willem boijens - life with impermanence

life with I M P E R M A N E N C E

The second wave of experiences enabled through IP technology, washed upon the shores of the internet over the course of the first decade of the 21st century.

Developing a portfolio of services based on the construct of people, content, place and time.

Evolving from media, social into hyperlocal solutions to make us interact with others and other things.

Mobilized by ever smarter, smaller and connected devices.

Making time an even more scarce currency in the value exchange.

As a result life has become increasingly impermanent.

Whereas recent developments will continue to evolve, the weak signals of new opportunity spaces that will dominate innovation over the next 5-10 years, can be clearly heard.

With impermanence as a macro trend, I will explore latent opportunities in spaces, transit, utilities, involvement and transaction, there for us to discover.

And providing catalysts for collaboration and development amongst entrepreneurs.

People check in to the service if they are driving, cycling or walking to see if they can take something (or someone, if they set their preferences) that needs to go in that direction, even if it is only part way there.

life with I M P E R M A N E N C E

Life with Impermanence supports the notion that everything around us underlies a permanent change, everything is in a constant motion, in a flux – spatially, timely, emotional, and cultural.
