One of the themes of his year's conference was -Green,' which is ironic given the massive amounts of energy and resources that obviously were consumed to put on this spectacle of international speakers, installations, programs and daily print media, and big, big parties. So was there anything truly -green' at PICNIC?

The seminar was organized by the institute's Eric Gullberg and was based on a <a href="http://www.tii.se/node/2451">research project</a> he initiated there to explore the use of ambient media to restore -information symmetry' in our lives. Information Asymmetry is when one side of a two-party deal has more information than the other, such as web site that by reading your IP address already knows something about your browsing history before you even start to explore the site. Gullberg's seminar asked participants to share strategies for reclaiming our personal data from third parties by making information more transparent to support ecological and ethical goals.... <a href="http://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/09/reclaim-your-data-slow-design-in-sweden.php">Read the full story on TreeHugger</a>http://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/09/reclaim-your-data-slow-design-in-sweden.phpWed, 24 Sep 2008 10:31:00 GMThttp://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/09/treehugger_welc_68.phpSorry, this bio is not available.... <a href="http://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/09/treehugger_welc_68.php">Read the full story on TreeHugger</a>http://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/09/treehugger_welc_68.phpWed, 17 Sep 2008 09:49:22 GMT
