- 4. 4 According 98% of our DNA Humans = Apes What makes us... Humans?
- 5. 5 Humans are characterized by erect posture and bipedal locomotion; manual dexterity and increased tool use, compared to other animals; and a general trend toward larger, more complex brains and societies.
- 6. 6 Our small world, as we know it, is shaped by our tools
- 7. 7 Technological Innovation is an Evolutionary Process, that responds to social innovation. GeorgeBasalla We are the consequence of the TOOLS we use.

- 14. 14 When We live on the border between Cloud FOG compuIng and the IoT Age. At this stage of technological evoluIon, being connected is a Darwinian issue for a product: a key element for it, to live long and prosper. SCI-‐FI AGE
- 15. 15 Basically a “Fog” Node on wheels
- 16. 16 The autopilot service is constantly learning, thanks to machine learning algorithms, detailed mapping and sensor data, and the car’s wireless connection. Tesla leverages these informations from its entire fleet autopilot-enabled cars. Meaning, it operates as a network so when one car learns something, they all learn it.

- 19. BILLION of connected objects are knocking to our doors 19
- 20. Placing an object in a pocket, in a car, on a desktop or in customer’s homes means to create a personal, bi-‐direcIonal, always-‐on, communicaCon channel. BUSINESS is PUSHING IoT
- 21. 21 The INTERNET OF THINGS bridges both the physical and digital worlds, permiang the power of the internet to reach everywhere humanity.
- 22. We are already living a world wide conversaIon that includes our tools 22
- 23. Our Connected Objects started helping us to tell stories… 23
- 24. 24 We evolve sharing stories
- 25. 25 Who is actually taking the picture? Are you smiling? Are your eyes open? Who added locaIon? Who added metadata? Smartphones are supporIng your storytelling…
- 26. 26 What is real? Who is the arFst? Algorithm is acIvely proposing a specific way to tell the story…
- 27. 27 Is this an incepFon? From where the SELFIE habit come from? Why do you want to share this picture with “social” friends? We are the consequence of the tools we use Mutual influence, induced need, incepIon Your phone is influencing the start of a new story

- 29. 29 ProacCve Panorama Androids examine every picture you take -‐ and -‐ it proacIvely assembles a panorama without your request. Your phone is autonomously building a frame of the story
- 30. 30 Build the story One-‐click Movie trailer Families started to collect and record their special moments in a brand new way, that is actually influencing their lifeIme memories Your phone is autonomously building the teaser of a story
- 31. 31 CollecCng Data Connected objects are usually smart enough to play an automaCc behavior. For example, make a detecIon each “x” minutes, or take a picture each Ime there is a specific condiIon, etc. AutomaIc memories are almost a story. In fact, starIng from a simple acIon repeated in Ime, is easy to create a visualizaIon that supports a specific storytelling.
- 32. 32 Organizing Data Visualizing informaIon is already a first picture of a story. The right visualizaIon is powerful way to influence users. Fitness bracelets records what we do every day. This extended memory, visualized through a dashboard, is able to make our behavior measurable and more understandable. At the same Ime, the new automaCc, visual and mathemaCcal language of these automaCc memories is already part of a brand new kind of storytelling. Your dashboard is a representaIon of you. You are your dashboard. You might desire to achieve a be3er result.
- 33. 33 From interacCon to relaConship Luka is an app that gives recommendaIons in a chat interface. Users can message with quesIons like “Anything fun to do tonight?” Luka then processes those requests and sends back recommendaIons that are based not only on the request itself but your history and preferences. Luka’s storytelling is influencing your choices
- 34. 34 Lived conversaCon Today’s 3.0 update to the Telegram apps makes interacIng with bots super-‐easy. In most cases you won’t even have to type anything, because bots will provide you with a set of custom bu3ons. Bots are simply Telegram accounts operated by soUware – not people – and they'll oUen have AI features. They can do anything – teach, play, search, broadcast, remind, connect, integrate with other services, or even pass commands to the Internet of Things. Your personal assistant “talks” with you on social
- 35. 35 A new way of knowledge Quartz bot is an app that interacts with you, offering up news stories which you can choose to get more informaIon about or move on to the next. People don’t read the news anymore? Let’s allow computers to build stories that might fit the users short a3enIon span.

- 38. Our Connected Objects started helping us to tell stories, but they might learn to tell their own stories, exactly like CARS that are learning to DRIVE. 38
- 39. 39 Storyteller objects are already influencing the scene. Younger generaCons are seeing faces instead screens... The incoming communicaIon will be a relaIonship in which objects emerge -‐from the Fog-‐ as real enCCes.
- 41. What designers should design, today? 41
- 42. 42 THINGS are evolving faster than we might expect
- 43. Push design boundaries to new territories. Embrace and celebrate diversity. Be much more than a “pixel shaper”. 43
- 44. 44 What designers should design, today? Behaviors, Data, Conversations, Mutual Learning, Stories…
- 45. 45 What designers should design, today? #Life#IoT, #cognitivecomputing, #robots, #worlds, #artificiallife …
- 46. 46 KK: “what technology wants… is what LIFE wants” Yes, Life
- 47. 47 This is NOT a “business like usual” moment into the design industry.
- 48. People expectaIons are shaped by consumer technologies. 48
- 49. 49 The incoming stories, crafted together with our connected objects, will make History of computing and society (soon).
- 50. 50 There is life BEYOND the PIXELS, BEYOND the FRAME of the screen… I'm pretty sure there's a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously good looking. (Derek Zoolander)
- 51. 51 Infuse HUMANITY into everything (or everything it will evolve without it)
