Dear Victor, 

Happy Birthday Victor wherever you are!

Warm Yoga greetings from the mostly sunny SF Bay Area. I hope this finds you well in the New Year (& here's my Happy New Year letter again - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2026/01/mount-tamalpais.html). I found some of our previous communications on your birthday and see PSs below.

Happy birthday in Greece, the Netherlands, or teaching Yoga (with Angela?) somewhere around the world. 

Best wishes, abolitionally, Friendly Yoga regards, 
Scott 




PS

Am exploring teaching online restorative Yoga classes on Saturdays (and as we may live to 150 and well beyond:)  ... with aging reversal and extreme longevity genetic drug therapies emerging, FDA approved ... and a Yoga-Longevity genetics' developing conversation about this ... and with old hippie and Harvard and MIT professor of Genetics' George Church in the Harvard Medical School in this Yoga class and email conversation too (and see blog further here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Yoga & https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/longevity & https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/genes) ...

thank you dear Scott,
We did celebrate and we are now back to our quiet selves.
LOVE,

Dearest Victor, 

Warm greetings from the sunny, SF Bay Area. I hope this finds you well in the New Year, and celebrating, perhaps in Molyvos for a lovely meal. 

I'm posting below what I'm up to presently. 

Happy, happy birthday!

Love, 
Scott









For some up-to-date perspectives on my work, I've added my 500 word 'statement of work,' which I submitted to MIT, below, and you'll find here a video abstract and video talk I gave on actual / virtual Harbin Hot Springs last November 2012 at UC Berkeley - http://scottmacleod.com/papers.htm .

Thank you again!

Best wishes,
Scott




Please submit a statement about your work (max. 500 words):


I’m writing to apply for the MIT Media Lab faculty position focusing on 
learning and technologies. I concentrate on three main areas in my work:

a) Developing World University and School, - 
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University - which is like 
Wikipedia with MIT OCW, with free, online degrees planned, and as wiki-school in all 7,413+ languages and 205+ countries;

b) Writing an actual / virtual Harbin Hot Springs’ ethnography, with 3-4, further, Harbin books planned (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2012/12/hot-springs-by-river-three-subsequent.html ). I’m writing the eighth of nine chapters 
presently, and plan to create a virtual Harbin, for ethnographic fieldwork, and for comparison with on-the-ground Harbin, for subsequent books. I’ve written a number of papers about the World Wide Web in other contexts, particularly in terms of actual and online ‘place.’

c) Teaching about the sociology and anthropology of the Internet, 
particularly a course entitled “Society and Information Technology,” 
which I’ve taught on Harvard’s virtual island for 7 semesters, and 
vis-à-vis Manuel Castells’ Network Society research, in a variety of ways.


I’ll focus here now on World University. Wiki World University and School plans to be the MIT / Harvard of the internet in all 7,413+ languages and the 205+ countries, building on MIT OpenCourseWare, and offers not only remarkable, creative, Media Lab opportunities in its making, but also potentially extends MIT into all languages and countries online.

WUaS is also planning MIT OCW-centric, Creative Commons’ licensed, bachelor, Ph.D., International Baccalaureate, law and M.D. degrees, including online Medical (as well as an hospital) and Law Schools, accrediting on MIT OCW where possible, in many languages and countries, especially in the poorest parts of the world.

WUaS is planning an online Media Lab - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Media_Lab_at_World_University_and_School - in each language and country, and seeks to grow these with overachieving, creative, MIT Media Lab-like students.

WUaS is also planning a Universal Translator, building on Google Translate, etc., in part, but for voice, and thus creating unique and far-reaching A.I. and programming opportunities over the years ahead.

WUaS is also planning a Music School in all languages, and with all 
instruments, each a wiki, subject page to begin, with online teaching, 
learning and jamming possibilities.

WUaS plans to use the Conference Method of teaching and learning (like Reed College uses), but online, and engaging MIT OCW’s 2,142+ courses - e.g. 
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Conference_Method_of_Teaching_and_Learning .

WUaS presently has 539 wiki pages, the section headings of which we plan to copy, paste and translate into other languages, as we move from the current, Wikia wiki to the new, Creative Commons’ licensed Wikidata / Wikibase database.

As a concluding statement of my work, WUaS plans to create academic, information technology jobs for students at the Media Lab, for all of MIT, in many, many languages and countries, and also for students at other great universities, especially, where the Media Lab could become the organizational hub for extensive, knowledge-oriented, job generation, worldwide.

MIT OCW-centric degrees for overachievers in many languages and countries, with the MIT Media Lab at the center of all of this, will generate a remarkable, flourishing, STEM-centric, academic conversation.

Dear Victor,

I'm writing to wish you a very happy birthday.

 I'm looking here for a duet with a woman and to start a family here.
World University & School - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com - and my
actual / virtual Harbin ethnography are coming along.

How are you? I miss you here. You seem so distant - in a connected
yoga way. Hope to connect with you soon.

 Love,
Scotty

Dear Scott, do not worry.When you feel that I am distant, then that is true in a material way.
I am more in Greece than any where else.
Thank you for the birthday wishes. Another year older and deeper in bed.
Lots of love , Victor.
