Hi All,

In an ongoing search for a "MAGIC MICROPHONE with MOBILE SPEAKER," with a range of a mile or two, and for outdoor Scottish small pipes' gigs with slight wind (e.g. in a winery in multiple locations), 

I'm curious in what ways an engineer could NETWORK together 10 or a 100 oF the large size of the following mobil speakers - for a BAND OF ROVING MINSTRELS, for example. 

And I return to - conceptually - 

- The medium or large size of these two portable speakers (which may not exist yet - and if the sound is good)) with 4 or 8 D size batteries  ...

How best to explore networking such speakers together and with DPA microphone quality? 

Do such speakers or NETWORKED speakers WITH GREAT SOUND exist in other ways, that anyone knows of?

Hi All, 

"Magic MIcrophone with Mobile Speaker" continuing ...

In terms of a mobile speaker which - "gets really loud" - here's an idea - and app called "AmpMe," available for iOS and Android

 - for networking mobile speakers, which are a collection of smartphones ...

"How to Turn a Few Phones Into a Legit Sound System"

https://www.wired.com/2015/09/turn-handful-phones-speaker-system-app/

It's still not a single amplifying mobile speaker for one musical instrument at a gig, such as what I'm looking for for my Scottish small pipes, but perhaps I'll find a way to make a single amplifying smartphone mic with speaker to become as loud as needed for a gig in a winery in multiple locations, and over a mile or two with slight wind. 

Scots' First Minister Nicola Sturgeon is speaking on Tuesday at noon at Stanford ... http://fsi.stanford.edu/events/nicola-sturgeon ... and this will be live-streamed, if any of you are interested.

Musical cheers, 

Scott

*

Consciousness

https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/consciousness/

*

I'm curious particularly about awareness as consciousness, as well as consciousness as "what is it like ...", and via language pathways in the brain. (I'm also further developing the ideas here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/03/newnes-and-wolgan-valley-nsw-whats.html). How is it that humans and other species are conscious? How does awareness work brain-wise - in

A) all the many many ways humans have experienced this subjectively to all the infinite qualia (infinite qualities) that humans experience {including the generation of new ideas and experiences of consciousness} ...  to

B) our inability to explain consciousness from the third person, objectively, our inability to model it brain and bodymind-science wise?

These 1st and 3rd person experiences seem un-dovetail-able, irreconciable, unmeetable and un-joinable - again scientifically, brain and cognitive science-wise.  And how far down the phylogenetic tree does consciousness go - sea slugs? bats? What is it like to be that blue whale in a pod in the south seas as scientific and philosophical humans, in English, think about and study this idea of consciousness (post Darwin, and with science-STEM) to co-constitute with language an understanding about a biological process which many species seem to have in common. It's a mystery ... a fascinating question ... a new Mysterion (for some - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_mysterianism) ... philosophically, linguistically and scientifically and experientially. (Yes, there's

Colin McGinn's "The Mysterious Flame" (1999) -

http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/03/from-atom-to-cosmos-getting-loving.html).

If we are able to model the brain at the atomic, molecular and cellular levels and street view levels, and in all 7,097 living languages, what new interesting questions will we be able to pose to actually potentially understand how consciousness works in humans and other species? Here are some possible beginnings of modeling the brain in 3D and for learning purposes - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/03/from-atom-to-cosmos-getting-loving.html. I hope to explore all this further here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/consciousness - today, as well.

I'm particularly interested in consciousness, for example, metaphorically as a computer application or program - from the third person - and its potentially to generate new ideas, new programs, new awarenesses (e..g language and conversation seem relevant here, in addition to thinking, and especially how consciousness emerges from genes) ... nevertheless, consciousness or awareness is a mystery ... a new Mysterion (See the book review in Nature, "Thinking about consciousness" by Paul E. Griffiths http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v397/n6715/full/397117a0.html from 1999, as well as Emotion and the problem of psychological categories - Paul E. Griffiths
https://philpapers.org/rec/GRIEAT-5 from 2001) ... mind experiment-wise. And actually conceiving of programming this is as unsolvable at this time as is this question of how consciousness or awareness works ...

So, in a way, philosophical and brain/bodymind science questions of consciousness are an amazingly beautiful flag for those who think about these questions, - since they are unresolved questions ... for us human primates, post-Darwin ... who enjoy y/our Yoga ... as well

*

What's the newness "program" in the philosophical / brain science study of consciousness ... as in the school of "New Mysterions" (Nagel, McGinn et al.)?

