Let’s collect inspiring videos about humane tech and present them in a list (a generic ‘Mood board’, if you will). Before we get to that, you can suggest interesting videos below..

Here is a beautiful one that I would like to see us emulate in terms of effectiveness and power.

Well-produced indeed, @patmatsu Let me add the video link to Hyper Reality by Keiichi Matsuda:

Our physical and virtual realities are becoming increasingly intertwined. Technologies such as VR, augmented reality, wearables, and the internet of things are pointing to a world where technology will envelop every aspect of our lives. It will be the glue between every interaction and experience, offering amazing possibilities, while also controlling the way we understand the world. Hyper-Reality attempts to explore this exciting but dangerous trajectory. It was crowdfunded, and shot on location in Medellín, Colombia.

I have an idea (sort of) of making a video that contrasts this dystopic version of the future, and shows a future reality where humane tech prevails.

Very important to mention is the work by Steve Cutts. Brilliant animated video's on humane tech topics.

"My animations are created mainly using After Effects, Flash, Photoshop and Cinema 4D."

His YouTube channel is here (but only few of his video's): https://www.youtube.com/user/steviecutts
There are more to be found using search, but I don't know if they constitute license breaches (YouTube is strange in that respect). But this is a great one:

Are you lost in the world like me? (official): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VASywEuqFd8
Mobile world: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUW1wjlKvmY
Smart phone addiction, Crazy world: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwzmQf44hMo

Edit: Okay, have to do it.. add one more: Happiness from Steve Cutts on Vimeo

Something that is could be easily crowd-sourced:

YouTube 3.5 million views: "How is your phone changing you?"

Thank you. I like the Hyper Reality video a lot.

@patmatsu can you add the above links to the Resources document in separate bullet points?

If you can do that, then separate the bullets by an empty line, and create Markdown links i.e. [title](url) not raw URL's.

You can name your commit message as Update resources README (#21), so the commit is visible in this issue, and we know the doc is up-to-date (handy when suggesting more resources in this issue).
