So what's the 'culture' idea here in contemporary and understandable words ? ... something about a kind of vision for a better world that for me emerges out of the 1960s and '70s (may be in aspects of unprogrammed Friends as well for me) ... and which even significantly changed the course or law and legal history in this country and around the world ... a kind of 'communitas' in society-cultural processes ... :)
For you?

Here Come the Prose Police
Why academic writing
gets a bad rap.

philosophy of writing?

https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy
and the visual
The visual ?
metaphorically as writing with new approaches to a visual syntax? ...
The implicit message of a well-written sentence is not “this is the form an insightful claim must take,” but “this is a form that an insightful claim might take, although hardly the only one, much less necessarily the best one.” ... poetry?

Hi Ma, Ed and David,
Never thought about it this way, but re "tying the knot," perhaps the bowline knot is a good example, and re how David and I used to teach this even in the CYC even: "the rabbit goes up the hole, around the tree, and back down the hole again" ... but didn't think about it in new ways until just now. And Ma, I just found that Stanford Professor Scotty MacLennan, who is also a UU minister, and of Doonesbury fame, where he's the minister the Rev Scott Sloan, and I'm guessing that McLennan and the MacLeods overlapped in New Haven / Hamden CT as well - https://en.wikipedia.org/
You can see Stanford Prof. Scotty McLennan sitting behind Steve Jobs here -
Steve Jobs's Top 10 Rules For Success
https://youtu.be/eHzAtxW3TzY - as well as John Hennessy (and Donald Kennedy, I think, too, also a former Stanford president, across the aisle from McLennan, later in Steve Jobs' 2005 speech) in this INCREDIBLE Stanford commencement speech in its entirety at the end of this video. It's a fascinating video too for ideas for me for World Univ & Sch and also mentions Reed College. A lot of Steve Jobs' thinking emerges from the 1960s (and he looks like a hippy in a couple of the items above) ... and Jobs closes this speech by mentioning The Whole Earth Catalog, which I had just emailed you about yesterday (and posted here - https://scott-macleod.
I also just posted my weekly World Univ & Sch "Google My Business" with 2 photos (of Middletown, CA, high school, and it looks like possibly in 2016 with smoke in the air, although it may be before this during another fire - am not sure how to do the digital archaeology to find the date provenance of these photos, which probably exists) and writeup:
https://posts.gle/BgwjR

"Here's the beginning of the World University and School High School in English - planning online high school IB Diplomas - https://wiki.
I went ahead then to repost this on Twitter, and then unusually to FB, also messaging Reedie friend Candace Schaffer Lieber with this WUaS high school and college post, - and soon thereafter my computer shut down! Interesting to see what can be done remotely. I pressed the restart button, booted up again, and am making another new backup, having made a backup yesterday, and not needed it. Why and how? I don't know, but possibly hypothetically, because FB is watching its Google competition, ... (where WUaS is developing ... and re where WUaS too is planning to explore facilitating a single cryptocurrency in some number of ~200 countries and backed by their central banks - each a Wikidata Q-item where WUaS donated itself to Wikidata for co-development in 2015, planning for all 7.5 billion people on the planet, and distributed via Universal Basic Income experiments; FB is holding an event it appears in Stanford Law, the opening event of Stanford Law Silicon Valley Directors' Exchange, about which I texted you yesterday evening; see below ...).
Here's my text message from last night, M 14 Oct '19:
"Am reminded again, Ma, of the Scots' song "I'll take the high road and you take the low road and I'll be in Scotland afore ye" .. and just as an invitation from Stamford Law Silicon Valley Directors' Exchange arrived on my smartphone high up on beautiful Skyline Drive minutes ago. I probably won't go to this at this point - there may be some low goings ons at Stanford re this - but it's one of the places where I first met Alphabet chairman and former Stanford President John Hennessy, in September 2018. Nice tune:) how are you? :) "
But I may register for this nevertheless ... since I met Hennessy at a panel where Stanford Law Prof. Joe Grundfest was speaking, and he's doing this first panel of the season again this year as well ... (https://www.svdx.org/calendar/2019/11/7/november-morning-session) ...
May have been good, Ma, too, to have missed SSA Homecoming this year, and Bartley Griffith's installation as incoming President ... re getting his feet on the ground. He could be a helpful WUaS ally and even with regard to online high school IB Diplomas - https://wiki. worlduniversityandschool.org/ wiki/WUaS_International_ Baccalaureate_Diploma_and_ Programme - in many countries and languages, based on MIT OCW - https://ocw.mit.edu/high- school/more/for-students/- since 2007! This text message to you from the other day was the basis of my WUaS Google My Business' post today, actually.
Warm regards, Scott
