Thanks very much for your faculty application for the Program in Media Arts and Sciences at MIT Media Lab. We have reviewed your application and we regret that we are not able to offer you a position. We wish you the best for your future plans. -Program in Media Arts and Sciences Massachusetts Institute of Technology sent this message in reference to your application for Assistant Professor-Media Arts and Sciences.

I'm sorry to write, I just learned, that I did not get the tenure track MIT Media Lab junior faculty position.

Thank you very much for writing a recommendation for me. 

I'm glad to write, however, that World University and School is officially "forking" around these 14 planned revenue streams - http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html - in terms of all countries' main languages and in terms of all 7943 languages - and is filing the For-Profit legal papers for this in UC Berkeley Law course this autumn (for the second semester). 

Thank you again for writing the Media Lab recommendation for me. 

Sincerely, Scott

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the update - and sorry to hear the news - but you tried and that counts for a lot in my books.

We all need wear multiple hats these days, and creating courses that we teach that students want to learn about is a good think to have in your hip pocket when applying for faculty positions.

Ji,

Thanks very much for your email. I hope my applying to teach at MIT supports my getting World University and School started (where I hope to teach as well) financially, as the "Harvards of the Web" in all 200 countries' main languages for free CC Uni and high school degrees, and as wiki schools in all 7,943 languages. 

I received the email from MIT right after attending another Stanford Law Silicon Valley Directors' Exchange meeting this morning where impressive Stanford Law Professor Joe Grundfest (MSc Program-London School of Economics 1972, BA Yale University 1973, JD Stanford Law School 1978, Doctoral studies (economics) Stanford University 1975-78) - who seems to see law as a thinking endeavor - was the moderator. He was around Yale and Stanford it seems from 1969-1978, interesting times at both places, alternative-culturally. I.T.-culturally, too, I wonder about the timing of such email processes and re CC WUaS's CC MIT OCW-centricity in 7 languages and CC Yale OYC-centricity envisioning and planning. 

Have you seen MIT's Ed Boyden's ~ minute-long seeming reference to what WUaS is doing at 15:50 here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/09/orchid-bee-euglossini-wuas-alluded-to.html - at the top? Check out the slide in this video at the 15:55 minute mark -https://youtu.be/18jZDVuiAOM?t=15m55s - bringing together a) universities (some 800 years old) which don't scale very well (per Ed) WITH b) for-profit tax forms (e.g. per Ed, such corporations can scale huge very well, but are may be less open than academic settings) WITH c) non-profit organizations which can scale better than universities, per Ed, and maybe have different time horizons than for-profits - all in one slide. WUaS hopes to do this, and in collaboration with CC MIT, CC Yale and other greatest universities.   

My major disappointment, however, with not getting the MIT position is my ongoing serious p... , since it's not obvious at all when WUaS will become financially operational. (I enjoy teaching the "Network Society and Information Technology, and the Global University" a lot, and have taught this course for many years. I'm also looking forward to teaching a course re actual-virtual Harbin, ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy and building a realistic virtual earth for STEM research and as a field site).

As WUaS files the WUaS For-Profit papers in the UC Berkeley Law course, WUaS has been developing the Business Model Canvas, one of which main fields invites WUaS to "paint" in our partners. So far, I've added Wikidata (in 358 languages), Google (in 100 languages), the University of California (for its linguistic diversity, as well as its high achieving student bodies) and Berkeley Law. Would it be alright with you if I add ISSIP please, as well as mention ISSIP's IBM, Cisco and HP support? 

Thank you, again, for writing the recommendation for me.

Thank you, Scott

Hi Scott,

You are a member of ISSIP - so you can surely add ISSIP to your network reference that you leverage.

Petals: A long term approach to "How to grow our Wikimedia technical community" via collaboration possibly with World University and School, which donated itself to Wikidata last October 2015

Hi Wikitechans, Quim (and Lea and Lydia), 

I'd be interested in possibly making a presentation or similar at the Wikimedia Developer Summit 2017 on a long term approach to "How to grow our Wikimedia technical community" via collaboration possibly with World University and School, which donated itself to Wikidata last October 2015.  

