EFTA00304813 | EFTA00304813 PROFILES THE VISIONARY A digitalpioneer questions what technology has wrought. BY JENNIFER KAHN ("N ne day in June, Jaron Lanier was V lounging barefoot in the living room of his house in the Berkeley hills. Stretching back on a wom sofa, he began musing about the connection between Representative Anthony Weiner's tweeting of lewd photos and Facebook's controversial deployment of facial-recognition software, which automatically scans uploaded photos and identifies a user's friends. To Lanier, a computer scientist and author, the common thread is that the Internet in general—and social networking in particular—has become difficult for the ordinary person to use with any security. 'Tve really been struck that a lot of people have said, 'Why would powerful men risk so much for some sexual adventure?'" Lanier said. "But risk can be very sexual." He briefly considered the possibility oftwo alternate Internets: one in which everything was viewable by anybody, and one in which users had absolute control over their private information. In neither case, Lanier said, would Weiner have sent his illicit snapshots. "What makes it erotic is the risk," Lanier speculated. "If you had either perfect competence or no need for competence, because everything was a hundred per cent transparent, there would be no risk. So, in a way, the whole erotic risk factor of the Internet is being able to use it but not very well." He paused to interrogate a tortoiseshell kitten that was dozing in a corner of the sofa. "What's happening, Starlight?" he cooed. As the kitten peered up sleepily, he added, "We think she's female, but I haven't done the most thorough examination." Ile paused and said dryly, "If only cats texted, we'd know by now." Lanier is often described as "visionary," a word that manages to convey both a capacity for mercurial insight and a lack of practical job skills. In the nineteeneighties, he helped pioneer the field ofvirtual reality, and he is often credited with having coined the term. He has also dabbled in film. In 2001, he advised the writ- ers of "Minority Report," Steven Spielberg's film about a dystopian future. Since 2006, he has worked as a consultant at Microsoft Research. More recently, he has become the go-to pundit for people lamenting the social changes wrought by modern technology. Last year, he published "You Are Not a Gadget: A Manifesto," a provocative critique of digital technologies, including Wikipedia (which he called a triumph of "intellectual mob rule") and social-networking sites like Facebook and Twitter, which he has described as dehumanizing and designed to encourage shallow interactions. Teen-agers, he writes, may vigilantly maintain their online reputations, but they do so "driven more by fear than by love." In our conversation about Facebook's face-recognition software, he added, "It'll just create a more paranoid society with a fakey-fakey social life—much like what happened in Communist countries, where people had a fake social life that the Stasi could see, and then this underground life." Such objections have made Lanier an unusual figure: he is a technology expert who dislikes what technology has become. "I'm disappointed with the way the Internet has gone in the past ten years," he told me at one point. He added, "I've always felt that the humancentered approach to computer science leads to more interesting, more exotic, more wild, and more heroic adventures than the machine-supremacy approach, where information is the highest goat" These arguments have proved popular. The book has received admiring itviews in the Times and (twice) in The New York Review Books. In the months after "Gadget" was published, Lanier lectured at Harvard's Shorenstein Center, travelled to Seoul to speak at a major conference about innovation, and made Time's list of the hundred "most influential people in the world." At the South by Southwest Interactive confer- ence, in Austin, in March of 2010, Lanier gave a talk, before which he asked his audience not to blog, text, or tweet while he was speaking. He later wrote that his message to the crowd had been: "If you listen first, and write later, then whatever you write will have had time to filter through your brain, and you'll be in what you say. This is what makes you cussed on the long game, not the item of surrounded by a mossy undcrbcard and the week Because the issues I'm talking rootlike dreadlocks, Lanier has an imposabout will take a long time to address." ing presence that nonetheless comes off as oddly fluttery.

Peter Haynes, a technology strategist and former U.S. business editor of The Economist, who is currently working with Lanier at Microsoft, says that he sees Lanier's book as an overdue corrective to the national obsession with social networking. "As I read it, I was thinking, Yes, goddammit, this is exactly how I feel!" he said. Such enthusiastic reactions have been, for Lanier, both gratifying and disorienting. He relishes the attention, but it also unnerves him. When a major newspaper asked him to write an op-ed about the Weiner scandal, he declined. "I'm not sure I should be the person who's doing that," Lanier explained. "I'm trying to stay fo- old daughter, Lilibell, whom he credits with being his muse for "Gadget" When I visited in June, Lanier had just returned from NewYork City, where he celebrated his fifty-first birthday in the lounge of the Bowery Hotel. The event, which began modestly, gradually turned into a celebrity bash. The film director Jim Jarmusch stopped by uninvited, as did the actor Forest Whitaker. As Whitaker recalls it, he and Lanier got into a long conversation about individual empowerment and the Internet. "When I saw him, I was really excited," Whitaker remembers. "I le was sitting with a lot of other guys. I came over and said, 'Virtual reality!' I have a lot of respect for him. I-ie has an artist's soul."

His house is nearly submerged in Butter, the living-room decor includes a fourfoot hookah topped with a rubber Jar-Jar Binks mask, polka-dot curtains, a grand piano buried under papers and adorned with a pink feathered hat, and a homemade cave draped in scarves. The house also contains more than a thousand rare musical instruments, all of which Lanier plays. Ile will often begin his talks by performing on an esoteric instrument such as a Laotian khene, which sounds something like a harmonica. That afternoon, Lanier ascended the stairs to his studio, picking his way past an overflowing garbage can and a forest of microphone stands, and THE NEW YORKER, JULY I 618, 2O11 47 EFTA00304813
