"Visionary and pioneering, this book will be impactful for the Spatial Computing industry. Mike is one of the deep thinkers I turn to in order to better understand the seismic shift in communications and content that is upon us."
— Cathy Hackl, XR Futurist , #4 Top Tech Voice on LinkedIn
"Mike’s first book, ‘Envisioning Holograms’, is a finely distilled guidebook – past experience informing present practice. ‘The Age of Smart Information’, on the other hand, is a twenty-second century treasure map arriving via pneumatic tube, sent by the Time Lords. This book frames the future of Information Science. Read, absorb, and be amazed."
— Tony Parisi, Unity Technologies exec, Industry legend
"A must-read! Pell explains how Smart Information will affect us. Learn how you can control it, before it controls you."
— Naomi Assaraf, Chief Marketing Officer, cloudHQ
"This book is clearly from the future – so if you plan to shape a part of it…grab your highlighter."
— Amy Peck, CEO, EndeavorVR
"Mike Pell thoughtfully describes the way emergent tech and AI will shape our future lives — from the micro-level to the systemic — and gives us a path today that we can follow to ensure a better tomorrow!"— Brittan Heller, Technology and Human Rights Fellow, Harvard
DESCRIPTION
Our relationship to content, and the real world itself, is changing. As we enter this next phase of ubiquitous, invisible, wearable computing, what was flat, now has dimensions. What was dead, is now alive, remarkably energized by AI and Spatial Computing. Author, Mike Pell, explains in the following pages how our data, text, pictures, graphics, and anything else really, can be enabled to reveal deeper meaning, hidden relationships, and even tell its own story.
In this book, Pell shares his compelling vision for the future form of our most vital and humble communications tool – text. Readers of Pell’s first book, Envisioning Holograms, were given a unique look at the design thinking and approach taken when creating content for the then newly invented Microsoft HoloLens. As an early pioneer in designing 3D interfaces decades ago, Pell was uniquely qualified to share his hard-won knowledge and unique insights with readers. In the same way, as one of the creators of Adobe Acrobat, he is the right person to shed some light on what’s coming next for us in the area of information design, consumption, and authoring.
This book predicts that in the near future, the data we regularly consume will feel like it’s alive and aware, powered by a type of Artificial Intelligence that understands our routines, location, time of day, schedule, and even our emotions, to automatically filter how it is presented to us. New devices, together with precise geolocation and latency-free cloud computing, will be able to place information exactly where and when we need it, without us having to take any explicit action to make it happen. Pell believes this unique, personalized combination of Spatial Computing and Artificial Intelligence will enable our most common forms of communication to come to life right before our eyes.
-- Charlie Fink, Forbes Columnist, Author, Futurist
