The Onlife Initiative - Concept Reengineering: rethinking public spaces in
the digital transition The deployment of ICTs and their uptake by society
affects radically the human condition by modifying our relationships to
ourselves, to others and to the world around us. The increasing
pervasiveness of ICTs upsets established reference frameworks and blurs the
boundaries between real and virtual, shifting the primacy from entities to
connections & information.
Concept reengineering puts us in the best position to reflect meaningfully
on what is happening to us, and thereby helps us envision the future in
positive terms. Fear of the new or rejection of the unknown can be overcome
by better understanding of the concepts we are dealing with. The "Onlife
initiative" aims to help us better understand these concepts.

Enjoy!