It seems like we need to understand a lot more about atoms and genetics, for example, before we will be able to ask new questions about how consciousness or awareness "works" in humans, and in a variety of species.

*

What interests you philosophically about questions of consciousness, and re - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/03/newnes-and-wolgan-valley-nsw-whats.html - (where I'm a little in the New Mysterion / and somewhat in the David Chalmers' schools relating to awareness / consciousness and brain science questions ... as well as the virtual world/brain modeling school (vis-a-vis Thomas Dean's at Google Research partial modeling of a fly's brain), - and which is my own new school re consciousness, I think - since modeling brains digitally at the atomic, molecular (see MIT's Scott Greenwald's recent "Electrostatic Playground" video), cellular and street view levels would allow us to address philosopher Tom Nagel's question - what is it like to be a bat (since we could/will conceivably be able to begin to experience the world digitally/virtually as a bat experiences the world) - as well as philosopher Colin McGinn's question about how can meat can be conscious - since virtually modeling atoms, molecules and cells - the "physical," and what meat is made up of - virtually, as bits - and in realistic multimedia {re the actual and the virtual - a focus of my Harbin book especially} will open avenues to understanding awareness emerging from the physical as consciousness.

How best to focus on understanding how consciousness works via language, possibly as chemical information technology in brains/bodyminds, and re, for example, African grey parrots and other parrots with speech?

Having tried the Brainfingers' brain wave headset - http://brainfingers.com - with its language focus (wearing these 3 sensors at the time in 2004, I was able to pick out letters from a keyboard on a computer screen to spell words, without speech or gesture - while needing to relax to be able to use the device), I'd like to develop a research focus at World Univ and Sch with brain wave headsets such as this language-oriented Brainfingers' brain wave headset develops, researchers will begin to understand subjective self-reported aspects of consciousness in relation to the brain chemistry. (I haven't seen a language focus in Tan Le's - https://www.ted.com/talks/tan_le_a_headset_that_reads_your_brainwaves - Conor Russomanno's, MIT CSAIL's - http://www.csail.mit.edu/brain_controlled_robots - or other brain wave headsets yet). In what ways could one further design a developing brainwave headset for species, such as the speech of parakeets, and the sign languages of both species of chimpanzees, of gorillas and of orangutans, which use language, for comparison? {In these regards exploring consciousness furthermore re generating loving bliss neurophysiology via singing is a related avenue of focus}.

Friendly regards,

Scott

In many ways, this question about consciousness I'm asking here is what is it like to live inside a robot - and, for example, per https://twitter.com/JimSpohrer/status/847566004909514753 - and in particular, inside a parakeet robot or an orangutan robot, with language or speech, and from the atomic, molecular and cellular as well as street view, or forest-observing, levels, experientially - and especially with awareness? And how could we learn about this via language-oriented brain wave headsets over the next few decades as they develop? How to develop and design a orangutan brain wave headset and a parakeet brain wave headset differentially to contribute to this research? And how best to code or program for what is it like to live inside a parakeet robot, for example, or a human robot, consciousness-wise and information technologically - and even especially in terms of inter-species communication {eg. between orangutans and humans, or parakeets and humans, etc.}? And how does brain meat create conscious experience in species, - and especially those with language capabilities? And in what ways could we explore what is it like to live inside a robot with realistic digital avatar bots, going from, say a Google group video Hangout to Youtube to 3D interactive virtual world to avatar bot coding for consciousness at the atomic, molecular (Tom Dean's partial coding of a fly's brain) to the cellular level to the behavioral level - with consciousness?

Nice to run into you again yesterday, and thanks again for your email. 

Here's the Stanford Online High School video I find inspiring and relevant - 

Stanford Online High School

 

Stanford Online High School

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRZTFWtRVRY - in conceiving of Friendly-informed World University and School's online high schools in all countries' main languages, in case you didn't find this (accessible from here among other of my blog posts - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/03/species-that-sail-how-friends-education.html).

And here's the Stanford Online High School website itself - https://ohs.stanford.edu. 

(And here, too, is the very beginning of the "WUaS International Baccalaureate Diploma and Programme" -

http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_International_Baccalaureate_Diploma_and_Programme - 

and online high school, before WUaS begins to emerge from Wikipedia's database, Wikidata/Wikibase in its 358 languages). CC MIT OpenCourseWare-centric World University and School would also like to build on CC4 MIT OCW High School - eg https://ocw.mit.edu/high-school/humanities-and-social-sciences/ - and MIT OCW Scholar - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/ocw-scholar/ - but the Stanford OHS would still be the model for online human interaction.

