Do you get the total irony of fake secrecy? Look here. "In 2009 a group of 42 researchers, educators, and entrepreneurs met together at the invitation of Union Square Ventures, a venture capital firm, to discuss how the Web could transform education. A major theme of the daylong discussion, which took place under the theme 'Hacking Education,' was 'unbundling,' the process through which online distribution of digital media and information breaks apart and erodes existing industries. At the center of 'unbundling' are new technologically-enabled relationships that democratize access to the means of production and collectively create plenty where scarcity once existed." Via D'Arcy Norman.
