Kate Stone: DJ decks made of... paper

Prevoditelj: Neda Vrkic Recezent: Sanda L

I love paper, and I love technology,

Volim papir i volim tehnologiju,

and what I do is I make paper interactive.

i ono što radim je da činim papir interaktivnim.

And that's what I say when people ask me what I do,

I to kažem kada me ljudi pitaju što radim,

but it really confuses most people,

ali to zapravo zbunjuje većinu ljudi,

so really, the best way for me to convey it

pa zapravo, najbolji način da to provedem

is to take the technology and be creative

je da se uhvatim tehnologije, budem kreativna

and create experiences.

i stvorim iskustva.

So I tried to think what I could use for here,

Tako sam pokušala razmišljati što bih ovdje mogla iskoristiti,

and a couple of weeks ago I had a crazy idea

i prije par tjedana sam imala ludu ideju

that I wanted to print two DJ decks

da želim isprintati dva DJ pulta

and to try and mix some music.

i isprobati i miksati neku glazbu.

And I'm going to try and show that at the end,

I pokušat ću i pokazati to na kraju,

and the suspense will be as much mine if it works.

i neizvjesnost će biti i moja ako to djeluje.

And I'm not a DJ, and I'm not a musician,

I nisam DJ, nisam ni glazbenica

so I'm a little bit scared of that.

pa se toga pomalo bojim.

So I think, I found the best way to describe my journey

Pa mislim, pronašla sam da je najbolji način da opišem svoje putovanje

is just to mention a few little things

da samo spomenem nekoliko sitnica

that have happened to me throughout my life.

koje su mi se dogodile tijekom mog života.

There's three particular things that I've done,

Postoje tri posebne stvari koje sam napravila

and I'll just describe those first,

i samo ću ih prvo opisati,

and then talk about some of my work.

a onda govoriti o nekim mojim radovima.

So when I was a kid, I was obsessed with wires,

Pa, kad sam bila dijete, bila sam opsjednuta žicama

and I used to thread them under my carpet

i nizala bih ih ispod svog tepiha

and thread them behind the walls

i iza zidova

and have little switches and little speakers,

i imala bih male prekidače i male zvučnike,

and I wanted to make my bedroom be interactive

htjela sam učiniti svoju sobu interaktivnom,

but kind of all hidden away.

ali sve nekako skriveno.

And I was also really interested in wireless as well.

I bila sam stvarno zainteresirana i za bežičnost.

So I bought one of those little kits that you could get

Pa sam kupila jedan od onih malih setova kojim si mogao

to make a radio transmitter,

napraviti radio odašiljač,

and I got an old book and I carved out the inside

uzela sam staru knjigu, izrezala unutrašnjost,

and I hid it inside there,

sakrila sam ga unutra,

and then I placed it next to my dad

onda sam je stavila pored oca

and snuck back to my bedroom and tuned in on the radio

i odšuljala se nazad u svoju spavaću sobu i podesila radio

so I could eavesdrop.

da bih mogla prisluškivati.

I was not at all interested in what he was saying.

Nije me nimalo zanimalo što on govori.

It's more that I just liked the idea

Više mi se sviđala sama ideja

of an everyday object

da svakodnevni predmet

having something inside

ima nešto unutra

and doing something different.

i radi nešto drugačije.

Several year later,

Nekoliko godina kasnije,

I managed to successfully fail all of my exams

uspjela sam uspješno pasti sve svoje ispite

and didn't really leave school with much to show for at all,

i napuštajući školu nisam se imala baš čime pohvaliti,

and my parents, maybe as a reward,

a moji roditelji, možda kao nagradu,

bought me what turned out to be

kupili su mi, za što se ispostavilo,

a one-way ticket to Australia,

jednosmjernu kartu za Australiju,

and I came back home about four years later.

i vratila sam se kući četiri godine kasnije.

I ended up on a farm in the middle of nowhere.

Završila sam na farmi usred ničega.

It was in far western New South Wales.

Bilo je to na krajnje zapadnom New South Walesu.

And this farm was 120,000 acres.

