Pour libérer la connaissance, votez pirate
Posted by Brice Le Blevennec | Filed under General, Thoughts
A l’issue des dernières élections européennes, un nouvelle formation politique a fait son entrée dans l’hémicycle de Strasbourg : le Parti Pirate. Né en Suède, celui-ci a recueilli plus de 7% des voix lors du scrutin et a même réussi à faire élire deux députés européens. Leur doctrine, selon le site officiel : “Nous sommes de simples citoyens du monde entier, que l’on traite de “pirates” parce qu’ils défendent le partage de la culture et de l’information. Cet accès libre et égal pour tous, la technologie le permet : seuls nous en séparent aujourd’hui quelques intérêts privés, commerciaux ou politiques. ” Autrement dit, le parti pirate combat farouchement la propriété intellectuelle. Et je partage certaines de leurs vues sur la question.

La revanche du Web structuré
Posted by Brice Le Blevennec | Filed under Thoughts
Souvenez-vous : au milieu des années 90, il y avait deux visions, concurrentes et radicalement opposées, quant au devenir des réseaux numériques. La première était représentée par Compuserve et défendait une architecture structurée du réseau : Compuserve formait un système fermé qui possédait sa propre nomenclature et ses propres applications inaccessibles aux non-abonnés. Face à Compuserve, on trouvait d’autres acteurs de premier plan comme America Online et màªme Apple qui offrait son défunt “eWorld“ aux premiers téméraires qui arpentaient le réseau balbutiant (moi par exemple).

Drama 2.0 : vers une nouvelle forme de narration interactive
Posted by Brice Le Blevennec | Filed under Thoughts
“Il était une fois…” Pendant des siècles, la façon de raconter des histoires n’a pas varié d’une virgule. Les règles de leur déroulement étaient immuables et intangibles : unités de temps, d’espace et d’action. Ces principes fondamentaux du récit sont aujourd’hui en train de voler en éclat sous la pression des médias numériques.

De la noosphère au web sémantique
Posted by Brice Le Blevennec | Filed under General, Thoughts
Au début du 20e siècle, le chercheur et philosophe français Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955) développe le concept de noosphère inventé par Vladimir Vernadsk. Wikipedia décrit la noosphère comme une “représentation d’une couche de faible épaisseur entourant la Terre (…) qui matérialiserait à la fois toutes les consciences de l’humanité et toute la capacité de cette dernière à penser”.

Je suis un gamer
Posted by Brice Le Blevennec | Filed under Movies, Thoughts
Je crois sincèrement que les jeux video sont à la base du phénomène culturel le plus important de cette décennie. La somme des talents qui conjuguent leur créativité dans ce secteur dépasse l’entendement. Heureusement que les revenus générés par cette industrie – qui dépassent ceux du cinéma – permettent de financer les armées de créatifs, techniciens, managers, nécessaire pour produire ces expériences ludiques.
