Personas | Metropath(ologies)
by possibly noteworthy at 8:19 am EDT, Aug 20, 2009

Aaron Zinman:

Personas is a component of the Metropath(ologies) exhibit, currently on display at the MIT Museum by the Sociable Media Group from the MIT Media Lab. It uses sophisticated natural language processing and the Internet to create a data portrait of one's aggregated online identity. In short, Personas shows you how the Internet sees you.

Decius:

Noooooo problem ... don't worry about privacy ... privacy is dead ... there's no privacy ... just more databases ... that's what you want ... that's what you NEED ... Buy my shit! Buy it -- give me money! Don't worry about the consequences ... there's no consequences. If you give me money, everything's going to be cool, okay? It's gonna be cool. Give me money. No consequences, no whammies, money. Money for me ... Money for me, databases for you.

Michael Osinski:

Here's one thing that's definitely true: The software proved to be more sophisticated than the people who used it, and that has caused the whole world a lot of problems.

Michael Lewis:

Jake DeSantis just wanted to know why the public perception ... was so different from the private perception ...

Anthony Lane on Peter O'Toole as T. E. Lawrence in David Lean's 1962 film:

He halts and shouts across the water, "Who are you?," and again, "Who are you?" We look at the face of the man from the desert. His eyes are even bluer than the canal, but he says nothing. Maybe his tongue is too dry for speech. Maybe he has no answer.
