Adam Greenfield’s Everyware: video online
On July 15, I organized a talking event at Keio University, featuring Adam Greenfield and his recently published book “Everyware: The dawning age of ubiquitous computing.” Adam’s excellent talk (which lasted a bit longer than the expected 50 minutes — 80+ minutes, in fact ;-) ) was followed by a short panel discussion with Younghee Jung, colleague Kim Junghoon and myself.
Last night, I finally came to uploading Adam’s talk to Archive.org, where it’s available for anyone to download and watch. You can even reuse or remix the 700MB+ file, as it’s released under the terms of the Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 Creative Commons license.
If you prefer streaming, I recommend you download and open this QuickTime Link file or else, open this RTSP stream in VLC or another compatible media player. The auto-generated stream offered by Archive.org is bad (so don’t bother trying that one out).
Also of interest maybe: photos of the event can be found on Flickr.
Many thanks to Adam for his great talk; to Chris, Eiko and Tomomi of AQworks for the fantastic flyer they made for the event; to Kim-san and Naoto Ikegai for their help with the preparation; and to the photo and video team for their efforts!

Great news!
I hope prepare Japanese subtitle for it.
I’d love to help as much as I can; but you know I am always far far behind schedule.
I haven’t finished downloading it yet, but did you compress it in iPod compatible format?
I believe some people would love to watch this (repeatedly) on train while commuting.

Hi Nobi – thanks for downloading :-)
I’m afraid the file has to be reconverted in order to be iPod optimized. Actually, I had hoped Archive.org would provide a couple of alternative file sizes and formats but that apparently didn’t happen. Feel free to share your compressed file (through Archive.org for instance) – it’s CC licensed for a reason ;-)
As for translating, that would be great indeed. I suppose we could use dotSub for this, but I haven’t had the time yet to create a transcript in the original language…

Do you have some rss or web page of upcoming events? I work across the street from Keio, so I would have loved to know about this event beforehand!
