How best to explore this in a realistic virtual universe - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualUniverse?src=hashtag_click -think Google Street View with time slider, Maps, Earth, TensorflowAI?


... and with robotics, for example, and specifically, Actual-Virtual Lego robotics -

https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/status/1320081391581753345?s=20 (in Google Street View for virtually ... ) ?



​(a realistic virtual earth for species too, eg - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualEarthForSpecies?src=hashtag_click & eg https://twitter.com/TheOpenBand/status/1367587550274015232?s=20)


​(In building out a realistic virtual universe digitally, it might be possible to solve, and develop certainty about, this, Marcelo)


How could a single #realistic virtual Universe for STEM -at the atomic, molecular, cellular and Street View levels - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualUniverseforSTEM?src=hashtag_click help?


Will seek to add recording of this great panel to the Sailing wiki subject at MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch -https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Sailing + see, too /Subjects Thanks!


One (1) Actual-Virtual realistic virtual universe for everything since beginning of time-think Google Street View with time slider -would be a vast data project involving unfolding technologies re this trip

Hi Ma, John, Jim, Peter, Gerd, Henry, Ed, Larry, Mark, Taylor, Joan, 

I hope this finds you all well. I blogged a bit about this thread 2 days' ago - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/04/vernal-pool-lake-county-email-george.html - but without most of the pictures. In yesterday's blog post - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/04/alpha-centauri.html - am curious how also to explore a related Breakthrough approach, in thinking about getting to the very distant Alpha Centauri (thanks to Harvard/ MIT Professor of Genetics' George Church), - to creating free universal highest quality education, for all 7.8 billion people on the planet, and in all 200 countries, and as speakers of all 7,139 known living languages - in World Univ & Sch. Free universal education, like aging reversal drug therapies (per George Church), is within reach!

Joan and John, is this the George Kidder (from a 1992 UVM interview) I've heard you talk often about - https://www.alumni.uvm.edu/s/1690/alumni/index.aspx?sid=1690&gid=2&pgid=1080 - and who matriculated at the University of Vermont in 1918 (from which Henry recently graduated)? He and this video interview are interesting models for MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch even.

Further, in what ways might it be possible to explore too the breakthrough innovations in getting to Alpha Centauri quickly (and even regarding REAL REAL TIME MUSIC-MAKING via the web) to creating a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs for Actual-Virtual ethnographic comparative field work, and STEM research, including brain science (with people wearing headbands in the Harbin warm pool, both, iteratively, 1) getting neural data from individuals' brains - say about meditation and enjoyment neurally - and also 2) transmitting this data via fast wireless into avatar bots of you and I in a single realistic virtual earth / Harbin? :)

The open Bay Area Stammtisch meets on Saturday, 4/17/21 at 10:30 am Pacific Time again for those who might be interested in Google Meet video conferencing, and here's the link (in the English or the German language) - meet.google.com/fzi-jamh-qrq - (and ALSO with an invitation to open hour long WUaS Monthly Business Meeting on 4/17/21 too, at 9am Pacific Time in Google Meet here - meet.google.com/ywy-yfft-awu).

Warm regards, Scott
