Jaron Lanier Quotes

If you're old enough to have a job and to have a life, you use Facebook exactly as advertised, you look up old friends Picture Quote #1

In a more incremental world, attributions and rewards will still be contested, no doubt, but particular outcomes will no longer make or break lives Picture Quote #1

Advertisers and marketers should be looking to bring new experiences to different parts of the brain. It's a more profound idea than just dropping a billboard into a video game Picture Quote #1

What does it mean to not be alone? I've approached that question through music, technology, writing and other means Picture Quote #1

Web 2. 0 ideas have a chirpy, cheerful rhetoric to them, but I think they consistently express a profound pessimism about humans, human nature and the human future Picture Quote #1

We're losing track of the vastness of the potential for computer science. We really have to revive the beautiful intellectual joy of it, as opposed to the business potential Picture Quote #1

Style used to be an interaction between the human soul and tools that were limiting. In the digital era, it will have to come from the soul alone Picture Quote #1

Musicians and journalists are the canaries in the coalmine, but, eventually, as computers get more and more powerful, it will kill off all middle class professions Picture Quote #1

If we allow our self congratulatory adoration of technology to distract us from our own contact with each other, then somehow the original agenda has been lost Picture Quote #1

I think complexity is mostly sort of crummy stuff that is there because it's too expensive to change the interface Picture Quote #1

I mean, you can't have advertising be the only official business of the information economy if the information economy is going to take over Picture Quote #1

I feel drawn to experiment with ways that technology can interact with notions of intimacy, because so much of technology is done in a way that's very cold and has such an opposite effect Picture Quote #1

Every time we give a musician the advice to give away the music and sell the T-shirt, we're saying, 'Don't make your living in this more elevated way. Instead, reverse this social progress, and choose a more physical way to make a living.' We're sending them to peasanthood, very much like the Maoists have Picture Quote #1

I do real paintings, you know. I’m a little messy in the studio, so I’m a bit of a danger. But I just adore it Picture Quote #1

Advertising is the edge of what people know how to do and of human experience and it explains the latest ways progress has changed us to ourselves Picture Quote #1

I’m astonished at how readily a great many people I know, young people, have accepted a reduced economic prospect and limited freedoms in any substantial sense, and basically traded them for being able to screw around online Picture Quote #1

Mobs and dictators were made for each other, and when mobs appear, dictators will soon flourish Picture Quote #1

When you have a global mush, people lose their identity, they become pseudonyms, they have no investment and no consequence in what they do Picture Quote #1

The wisdom of crowds works when the crowd is choosing the price of an ox, when there's a single numeric average. But if it's a design or something that matters, the decision is made by committee, and that's crap. You want people and groups who are able to think thoughts before they share Picture Quote #1

I'd much rather see a world where, when you make some quirky comment on a blog or news story or you upload a video clip, instead of just a moment of fame for your pseudonym, you'll get 50 bucks. The first time that happens, you'll realise that you're a full class citizen. You have the potential to make money from the system Picture Quote #1

I view advertising as being this romanticizing element that helps us appreciate, understand and enjoy how remarkable it is that we've been able to do so much, and learn so much. I view it as really vital, even though sometimes it can be really annoying Picture Quote #1

Human beings either function as individuals or as members of a pack. There's a switch inside us, deep in our spirit, that you can turn one way or the other. It's almost always the case that our worst behaviour comes out when we're switched to the mob setting. The problem with a lot of software designs is that they switch us to that setting Picture Quote #1

Facebook says, 'privacy is theft,' because they're selling your lack of privacy to the advertisers who might show up one day Picture Quote #1

I think most of the dramatic new ideas come from little companies that then grow big Picture Quote #1

Advertisers are not thinking radically enough - they look for technology to lead instead of trying the neuroscience approach and thinking about what parts of the brain haven't been activated before. These new experiences bring new capabilities to the brain Picture Quote #1

People try to treat technology as an object, and it can't be. It can only be a channel Picture Quote #1

My parents were kind of like me in that they had tons and tons of weird, amazing stuff Picture Quote #1

My dad has sometimes felt that I grew up a little lacking in sufficient eccentricity - in the sense that I'm willing to live as an adult in a house with walls that are parallel to each other, that sort of thing Picture Quote #1

Anonymous blog comments, vapid video pranks and lightweight mash ups may seem trivial and harmless, but as a whole, this widespread practice of fragmentary, impersonal communication has demeaned personal interaction Picture Quote #1

A market economy cannot thrive absent the well being of average people, even in a gilded age Picture Quote #1