I ta farma je imala 120,000 hektara.

There were 22,000 sheep,

Bilo je 22,000 ovaca

and it was about 40 degrees,

i bilo je oko 40 stupnjeva,

or 100 or so Fahrenheit.

ili 100 ili više Fahrenheita.

And on this farm there was the farmer, his wife,

I na toj farmi tamo bio je poljoprivrednik, njegova žena

and there was the four-year-old daughter.

i bila je četverogodišnja kći.

And they kind of took me into the farm

I nekako su me uzeli na farmu

and showed me what it was like to live and work.

i pokazali mi kako je to živjeti i raditi.

Obviously, one of the most important things was the sheep,

Očito, jedna od najvažnijh stvari su bile ovce

and so my job was, well, pretty much to do everything,

i tako je moj posao bio raditi gotovo sve,

but it was about bringing the sheep back to the homestead.

ali radilo se o dovođenju ovaca nazad na farmu.

And we'd do that by building fences,

I to bismo radili pravljenjem ograda,

using motorbikes and horses,

koristeći motocikle i konje

and the sheep would make their way all the way back

i ovce bi tim putem krenule nazad

to the shearing shed for the different seasons.

do zgrade za ovce za različita godišnja doba.

And what I learned was,

I što sam naučila je,

although at the time, like everyone else,

iako sam u to vrijeme, kao svi drugi,

I thought sheep were pretty stupid

mislila da su ovce prilično glupe

because they didn't do what we wanted them to do,

jer nisu radile što smo htjeli da rade,

what I realize now, probably only just in the last few weeks

što sad shvaćam, vjerojatno u samo posljednjih nekoliko tjedana

looking back, is the sheep weren't stupid at all.

gledajući unatrag, da ovce uopće nisu bile glupe.

We'd put them in an environment where they didn't want to be,

Stavili bismo ih u okoliš u kojem nisu htjele biti

and they didn't want to do what we wanted them to do.

i nisu htjele raditi što smo mi htjeli da rade.

So the challenge was to try and get them

Dakle, izazov je bio pokušati i natjerati ih

to do what we wanted them to do

da naprave što mi želimo da naprave

by listening to the weather, the lay of the land,

slušajući vrijeme, odlike zemljišta

and creating things that would let the sheep flow

i stvarajući stvari koje bi dopustile ovcama da se kreću

and go where we wanted them to go.

i idu gdje mi želimo da idu.

Another bunch of years later,

Još nekoliko godina kasnije,

I ended up at Cambridge University

završila sam na Sveučilištu Cambridge

at the Cavendish Laboratory in the U.K.

u laboratoriju Cavendish u Ujedinjenom Kraljevstvu

doing a Ph.D. in physics.

radeći doktorat iz fizike.

My Ph.D. was to move electrons around, one at a time.

Moj doktorat je bio pomicati elektrone uokolo, jedan po jedan.

And I realize — again, it's kind of these realizations

I shvaćam - opet, to je jedna od tih spoznaja

looking back as to what I did —

osvrćući se prema onome što sam učinila -

I realize now that it was pretty much the same

sad shvaćam da je prilično isto

as moving sheep around.

kao pokretanje ovaca uokolo.

It really is.

Stvarno jest.

It's just you do it by changing an environment.

Samo što to radite promjenom okruženja.

And that's kind of been a big lesson to me,

I to mi je nekako bila velika lekcija,

that you can't act on any object.

da ne možete djelovati na bilo koji objekt.

You change its environment, and the object will flow.

Promijenite njegovo okruženje i objekt će teći.

So we made it very small,

Pa smo ga dosta smanjili

so things were about 30 nanometers in size;

i stvari su bile oko 30 nanometara u veličini;

making it very cold, so at liquid helium temperatures;

čineći ga dosta hladnim, na temperaturama tekućeg helija;

and changing environment by changing the voltage,

i mijenjajući okolinu mijenjanjem napona,

and the electrons could make flow around a loop

elektroni su mogli napraviti protok oko petlje

one at a time, on and off, a little memory node.

jedan po jedan, naizmjenično, mali čvor memorije.

