  • The Identification and Division of Steve Jobs
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Scott M. Anderson for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in Speech Communication, Speech Communication, and English presented on May 17, 2012. Title: The Identification and Division of Steve Jobs Abstract approved: Mark P. Moore On April 1, 1976, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak entered into a partnership agreement to found Apple Computer. In the decade that followed, Apple experienced remarkable growth and success, as Jobs catapulted Apple to the Fortune 500 list of top‐flight companies faster than any other company in history. Under direction of Jobs, Apple, an idea that started in a garage, transformed into a major force in the computer industry of the 1980s. Though Jobs’ leadership undoubtedly influenced Apple’s success during this time, in 1995, he was forced to resign, when conflicts mounted at the executive level. Using Kenneth Burke’s theory of identification and the dramatistic process, this thesis examines Jobs’ discourse through a series of interviews and textual artifacts. First, I provide a framework for Jobs’ acceptance and rejection of the social order at Apple, and then consider the ways in which Jobs identified with employee and consumer audiences on the basis of division. Analysis shows that Jobs identified with individual empowerment, but valued separation and exclusivity. Jobs’ preference to create identification through division, therefore, established the foundation for new identifications to emerge. The findings of this study suggest that division has significant implications for creating unity. ©Copyright by Scott M.

  • Hintz 1 DRAFT V1 – Please Do Not Cite Without Author's Permission. Susan
    Hintz 1 Susan Kare: Design Icon by Eric S. Hintz, PhD Historian, Lemelson Center for the Study of Invention and Innovation National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution [email protected] SHOT SIGCIS – Works in Progress Session Albuquerque, NM October 11, 2015 DEAR COLLEAGUES: Thanks for reading this work-in-progress! I’m a SIGCIS rookie and relatively new to the history of computing. Thus, in terms of feedback, I’d appreciate a) some sense of whether this proposed article would have any traction within the scholarly/SIGCIS community and b) some help situating the story within the relevant secondary literature and historiography. Finally, given the largely non-archival sources I had to work with, I wrote this up more like a magazine feature (vs. scholarly article) so I’d also appreciate c) any suggestions for appropriate journals and publication venues. P.S. This article is ripe for lots of colorful images. Thanks! ESH Graphic designer Susan Kare has been called the “the Betsy Ross of the personal computer,” the “Queen of Look and Feel,” the “Matisse of computer icons,” and the “mother of the Mac trash can.”1 Indeed, Kare is best known for designing most of the distinctive icons, typefaces, and other graphic elements that gave the Apple Macintosh its characteristic—and widely emulated—look and feel. Since her work on the Mac during the early 1980s, Kare has spent the last three decades designing user interface elements for many of the leading software and Internet firms, from Microsoft and Oracle to Facebook and Paypal. Kare’s work is omnipresent in the digital realm; if you have clicked on an icon to save a file, switched the fonts in a document from Geneva to Monaco, or tapped your smart phone screen to launch a mobile app, then you have benefited from her designs.

  • A Film Really About Heroines
    “Steve Jobs”: A Film Really About Heroines Mark P. Barry February 1, 2016 When Steve Jobs died in 2011, his authorized biography was rushed to press, quickly followed by the low-budget, independent film, “Jobs.” Fans of the Apple CEO had to wait until last October for the full Hollywood production, “Steve Jobs,” featuring an A-list cast and team, to reach the big screen. Audiences were disappointed in the film because it bombed at the box office. Expectations surely were for a depiction of Jobs’ stellar technology and business achievements. But the truth is: this movie is more about its heroines than its hero. For her performance in “Steve Jobs,” Kate Winslet won the 2016 Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress and is nominated for an Oscar this year as well. She plays Joanna Hoffman, long-time marketing chief at Apple and “right-hand woman” to its co-founder. Known as the one person who could stand up to the difficult and temperamental Jobs, in the film Hoffman calls herself his “work wife.” Winslet, as Joanna, is the moral center of the movie. Very loosely based on the Walter Isaacson official biography – a book Apple Mark P. Barry and Jobs’ family were not happy with – “Steve Jobs” is written by Aaron Sorkin, who won the 2011 Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar for “The Social Network” and this year’s Golden Globe for Best Screenplay for “Steve Jobs.” “Steve Jobs” was lucky to get made. It was originally produced by Sony Pictures, but after North Korea hacked its computers in late 2014, divulging embarrassing executive emails, Universal Pictures acquired the film.

