Vers une économie de la contribution La solution du capitalisme à bout de souffle pourrait bien être à chercher du côté des logiciels libres. Bernard Stiegler, philosophe, appelle à passer "du consumérisme toxique à une économie de la contribution". Ce n’est plus un secret pour personne : le capitalisme est en train d’être dévoré par ses propres effets toxiques. Aujourd’hui, l’association comporte plus de 500 membres, économistes, philosophes, informaticiens et toxicologues (car le capitalisme est devenu “addictif” et “pulsionnel”) confondus et ne semble pas s’être trompée de sonnette d’alarme. Malaise du consumérisme L’homme habite un petit moulin industriel reconverti en maison à Epineuil-le-Fleuriel, au beau milieu de la France paysanne. Au 20ème siècle, un nouveau modèle s’est substitué au capitalisme industriel et productiviste du 19ème : le consumérisme, qu’on assimile au Fordisme et qui a cimenté l’opposition producteur/consommateur. Le problème du capitalisme, c’est qu’il détruit nos existences. Poison et remède

Fermer “Nous ne sommes plus dans une économie du désir mais de la dépendance” Pulsionnelle, standardisée, addictive. « Ce qui caractérise notre société actuelle selon moi, c’est son caractère pulsionnel. Du besoin au désir En 1907-1908, une autre forme de capitalisme se met en place sous l’influence de Henry Ford qui, le premier, adopte la production à la chaîne. Du désir à la pulsionMaintenant, voyons l’effet que cela a produit sur la société. La perte de singularité C’est ce processus de destruction du lien social qui fait que l’on assiste à la disparition progressive du désir et à la montée des pulsions. Le sentiment d’exister J’ai étudié Richard Durn, cet homme qui n’était pas un criminel, pas un border-line, qui avait fait des études, qui se disait écolo et qui, en 2002, a assassiné plusieurs membres du conseil municipal de Nanterre au pistolet-mitrailleur.

iPhone & iPod Touch App Crowdsources Locations of EV Charging Stations Cars Published on June 2nd, 2011 | by Zachary Shahan Tina wrote about a Google and Department of Energy initiative to create a comprehensive map of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations for the United States in April. Of course, that is awesome and I have no doubt they will create an awesome and useful map. But now, I’ve just read about what may be an even cooler EV charging station map that’s in the works. Xatori Inc., a software innovation company, has created an iPhone app that provides instant access to EV charging stations and other EV owners. Here’s more from our sister site, Insteading: Beautiful. In addition to just helping people find and access EV infrastructure, the app is focused around supporting and growing an EV culture as well. “We want to build and support a community that’s creating a paradigm shift to a massively cleaner type of transportation,” Xatori co-founder and chief executive Forrest North told TechCrunch. Here’s a little more from Insteading: Thoughts?
How to Innovate Innovation: Takeaways from the Quick MIX Brainstorm (part 1) We recently ran an on-line brainstorming session we call “Quick MIX” focused on a topic related to the current “Innovating Innovation” M-Prize challenge. The question for the Quick MIX was: what is the one thing you’d change to make organizations more innovation-friendly? Over the course of a few days, MIXers from around the world submitted over 100 answers to this question, many of them receiving lots of praise and tweets from the MIX community. 1. Several entries suggested that innovation is often a fuzzy concept in most organizations—that is, different people have disparate views of what innovation is or ought to be. Developing the right metrics goes hand-in-hand with clearer and more holistic definitions of innovation. View all the Quick MIX ideas on defining and measuring innovation 2.

Women Are Not Men: A New Freakonomics Radio Podcast [MUSIC: Nathan Mathes; “Cheer On” (fromBellwether. Arbutus)] DUBNER: More than half of all college students in the U.S., about 57 percent, are female. As of January, women are no longer barred from combat positions in the United States military. [MUSIC: Euforquestra; “Elegua” (fromExplorations in Afrobeat)] DUBNER: In some ways obvious—And in other ways less so. Jennifer HUNT: Well, I was amazed because in many other areas, women are really closing in on men and this gap is just so enormous. DUBNER: That’s Jennifer Hunt, an economist at Rutgers. HUNT: Men are more likely to be in jobs involving design work or development work, so the “D” in the R&D. DUBNER: Let’s see, what else can I tell you about the differences between women and men? John JENSENIUS: Typically, 80 to 85 percent of the lightning fatalities across the United States are men. DUBNER: That’s John Jensenius, a lightning specialist at the National Weather Service. DUBNER: Men are also more prolific at drowning DUBNER: Ah.
