Sweden World Univ & Sch in Swedish


Thanks, Maggie (and John)! 


And very nice to meet you. 

Regarding an #ActualVirtual, #Physical-Digital realistic virtual universe, brainstomring-wise re the payload and co-load words you used, here's the #Hashtag link again to a Realistic Virtual Universe - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualUniverse?src=hashtag_click. Perhaps one good way to understand this is in terms of Lego Robotics in a realistic virtual earth for Lego - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualEarthForLego?src=hashtag_click - where World Univ & Sch is an authorized USA carrier of the 3 Lego Robotics' kits, and potentially in a #RealisticVirtualUniverseForLego so that anyone could make PHYSICAL Lego Robotics, and even send them virtually on the Mars 2030s mission into outer space as VIRTUAL Lego robotics. See too - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualEarthForRobotics?src=hashtag_click. And here's a great picture of the Universe with some related #Hashtags - 
https://twitter.com/WUaSPress/status/1389063166177415170?s=20 - re the potential here. For the realistic virtual universe, think Google Street View with TIME SLIDER, Maps, Earth, and TensorFlow AI - with realistic avatar bots, aka artificial humans, and with #AvatarBotElectronicMedicalRecords - https://twitter.com/hashtag/AvatarBotElectronicMedicalRecords?src=hashtag_click - and all at the cellular and atomic levels too, beyond the street view level. World Univ & Sch is seeking to facilitate all of this also as STEM field sites, and classrooms - and in online teaching hospitals (in our planned online Medical Schools in ~ 200 countries' main languages) - where anyone could wiki-add resources, such as photos or videos, or code to TensorFlow AI in a process I'm calling ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy, like ethnography (an interpretative practice, wiki which allows for quick curation, and group-buildable virtual worlds, like Second Life, but realistic, not cartoon-esque - and in the Google Cloud too)! Here are some related ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy links -  https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - and -  http://www.scottmacleod.com/research-group.html

This Mars Perseverance Youtube video popped up on my smartphone after the Stanford Volvo meeting closed this morning - 
AAA
https://youtu.be/gL6rVpKniyY - with beautiful and remarkable videography of Mars. How would we (I or you) add this to a SINGLE realistic virtual universe for space exploration (think Google Street View with time slider)?

Maggie, I was able to set up MS Teams with my scottmacleod100@hotmail.com email address, although I'm using this sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org (in WUaS G-Suite for Education) for communications. Looking forward to tomorrow's meeting at 7am Pacific Time, and thank you!

All the best, Scott


By way of introduction, here's the email I sent to John recently -

Dear John, Thanks for sharing this with me - 

By way of further introduction, here's the email I sent to John the other day - 

Stanford 
ME310 Global Team Volvo "Edge Talk Prep" Meeting (With OTTER.AI: ) 
Tuesday, June 1, 2021 at 8am - 8:30 (... NOT ... 3:00 PM-3:30 PM)

I only know Larry Leifer on the list a bit. What's the focus, and how could CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School, planned in 200 countries for free-to-students' online degrees - Bachelor, PhD, Law, MD and IB High School - and in their official and main languages (as well as in 7139 known living languages as wiki schools for open teaching and learning, like Wikipedia a bit) help? Check out the Mechanical Engineering wiki subject page - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Mechanical_Engineering - with MIT OCW eventually for credit, and potentially in a #RealisticVirtualEarthForSTEM - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualEarthForSTEM?src=hashtag_click - in 1  #RealisticVirtualEarth (and think Google Street View with time slider, Maps, Earth, TensorFlowAI - and at the cellular and atomic levels too).

Regards, 
Scott
Seeking to build an #ActualVirtual #PhysicalDigital Harbin Hot Springs as ethnographic field site further with time - 
and as STEM field sites, and classrooms for everyone, and a new STEM and social science theory and method I'm developing: ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy ...  http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy ~

Thanks, Scott

Dear Christian and Joakim, (Maggie and John),

Very nice to meet you this morning (SF Bay Area, Pacific Time). Here are the emails I shared with John and Maggie regarding a single Actual-Virtual, Physical-Digital Realistic Virtual Universe for everything, and much more. See you tomorrow.

World Univ & Sch is somewhat #ActualVirtual, #PhysicalDigital centric - https://twitter.com/hashtag/ActualVirtual?src=hashtag_click - for STEM research sites, and as classrooms, and as a ginormous data project at street view, cellular and atomic/molecular levels in one realistic virtual cosmos emerges. 

Best, Scott
PS
Brainstorming-wise further, here is the beginning of Sweden World University and School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Sweden - planned in the Swedish language with free-to-students' WUaS CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare courses and degrees in Swedish too .

WUaS Nation_States' Universities - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States - planned in all ~200 countries (per Olympics) as major online universities, and in these countries' main or official languages 

Languages, regarding wiki schools in these, - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages - planned in all 7,139 known living languages as wiki schools for open teaching and learning

Wiki Subjects or 'schools' - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects - both academic, and open or creative, for open teaching and learning, again planned in Swedish too; check out some of the CC-4 MIT OCW courses on the Aerospace_Engineering wiki subject, for example - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Aerospace_Engineering - which will eventually be for credit toward free degrees, - and to see how World Univ & Sch works in a sense.

Cuttyhunk island, Massachusetts ~ new proposed windmill project ~ and its past windmill projects, since the 1970s


Hi Tim, and All,


Thanks so much for your Windmills near Cuttyhunk reply just now in LinkedIn - 

Hi Scott-
 
I won't pretend to know about all the particulars, but the site maps I see put the project well off our shores (the other side of the Vineyard, mostly). I can't think of any impact it would really have on any of the islands, other than cosmetic. As a species, we are not in a position to be turning down viable clean energy projects these days. We have the wind for it. If the argument is that there will be windmills on our distant horizon, I am sorry to say, that seems a very NIMBYish position for which I don't have a lot of tolerance (remember the thing was shelved for a while because the hoity-toities on the other islands couldn't bear the slightest marring of their precious views). Obviously there could be aspects I'm not considering, and I hope smarter people than I will consider all aspects, but I am strongly in favor from what I know now.
 
Best to you,
 
-TTS


. . . and in reply to my LinkedIn message to you from May 17 - 

Hi Tim, Nice to hear from you. What do you think about this newest windmill proposal in the Vineyard Sound - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/05/patagonian-cypress-fitzroya-pulling_12.html ? Cheers, Scott (See you in July?:)


One additional question comes to mind, and since the prevailing winds on Cuttyhunk are from the South West: will Cuttyhunk be directly downwind of a possible (deafening in a strong wind) windmill factory machinery noise for the next few decades until quieter newer turbines can come along and replace these? How could Cuttyhunk come to know this beforehand - and from engineers from the state of Massachusetts' Department of Environmental Protection, as well as possibly independent engineers - and possibly in the Cuttyhunk POND in particular? 

All the best, Scott



Hi Cuttyhunkers, 


Everyone walking around Cuttyhunk with ear protection devices for the next few decades, even in a great-for-sailing 12-knot lovely summer wind? 

"Life jackets and ear protection devices must be worn when out sailing in Cuttyhunk Yacht Club boats" ? :)
