This afternoon Michael Maier, former Shorenstein Fellow and founder and CEO of the German company Blogform Publishing, joined the Berkman Luncheon Series to present on the next generation of digital media platforms in his talk: “Participation, Design, Search: How the Internet is Transforming.”

Michael’s thoughts centered on the idea that digital magazines are starting to pick up, by bringing editorial structure and integrated publishing. Search will not remain Google’s monopoly. The Internet is transforming from an experimental space to a quite mature and professional platform. The next generation (which is today’s) of innovation will introduce more sustainable models and hence change the old media much more than the shockwaves of Web 1.0.

“JZ, live on the big screen, Future of the Internet Luncheon“

In the spirit of One Web Day, a celebration of global online life taking place on September 22nd, as well as Berkman’s 10th anniversary, we dedicated our luncheon series last week to a discussion on “The Future of the Net.”

The Berkman Center kicked off this year’s Luncheon Series on Tuesday, September 11 with a stimulating presentation from world renowned physicist and professor at Harvard’s Department of the History of Science, Peter Galison.

Peter is the Joseph Pellegrino University Professor at Harvard University, a MacArthur Fellow, and spoke on his work around the de-localized production of scientific knowledge–on the ways in which “trading zones” form at the boundary between different scientific languages and practices.

Peter summarized the kind of work he has done on contemporary, massive, spatially dispersed collaborations in physics experiments, and more recent work on the early telegraph networks that so shaped the early formulation of relativity theory.
