Eric Rice and me riff on the future of media

Uncategorized 0 Minutes

What a wacky podcast: Alex Williams put a microphone in the middle of Eric Rice and me as we riff about the future of media. Among other things. All at a party at Gnomedex.

Eric gets my creativity going. I tell lots of people I’m gonna copy everything he does. And I’m only half kidding.

More Gnomedex audio is on the Chris Pirillo Show site.

Literally. He had the first ride in the first Tesla. Siri was launched in his house. He's been the first to share all sorts of technologies and companies with you, from Flipboard to Pandora to Instagram. Today he's focusing on mixed reality, AKA "next-generation augmented reality" which will include a new user interface for EVERYTHING in your life (IoT, Smart Cities, driverless cars, robots, drones, etc). That's based on his view thanks to his past experience as futurist at Rackspace. Best place to find Scoble? On his Facebook profile at https://www.facebook.com/RobertScoble He has been a technology blogger since 2000, was one of five people who built Microsoft's Channel 9 video blog/community, worked at Fast Company Magazine running its TV efforts, and has been part of technology media businesses since 1993. ++++++++ SPEAKER PITCH: Apple and Facebook now have revealed their Augmented Reality strategies, which means your business needs one too. Rely on Robert Scoble, the world's top authority on AR, to bring to your conference what businesses should do next. SPEECH ABSTRACT #1: TITLE: The Fourth Transformation: What's next in mixed reality (AR and AI) and the future of technology? Here's an example of this talk at Leade.rs in Paris in April, 2017: https://youtu.be/52_0JshgjXI Why "the Fourth Transformation?" Soon we will have phones and glasses that do full on augmented reality. Everything you look at will potentially be augmented. This world is coming in late 2017 with a new iPhone from Apple, amongst other products. Microsoft is betting everything on its HoloLens glasses that do mixed reality and the industry is spending many billions of dollars in R&D and funding new companies like Magic Leap. This future will be the user interface for IoT, Smart Cities, autonomous cars, robots, drones, and your TV. This is a big deal and Robert will take you through what mixed reality is and how it will change every business. Learn more about Robert's speaking style and contact his agent at http://odemanagement.com/robert-scoble/Robert-Scoble.html ++++++++ SPEECH ABSTRACT #2: "The Next Two Clicks of Moore's Law." Over the next four years, or two clicks of Moore's Law, a ton about our technology world will change. Scoble will bring you the best from his travels visiting R&D labs, startups, and innovators around the world. He views the world through his rose-colored-mixed-reality glasses, which will be the new user interface for self driving cars, Smart Cities, IoT, and many other things in our world. He'll send you off with some lessons for companies both large and small. ++++++++ SPEECH ABSTRACT #3: "Personalized Meaning: What is Augmented Reality For?" As we enter a far more technological world where even cars drive themselves, I predict we'll see a blowback toward the analog, more authentic world. What role does augmented reality play in both worlds? Get Scoble's insight into where augmented reality is going, see tons of real-world demos, and understand what he means by 'personalized meaning.'

  5. And who makes the audio tours? Some Big Official Smart Media Company or, like everyday people?

    Congratulations, Chris! You have just provided the correct, predictable textbook all-techies-do-this-trolly-kinda snark to question #17!

    “[inser name of something here] isn’t new, it’s been around since [insert obviously longer period of time longer than current market readiness]. What about [insert examples that are obvious here] ?

    I’ll bet we’ll see at least four comments here dissing podcasting cuz podcasting isn’t latex gloss paint.

    “[Insert name of something here] is new, it’s the new new thing, the new paradigm shift, the long-tail, the Singularity progressive-enhancement grassroots Cluetrain power-ride [insert the usual statement of how everyone else just doesn’t get it]. Why of all my Sillycon Valley friends are doing this (and holding parties), jump aboard the new [insert paragraphs and paragraphs of Web 2.0 buzzwords]. [Insert more statements of how everyone else just doesn’t get it].

    When I first started this there were only [insert some random number] and now, yes now, there are [insert some random eyeballs’ish number]. It’s a global revolution I tell you. Out with old, in with the new new new. What about [insert examples that are obvious here]? Why this and that [insert techonology trend that took off] was once like this new trend, so get in on the ground floor baby, ground floor. [Insert yet more statements of how everyone else just doesn’t get it].

    I don’t care about [insert low marketshare number], I care about the quality of the people listening [insert name-drops serious]. But now that it’s getting some backing [insert good marketshare number] this only proves that I was right all along. Nah nah nah.
