us on a journey to the future of artifacts.

What If Anyone Could Make Almost Anything ?
Fab Labs are workshops where almost anyone can design and make almost anything. Under that or other names (Tech Shops, Hackerspaces...), hundreds of shared spaces are providing the means to design, prototype and produce new objects, to create installations, to customize existing products. What happens in these places? How do they work and what are their success factors? What new prospects do they open: innovative concepts and enterprises, "opensource hardware", relocalization... ?
Speakers :
Adrian Bowyer, University of Bath and father of the RepRap project
Haakon Karlsen jr., CEO, Fab Lab Norway and the Fab Foundation
Ton Zijlstra, FabLab Foundation Netherlands

"PEOPLE HACK", DISTRIBUTING CONTROL AND KNOWLEDGE
Can Technology give us more control on our lives, rather than less? Reduce divides rather than produce new ones? Help us become smarter and wiser rather than drown us in information? From the frontiers of neuroscience to new ways of teaching, from tools for mass discussion to personal information ecologies, we will discover new ways to deal with very old issues.

Enlarge your brains!
Can we become smarter, individually and as a community? Can we learn better and faster? Remember more, at the right moments? Make better decisions? And if so, what difference does it make for all of us? What will we lose in exchange? Researchers, pedagogues and entrepreneurs have unexpected answers to share.

Embracing Complexity
Complexity could become a feature, not a bug. How can we regain control of our information flows, our time, the ways in which we appear to others? Can we discuss complex issues in more productive and less destructive ways ? Can we understand complex systems and act on them? Can technology help us do that ?
Speakers :
Stefana Broadbent, UCL
Manuel Lima , interaction designer and researcher, founder of VisualComplexity.com.
Ivo Gormley,Think Public, director of Us Now.

Privacy Revisited, Protect and Project
Never before have we been so worried about privacy, yet never before have we so willingly allowed so many people to know so much about us. Is there a paradox, or do we need to revisit what we expect from privacy? We will ask thinkers and doers who are exploring a new road: Give individuals the tools to know as much about themselves as organizations do, and use this information to their own ends.
Speakers :
Daniel Kaplan, Founder and CEO of the Next Generation Internet Foundation (Fing)
Adriana Lukas, The Mine! project
Alma Whitten, Privacy engineering lead, Google
