Henry Ford once said I invented nothing new. I assembled the discoveries of other men behind whom were centuries of work. I think everything is a remix. I think this is a better way to conceive of creativity. Through my work I've been trying to find ways to harness and unveil this. I'm on a mission to make sharing cool and on a mission to make sharing hip. Because I really believe it can disrupt outdated modes of business and help us leapfrog over wasteful forms of hyper-consumption. You know, teach us when enough is really enough. For me this kind of personifies this interconnected world where everything is intertwined. And the dots are, it's all about the dots joining together. That is, combining two or more fields and creating something new at the intersection. You can make new English words by squishing two other English words together. This is called compounding. Words in English are like Lego. If you use enough force you can push any two of them together. We do this all the time in English words like heartbroken, bookworm and sandcastle are all compound words. And it's a cognitive synergy where we mash up these two things which don't go together. And imagine the mash up of these things in the future when these things come together and experiments of the future. The big question is what does the future hold? I think to answer that question you need to understand how human beings bring together their own brains and enable their ideas to combine and recombine to meet and indeed to mate. In other words you need to understand how ideas have sex. Now by rights this is kind of like a cloning project like what produced Dolly but it's actually very different. Look around you. He will do in this room still clumsily drifting in this prime evil soup of culture is another replicator. Information that we copy from person to person by imitation, by language, by telling stories, by doing things, by wearing clothes, this is information copied with variation and selection. This is design process going on. Design is a slippery and a lusive phenomenon which has meant different things at different times. Yesterday's internet was a platform for the presentation of content. The internet of today is a platform for computation. The internet is becoming a giant global computer and every time you go on it you upload a video, you do a Google search, you remix something, you're programming this big global computer that we all share. I'm not talking about nor justifying other people taking other people's content, whole style and distributing it without the permission of the copyright owner. I'm talking about people taking and recreating using other people's content, taking the songs of the day and the old songs and remixing them to make something different. I can hear something that I love in a piece of media and I can co-opt it and insert myself into the narrative to create something new. So without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, I will present to you a copy, the official copy. Let's hear that Ted's down again, right? I just wanted to say thank you for letting me be in this world.
