Una maquina del tiempo para todos | Nicolás Fernández | TEDxSantiago


[Applause]

hello how are you listening well if you put

a nicolás fernández díaz I come to

Talk about the past

the past me or the past of all

this was my course when I

I was 6 years old and Iu this picture seems to me

interesting to reverse this story

because the waist under that is me

what is the particle that has this

photo and what makes it interesting is that

each one is a child who is there

is beginning its study and each of

they are full of sleep and full of

motivations are you asking me in that

minute I wanted to be me when during

I said I wanted to be a firefighter

millionaire a and a very complicated thing

but the very dreamy background let’s say yy

I always dreamed of something precisely my

dream was to be able to travel in time

well after giving me some place in the

story an instant lived some

moments in that place and and see what is it

which means what this means of

move to a time that I do not

have been able to live imagined by

example in between dinosaurs

see how this also how

they were great or they always captivated me the

mean for example walk between these

small villages of stone streets

let’s say with with full of bridge towers

castle etc.

and for that they need elevation to be

thinking about that much motivations a lot

stimuli that made me think about that

then I did an exercise of

investigation a little bit that I was

consuming I was wrong that

I was watching what I absorbed to be

thinking about this and daughter threw the

movies that I did not see then this

movie and I think everyone knows her

go back to the future where a scientist

crazy in a way creates a machine that

it made him able to move in the

time not only to the past but

also towards food or jurassic park was

a

an old man who had a lot of silver

he bought an island where he could find the

formula to reproduce again the

dinosaur could be played and one

I could eventually visit this and the

species park and versions walk between

the dinosaurs can touch it

then the old man got away

several died but us and this time

more the scope

If you have not seen it, I recommend it to

the goonies are basically a group of

friends who lived in the same neighborhood and

one of them is an old

map with the track series that during

the movie is being followed and

they find in an old chain

pirate ship full of treasure and and now

we reach the end but the one of aníbal

between then I always went not going to

draw and a couple of weeks ago I said

my mom yes I had saved

some drawing of me when the boy is

drawing the day surely something

incredibly saved I had a box

full and between them in contrast is not

understand but basically a scene from

dinosaur where there is a group of

caveman attacking them I do not know if what

I wanted to eat dinosaurs ello ello

to the dinosaurs violent a lot of blood

a little worrying for the valley had

five years when I told him and but there

up, but there is a person who

it’s as removed from all this that

has another bedding and locked the

yellow considers that a camera of

photo and for chat purposes I said

that I was recording in the past and I

I thought that was inside of it

this situation let’s say then was a

irrefutable proof that I have

transported in time and I was a

little recording what was of the

carnivorous dinosaurs good happened the

time was growing these dreams of

girl are staying in the past

let’s say and I started to interest the

football begin to withdraw us and

cubatas thing between the university and

he went to study architecture and was

studied architecture when with felipe

my partner doing a job of

investigation for a specific theft

we do not find this photograph that

instead of Paris can this

then ironically because santiago does

80

eight years with a public space

enviable and anyone would like it

today some steps on the way

the first level public transport

some tram like the best capitals

from europe of the class to the city

all the points were respected more

back the church and so on

about last year he launched

a contest to redesign the axis

alameda de santiago I do not know if they saw it

where the best architect is summoned

south america urbanist chile and so on

and the winning prize the first place

who took this call was a

project practically pointed

we were together we are to make a

tremendous investment what you ‘re going to whom

nobody knows because many times

we do not know what happens but basically

is going to design this photo to me already

felipe did not cause so much impression so much

the pact that we govern we publish

some social network are you the

have to see how we are going to do what

only that you care you like it and I put it

on twitter that I had at that time and

something happened that had never happened before

They caught me I came to twitter one year

talking just attack when you post that

Photo

I had seven absolute rule retweets and

we started to go up a couple more we gave

realize that this is causing a

impact and people like it then

a window one at a break starts with

felipe we said let’s make an account

specific upload historical photo

because I really only see them

blogs on the internet is a spicy medium

Yes ones because if they are not

they look more like a book history of

school and we created the land happened

fast the time the first week already

they had more than 5,000 followers and we

we realized this people are interested in

we started in this yes I want they were

increasing exponentially and what

more we liked it was famous people here

or influential in this area did not fish

rite aid we will appear as some

I expected our opinion as how

respected in the ru

I feel like we were nobody

in fact it was before behind the absolute

anonymity behind this account no no

knowing each other famous architect

mayor mayor let’s say people who were

I was fairly influential in advance

and we realized that photography

historical is very powerful because

has two reasons why powerful one

because it is to achieve manages to excite the

person who receives it

If you’ll get a picture of your neighborhood

immediately it excites you and for another and

for another reason

