Information R/evolution 

Created by Michael Wesch, professor of Cultural Anthropology at Kansas State University, this video explores the changes in the way we find, store, create, critique, and share information. This video was created as a conversation starter, and works especially well when brainstorming with people about the near future and the skills needed in order to harness, evaluate, and create information effectively.
