DESCRIPTION

From cave paintings to 17th century libraries to the internet, the history of content is a history of the tensions between archive and access, curation and comprehensiveness. This is a brief talk about the 'history of content' followed by a hypothesis about its post-book future. We advocate the proliferation of Armchair Apps - apps that present large but finite collections of curated content as well designed interactive experiences.

“There is no comprehension of any written piece that does not at least in part depend upon the forms in which it reaches its reader.”
