I think everyone in the audience has already asked about the future,
At least in a conversation (saskia) and pressing the progress button.
I am fond of questions about the future,
I want to know how the future will be.
The news has never been so dense and fast,
Through our planet, we share our thoughts and emotions in real time,
What will remain of all these posts, publications, pleasures and tweets?
How will our world look 100 years from now?
Or 1000 years?
Let us try to answer that with what we know from the past.
Less than 1 percent of archaeological letters
Still known.
Since dissemination and reproduction have taken a great deal of effort,
We are still, after 2,000 years,
We can still rebuild the archaeological world and its way of thinking.
By contrast, the publication today
Simple as a mere publication or tweaking or uploading videos,
Publication is not limited to scientists and newspapers only.
But it is now accessible to everyone.
Since false science is very attractive,
These stories about crop circles and astronauts
You find a large fan base,
It is more widespread than scientific journals.
That’s why the search for crop circles on Google
Has recorded 20 million searches.
While the landing on the moon, for example, recorded only 6 million searches.
An alarming fact is that 5 million of those 6 million
Is a search for “trick landing on the moon”.
You know, the Gaia space probe
It produces the most detailed map of our galaxy.
Produces a lot of information?
However, throughout the course of his 5-year mission
The resulting information as a whole is greatly diminished
Compared to daily data traffic on the Internet.
The things we spend money on, which we make our efforts on,
Will sink into the ocean of inconsistent content of no importance
And made it a repetition.
Do you see?
A picture of our time from a distance of 2000 years
Will result in a very distorted picture of our time.
Do you know these failed videos?
Where people hurt themselves while doing stupid things.
Like trying to stand on a huge rubber ball?
Do you know what people will think in the future?
“Well, these people from the 21st century have never made space trips.”
“Many documents prove”
“They misinterpret and interpret the Law of Attraction.”
Their image of us in the future will be very distorted,
They will most likely define our age
With pornographic videos and Maine Kraft videos
Silves and cats pictures …
But to have a memory even if it failed in some respects
It is better than not to have a memory at all.
What’s the reason?
They say the Internet is not forgotten, right?
But I want you to think about it:
These days the World Wide Web has been transformed into a definition:
World-wide.
There are 3.4 billion people connected to the Internet,
And that number of Internet users
They make information and move data.
Every minute,
Video clips of 600 hours duration are uploaded to YouTube.
This is only from our current year 2016.
In the total period
For 35,000 years,
30,000 years ago, we began to paint in caves,
Only 4500 years ago we built pyramids.
This is something long to lift.
More and more videos are clearly higher than cell phones
This led to that
The volume of data traffic in the last 10 years
Has doubled and doubled and doubled every 18 months.
Now I want you to take a different perspective:
Data traffic needs energy, and energy produces carbon emissions.
In fact, the Internet is already responsible
About 3% of global carbon emissions.
Even if data traffic increased in the next 10 years
As much as in the past 10 years,
Carbon emissions will rise 50 percent from today.
Theoretically, the soul will soon run out of us.
This critical phase is very imminent, as for the adoption of new technologies
Such as renewable energy resources or non-electric data carriers
Both were maximized.
This means that in the near future,
Environmental and economic causes
You’ll force us to wipe your data in bulk.
Massively erased will be implemented by algorithms.
In other words,
The picture that our grandchildren will have about our time
It will be manufactured by machines.
The application of Snape Chat may be a common feature in the future
Clear after a predetermined period,
Resulting in a society that is floating on a permanent present,
His past has not returned.
That is why today we must choose
What we want to keep for tomorrow.
The Human Memory Project retains our stories,
For both our grandchildren and the distant future.
This is achieved by a very strong means,
They are stored and protected at depth in the salts mine in Halstatt,
UNESCO World Heritage Area in the Austrian Alps.
And ceramic tablets carrying information
This means that the texts have become messages and that the images have become footage.
Those ceramic discs
It is the most powerful means of saving data we have previously used:
They are resistant to high heat and pressure,
Water and chemicals,
Radiation,
And magnetism.
In order to restore a future period of time,
Every person who has a role in this project receives a commemorative coin
A small ceramic disk indicates the location of this archive
At the same time acting as a barrier against unauthorized access.
It is only understood by a community
He has an understanding technique similar to what we have now.
The languages change, so there is a decoding tool:
You can imagine guessing games from the pictures
Thousands of images of things and attitudes
Directly categorized as words per image,
Combined with the theoretical volumes of our major languages,
Such as lexicon, grammar, phrases and dictation.
The content of the human memory project
Divided into 3 sections,
There is common content, specific content, and individual content.
In order to convey the most objective, universal and inclusive picture,
We have created certain mechanisms to fill this archive with content.
For example,
Large newspapers from every country send their opening news.
The opening news is not just news,
They are already translated somewhat,
Can be refuted.
Similarly, let’s have important magazines to store their monthly numbers.
The popular content randomly selects accounts from Facebook.
And of course strange things,
Such as conspiracy theories and space crop circles,
Declared as foreign.
Maybe we’ll give them what they’re laughing at in the future.
Institutions contribute to these specific content
Such as museums, universities, or literature and science awards.
An important part of human memory is authentication
With regard to nuclear waste depots by atomic industries.
Individual content consists of you and me:
Life stories, wedding pictures, recipes, cookies,
Anything you find worth preserving forever.
Anyone can share in the memory of humanity.
Send your personal message in a bottle to the receiver.
Of course, the human memory project raises a few questions.
One question is:
Who in the future may care about our heritage?
Well, as long as societies arise on the principle of cause and effect,
The academic application of this principle,
The question “What was before?” It is part of common understanding.
That is why we are interested in our roots
As much as the Romans were interested in their roots.
The most interesting question for me is
What side effects will this project have on our present?
There is no great difference
Between the physical effects that we leave behind us and our heritage on the Internet?
The human race has never had such an impact on our vital environment.
Chemical toxic waste will more than double our species.
And the impact of global warming
It will be the life of countless generations
However, at the same time,
We do not leave any solid records of our present activities at all.
In fact, we inhabit this planet as if it does not exist for tomorrow.
We disperse the place and leave without paying the rent.
Think of our surveillance cameras:
We agree to be monitored all day
Because we understand that this will be transferred without committing criminal acts,
If anything happened,
The suspect is quickly identified.
There are no surveillance cameras watching our planet.
In the future will be completely unknown,
“who did that?”
“Who was responsible for the imbalance of the environment?”
Perhaps for this reason we act like the irascible Caliphs?
Because no one will ever know?
Would not be a permanent record of our current activities
To make us act more responsibly?
If it is known forever, who benefited from the exploitation of our planet,
Any families and any groups,
On which companies we take responsibility.
Would that change anything?
I think so.
As we know, a unified voice can make a big difference.
Consider Avaz for example.
So let’s pick up a big Sylvie picture.
I mean, regardless of all the chaos around us.
There are many amazing things happening.
The discoveries are very impressive.
Remember the image of Pluto
The effect of quantum physics,
Or the last indigenous tribes,
Or how smart phones changed our lives?
I mean, as in any generation,
We have great stories to tell.
Or TED talks, what a wonderful description of what drives us today.
Let us keep the roots of our grandchildren,
We give them the past
To give them a chance to withstand the future.
We ourselves, for us, need the past to understand the present.
As the humanitarian (Wilhelm von Humboldt)
200 years ago:
“Only those who know their past can have a future.”
thank you.
(clap)
