Good morning, M,

What do you have ahead of you this weekend?

'Big box' university stores' idea and WUaS? Mentioned this big box idea in the WUaS Annual Meeting Minutes - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/arabian-sand-gazelle-minutes-for-annual.html?m=0 - and I think it would be great to learn from Ikea how to grow these, rather than from many of the others out there (e.g. W-M etc) - - on the physical side. Ikea is excellent, and also has much international, multilingual, and multicultural experience; Swedes are high achievers in so many ways, commerce-wise esp.

On the virtual or digital side, - - perhaps learning from Google could make sense although they're not 'retailers,' like Ikea is with home furnishings. This would be for physical-digital bookstores, computer stores, robotics' stores, hospital technologies' distribution (surgery supplies etc) centers + ... re World Univ & Sch and its Med Sch's / teaching hospitals in 200 countries' languages. See too, 14 WUaS planned revenue streams - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html ...

Would like for WUaS to become a very creative coding university - like MIT or Stanford - and perhaps to organically develop this approach to Actual-Virtual, Physical-Digital big box university stores and with an academic press in all 7112 living languages !!! May involve creating a new language even!!

It would be great too if a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs could emerge in Google Street View with time slider as my "To the Dance or the Pools? ~ Virtually!..." book is published in the next few weeks, and for even visiting aspects of the poems :) ... to be seen ...

But maybe we can do it. Here's the idea:

https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/status/1198010439315050496?s=19 (with a photo) - Patch together pictures & videos of @HarbinBook POOL in #RealisticVirtualHarbin https://t.co/i6Sa6kcURf for LEARNING & SOAKING purposes? How best to add SUCH to 1 #RealisticVirtualEarth #RealisticVirtualEarthForGeology in Google Street View wi TIME SLIDER/Maps/Earth & Patch them? https://t.co/XooikTR4iS ...


Time to write some, interspersed by curling up with a good book :

Am enjoying poetry-wise Reedie (Reed College's) Gary Snyder's Tweets -

- as well as Nobel laureate Seamus Heaney's ...

What are you up to today, M?

L ove, Scott

Earthquake: Stanford Law Professor Hank Greely just re-Tweeted footage of the 1906 earthquake * * * After & Before 1906 earthquake? After (both): https://twitter.com/longnow/status/1197572479855804416?s=20 Before: . . . How best could I or you add this to 1 #RealisticVirtualEarth #RealisticVirtualEarthForGeology say in Google Street View with TIME SLIDER / Maps / Earth & Patch them together? * * * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_earthquakes_in_2019 * * * CURLED UP WITH A GOOD BOOK . . . And it will soon be possible to curl up with your smartphone in a Google cardboard viewer of virtual reality, and perhaps take these journeys without clicking a mousepad or similar ... so potentially with a brain wave headset built in ... :) . . . or visit realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs :)

Swahili languages esp. https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Swahili How best to develop @MITOCW-centric degrees @WorldUnivAndSch & wiki schools to CREATE CAREERS & benefit esp. Swahili coast speakers with these STEM, Engineering & Humanities' learning culture opportunities? (worlduniversityandschool.org)

How best in the Scottish Gaelic language https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Scottish_Gaelic_language to develop @MITOCW-centric degrees @WorldUnivAndSch & wiki schools to CREATE CAREERS & benefit Scots with these STEM, Engineering & Humanities' learning culture opportunities? @WilsonMcLeod (https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages)

The Desiderata . . . https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html ... seems a bit 'pangolin' like :) ...
re 'curled up with a good book' as 'keep peace in your soul?'
("And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.")

https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html


... and creating careers (academic too esp.) but here via 'big boxes' (stores) informed somehow by Ikea thinking:
re "Keep interested in your own career, ... "
("Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.)"