the second is that within the

speed and dynamism that is in the

social network is one of those is the the

Historical photograph forgiveness is capable

that one can stay stuck watching

what follows what does not follow that has changed

to change and that in a social network that

each one dedicates less than a second to

the photograph that is something something

important you have and they did not start

invite different instances of

conversation with the people who had

references theme photography and

history what museum architect and so on

with the expectation that it is to find

to someone like that a serious cult character

let’s say with several years that since of

some way like that or witness the

development the very learned city with its

pipe that will surely delegate you a

old man who collects fort but they are not

this pair of cakes behind that what

only they knew they had no more

of 25 years the only thing he had done

it was to go back to circulate photography

historical and so scattered somewhere

of the internet and it was there that we did not go

grabbing mission and we started aa

collect and collect collect

historical photography let’s say alps

antiquarian felipe buy postale no

they start arriving and everything basically

everything a historical photograph or

digitized and we add to our

our file to publish them all

the days the social network and web page

they gave and we did not just stay there

because we discovered that there was a

a third list was much more valuable

that was the file photograph

relatives

this photograph is much more valuable

because because never in history has

been public besides being part of the

visual record of our country and part

of our history I had never seen

except the person who took it out

probably very old or

unfortunately he is dead or his

relatives and victims of technology

we were able to digitize they were going

accumulating dust in some sung trunk

over 100 years saved one says or the

chub slide like the digital one did

but positive the most modern that is

negative and the most modern negative that

the glass plate and until then

we decided all photography

get together and historical photography

It has a lot of power and why do I say that

you surely do not recognize this

Photography

this is about the mall more than

150 years where building

the highest building was the

palace the coin that you can see the

highest building santiago from that

perspective

fifty years later in the place

from the same place another photographer who

They were not previously known between this

Take the same picture in the same

address and the place had changed

Monea flatly do not know if

we said let’s do the same as

an essay the third photo there is house and the

place is like that

another example is not known in reñaca

this year 20 and the year 90

this base and there it was there when publishing

photographs the social networks that we

we realized that participation

of the user was much more valuable

that our

much more valuable we already

we had some knowledge was very

limited and it’s not silly to think that a

arica person has much more

knowledge of arica because what

heard from his grandfather that a person

of rancagua and likewise once a

rancagua knows much more about rancagua than

a contrary person

then we realized that

terrain not only followed him and

contributed photographers architects but

that also people of all

all respect all the origins of

all labor interests and that’s why

that we create a platform based on

This accordingly we call

collaborative time machine because

collaborative has said because the

they build themselves and it is

built in function for it being

the first call that is to invite them to

upload your photograph of your own

archive

that’s why in one place we

we come the more than 40,000 photograph

historical we have gathered and the

we provide free provision for

everyone on this website will be able to

rate download share

photography in social network and most

important thing is that you can

edit the content with knowledge

of each one if this place of

he does not really know

I know what happened there in my grandfather

how much history that does not seem to us

cultivate appear you write

in this way it becomes more acute

information of each photograph

In addition, this platform geolocates each

photograph in the exact place where it was

taken the photo where a man does 100

years the thing stopped photo

we detect place the

geolocated and in the background a

map filled with pins

with information from different photography

historical then you imagine what

that keeps walking through some town or

a city a landscape and you get a

notification to the cell that a

attacker is walking very close to

a photograph that that thing does more

of 100 years approaching to get in the

point to start turning the cell phone and

to fit historical photography

I ‘m on my cell phone with the environment

merengue after this can be done in

different places you can transport

to different times and your cell phone

immediately it becomes a

window to the past and so the step by step

is changing our city and around

at the same time if I’m walking by

the place for a city in this case that

from Baquedano and he tells me that I’m dry

the photograph but if I approach it no longer

He tells me that his nation does not tell me

are five or ten or 50 of the same point

in

the address is that it could be done in

that on this occasion if that happens it will

could spherically build a

historical context and it ‘s outside that is

a bubble in time let’s say one

could transport technology as

of virtual reality and eventually

it would be the closest thing for us

to know our history and travel

to the past and it would be and only then that

fulfill the child’s dream of the photo

of cabro boy who wanted to travel to

past true and because important and

because I come back for this because in the

second row to the middle on the right is

my partner who was a child of itself

partner who is with them

dreams that already head and that twenty

years later being companions

we are still fighting for the same

dream that create this machine the

time for everything and he could not travel to

passed many