And I wanted to go one step further,

I htjela sam otići korak dalje,

and I wanted to move one electron on

htjela sam pokrenuti jedan elektron

and one electron off.

i jedan zaustaviti.

And I was told that I wouldn't be able to do this,

Rečeno mi je da to neću moći učiniti,

which, you know, as we've heard from other people,

što, kao što znate, kad čujete od drugih ljudi,

that's the thing that makes you do it.

to je stvar koja vas natjera da to učinite.

And I was determined, and I managed to show that I could do that.

Bila sam odlučna i uspjela sam pokazati da mogu to učiniti.

And a lot of that learning, I think,

I dosta tog učenja, mislim,

came from being on that farm,

došlo je od boravka na toj farmi,

because when I was working on the farm,

jer kad sam radila na toj farmi,

we'd have to use what was around us,

morali smo koristiti ono što je bilo oko nas,

we'd have to use the environment,

morali smo koristiti okolinu

and there was no such thing

i nije postojala takva stvar

as something can't be done,

da se nešto ne može učiniti,

because you're in an environment where,

jer ste u okolini gdje,

if you can't do what you need to do,

ako ne možete učiniti što trebate učiniti,

you can die, and, you know,

možete umrijeti, i znate,

I had seen that sort of thing happen.

vidjela sam da se takve stvari događaju.

So now my obsession is printing,

Dakle, sada je moja opsesija tiskanje

and I'm really fascinated by the idea

i stvarno sam fascinirana idejom

of using conventional printing processes,

upotrebe konvencionalnih procesa ispisa

so the types of print that are used to create

pa tako i vrsta ispisa koji se koriste za stvaranje

many of the things around us

mnogih stvari oko nas

to make paper and card interactive.

da učine papir i kartice interaktivnima.

When I spoke to some printers when I started doing this

Kad sam počela ovo raditi, razgovarala sam s nekim tiskarima

and told them what I wanted to do,

i rekla im što želim učiniti,

which was to print conductive inks onto paper,

a to je tiskanje provodjive tinte na papir,

they told me it couldn't be done,

rekli su mi da to nije izvedivo,

again, that kind of favorite thing.

opet, ona najdraža stvar.

So I got about 10 credit cards and loans

Stoga sam uzela oko 10 kreditnih kartica, zadužila se,

and got myself very close to bankruptcy, really,

skoro se dovela do bankrota

and bought myself this huge printing press,

i kupila sam si ovu ogromnu tiskarsku prešu,

which I had no idea how to use at all.

za koju nisam imala pojma kako je uopće koristiti.

It was about five meters long,

Bila je dugačka oko pet metara,

and I covered myself and the floor with ink

prekrila sam sebe i pod tintom

and made a massive mess, but I learned to print.

i napravila ogroman nered, ali naučila sam tiskati.

And then I took it back to the printers and showed them what I've done,

I onda sam to odnijela nazad tiskarima i pokazala im što sam učinila,

and they were like, "Of course you can do that.

a oni su na to rekli, "Naravno da to možete učiniti.

Zašto niste prvo došli ovdje?"

Why didn't you come here in the first place?"

That's always the case.

To je uvijek tako.

So what we do is we take conventional printing presses,

Dakle, ono što radimo je da uzmemo konvencionalne tiskarske preše

we make conductive inks,

izradimo provodljive tinte,

and run those through a press, and basically

pokrenemo ih kroz prešu, i u osnovi

just letting hundreds of thousands of electrons flow

samo pustimo stotine tisuća elektrona da se kreću

through pieces of paper

kroz komade papira

so we can make that paper interactive.

tako da taj papir možemo napraviti interaktivnim.

And it's pretty simple, really.

I prilično je jednostavno, zaista.

It's just a collection of things that have been done before,

To je samo zbirka stvari koje su već prije napravljene,

but bringing them together in a different way.

ali ih spajamo na drugačiji način.