Hi Mike, 

Very nice to meet and talk with you today on Mission Street in SF!

Just shared this with two friends, both of whom went to Stanford in the 1970s, one from SF Friends Meeting and one from Palo Alto Meeting: 

"Walking up thru the Mission, just met serendipitously Mike Hanas, new head of SF Friends School - http://www.sffriendsschool.org/ - in front of a food truck at around 15th. Glad I recognized him and said something. We had a good brief talk. He seems like a GREAT head of school." (I was actually coming from the World University and School hive meeting space at AFSC/SFFM - MW 10-noon - when we met, Mike). 

Mike, as head of K-8 SF Friends School, have you seen the Stanford Online High School - https://ohs.stanford.edu/ - by any chance?

Stanford OHS - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRZTFWtRVRY - as an example for Friends' education even.

I ran into someone at a Stanford University Ceili dance yesterday who is on its staff - and was reminded of very long time Stanford Professor Patrick Suppes

(who was brilliant - possibly a genius, whatever that means - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Suppes and http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2013/07/honduras-rosewood-wuas-international.html - and Patrick Suppes and I both also attended this "Stanford School of Philosophy of Science" conference at Stanford on October 25 and 26, 2013 - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2013/10/california-tiger-salamander-notes-from.html),

and who founded a precursor to this, also affiliated with Stanford, called EPGY - Educational Program for Gifted Youth. 

You'll find an inspiring video about the Stanford Online High School here -

Masai lion: How might a disabled WUaS student & in their room/home in a VIDEO classroom in Google Street View in Addison Museum add to learning exp?, Assistive_Technologies (planned in all 7,943 languages) and Museums (all in all languages) and Virtual Worlds at WUaS, Appreciating this Stanford University Online High School approach to group video classroom, and especially re WUaS's pedagogical plans for engaging the Conference Method re Reed College but online in developing new ways, Appreciating too outgoing Stanford University President Hennessy's talk and emphasis on entrepreneurship, leadership as well as the physical beauty of Stanford's campus, John Hennessy, Stanford University

 http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/02/masai-lion-how-might-disabled-wuas.html - including about one of its students sailing around the world while studying there online. (Former Stanford President and now Professor-again John Hennessy's video is also inspiring here). 

I'm curious how Friends' education might move into the online high school space (and in all countries' main languages, as you may know) - and think Stanford Online High School is the best example of this that I've seen. I may explore talking with SOHS further about this, having already met with them sporadically and in various ways a number of times over the past few years. 

Thanks for our conversation, and nice to meet you in person.

Friendly regards, 

Scott

Scott Macleod's Reviews > Naked Harbin Ethnography: Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-Optionality and Virtual Harbin

Naked Harbin Ethnography: Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-Optionality and Virtual Harbin 
by Scott MacLeod 

Scott Macleod's review

Nov 21, 2016  ·  edit

An excellent and far-reaching anthropology of the 1960s-70s forward, counterculture, virtual worlds and information technology, which looks at actual Harbin on-the-ground since 1972-present, and virtual Harbin in a 3D interactive multimedia world (for ethnographic field work), which is planned for ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/sea....

After you check in at the gate at Harbin, one resident who has worked there for years often says, "Go play." This ethnography of Harbin Hot Springs in northern California explicitly and theoretically brings together approaches to the comparative study of both the actual and virtual, by developing new methodologies in studying Harbin - as a kind of hippy or Alternative haven from modernity. Through this anthropological book and conceiving of virtual Harbin, you can begin not only to "be there" - to visit Harbin virtually in the text, as it were - but also to revisit the 1960s and its related freedom-seeking movements. Moreover, Harbin Hot Springs' clothing-optionality, spirituality and alternative culture are attractive in mysterious ways. In the way that Margaret Mead's work was theoretical and gained widespread attention at the same time, this book will appeal due to the broad interest in emerging interactive virtual worlds, as well as 1960's informed alternative Harbin's exotic, yet familiar, attractiveness, now mediated digitally. As information technologies and wondrous developments like virtual worlds continue to develop rapidly, I hope to engage you, the reader, further in the conversation about the creativity in countercultural thinking, in virtual worlds, in comparative ethnography, and in the experiences of interacting in this virtual Harbin, even as visitors to actual Harbin enjoy visiting this hot springs' retreat center.
