>> Delft University of Technology *About the talk:*
>>
>> We aim for a more virtuous society by transforming media and money. Our
>> ideology-driven methodology is replacing speculation, volatility and greed
>> with cooperation, stability and rewarding of goodness. Our first goal is
>> creating a smartphone-based infrastructure which is capable of withstanding
>> all known government attacks on media freedom and privacy. Second, based on
>> this self-organizing infrastructure we are designing our bank-of-bits,
>> aiming to alter the essence of capitalism (rich get richer) by abolishing
>> compound interest rates and facilitation safe zero-cost money transfers
>> plus lending.
>>
>> During this talk the first prototype will be unveiled of our
>> attack-resilient QMedia app for microblogging. QMedia goal for future
>> versions is news dissemination from a single smartphone to an audience of
>> millions in the form of microblogging, enriched with pictures and streaming
>> video which is guarded against all known forms of government censorship
>> such as cyberspace sabotage, digital eavesdropping, infiltration, fraud,
>> Internet kill switches and especially lawyer-based attacks. We hope new
>> Open Source developers will join our Internet-deployed project and help
>> realize our QMedia goal for the end of 2012: building next-generation
>> anonymity technology, founded on social networking, traffic hiding and a
>> global reputation system.
>>
>> For over a decade Delft University of Technology has been measuring and
>> building P2P systems, aided by millions of Euros in research funding from
>> the European Union and Dutch government. We are continuously improving our
>> own attack-resilient sharing software called Tribler. With one million
>> downloads, Tribler provides us with vital behavioral feedback of novel
>> algorithms. Tribler is not dependent and completely decoupled from
>> unreliable servers such as DNS servers, web servers, swarm trackers and
>> access portals. Using fully self-organising P2P technology we aim to create
>> an overlay which is unbreakable: the only way to take it down is to take
>> the Internet down.
>>
>> We dream of transforming media and money with five innovations we have
>> developed within Tribler:
>>
>>    1. The Libswift P2P engine,
>>    2. Dispersy elastic database,
>>    3. Bartercast reputation system,
>>    4. bandwidth-as-a-currency resource based cybercurrency, and
>>    5. the Skynet V0.1 self-organizing and self-learning Artificial
>>    Intelligence engine (joined work University of Szeged) with a very limited
>>    form of self-awareness.

>>
>>  Dr. ir. J.A. Pouwelse is an assistant professor at Delft University of
>> Technology, specialized in Peer-to-Peer file sharing. He leads the P2P
>> research team of a dozen people which created the Tribler P2P system. The
>> Tribler group is the largest experimental research group in the field of
>> P2P and responsible for several world-first innovations. With over one
>> million downloads Tribler serves as a living laboratory and proving ground
>> for next-generation P2P technology. Dr. Pouwelse is scientific director of
>> P2P-Next and technical leader of QLective, EU projects with a combined
>> research budget of 26 million Euro. Previously Dr. Pouwelse delivered a
>> statement for the FTC in Washington, was a visiting scientist at MIT, and
>> spent several summers at Harvard to study mechanisms for cooperation.