So we have a piece of paper with conductive ink on,

Dakle, imamo komad papira s provodljivom tintom,

and then add onto that a small circuit board with a couple of chips,

na to još dodamo pločicu sklopa s nekoliko čipova,

one to run some capacitive touch software,

jednu za pokretanje nekog kapacitivnog softvera na dodir,

so we know where we've touched it,

da znamo gdje smo ga dotakli,

and the other to run, quite often,

i drugi da pokrenemo, prilično često,

some wireless software so the piece of paper can connect.

neki bežični softver da se komad papira može spojiti.

So I'll just describe a couple of things that we've created.

Pa ću opisati par stvari koje smo stvorili.

There's lots of different things we've created.

Ima puno različitih stvari koje smo stvorili.

Ovo je jedna od njih jer volim tortu.

This is one of them, because I love cake.

And this one, it's a large poster,

I ova, to je veliki plakat,

and you touch it and it has a little speaker behind it,

dodirnete ga i iza ima mali zvučnik,

and the poster talks to you when you touch it

poster vam govori kad ga dotaknete,

and asks you a series of questions,

pita vas niz pitanja

and it works out your perfect cake.

i izradi vašu najdražu tortu.

But it doesn't tell you the cake there and then.

Ali vam ne kaže tortu tamo i tada.

It uploads a picture,

Postavlja sliku

and the reason why it chose that cake for you,

i razlog zašto je odabrao tu tortu za vas

to our Facebook page and to Twitter.

na našu Facebook stranicu i Twitter.

So we're trying to create that connection

Pa pokušavamo stvoriti tu vezu

between the physical and the digital,

između fizičkog i digitalnog,

but have it not looking on a screen,

ali da ne izgleda kao ekran,

and just looking like a regular poster.

da samo izgleda kao običan plakat.

We've worked with a bunch of universities on a project

Radili smo s nizom sveučilišta na projektu,

looking at interactive newsprint.

gledajući interaktivni novinski papir.

So for example, we've created a newspaper,

Tako smo, na primjer, stvorili novine,

a regular newspaper.

obične novine.

You can wear a pair of headphones that are connected to it wirelessly,

Možete nositi par slušalica koje su bežično povezane na njih

and when you touch it, you can hear the music

i kad ih dodirnete, možete čuti glazbu,

that's described on the top, which is something you can't read.

što je opisano na vrhu, što je nešto što ne možete pročitati.

You can hear a press conference

Možete čuti konferenciju za novinare

as well as reading what the editor has determined

kao i čitati što je urednik odredio

that press conference was about.

za sadržaj tiskovne konferencije.

And you can press a Facebook "like" button

I možete odabrati "Sviđa mi se" na Facebooku

or you can vote on something as well.

ili možete i glasati za nešto.

Something else that we created,

Nešto drugo što smo stvorili,

and this was an idea that I had a couple of years ago,

to je bila ideja koju sam imala prije nekoliko godina,

and so we've done a project on this.

napravili smo projekt na tome.

It was for funding from the government

Bilo je to za financiranje od strane vlade

for user-centered design for energy-efficient buildings,

za dizajn usmjeren korisniku za energetski učinkovite zgrade,

difficult to say, and something I had no idea what it was

teško za reći i nešto što pojma nisam imala što je

when I went into the workshop, but quickly learned.

kad sam ušla u radionicu, ali sam brzo naučila.

And we wanted to try and encourage people

I htjeli smo pokušati potaknuti ljude

to use energy better.

da bolje iskoriste energiju.

And I really liked the idea that, instead of looking at dials

I stvarno mi se sviđala ideja da, umjesto gledanja na brojčanike

and reading things to say --

i čitanja stvari --

looking at your energy usage,

gledajući svoju potrošnju energije,

I wanted to create a poster that was wirelessly connected

htjela sam stvoriti plakat koji je bežično povezan

and had color-changing inks on it,

i ima na sebi tinte koje mijenjaju boju,

and so if your energy usage was trending better,

i ako vaše korištenje energije postaje bolje,

than the leaves would appear and the rabbits would appear

tada bi se pojavili listovi i zečevi

and all would be good.

i sve bi bilo dobro.

And if it wasn't, then there'd be graffiti

A ako nije, tada bi bilo grafita

and the leaves would fall off the trees.

i lišće bi padalo s drveća.

