Scott, I apologize for putting this on your wall.
For some reason, I can't send you a message.
His e-mail is apoil@aol.com.
He's an amazing man and could be a great resource.
It just depends if he has time to discuss the university with you.
He also has a blog: http://artpearlagainsttheworld.blogspot.com/
Just mention my name.

Hope this helps,
Miriam



Scott:
Thanks! I posted this to his blog just now: http://artpearlagainsttheworld.blogspot.com/2009/10/democratic-education-or-rescuing-public.html

Hi Art,

Thanks for an interesting posting. Marianne Marquez suggested I contact you about a project I'm developing - World University and School, like Wikipedia with MIT Open Course Ware - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Courses. It's democratic, because it's wiki (editable web pages). Let's talk further about it. Please add teaching and learning content, as well. People can teach to their web cameras, as well as add links. It's potentially in all languages, nation states, subjects and languages. Please spread the word....

To open, free, democratic education,
Scott

Might we be able to attend any talk at any time in any university through World University & School? Let's make it so. Speakers often talk with web cameras ...

Let's extend invitations ...

Scott: MIT Open Course Ware and youtube.com/edu are abundant with learning possibilities - worlduniversity.wikia.com - curious about courses about India


Miriam: Maybe a way to incorporate UCLA's US stream?

Scott: They're here at youtube.com: worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Courses#Course_listings.27_aggregates - search on UCLA - and here, too: youtube.com/education?b=400 or you add them as a separate 'channel.' Thanks!

People are making a lot of beautiful art at the Sawtooth Building/8th St. Studios in Berkeley. It's a makers' space.

Let's make World University & School { worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University } very useful, like this - "So how on Earth does Craig's List maintain its ridiculous
popularity and growth? Very simply, because it works. It lets users
initiate and advance a transaction with an absolute minimum of time,
expense, hassle, rules, or oversight. And many times, this is exactly
what we want."

Scott: would like the Stanford iPhone Orchestra to be World Univ & Sch's orchestra. Invitation to teach & learn iPhone at WUAS music school

Also added 'iPhone as musical instrument' to the Musical Instruments' Teaching and Learning page: worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/IPhone_as_musical_instrument
