David,

Great to talk with you after Scottish Country Dancing last night. If WUaS were to have the $5000 to begin licensing with CA's BPPE in January 2020, what 10 organizations would we seek to partner with? And what's the problem they're facing (in these regards - ie what's their problem?), which WUaS could help them with?

And with regards to what you mentioned: A) Prison populations and online education, and B) Homeless populations and education, we'll all be able to wiki-add great online resources - open, free, highest quality, successful and creative (which prisoners and homeless create too) to the wiki side of WUaS - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects ...
and especially in all ~200 countries - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States 


So organizations WUaS would be interested in partnering with:

1) Stanford (and WUaS is already de facto through CC-4 licensing of MIT OCW, partnering with MIT, but WUaS would seek to partner much further with MIT in other ways)

2) MIT / Harvard

3) department of Education in California

4) department of Education in US

5) Scottish parliament (re free-to-students' MIT OCW-centric degrees to Scots in English, as well as eventually in Scots' Gaelic and possibly Scots too)

6) Quaker organizations? (FGC, NPYM, BYM, Quakers in Kenya, and on Swahili coast, especially to develop WUaS degrees in Swahili)

7) Google / Alphabet

8) IBM

9) Oxbridge

10) German universities / departments of Education

11) Japanese universities / departments of Education

12) Alphabet's / Stanford's / Duke's Project Baseline

13) Project ECHO

14) India

15) China

16) all ~200 countries (lack of free-to-student's MIT OCW-centric wiki highest quality online education may be some of their major problems)

17) organizations for each of all 7,111 known living languages (WUaS may have to create this:)

18) University of California, Berkeley and all 10 of the UCs.


I'm not sure what each of their problems are ... time to begin to seek out ways to talk with them.

Thanks.

Cheers, and happy thanksgiving, Scott

WUaS is also seeking to build a smart team, and re, for example - https://riahealth.com/team/ . Thanks too to Bob Nix for connecting in LinkedIn.

What do you guys think of Wikipedia founder's new social media network, WT:Social - I like the concept.

Hadn't heard about it until now - thanks, Scott.

Competition with FB? - https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-50460243 ... even an approach to fundraising? ... Possibly build the Wikipedia users in 300 languages into a social network?

World Univ & Sch is seeking to create a Wikidata Q-item for each of all 7.5 billion people, brainstorming-wise, having donated WUaS to Wikidata (which is Wikipedia's "back end" structured knowledge database, and in Wikipedia's ~300 languages) in 2015 and received WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki in 2017 as a 'front end.' Not clear whether https://twitter.com/hashtag/WikidataQitem?src=hashtag_click will be a social network, - but for 4 reasons presently; see WUaS Annual Meeting Minute #2 - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/arabian-sand-gazelle-minutes-for-annual.html. See too the UBI label here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/UBI - for ex.

Will check out WT:Social further.

Thanks, Scott

to me, Koh, Ants

Scott, perhaps set up an account and start working with some of your contributors? Let me know what you and they think of the service. Thanks.



*
Scot, WUaS doesn't have any contributors to speak of whatsoever yet, unfortunately. Our budget is so tight, and first goal is to license with CA's BPPE ... and as we do build out 'You at World Univ and Sch' - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University (conceptually for 7.5 billion people) and connecting this 'You at WUaS 'front end' with Wikidata Q item #s as 'back end' - for first 500-2000 matriculating undergraduates for free to students' online Bachelor's degree class in English re MIT OCW. Thanks, Scott


*
Scot,

WUaS donating WUaS to Wikidata for co-development was a ginormous donation in itself .

Re fund raising am curious about Chris Mohr, Princeton graduate, and former clerk of SF Quaker Meeting - https://twitter.com/chrismsf/status/1196991795781128192?s=19 - now living in Philadelphia area, with both kids going to Quaker schools, and both parents - he and Robin - 'professional Quakers' (ot's an ethic I appreciate too). He's very smart, centered, and there's also potentially much money to be raised fundraising-wise at WUaS, and a 10% fund raising facilitation opportunity as well.

Cheers,
Scott

Great to talk with you after Scottish Country Dancing in Berkeley last night, David.

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 :

Stanford Law Professor Hank Greely just re-Tweeted footage of the 1906 earthquake here - https://twitter.com/longnow/status/1197572479855804416?s=19 ... (https://twitter.com/HankGreelyLSJU/status/1197790206637703168?s=19).

From the very Long Now folks ...

Could lead to prolonged eElectricity outage today!

