Hi Robert, Bruce, Jack and All,

Thanks much for your note, Robert. Am not seeking to join the UUCPA choir in situ, but would be interested in staying on the email list - and re eventually exploring growing a virtual choir - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Virtual_Choir - re World Univ & Sch - e.g. on Thursday evenings PT, and Sunday mornings PT - with simply a tablet in front of you, Bruce, so that interested folks from around the world - UUs and Church choir singers especially - could explore singing with in real, real time online, either muted or not, post Eric Whitacre, and such that we could develop new voice singing information technologies (building on something like Rosetta Stone 3's language learning software +) ... and perhaps also with Stanford / Google for I.T. innovations and developments.

Would it be ok to remain on the list (with both emails) please? Thank you, and nice to be in touch!

Friendly regards, Scott

Creative Robotics' school online at WUaS

Hi Byron,

I've got a Creative Robotics' school online idea going, maybe eventually in the shop next door, and am wondering if I could please hypothetically drone-deliver some early prototype products to you (via perhaps a realistic virtual earth as well) 4.3 miles away, but not as the crow flies over East Bay MUD. :)

Although many matriculated students at WUaS might be doing something similar from all over the world, I won't encourage them to drone-deliver their early prototype products to you too :)

Here are some tweets about you from 2014 I just retweeted here - https://twitter.com/scottmacleod ...

Are you into Richard Rorty at all?


Will likely Tweet about his thinking again tomorrow and re - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Richard%20Rorty ...  and re this again … :)

Glad to have heard from Nancy Larson recently and in communication with another Reedie, Katherine Verdery, who had just given a Stanford Anthro talk I heard ... I hope Katherine and I might collaborate further in my actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' project ... and re a section in a chapter in her recent book. She graduated from Reed around 1970s and with an Anthropology Ph.D. from Stanford in 1977.

Cheers, and Regards, Scott

Hi Byron,

Have fun in the snow in Tahoe this weekend. I heard lots of snow may be falling - it's raining a lot here, and felt a lot like Portland as I just walked down to the Canyon, CA US Post Office.

Also won't be sending any creative robotics' prototype products via drones - like a Lego Mindstorms' EV3 cross-country telemarking skier :) - to you in Tahoe for a long long time probably. Batteries for 'there and back again' have a ways to go, for one. :) And here are new drone standards, as well -

The first worldwide drone standards have been unveiled to keep aircraft safe

https://www.technologyreview.com/the-download/612460/the-first-worldwide-drone-standards-have-been-unveiled-to-keep-aircraft-safe/ (https://twitter.com/techreview/status/1066146144777134080) - Cool. Would be great to figure out the recycling of robots now too. I read Lego is doing an exhaustive research project into this, but cars missed the mark.

Any Toyota robotics on your radar? Many good related robotics' ideas here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/robotics - .

Cheers, Scott
