Back from my trip to New York, I could feel how the optimist and pride light the face of every New Yorker with the recent Obama’s selection.
This is a good sensation and, to learn more about that, I decide to talk about Obama’s career with the people and to buy the issue of the month of the Time magazine (an historical number where Obama’s was selected the person of the year).
"His genome is global, his mind is innovative, his world is networked, and his spirit is democratic"
Reading the interview, and after the conversations about he, it’s amazing how the American people was open to concepts like the spirit of the work, competence and union like a great feature of humanity. Surprising for this days, when all the media is extending the individualism and the trivial concepts, every day more and more far of real human behaviors.
There is hope, and, obviously, there is real requirement of leaders with clear values, and courage to show the way for a nation. This new feeling is very important, that it means that the new blood that grows plenty of social preoccupations will have his place.

* The TED Conference, held annually in Long Beach, is still the heart of TED. More than a thousand people now attend — indeed, the event sells out a year in advance — and the content has expanded to include science, business, the arts and the global issues facing our world. Over four days, 50 speakers each take an 18-minute slot, and there are many shorter pieces of content, including music, performance and comedy. There are no breakout groups. Everyone shares the same experience. It shouldn't work, but it does. It works because all of knowledge is connected. Every so often it makes sense to emerge from the trenches we dig for a living, and ascend to a 30,000-foot view, where we see, to our astonishment, an intricately interconnected whole.
* Bestiario is one of the leading studios when it comes to the theme of data visualization. Over the last three years, they have used diverse business models that have always ended up at exactly the same point: the relationship between dogma and product.
P.D.: these days, Barcelona meets Artfutura*, a very inspirational festival.
* Since January 1990, ArtFutura, the festival of Digital Culture and Creativity of reference in Spain, has explored the most interesting projects and ideas that have come up on the international panorama of new media, interactive design, videogames and digital animation.
Its activities include conferences, workshops, interactive installations, exhibitions and live performances.

Humanity Plus (formerly the World Transhumanist Association) has launched h+, a stylish, web-based quarterly magazine that focuses on transhumanism, covering the scientific, technological, and cultural developments that are challenging and overcoming human limitations.
Edited by the legendary RU Sirius, co-founder and editor of the seminal Mondo 2000 magazine, and beautifully designed by virtual worlds artist D.C.
