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 everyday. 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.

The Urban Legend of Free Social MarketingSession with Jordan KretchmerLivefyre Founder & CEO
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.

Redefining CapitalismKeynote withNick HanauerSecond Avenue Partners Venture Capitalist

With capitalism under attack after decades of wage stagnation and rising inequality, it is time to replace our old economic theories with better and more modern ones that recognize that innovation and inclusion drive economic growth, not the accumulation of capital.

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 Farmster truck will be parked in front of Melrose Market Studios Thursday, October 16, 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM

CEY ADAMS ART SHOW
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 WINTRSeattle 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.