  • Why I Started Future Shape
    Paris October 17th, 2017 Dear Founder, I hear you’re working on some incredible stuff. You’ve found a way to put Lidar on a solid-state chip. You’re able to identify 108 proteins in a drop of blood. You know how to manufacture incredible new products with unpackaged LEDs on paper-thin substrate. You have the inspiration, the idea, the passion to make it happen, but anything truly groundbreaking is hard to make real. So now what? “How do I fund this without giving away what I’m building?” “How do I protect my idea?” “Once it’s done, how do I get people to find out about it, buy it?” “How do I make this thing? And once I have it, can I make that thing thousands of times at scale?” I’ve been through these same questions — and 1000s more — over and over again. I started my first companies during high school and college selling hardware and software, even creating semiconductors. It taught me a lot of hard lessons about how to make my technical dreams become real and impactful. With my Computer Engineering degree in hand, I applied to General Magic. And didn’t let up until they hired me. My heroes were there — Bill Atkinson, Andy Hertzfeld, Joanna Hoffman, Susan Kare. We worked on the first smartphone, 15+ years before its time. In ‘99 I started another company again, Fuse Systems. I took that technology & team to Apple where I put together the team to develop the iPod - and, this time ‘round, had Steve Jobs as my mentor.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} US Male
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} U.S. Male - Inside the Box by Lisa Worrall Inside the Lives of Female Maskers. B eing comfortable in your own skin is difficult enough. But what if expressing yourself requires you to alter your identity? German photographer Corinna Kern spent several months in Germany capturing the lives of various “female maskers” – predominately heterosexual men who wear a latex mask and bodysuit resembling a woman to embrace their femininity. Her first real encounter with a female masker occurred by coincidence while walking the streets of Germany. Curious, the photographer soon discovered female maskers have a thriving online community that remains taboo to the public. “It’s not very big,” Kern tells TIME. “So many people are quite far away from each other so it’s not really that you find people meeting up regularly.” Female Maskers isn’t exactly a new phenomenon. Kerry, an American female masker living in Seattle began a business dedicated to making realistic female masks in 1996. A 2014 British documentary called Secrets of the Living Dolls followed the lives of males who go through the motions of being a masker at the risk of being ostracized by society and their loved ones. While the documentary introduced the subculture to mainstream audiences, Kern mentions some she talked to were hesitant to participate in her project because the documentary portrayed them as “freaks,” something she kept in mind when photographing her subjects. “I think it’s a natural thing for me not to capture them in a freakish way,” she says. “It’s just something that goes along with my photography, my style of photography because I’m very open minded.

We’re really delighted to welcome you, Joanna Hoffman, back to the Computer History Museum. I’m Marguerite Gong Hancock, together with Hansen Hsu and Marc Weber of the museum and we’re delighted to have you here for Part 2 of your oral history. Today we’ll be focusing on your time with the Mac team at Apple, moving onto NeXT; Hansen will be leading that portion. Marc will be leading the portion on General Magic. And then I’ll be closing up with a review of your career and work afterwards. Of course, we’ll be really interactive, but we’re really delighted to have you here. Hoffman: Well, thank you very much. It’s such a privilege. I can’t even imagine doing this, but I’m very excited to do it. Hancock: Thank you. Hsu: So, to start off, could you maybe talk a little bit about Steve Job’s charisma and the reality distortion field? Hoffman: Well, you know, because Steve had a very strong vision of what he intended to do—and I don’t want to label him as a mere visionary, because, frankly speaking, visionaries are one in a million. People who are able to bring visions into reality, and make them successful, and make them stick are one in a billion.