CC World University and School would like to offer a single course in collaboration with organizations like Wikimedia, and explore guaranteeing a part time job probably at the college intern (10 hours/week jobs for 20 year olds) level. (By way of comparison, Sebastian Thrun's Udacity offers a money-back guarantee for some nano-degrees if they don't get a job in collaboration with some business - which is quite unusual in the US). 

In addition to this single WUaS "Technical - Data Analytics" course (perhaps in the vein of Google's Summer of Code, learning programming while working on a project) which could significantly help "[Wikitech-l] How to grow our technical community - Wikimedia Developer Summit," since Wikimedia could hire them, and also especially since WUaS would like to offer this course in all countries' main languages (and possibly so that students can circulate back into and through WUaS for free CC MIT OCW-centric Uni degrees, for increasing their technical skills). WUaS would also like to explore helping grow the Wikimedia Technical Community through the following eventually:

- matriculated computer science, AI and other students at WUaS (in all countries' languages +)

- WUaS graduates (Bach and Ph.D.) with degrees in CS, AI and related (in all countries' languages+)

- online WUaS wiki students and teachers in all 7,943+ languages

What single course in, say, Wikimedia main programming languages, and perhaps drawing on MIT OCW, would you think would be most relevant to helping Wikimedia? 

Just added this "(Organize a course, possibly CC MIT OCW-centric in 7 languages, which upon completion would lead to a Wikimedia technical job, and potentially in collaboration with MIT OCW-centric & Yale OYC-centric CC WUaS, planned in all countries' languages for free CC university degrees, and where WUaS donated to Wikidata last October 2015)" to
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Developer_Summit/2017/How_to_grow_our_technical_community. 

This could be a way to help significantly grow the Wikitech/Wikimedia technical communities. 

Thoughts? 

Best, Scott

Llama: WUaS as growth story for the Internet, Wikidata and much else, Archaeology and all languages, A realistic virtual earth with TIME SLIDER for STEM researchers to add their data - conceptually like Google Street View/Maps/Earth with TIME SLIDER with OpenSim for group building, but with much much more precision, and so scientists can wiki add their own computer modeling, and in all 8k languages, and at the cellular, molecular and nano levels too - drawing on and querying from Wikidata

Hello L, L and D!

Thanks for your email, L. 

I ordered a 23 cm (9 inch) round chocolate cake with raspberries on it yesterday which will have written on it - "Happy 4th Birthday Wikidata SF" - and which I'll pick up in Berkeley before the Wikidata 4th birthday party in SF on W October 26th. 

I hope WUaS can potentially open for student applicants with a CC MIT OCW-centric course catalog in all 7 languages (and CC Yale OYC-centric too) -  emerging out of Wikidata - and beginning in January at the WikiDev 2017 conference, and that WUaS can explore collaborating with a team of multilingual Wikidata coders, programmers and wiki developers in the process after this. What might be the best ways to communicate further about this, please? 

WUaS seeks to become a growth story for Wikidata and the Internet as well - with plans for wiki schools in all 7,943+ languages and much more. 

L, L and D, WUaS is currently in a UC Berkeley Law "New Business Practicum" course for a second semester, and exploring forking WUaS into 2 wings re revenue around Creative Commons. How best to talk about this with you at Wikidata as well? 

Looking forward to the Wikidata birthday parties next week! Happy 4th Birthday, Wikidata! :)

Thank you!

Best, S

Hi Ian and Wikidata, 

Great, Ian and Arc.heolo.gy!

To complement your efforts, WUaS, which donated WUaS to Wikidata a year ago, seeks to develop a realistic virtual earth with TIME SLIDER for STEM researchers to add their data - conceptually like Google Street View/Maps/Earth with TIME SLIDER with OpenSim for group building, but with much much more precision, and so scientists can wiki add their own computer modeling, and in all 8k languages, and at the cellular, molecular and nano levels too - drawing on and querying from Wikidata. (See - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/10/organisms-at-high-altitude-how-will.html - and http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/10/cetonia-aurata-how-many-further-ways-we.html). D.K. has responded to a couple of related WUaS "Troy"-example posts in this Wikidata-l email list, as well. 

