THE NETWORKED REVOLUTION

USED TO MEAN "SOMETHING COMPLICATED, UNDERVALUED BUT NECESSARY IN THE

FUTURE.” BUT NOW MEANS "THE FUTURE OF MY BUSINESS", "CREATIVITY", "EXCITEMENT". THE POSSIBILITY OF REINVENTION IN MY CAREER

AND A WAY OF STAYING YOUNG.

IT'S A WAY OF LIFE, FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE, AND THE MORE WE CAN

LEARN WAYS TO MAKE IT BETTER, THE BETTER OUR

LIVES WILL BE

DIGITAL = TECHNICAL TERM AND A OVERWHELMING MASS OF NEW MARKETING POSSIBILITIES, THAT I AM NOT VERY FAMILIAR WITH

HUMAN BEHAVIOR

ALL REVOLUTIONS ARE FUELED BY:

TO UNDERSTAND WHERE WE ARE GOING,

WE NEED TO KNOW WHERE WE'VE BEEN.

What does our collective lived experience look like?
