23 VR – the Ultimate UI “I think we are talking about stories where you are the character and the stories are happening to you.” -Chris Milk, videographer and CEO of Within

24 Definitions Augmented Reality Virtual Reality

25 VR - Status Report Full sensory experience Direct neural integration

Human computer interaction Browsers User tasks User expectations Access modes Adoption rates

27 VR + AI + OPAC Searching becomes a dialogue New data visualizations Time-space distortions Serendipity as library’s killer app Social aspects become central

28 ILS Components Metadata OPAC Transactions

29 Blockchain = Transactions

30 Blockchain = Transactions
Bitcoin Other Cryptocurrencies Contracts Escrow Accounts Any P2P transaction

31 Key Benefits “Private” No middleman Distributed verification
Micro-transaction-friendly Programmable

32 Blockchain = Transactions
Books are… Published Reviewed Purchased Made available Loaned Returned

33 IPFS – A Blockchian Case Study
Web + Blockchain + Git + BitTorrent

34 Inter-planetary File System (IPFS)
“IPFS is a distributed file system that seeks to connect all computing devices with the same system of files… …it could complement or replace HTTP… ...It sounds crazy. It is crazy.” -IPFS README

35 Back to the Future Paul Baran, 1964: “On Distributed Communications Networks”

36 IPFS Benefits Potentially more private Decentralized P2P distribution
Back-ups, versioning built-in Faster Cheaper

37 Chains Required Publisher Repository Copyright-clearing Authority data
Loaner Linked Data node Distributor Reviewer