Best,

Organisms at high altitude: How will data science move toward real, real time - for, for example, a) ensemble music making, and b) a realistic virtual earth e.g. for real, real time brain research at the 1) street view, 2) neuronal (cellular) and 3) nano (atomic) levels - with regard to the focus of your talk - disparate data sources?, Found Purdue's Mohammad Sadoghi's replies after his IBM Cognitive Systems (CSIG) talk to my questions above very helpful, which were something like: a) Selective integration of the whole of the system, b) Active pathways within the whole of the system, Daniel, in a related vein and conceptually, how would you model elevation change over time (e.g. in a Google Street View/Maps/Earth with TIME SLIDER, conceptually, for example) with Wikidata, building on the example you've already shared? For example if one wanted to use Wikidata to model the 9 levels or 46 sublevels of Troy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troy)

Yesterday at 8:30am

As a good "hippie", I was often dismayed by the sadly long "DNA" (Do Not Admit) list at Harbin, thinking that those troubled troublemakers who made the list were the ones most in need of the love and the healing that Harbin had to offer. But their exclusion from Harbin "society" was not about hate or anyone's (management's) opinion of them, it was their inharmonious impact in the rest of the Harbin population that prompted their expulsion from "The Garden." Similarly, we can send love and healing to Trump and Clinton while, at the same time, protecting our society by strongly objecting to what they stand for and by doing everything we can to limit their destructive influence on it. A "good hippy" is not only a lover but a fighter.... for justice, progress and the greater good. As a famous Vulcan once said. "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one."

Besides a 15 foot cubed augmented reality "classroom" and STEM field site in all 8k languages, and for digital libraries and museums, in each of all 8k languages (which I've explored in this blog before)  - like Google Street View with TIME SLIDER with OpenSim, but more precisely, and for group building and scientists wiki adding of their own computer modeling, I wonder how many further ways we could use a 15 foot cubed augmented reality "classroom" AROUND us?


Here are some possibilities:


~ Digital humanities' project

~ Digital history around us from film/news, and back to archaeological evidence from 3700 years' ago - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/05/hathor-excellent-stanford-talk.html (Design convert-film-into-3D-virtual-world application - for digital history+ )

~ Digital stage set / opera space / rock stage

~ Digital hospital / operating room

~ Digital brain at atomic (nano), molecular and neuronal (cellular) levels (vis-a-vis the Connectome project and Tom Dean's modeling, for example)

~ Digital galaxy for scientific space travel

~ Digital store (any place of commerce on earth)

~ Digital ecosystem

~ A film production set

~ Synthetic biology/evolutionary biological laboratory which could give form to virtual species that are being developed out of old DNA ...

~ Archaeological sites for STEM researchers (and tourists) through time in a realistic virtual earth with TIME SLIDER in all languages (see, too - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/10/organisms-at-high-altitude-how-will.html)

~ A way to travel to the a 1968 Grateful Dead concert and be in the middle of it, and then with time slider to travel to a 1978 show, all by adding Youtube videos and converting them to avatars and augmented reality ...

Hi M,

How are you? Fascinating Stanford neuroscience conference on Thursday - https://events.stanford.edu/events/580/58095/ (https://twitter.com/StanfordBrain). Researchers are creating remarkable understandings of what goes on in the brain at nano (atomic), molecular and neuronal (cellular) scales. Tony Wyss-Coray's work with blood transfusions from young mice to old mice has far-reaching implications for memory and longevity - https://www.ted.com/talks/tony_wyss_coray_how_young_blood_might_help_reverse_aging_yes_really?language=en - eventually using plasma. Was very glad to meet Stanford Professor and Institute Director Bill Newsome - https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/william-newsome - of Stanford Neuroscience Institute https://neuroscience.stanford.edu/people/executive-committee and Google's Tom Dean working on the Human Connectome Project - http://www.humanconnectomeproject.org and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Connectome_Project and https://www.neuroscienceblueprint.nih.gov/connectome/ - in particular, who is also a professor at Brown University (and Stanford). I also found Helen M. Bronte-Stewart, MD, MSE's work on Parkinson's disease fascinating (https://med.stanford.edu/bronte-stewart-lab/members.html) re T. Hoping to further network with these folks re modeling a realistic virtual earth/BRAINS and at the same scales, but also at the Street View level - so like Google Street View with TIME SLIDER with OpenSimulator for group building, and in all 8k languages.

