Being able to cope with connectivity and getting things done it´s not an easy task. Let to itself, the Net will say "just connect". But to meaninfully create we need downtime. Seek pause and think. This is the presentation I made in the first international Bettakultcha that was streamed life using Google Hangouts. Anyone can join Bettakultcha online. If are interested please visit http://bettakultcha.com/ for more information.

Editor's Notes
- \n
- 1. What does technology want? \nInformation wants to connect everything to everything.\nThe Net says, "just connect". Everyone to everyone, everything to everything.\n
- 2. No headquarters, no "I"\nIn this global mind there is no harmony. All is in flux.\nThis mind made of computers and nature, does not allow the parts to understand the hole” says Kevin Kelly and the quest to find coherence will be futile. \nIt´s like breathing air, it happens even if we are not aware of it. \nImage credit (Popa Virgil) http://www.mindvision.ro\n\n
- 3. As everything is connected you can start anywhere and end up everywhere.\nThis is great. What you learn in one place can be applied somewhere else. Imagination, creativity and innovation all are connected. Our brains work like a symphony more than in silos. \nSource http://canscorpionssmoke.wordpress.com/2012/10/13/cpr-for-the-imagination/\n\n
- 4. Digital vertigo\nAt the same time, this abundance of information, makes me feel overwhelmed. I sometimes feel like an app having to be updated all the time.\n\n
- 5. My question is How much is Enough?\nThis is a very personal metric that each of us must find. The swedish call this Lagom, the right amount.\n
- 7. 0,0016\nUnlimited data plans, always on,…technology sells the idea of an infinite world. But we know that what we can consciously process is just a tiny fraction.\n
- 6. What not to connect?\nMaybe the question is about What not to connect? \nSystems are interconnected but “living” also means surprises. \nTime for downtime and reflection shows us what to connect and what not.\n\n
- 8. How can we create a systematic approach that helps us to navigate this constant flux? \nConnect and disconnect. Even ourselves temporarily. \nImagen credit http://www.sxc.hu\n\n
- 9. Something that has helped me is what I call personal iteration. \nStarting with the basics and then adding "my most requested feature" over time. \nThe one that I need is not always what technology offers.\n

- 10. Forget elegance; if it works, it´s beautiful.\nI prefer something simple that works that something beautiful with too many choices. \nI want to create with tools and systems that have as less distractions as possible to fulfill my purpose.\n\n\n\n\n
- 11. Swiss knife\nTools that hide complexity for me. Let us build the complex system on our demand.\nThis is how our brain works.\nThing of Google? Something like that.\nCrédito imagen http://www.sxc.hu/photo/816000\n
- 12. Upgrade yourself\nTools rare great. I love tools too. But quoting Patrick Rhone, "I also believe that it pays off to first upgrade the knowledge we have of our own systems before we upgrade to the latest new tool, gadget or system. \n
- 13. Hacha - Know your tools\nHave you checked if your app has that feature you are buying somewhere else? \nKnow your tools. Know them extremely well.\nAsk yourself if your current tool can do the job. \nCrédito imagen http://www.flickr.com/photos/smallape/7185377163/in/faves-simon-finland/\n\n
- 14. Koci - mobile photography\nMost of the times it´s not about the tool. It´s about you. \nCreating digital images you can use filters but zooming with your feet too. \nCreate with auto imposed limitations.\n
- 15. Pretty god hat\nLess is not always more.\nThis is not a “one size feets all" solution. \nI believe its more about building our own systematic approach to how we use the tools so they helps us create better.\n- Pretty god hat http://prettygoodhat.com/2012-11-02-UpgradePaths.html\n\n
- 16. Technology should help me to automate what I repeat most.\nOr what it annoys you the most (email spam).\nRecude the clutter.\n
- 17. I also want to be able to use automation to prevent losing my digital goods. \nIf the center of the system doesn´t create that feature maybe the decentralized part of it will create it.\n\n\n\n\n
- 18. Llavero\nI find beauty in how we make things work for us. How we hack those things to work for us. \nWe are hackers of our own tools, systems and realities.\n
- 19. In this world of sharing I think that more pauses and thinking are necessary. \nTimes of disconnection to think how we want to use our tools. \nHow we can better create with what we already have.\n
- 20. What technology and information want may not always be the best for me. \nI want to challenge myself to think about this next time I am told to use something new to create.\n
