December 1, 2011 Dr. David E. Martin looks briefly at what innovation is, and challenges a few popular American myths regarding the origins of inventions which have had a profound impact upon humanity. He looks at the enclosure system, the evolution of patents, and how the current system has been misused to suppress technologies that threaten entire industries. To rectify the situation, He founded the Global Innovation Commons to provide a global repository of innovations which, while possibly protected in one or more countries, can be used in the rest of the world, enabling open source generic production of technologies.
Dr. David E. Martin is also the founder of M-CAM, a public policy advisor, and visionary. He has done pioneering work in unstructured data analysis and linguistic genomics, and ground-breaking work in global finance and ethics. He has woven some of his life experience, obtained in over 120 countries, into his first novel, Coup d'Twelve. Dr. Martin gained international notoriety for his data analysis in disclosure prior to the global financial crisis in 2008. He blogs regularly at Inverted Alchemy: An Integral Economy.
Dr. David E. Martin is extremely knowledgeable and active on many important fronts. This is Part I of a two Part series, and Part II, will focus on his novel Coup d'Twelve.
His address to the EU Parliament on Future of Proprietary Economic Models, on September 17, 2008 complements this interview.
