Hi Nelson, Dean & All, (Christiane - one of your emails has been bouncing back, am trying a second alternative one!),

Glad to be giving my 4th actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic project talk - http://www.scottmacleod.com/ActualVirtualHarbinBook.html (and I just updated this web page) - in the UC Berkeley Anthropology department on Oct 26, 2018 at 5pm PDT / midnight UTC - which I plan to live stream as well  - and hope too to have my forthcoming book on paper there.   

Mahlon, can you please post the title of my talk here - http://tourismstudies.org/Colloquia_2018-2019.htm ? 

     Colloquium featuring Scott GK MacLeod
        (Professor of Anthropology, World University and School, Online (SF Bay Area))
        Title: Harbin and Avatar Bots:                  Robotics and Tourism 

Will send the talk's description by the 12th. 

All the best, Scott

P.S. From an ethnographic perspective, I write about developing a realistic virtual Harbin in my first book (bit.ly/HarbinBook), - and to get an idea of Google Street View in a very early phase, visit the Harbin Hot Springs' gate in Google Street View here ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ where you can "walk" down the road '4 miles' to Middletown and 'amble' around the streets there, if inclined. (Harbin Hot Springs is my actual-virtual ethnographic field site).

Hi M,

Seeking to develop a schedule to receive my upcoming book of poetry on paper a week before Friday, October 26th (when I'm giving my next Harbin talk at UC Berkeley - http://www.scottmacleod.com/ActualVirtualHarbinBook.html - which web page I'll update soon), and which would be Friday, October 19th, - in 14 days. If it takes 10 days to publish and ship it from Kindle/Amazon, then I should begin the publishing process in their software soon - today even - and finish up with engaging their software in about 4 days, pressing the "publish" button - https://amazon.com/author/scottmacleodworlduniversity. I think this is possible. I've collected about 75 pages of my best poems from 2008 and 2009 in one word document. The subsequent editing process should be fairly straight forward.

What are you up to today? And how are you? Hoping you're doing well. Perhaps it's the publishing process of this my third book which makes me somehow a bit nervous ... not sure ... Since many of my poems are love focused, am curious how in these last few days of editing, how to focus it as a kind of book of love poems ... to be seen.

This will be the 3rd book the Academic~Poetry Press at World University and School - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html (planned with machine translation in all 7097 living languages!) - has published.

L, Scott

Hi M,

This will be the 3rd book which the Academic~Poetry Press at World University and School - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html (planned with machine translation in all 7,097 living languages!) - has published.

Blogged about this here too - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/10/coniferous-coast-redwood-harbin-avatar.html - and may further blog here about the following - 

"USPTO Moving forward with MIT Media Lab: Prior Art Archive https://youtu.be/dMlTZg9I7oc No mention of Blockchain ledger re intl patent offices (that I heard through about 30 minutes), Kuwait ship capsizing w sheep, Art by Disney in Dutch court - Opportunity WITH #RealisticVirtualEarth #BlockchainForArt - #WUaSBlockchainForArt~ "





WUaS is in an unusual position of planning for both online law schools in all ~200 countries' official languages, that could teach about Patent Law, as well as major online universities (MIT OCW-centric) in all ~200 nation states ... and in addition a realistic virtual earth (think Google Street View with TIME SLIDER - all relevant to the Kuwaiti sheep example and Disney art example used by the Swiss speaker in above video).


L, Scott
