welcome and thank you for coming.we appreciate the time.let’s have some fun.
HI MICHAEL FROM ISOBAR
isobar is a global agency with over 3,000 people across 30 plus countriesgoogle us and you’ll see what we do - cranes, lasers, training products, hotel parties, etcwe believe in “creatives & creators”
ISOBARCREATE ACCELERATOR FORMAT
isobar create is our accelerator or “hackathon” format.for us it’s not a stunt, it’s an extension of what we do everyday.and it’s at the core of what we believe.“bringing people and brands together like never before”
WHY? IMPORTANT
why is it important to create and have hackathons?

stretch
provides opportunity to use different muscles.an opportunity to stretch and extend ideas.

fail
it’s a very safe place to fail. your day job probably doesn’t reward you for this...we are looking for some glorious failures.

8
fail
like never before
that’s when we can transcend the everyday...and just maybe, maybe change everything.
REAL IMPORTANT
for our work, making real things is important.
10
making things real is the key to generating understanding of your idea...this is why rapid prototyping is so important.tell someone and they may understand your idea, show them part of your idea and their brain fills in the possibilities for it.

here we go again

fail
why nfc?
why nfc again? we were going to do something else... but still don’t see a lot of consumer-centric nfc innovation.we think it’s a very important space... with massive potential.
TANGIBLE DESIGN INTANGIBLE DESIGN
what makes nfc so important? it marks a return to tangible design - what do i mean by that? digital obliterates form.for the past 30 yrs we have been moving away from tangible design in the name of efficiency... and that’s the root of a lot of consumer tension.

no directions needed
tangible design - easily understood - purpose is implied.no need for a code here.

17
the desktop metaphor at the core of the digital revolution is not tangible.requires taxonomies on top of taxonomies be learned.

fighting our way back ever since

jeff han made us all understand multi touch...and mr jobs brought it to us

and... TANGIBLE DESIGN is why less than 10% of americans have ever scanned one of these...even once!qr codes are intangible design... and i think tangible design technology, like nfc, will wipe out hope for mass consumer adoption of qr codes w/in the next 24 months
NFC THE RETURN OF TANGIBLE DESIGN
the technology is here...we are very close to a huge return to tangible design.

computer / machinevision
near fieldcommunication
2 tangible design technologies
IMO - a two separate technologies will drive this in the near term...(and obliterate the need for qrcodes in the next 24 months)
WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET WHAT YOU TOUCH IS WHAT YOU GET
forget what they are called. what’s important is what they unlock... computer vision - WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET. nfc - WHAT YOU TOUCH IS WHAT YOU GET.
COMPUTER / MACHINE VISION WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET

you have probably seen it in google goggles.the machine knows what you are looking at (even if you don’t).would you ever scan a code if you could just do this? nope.

we have been working on this a lot at isobar for a variety of projects. its has other uses at retail also...computer vision is more effective & versatile than any bar code & cheaper than any radio tag
NFC NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION WHAT YOU TOUCH IS WHAT YOU GET
Title Line OneSecondary title line
28
it took 45 kids in a room to tell how stupid we were...NFC is not just about commerce... it’s connecting...it’s kinda funny how excited being stupid made us and how it made us rethink a lot of things... like....
RETHINK NOW
rethink now

people say there are no nfc phones...these stickers are currently less than a dollar.imagine stickers from brands that work with their app.don’t wait for phones, turn the technology inside out - embed readers & use branded tags!
RETHINK GAMING
rethink gaming

angry birds and fruit ninja from rovio have nfc level up now.unlock it through NFC tags in outdoor posters...or pay levels forward with consumers.gaming might be one of the biggest areas of untapped nfc potential.
RETHINK ENTERTAINMENT

what you touch is what you get...touch something with music, get music - n9 nfc “touch” pairing to headset.instant media access from just touching...this could be huge for out of home transit, etc.
RETHINK BRAND BENEFIT & LOYALTY

everyone wants to skip checkout - no more lines and everyone wants to get around cc companies - merchants, consumers even brands.google wallet with prepaid option is just begining - iphone5 with itunes NFC coming soon.
RETHINK TRAVEL

+
= total footprint
nfc
boarding passes, transit cards, taxi payment, fuel payment...combined with your adidas micoach / pedometer can provide a very broad & deep picture of your life...radical transparency has the ability to change consumer behavior.
RETHINK REALITY
Title Line OneSecondary title line

personal data & vanity metrics are seamlessly captured delivering a new level of transparency
it’s not the communication between devices that is going to change everything...it’s the collection of these desperate data sets together for the first time unlocking new possibilities & understanding.
OK WHY 32?
this isobar create is 32 hours.... why?it needed to be during the week because of APPNATION III...during the week you need flex time... but have enough time to do something that could change everything.
DO WHAT YOU NEED TO TO MAKE SOMETHING GREAT
do what you need to...
BUT FLEX WORK IN SHIFTS
but there are no points for staying in your seat the whole time...

get some sleep
i say this every-time...
