good night my name is roger houses
alatriste and I am a garbage generator
cybernetics
some of you have also
and we have been living with
smartphones just ten years ago
steve jobs introduced the first iphone and
in these ten years these little machines
superpowers have changed the world in
different aspects in the social in what
politically in the cultural in what
economic and they have also changed us
us as people
It must be said, we have been here for ten years
generating digital content in a way
everyday maybe we realize but
constantly these little machines that
they have microphones cameras and they are
connected to the internet we have done this
a habit and that moment has come
poll
stand up please by all
favor
so we also express it a little bit and
I’m going to ask them to stand
only people who have not
published nothing on the internet today all
people who have not updated their
facebook profile all people
that they have not posted a single tweet
all the people who have not climbed
a photo to instagram is already good
all the photos the people who do not
have sent a whatsapp message
we are generating digital content
all the time to forgive allies and
loosen I’m sorry to tell you that all these
things that we publish most of
they are absolutely irrelevant
we publish for different things but
above all we publish them
because we have an urge to be
visible
most of the things that we publish
respond to this need that we have
to get a like to get some
answer
this has generated a vicious circle
tremendous of which we have the
guilt and we are the ones who have the worst
part because this constant publication
constant content to what it leads
is to publish more to be able to be
visible and to get those answers
what we want we are guilty of
this very avalanche in which we
we are joining and we are not alone
this has to do with your own
platforms that reward in quotes to
the people that more things public neither
in those who have more lax internet
we will think about this today’s children
in day they do not want to be astronauts not
they want to be firefighters want to be
Youtubers as I said before were
the people we are publishing
things all the time and we are also
signing to see that you have published the
person who is sitting next to
US
then there are the media
that publish this type of headlines
bait only to generate traffic
are the channels of this and better
I speak and then there are also the brands
that you have also made by trying
tell stories to link with the
people although really what they are
doing in most cases is
make ads disguised as stories
that nobody wants to see together between
everybody
we publish or generate more than 2.5
millions of exa bytes every day
more or less to understand them are 350
million songs or 90 years of
audiovisual content on high
definition
every day that is to say we generate
contents above our
possibilities and this is something that
nobody really has thought
although we think it very little because
because it is cyberbull does not bother us
we do not open the door of our house and
us
let’s see garbage on the floor does not smell
wrong so that reason does not hinder and in fact
wait because the doe height is
pretty
we open facebook and we see a lot of
Perfectly tuned photos
perfectly filtered some more or
less well framed by beaches
spectacular sunsets
beautiful tata kiss of scallops
perfectly plated garbage
Pretty is not good for anything but there
is and makes us kill the time that before
we killed listening to a record or
talking to people but well this what
what it generates is a problem that has two
sheds
the contents are unsustainable in two
forms first is the unsustainability
intellectual is to say all this time
that we lose and that we dedicate to him
just browse between these photos
that are absolutely irrelevant
our videos that tells us anything
but also the time we lose
filtering them before and then king watching
see how many people have given us like everything
this time we could be
taking advantage of doing something else
let’s think that 50 percent of the
people who live in this world do not
has access to the internet and yet not
I know if some others have had this
feeling of saying hey
I think I could have read a good
book in all this time that I have
giving him lax photos of kittens
but it is only part of the problem
the other part and where we least think
it’s invisible garbage and for this they
is going to put my own example in 2010
opened instagram of which I already see that
they are all users
since then I went up to this network 1917
photos or videos more or less a ratio of
1 273 per year or five per week this
It does not seem like anything exaggerated
after what they just told us
here the problem is what is not seen in
this same time lapse
my phone that is connected to me
dropbox account everything that I
up everything that I photographed
or recording this network is directly uploaded
in this time lapse in this same
Time lapse has been uploaded to this network
23 thousand photos and videos at a ratio of 3
thousand 500 per year and 10 per day in my
defense I have to say that in this
time lapse has had two children and
that is terrible to be contained in my
dropbox account there are about 100 gigabytes
of these contents that nobody sees and that
they are there rest two more or less
the equivalent of having all the
seasons of breaking bad the mad men and
of game of thrones together what my
videos and photos are pretty less
entertaining that these things but are
there they are in the cloud and this brings us
to the second point that is the
ecological sustainability of
contents
everything that we raise to all
these networks including the messages that
We upload to or send through
whatsapp stay in the cloud and the cloud
the truth is that it is one of the best
inventions or at least the best
names that have been put on the
last years because we think
in the cloud and we think like in the clouds
that I was counting light and makes a
not beautiful time with a sky
Blue back and crocodile-shaped
but in reality the clouds look like
more to this the cloud is formed from these
data centers that are strengths
gigantic that host the servers
that host the data and these centers
data have an ecological impact
from which practically nobody is
conscious at the time of publishing
Let ‘s talk a little bit about cloud
little data nothing more to for
illustrate the matter
these data centers with a lot
energy mainly because they have
to be plugged in all the time for
that we do not fall whatsapp and that
our photo is available all the
time and also have to be cold
whereby the energy consumption is
a hundred times higher than any
office building that can be
imagine langfang china is the center
of data bigger than me of 60
hectares and as measures that do not
be hectares on a soccer field
they are about 100 fields of
football in the world there are about 7 thousand 500
data centers and this number grows to
a rate of 21 percent each year and
it is estimated that this is the good news
that by 2020 the 8 percent of these
data centers will be green great
News
let’s think about the following while a thousand
millions of people in this world do not
they have access to electric power
we waste energy watching
to see how many life to the last
photo that we upload also but not all
It is so serious
let’s see internet is a great invention
probably one of the best
inventions of humanity
the problem is that just like how
happened with cars or as happened with
the planes we are the first
generation that has had to learn to
use this and we have to learn to use
and that entails taking many scratches
that’s why I’m not saying we cut our
Internet connection and we have our
smartphone in the trash but we think
we think before publishing who you
interesting what I’m about to
to post
we think that there is more content there
available that we can
consume in all our life and that of
our children and our grandchildren
let’s think that it is like this to see garbage the
pretty the invisible takes away time and
it takes away energy
we think before publishing because no
post is also share
many thanks
me