Hi Peter, Patti and All,

Newly got a 'bounce back' to your email address, Peter, in emailing all of you this morning from sgkmacleod@gmail.com, so am trying from here where I usually don't get 'bounce backs' from your email (in case of electricity outage emergency, for example, - and you being in central Europe)

Blogged about patching together a before and after the 1906 SF earthquake in Google Street View - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/earthquake-after-before-1906-earthquake.html - for learning and safety purposes too ...

Cheers, Scott

curled up with a good book



Hi Ma,

I curled up with a good book, after sitting in meditation this morning (enjoyably!) ...

'Communication Power' by Manuel Castells, it still is - the good book, that is

... and curled up with it under warm covers, departing from another often practiced process of getting to work on my computer (having sent out WUaS Annual Meeting Minutes yesterday - a kinda big job)

... on with writing my next book here . . . "To the Dance of the Pools? ~ Virtually! ... " ... and on the TV screen in my living room, which never shows any TV, but I rather keep viewing on it beautiful images from Google TV, both natural and urban ... and which make me wonder how far we are from Google making a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs, so that we all can make virtual Harbin, - and for virtual reality visiting ... (and then perhaps later with ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy! ... https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy ) :)

Love, Scott


Funnyman John Cleese (of Monty Python renown) again - https://twitter.com/JohnCleese/status/1197580125061238785?s=20 :

"With the appallingly low level of honesty in the UK election campaign, I think the only choice for me is to vote for the Greens

Unless David Attenborough decides to stand"

(Attenborough is a bit of an old hippy as well ... and a bit green too ... well, an old green man out of British depths of green-man culture :))

And I just did a switcho-change-o to the Green Party - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/10/nelumbo-nucifera-to-refract-to-make.html - (appreciating too its ecological platform, and that it's more of an international group than other US ones, not that it matters much in California) ...

Love,

David Attenbourgh's profile here -  https://twitter.com/AttenboroughSir - is very funny :) ... speaking of British green-men funnies (no, no not martians:)


('I walked towards this screaming horde of cannibals, I stuck out my hand, and I heard myself say... "fancy a quickly".' ;)

Hi M,

From the WUaS Minutes, and in particular this Google link - https://local.google.com/place?id=13580134555851014887&use=posts&lpsid=792871498435883844 - I 'teleported' into Google Street View to Ridgecrest Road down the lane a bit from where I lived, and 'walked' in Google Street View 6/10ths of a mile almost to the post office, but couldn't turn right past the garden to go down the last tiny stretch due to the I.T. Then I searched in Street View on Canyon PO 94516, and 'teleported' there, and then walked all the way up 6/10 of a mile to where I live ... it's a bit of a mirage, since there aren't quite enough 'tiles' of photos to show me what I want, or what I look for, but cool nevertheless.
A report from journeying from home in Street View with time slider. (And while Street View said it was April 2019 throughout my 'walk,' my old Toyota Prius was in the driveway ... which made me think it was inaccurate, but could well after all be accurate).

You can make these journeys too - https://www.google.com/maps/uv?hl=en&pb=!1s0x808f880dea6bfff9%3A0xbc76546d8b81c2e7!3m1!7e115!4s%2Fmaps%2Fplace%2FWorld%2BUniversity%2B%2526%2BSchool%2F%4037.8345399%2C-122.1633653%2C3a%2C75y%2C228.03h%2C90t%2Fdata%3D*213m4*211e1*213m2*211sTI0JJ49hw2wBQ92y54FeUA*212e0*214m2*213m1*211s0x808f880dea6bfff9%3A0xbc76546d8b81c2e7%3Fsa%3DX!5sWorld%20University%20%26%20School%20-%20Google%20Search!15sCAQ&imagekey=!1e2!2sTI0JJ49hw2wBQ92y54FeUA&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjSpofx6v7lAhWUsZ4KHaW0DTMQpx8wE3oECAsQCw ... and by searching too in Street View on the Canyon Post Office 94516

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 ...  :)

... and maybe even 'walk through' the 1906 San Francisco earthquake as it's happening in Google Street View with TIME SLIDER / Maps / Earth - and for learning purposes as well :) ... or visit realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs :) . . .   http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg (~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ~)

Tym,

Yemen from Riyahd! Wow... good luck with the deescalation coaxing! Oregon is a favorite band as well ... and the place too especially - in the early '80s and with you!
 . . .

4th Harbin inspired book due out soon, 3rd of poetry! Missing our visit to Harbin -

https://twitter.com/HarbinBook/status/1197557811254681600?s=19 ... with a Tweet about this wee earthquake:
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/arabian-sand-gazelle-minutes-for-annual.html?m=0 ... and many other creative Harbin Tweets! )

Lots of love and hugs, and warmly, Scott