(WUaS could facilitate the datasets in Wikidata in all 8k languages, as well as the datasets of brain connectivity at the nano, molecular, neuronal and street view levels (in addition to datasets for modeling the cosmos: "the current estimate now stands at more than 2 trillion galaxies: more than 10 times what was previously known: http://on.forbes.com/60128BtSY" https://twitter.com/SciForbes/status/787193796639490052).

Here's a talk in a Unitarian Universalist church by George Lakey, a Quaker and a professor at Swarthmore - "George Lakey Explains the Benefits of Scandinavian Economics"- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kfMWbfa-Us. I enjoy George a lot, heard him in SF about 3 years ago, and he's somehow both good and inspiring. I posted this here - https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/status/787044549306658817. There are some implications for my World University and School in this talk as well.

Hi M,

Glad to have received an email from Prof Bill Kell and his students yesterday that they are sending an intake memo today. This ia an official paperwork step re World University and School as For-Profit in this "New Business Practicum" UC Berkeley course for the second semester in a row (which I'll probably also put on my CV and which could lead to finances). About the time yesterday that I received his email, Media Lab director Joi Ito also posted an interview with someone with a Muslim name (possibly a MIT student), which I re-posted to this G+ Profile -  https://plus.google.com/+InfoWorldUniversityinEnglish/posts/E7ChNtNk2wD (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWgkjjZr8ag) - who is actually the former head of digital currencies at the Bank of England, and a lawyer. Together they're thinking through implications of BitCoin, which is very relevant to my big project - especially with WUaS's plans of law schools in all countries' main languages. MIT seems to be in a driver's seat re this new currency, and England, which is one thing I learned from this video.

I've been beginning to work on a business model canvas re what Prof. Bill Kell handed me as I left his office about 2 weeks ago. We're feeling our way forward, step by step, in this startup all-languages' university and school process. After our two face to face meetings (one in his home and one in his office), Bill's email formalizes and focuses this process further.

George Lakey's talk - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kfMWbfa-Us - is actually a talk about his new book - in a UU church ... I wonder if I might I please explore giving a talk about my actual virtual Harbin book - http://bit.ly/HarbinBook - in the Pittsburgh UU First Church over Xmas, especially if I could also explore coming back a little early to finish work on my top back right tooth from a few years ago.

I hope to share possibly some of the videos and highlights from the brain/neuroscience conference at Stanford on Thursday - https://twitter.com/StanfordBrain - when the videos become available. In addition to fascinating and far-reaching basic research into all nano (atomic), molecular, neuronal (cellular) and behavioral (Street View) levels of the brain, there were interesting talks re memory, longevity ... and Parkinson's disease.

Music-making was fun playing for Scottish Country Dancers last night. Barbara S came back to play after 6 months away due to a back problem I'm glad to say!

Gas on stove went off yesterday, so I "soft boiled" my egg this morning in the microwave for 1 minute, which will take some getting used to, but it is probably cheaper than the stove.

Hope your weekend is fun.

L, Scott

The origin and meaning of female orgasm has occupied biologists and philosophers since the beginning of the study of life. The main problem is that female orgasm has no manifest roles in human reproduction but is nevertheless a complex physiological trait. Two of our speakers, Professor Gunter Wagner and Professor Mihaela Pavličev, propose that female orgasm is derived from a neuro-endocrine reflex that was necessary for ovulation but in primates lost its reproductive role. We shall also discuss the implications of our model for the understanding of so-called "orgasmic dysfunction." Professor Elisabeth A. Lloyd will serve as the respondent.
