My own experience is use the tools that are out there. Use the digital world. But never lose sight of the need to reach out and talk to other people who don't share your view. Listen to them and see if you can find a way to compromise.

When the first computers started to come in we tried to digitalize the seismological equipment.

A smartphone links patients' bodies and doctors' computers which in turn are connected to the Internet which in turn is connected to any smartphone anywhere. The new devices could put the management of an individual's internal organs in the hands of every hacker online scammer and digital vandal on Earth.

It was a huge challenge to learn digital painting well enough so that computers don't pop into mind when one sees one.

I think we are at the very beginning of high changes not only in terms of digital film but in the way the movies will be screened whether they'll be screened on phones on computers - on everything.

Anyway all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and that can't be good for you.

The digital revolution is far more significant than the invention of writing or even of printing.

The Internet is not just one thing it's a collection of things - of numerous communications networks that all speak the same digital language.

The Internet has changed everything. We expect to know everything instantly. If you don't understand digital communication you're at a disadvantage.

You're talking about a younger generation Generation Y whose interpersonal communication skills are different from Generation X. The younger generation is more comfortable saying something through a digital mechanism than even face to face.

Economically it's more expensive to make movies. I hope digital movies change that.

Not since the steam engine has any invention disrupted business models like the Internet. Whole industries including music distribution yellow-pages directories landline telephones and fax machines have been radically reordered by the digital revolution.

Design in its broadest sense is the enabler of the digital era - it's a process that creates order out of chaos that renders technology usable to business. Design means being good not just looking good.

Many people see technology as the problem behind the so-called digital divide. Others see it as the solution. Technology is neither. It must operate in conjunction with business economic political and social system.

Not since the digital revolution in the early '90s has technology placed such a comprehensive burden on business employees and individuals to reinvent their business plans services and products and themselves to keep pace with the changing marketplace.

When anything goes digital let alone something as immaterial as a book there is a tendency to see it as just in the air to be taken and to lose the sense that somebody once made it.

No matter how fast I could do it with the digital camera I don't think I would get the same thing out of it. The passion I have for formulating an idea stands alone. It is the important essence of what I do.

Style used to be an interaction between the human soul and tools that were limiting. In the digital era it will have to come from the soul alone.

Another thing to do with the blues is how they were recorded. They were done on the quick and some of that stuff was made on wire not even tape let alone digital.

As a result of the digital age and the decline of first-class mail there is no question that the Postal Service must change and develop a new business model.

In the digital age of 'overnight' success stories such as Facebook the hard slog is easily overlooked.

Credit or debit cards for starters are nothing short of shoppers' Novocain. Even in the age of digital purchases and virtual money we still attach a special value to dirty paper with pictures of presidents on it. Handing some of that to a cashier simply hurts more than handing over a little sliver of plastic.

I want to be part of the resurgence of things that are tangible beautiful and soulful rather than just give in to the digital age. But when I talk to people about this they just say 'Yeah I know what you mean ' and stare at their mobiles.

What turns me on about the digital age what excited me personally is that you have closed the gap between dreaming and doing. You see it used to be that if you wanted to make a record of a song you needed a studio and a producer. Now you need a laptop.
