Another official request from LIFT art director…to all participants!!

LIFT is not only about digital bits. Share with the lift community the message that touched you most last year in your online environments. Copy-paste the touching message, post, author or comment and send it to editor@liftconference.com We will then print a magazine during the conference!

Digital content is very fragile and can easily be corrupted, copied or altered, and because we believe in the value of printed materials as a good way to keep a track of an experience like LIFT, we decided to print, during the conference, various booklets, simply printed and binded. For visual thinkers like us, the booklet is also a good way to show drawings and photos in a better quality than on a screen, also to use, for example, the fontself project and to question some ideas…big ideas from our speakers! These booklets are part of a collection which content will be published together in a more sophisticated book….oh yeahhh…one day will get there!

This project began during LIFT07. Not so empty book is part of “Artist’s Work in Progress Projects”, supported by Swiss Conféderation , Office Féderal de la Culture, sitemapping. more projects here: http://www.letearoom.ch

Time to muse a bit here on this corner of the blogosphere, this corner of Switzerland. I am sitting here and pondering a few embryonic ideas for an interactive workshop at lift08. Here are some of these ideas:

- The Art of Digital Identity
- The Business of Freedom
- Speed, Time, Money and Sex (I can not be serious about this, can I?)
- Waiting for Godot on the Matrix
- What happens when a Transhumanist meets Calvin?

What do you think?
What is it that as a lift08 participant you want to spend a few hours exploring?
