It's About (Jason Ohler at ASTE 2012)
It's about. It answers the question, What matters?
It's About (tiny.cc/itsabout) is a series of digital art compositions pieces that explore the world of living digitally ... and what it's about.
This particular piece is the result of a new program started by the Alaska Society for Technology in Education (ASTE): The Conference Artist in Residence. For its 2012 conference, ASTE hired two media artists, Craig R Harris and Jason Ohler, to create a piece of multimedia artwork that was inspired by the conference itself. With help from photographer Candy Kuehn and two student assistants, James Fleharty and Adam Zamudio, the team interviewed conference attendants, took photos, shot video, and in general used the conference to inform the creation of the media piece presented here. The questions this piece seeks to answer are: What is the future of technology and learning? What issues does education need to address to remain relevant to digitally adept K12 students?
From the input we gathered, Jason wrote a script, Craig Harris composed the music, Candy Kuehn created digital photo illustrations; Randy and Adam prepared digital assets, including video and photos. We turned to the Web for the digital material we needed to further illustrate our points.
The piece was created in 3 days, and shown at the conference on a non-published basis. Post-production consisted largely of obtaining permissions to use other people's material, which in turn changed what we used in the final piece to a small extent. The citation and permission process can be found at jasonOhler.com/itsabout.
It's about. It's about the past, now, the future and what we can imagine.

The 50 Let Pobedy is 159 meters long (524 ft) and weighs 23,439 metric tons (25,837 tons). That's peanuts next to the massive tankers and container ships it clears a path for, but it makes it the largest icebreaker in the world.
