According to a recent World Economic Forum report, personal data has become a new asset class and the "new oil of the Internet" . As such, personal data both need to be protected and shared, analyzed, as well as, monetized. Regulatory practices have been slow to keep pace with the changing nature of data capture, analysis, and use. As a consequence, innovations in digital legal, regulatory and governance practices and mechanisms are needed to keep pace with advances in sensor, machine learning, and "Big Data" technologies. This talk presents an approach that gives individuals and groups control over their personal data while enabling the trusted exchange of data. Project Open Mustard Seed, a collaboration of ID3 and the MIT Media Lab, provides an open source platform for innovations in governance, authentication, identity management, access control, auditing, analytics and visualization technologies for highly scalable forms of coordinated action and exchange. The goal is to enable new forms of "data banking', collective action and digital institution building and experimentation that are self-governing and correcting.