So it was trying to make you look after something

Pa vas pokušava natjerati da pazite na nešto

in your immediate environment,

u vašoj neposrednoj okolini,

which you don't want to see not looking so good,

što ne želite vidjeti da ne izgleda tako dobro,

rather than expecting people to do things

radije nego da očekujete od ljudi da rade nešto

in the local environment because of the effect

u lokalnom okruženju zbog učinka

that it has a long way off.

koji ima dug put.

And I think, kind of like going back to the farm,

I mislim, nekako kao da idem natrag na farmu,

it's about how to let people do what you want them to do

radi se o tome kako dopustiti ljudima da rade ono što želite da rade,

rather than making people do what you want them to do.

radije nego prisiljavati ljude da rade ono što želite da rade.

Okay.

U redu.

So this is the bit I'm really scared of.

Dakle, ovog dijela se jako bojim.

So a couple of things I've created are,

Dakle, stvorila sam nekoliko stvari,

there's a poster over here

ovdje je poster

that you can play drums on.

na kojem možete svirati bubnjeve.

And I am not a musician. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

I nisam glazbenica. Činilo se dobrom idejom u to vrijeme.

If anyone wants to try and play drums, then they can.

Ako netko želi probati svirati bubnjeve, može.

I'll just describe how this works.

Samo ću opisati kako to radi.

This poster is wirelessly connected to my cell phone,

Ovaj plakat je bežično spojen na moj mobitel

and when you touch it, it connects to the app.

i kad ga dodirnete, povezuje se s aplikacijom.

(Drums)

(Bubnjevi)

And it has really good response time.

I ima zaista dobro vrijeme odgovora.

It's using Bluetooth 4, so it's pretty instantaneous.

Koristi Bluetooth 4, dakle, prilično je trenutan.

Okay. Thanks.

U redu. Hvala.

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

And there's a couple of other things.

I tu je još par stvari.

So this one is like a sound board,

Dakle, ovo je poput zvučne ploče,

so you can touch it, and I just love these horrible noises.

možete je dodirnuti i stvarno volim ove grozne zvukove.

(Sirens, explosions, breaking glass)

(Sirene, eksplozije, razbijanje stakla)

Okay, and this is a D.J. turntable.

U redu, a ovo je DJ platforma.

So it's wirelessly linked to my iPad,

I bežično je povezana s mojim iPadom,

and this is a software that's running on the iPad.

a ovo je softver koji se pokreće na iPadu.

Oh, yes. I just love doing that.

Oh, da. Jednostavno obožavam to raditi.

I'm not a D.J., though, but I just always wanted to do that.

Nisam DJ, doduše, ali sam oduvijek to htjela napraviti.

(Scratching)

(Grebanje)

So I have a crossfader, and I have the two decks.

Pa imam miksetu i dva pulta.

So I've made some new technology,

I napravila sam nešto nove tehnologije

and I love things being creative,

i volim kad su stvari kreativne,

and I love working with creative people.

volim raditi s kreativnim ljudima.

So my 15-year-old niece, she's amazing,

Dakle, moja 15-godišnja nećakinja, nevjerovatna je,

and she's called Charlotte,

zove se Charlotte,

and I asked her to record something,

zamolila sam je da nešto snimi

and I worked with a friend called Elliot

i radila sam s prijateljem Elliotom

to put some beats together.

da složimo nekoliko taktova.

So this is my niece, Charlotte.

Dakle, ovo je moja nećakinja, Charlotte.

(Music)

(Glazba)

Yay!

Jej!

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

So that's pretty much what I do.

Dakle, to je uglavnom to što ja radim.

I just love bringing technology together,

Volim spajati tehnologiju,

having a lot of fun, being creative.

zabavljati se, biti kreativna.

But it's not about the technology.

Ali ne radi se o tehnologiji.

It's just about, I want to create some great experiences.

Samo se radi o tome da želim stvoriti sjajna iskustva.

So thank you very much.

I puno vam hvala.

(Applause)

(Pljesak)
