<span>The fast and continuous technological change that is characteristic of the information society we find ourselves in has demonstrable impact on the way librarians go about their business. This paper offers a scenario of technological changes already in the pipeline and yet to come, and how those changes will impact the role of librarians in the future. One of the main concerns of this paper is the continued relevance of information professionals as infomediaries in our future society.</span><div><span style="color: #303030; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span></div>

The proposition of “harmony higher than justice” was initiated by Li Zehou in 2007. It implies a hierarchical consideration rather than value assessment, thus schemed to reveal at least five aspects: (1) Harmony on this account is to be preconditioned by justice. (2) Harmony largely stems from human emotion instead of human rationality. (3) There are three forms of harmony in the societal, personal and eco-environmental domains. (4) What makes the three forms of harmony possible involves some key notions that vouchsafe a theoretical ground and a primary part of the “Chinese religious morality”. (5) The morality of this kind procures a regulative principle to facilitate an appropriate constitution of “modern social ethics” with regard to harmony as the ultimate destination of the future society and world alike. Accordingly, the proposition can be employed to further develop “the Chinese application” and impact “the Western substance”.

The technologies of the future society can make a super connective society where everything is connected and organically interacted, and it promotes “Hyper-Connected”, “Hyper-Intelligent”, "Hyper-Real" as it is possible to become intellectual by techniques such as artificial intelligence and big data analysis. To find out the key triggers by extracting the technologies with these characteristics and identifying what factors and forms are used allows us to grasp changes in the industry due to the rapidly changing domestic environment and the influence of innovation technologies. According to the analysis, the key triggers of major technologies in information society are keywords such as security, technology, service, virtual, and finance which have a great chance to converge with other technologies. The implications of this study are as follows. First, key technologies of domestic information society were identified based on a huge amount of reliable news data. In addition, Network Analysis based on Data, which has increased the frequency of studies all over the field including computer science, sociology and business administration, is applied to predicting the future. Based on this, the methodology has been proposed that can be used to predict the pattern of technology development or notable technologies in the future. This study wasn’t conducted only on one detailed technology, but comprehensively on major technologies extracted in the era of 4th Industrial Revolution and presents Black Swan Prediction to enhance competitiveness of domestic industry in related technologies and create new added value.

The modern world is continuously engaged in a racing processes aimed towards building a favourable future society. In this development, the apparent tools seem to be related to theoretical thought, new technology, avant-garde approaches and innovation. The bodily focus and the societal micro level processes are often left behind in this race. Though, in our aspiration towards urban development and the future society, we should not forget that the bodily functions and the possibilities that these give, represent one of the most fundamental and basic tools we have. This article would like to form an argument carrying out the seeming advantage of bringing in not just technological and theoretic avant-garde to the term of innovation and development, but to invite the whole body into the forming of the future, thereby seeing the term innovation from a material perspective. As the art field today is more often approaching subject matters that are primarily societal, we would like to introduce the potential of a mutual approach from the other end, seeing the art field as a central part in the creation of engagement and progress that can instigate another form of efficiency and present an expanded understanding of what innovative activity can be, and how it can be perceived and comprehended. We would like to debate an art form that takes the bodily, active and relational focus and its social context as a base and starting point on the road towards societal consciousness and potential development. Looking at the example of the art project «The Collectivity Project», this article takes it’s starting point in the following question; How can applied art projects in connection to social contexts, like The Collectivity Project, show the art field and the bodily sensuousness as a tool in the forming of values pointing towards an alternative way of thinking societal consciousness and development?
