WELCOME TO SIC 2014!
This year we are spotlighting Makers. Now more than ever,
creative thinkers have easier access to data and tools and
they’re changing the industry in big ways, at a faster pace.
These digital artisans bring a DIY spirit to work with them
every day. Their creative thinking pushes us to shift the way
we work and play — and there’s much for all of us to learn
and take from their experiences.
This year’s agenda is filled with many inspiring people who
have big stories to tell and I can’t wait to hear them speak
— they are truly Makers. Alongside these big thinkers are
those individuals and teams who aren’t necessarily aiming
to change the world, but are nonetheless changing how the
world works. They too are innovators, willing to experiment
boldly enough to reinvent tools and techniques that shift
the ways we work and play. They make change, make
technology, make noise, even make history and more. Their
hands-on experience will inspire all of us to innovate — and
maybe even become Makers ourselves!
I hope you leave SIC 2014 ready to innovate and
experiment, knowing that we’re all capable of being Makers.
On behalf of the SIC://Team and our Board of Advisors,
thank you for coming.

COME CHAT
@ BOOTH 307
Keynote with Jeremiah Owyang
Crowd Companies Chief Catalyst & Founder
From AirBnb, TaskRabbit, Uber, to Lyft, the sharing economy is on the rise.
Furthermore, crowdfunding and the maker movement is enabling people to
create goods—rather than buy them.
Organizations can benefit from this maker movement by tapping into the
crowd by enabling them to better utilize their own resources, and to create
new business opportunities that reduce capital expenditures and operating
costs. This presentation will share three ways corporations must shift their
business to adapt to the collaborative economy.

The Urban Legend of
Free Social Marketing
Session with Jordan Kretchmer
Livefyre Founder & CEO
Internet TV will empower filmmakers and content producers to break from
traditional television formats. In the multi-screen world, a television episode
length will be dictated by the viewing audience, not pre-programmed
scheduling. Premium content will be as long or as short as a viewer decides.
What the digital generations determine are the prime time shows of the
future will be unrecognizable to the television schedules our parents
watched in the past.
Many brands have spent the past decade building engaged communities
on social networks, but Facebook’s recent and continued algorithm changes
have highlighted a serious flaw in that strategy: social networks aren’t
owned properties — they’re leased. This wake-up call is leading many
marketers to focus more of their attention back to their owned properties,
apps, and events, where they can create compelling experiences for their
audiences without giving up control.

Phones and tablets are rapidly replacing desktops as our personal
computers. Over 20% of digital content consumption now happens on our
mobile devices while we move from place to place. And yet, with very few
exceptions, our real-world location does not inform mobile content. As new
location-based technologies emerge, however, creators will soon tell stories

In today’s data-driven world, it’s not often that you hear less is more.

how to understand that data, and tactics for sharing those insights to
stakeholders.

David Shim Placed Founder & CEO
Connecting in-store activity to online campaigns is
priceless and until recently, not an easy task even for
the most tech-savvy businesses. By putting location in
context, we can measure user interaction in physical
stores and use data to measure the impact of how digital campaigns —
both desktop and mobile — affect offline behavior. In this session, Lauren
and David will discuss this approach and how it translated into significant
results.

FARMSTR FRUIT PICK UP
Farmstr is an online marketplace where sustainable farmers, fishers
and ranchers sell directly to local customers. With Farmstr, sellers
earn higher margins and customers get access to high quality local
food for [often] less than it costs at the store. Small local producers
can sell what they have, when they have it, and buyers have control
to buy what they want, when they want, from whom they want.
If you were smart enough to invest early by ordering Farmstr goods
before the conference, you can pick it up from the Farmstr truck at
the SIC after party. #farmfooddelivered
The Farmstr truck will be parked
in front of Melrose Market Studios

#MOVEWITHMOBILE
Advertising that moves with people
Cey Adams, a New York City native, emerged from the downtown
graffiti movement to exhibit alongside fellow artists Jean-Michel
Basquiat and Keith Haring. As the Creative Director of hip hop mogul
Russell Simmons’ Def Jam Recordings, he created visual identities,
album covers, logos, and advertising campaigns for Run DMC,
Beastie Boys, LL Cool J, Public Enemy, Notorious B.I.G., and Jay-Z.
This show explores the relationship between transformation and
discovery. His practice involves dismantling various imagery and
paper elements to build multiple layers of color, texture, shadow, and
light. Cey draws inspiration from 60’s pop art, sign painting, comic
books, and popular culture.

ORIGIN & DESTINATION
BY WINTR
Seattle is a city in motion, experiencing economic growth as well
as the subsequent benefits and pitfalls. One of the most visible
issues is traffic and mobility in and around the city. The diverse and
dynamic neighborhoods offer up a host of businesses, events and
attractions. To continue to inspire the creative spirit and greater
community and culture of Seattle, individuals and ideas need to be
able to efficiently navigate from origin to destination.
WINTR’s installation Origin & Destination is an expression of
distance between two zip-codes in the Seattle area, mode of
transportation and the variable duration based on real-time traffic
data. Translating visible issues into a stylistic abstraction of data is
an effort to motivate creative solutions to these issues and further
Seattle as a city, well designed, in motion.
