"Web 2.0" in just under 5 minutes. http://mediatedcultures.net This is a slightly revised and cleaned up version of the video that was featured on YouTube in February 2007. I considered releasing it as an "eternal beta" in true Web 2.0 style, but decided to let it stand as is and start working on future projects. Many of my future videos will address the last 30 seconds of this video (the "rethink ..." part). Thank you all for the helpful comments on the earlier draft. It has been a great experience to connect with so many people interested in similar issues. Once again, there are higher quality versions available for download: Windows Media File (55 MB): http://www.mediafire.com/?2wnm... Quicktime File (96 MB): http://www.mediafire.com/?axhb... Mojiti Version (for comments, translations, etc.): http://mojiti.com/kan/2743/598... This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 License. So you are welcome to download it, share it, even change it, just as long as you give me some credit and you don't sell it or use it to sell anything. I received many more positive comments than negative about the song choice (great work Deus!), but if you are one of those who does not like the song just download the video and change the audio track to your liking. The video was created by me (Michael Wesch), working alone from my house in St. George, Kansas. I used CamStudio for the screen captures and Sony Vegas for the panning/cropping/zooming animations. Someday I might make a video tutorial for those who are interested.

Pardon me for saying, but what if the machine is using us to learn, to actually learn concepts from us. If this is just a novel way of involving us & making us do the work at the same time? While DARPA is datamining collective net behavior down to individual actions. Speculation ofcourse, DARPA & NRO etc does the heaviest datamining on Earth, but they don't use our behavior to teach an AI do they? What do i know.. I believe they've had the hardware for some time & just devised a way to teach it.

Well done, lots of rethinking going on these days. Innocence theorists are starting to come up with some conspiracies.
