  • Let's Face It: The Future Is Now.

    We live in a Hybrid Analog Digital Society, and we must stop ignoring it or pretending that technology is not affecting us.

    The line between the physical and virtual worlds has become a figment of our imagination.

    On it, we are continually performing a dangerous balancing act juggling convenience, privacy, freedom, security, technology, society, culture, and even the future of humanity.

    There is no better place than here, and no better time than now, to muse on our relationship with technology, and how to redefine what society means in this new age.

  • Audio Signals Podcast Is Repositioning Its Antennas!

    Formerly hosted by both of ITSPmagazine's Co-Founders Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin as a way to venture away from The Intersection Of Technology, Cybersecurity, and Society and discover other stories worth to be told, Marco is now hosting the show and decided to focus not just on the stories, but on the storytellers.

    A few words from the host:

    "I am Marco Ciappelli, the host of the Audio Signal podcast. I am excited to announce a new direction for our show: from now on, we will focus on storytelling in all its diverse forms.

    Storytelling is at the core of our human societal experience. It is how we transmit knowledge, share experiences, and communicate our values. Stories are more than just narratives - they are bridges that connect us, shaping our worldview and identity. They are the threads that weave together the fabric of our collective consciousness, revealing the complexity and richness of the human condition.

    In our modern, hybrid analog-digital society, the art of storytelling holds even greater importance. As technology brings us closer together, stories have the power to break down barriers, foster understanding, and build a sense of shared human experience in an increasingly interconnected world.

    Whether you are authors, screenwriters, filmmakers, directors, poets, playwrights, oral storytellers, songwriters, musicians, journalists, documentarians, comedians, graphic novelists, comic book writers, podcasters, video game designers, dancers, choreographers, etc. - each one of you contributes to this grand tapestry of human experience. Through your chosen medium, you articulate narratives that provoke thought, inspire, entertain, and illuminate the myriad corners of our existence.

    So, in recognizing this, I am repositioning our antennas and shifting our Podcast to spotlight the fantastic storytelling universe, focusing on the storytellers themselves.

    I invite you to join me on this journey to share your passion, craft, and the stories that truly make us human. Let's continue the timeless tradition of storytelling together in this new, evolving digital era.

    If you would like to be on the show, please submit a request, and hopefully, you will be on the show to share your narratives with our audience!

    Over now!

 

 
  • Check out my latest personal storytelling project: a creative collaboration with my mom, who at the age of 76 found her passion in writing magical and enchanting short stories for children. I provide assistance in refining concepts, some editing, and support for all it takes to use Gen AI to translate the stories into multiple languages, for natural language reading, and design. Quite amazingly, it has become a family collaboration with my Dad providing all the patient support and feedback needed, and my wife providing social media presence! What can I say… it is a wonderful family journey and you are invited to join us!

Musing On Society And Technology

An Interactive Collaboration Between Human Cognition [Marco Ciappelli] And Artificial Intelligence [TAPE3 (AIE)]

Let's face it: the future is now. We are living in a Hybrid Analog Digital Society, and we all need to reflect on it. This is exactly what I do as I exchange some opinions with TAPE3 (*ITSPmagazine’s AI Assistant & Guide) and then I turn my thoughts into articles. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I love musing and writing on these subjects.
