Present:- Larry Viehland (World Univ and Sch Board Chair, and CFO)- Scott MacLeod (President, CEO, Professor, Founder, Presiding Clerk +)

Minutes -
0To seek and reach out to World University and School's second undergraduate class for the autumn of 2020, at licensing WUaS (with CA's BPPE), WUaS is seeking the initial $5000 in fees, and committed funding annually after this for both licensing and accreditation. WUaS seeks hereby too to become listed in High School Counseling Offices (see too - https://www.nacacnet.org/globalassets/documents/publications/research/hsls_counseling.pdf).
See the 6 Bachelor degree majors in the course catalog here - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VRHhXYsk-V9lvSh5onaU2hnEhwoapSN7HyBK1P09LIk/edit?usp=sharing (accessible from - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/) - including especially the 2 undergraduate MIT OCW-centric Engineering degrees in EECS and General Engineer (where WUaS will build upon this Engineering OCW - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/find-by-topic/#cat=engineering), as well as the Business (see: https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/sloan-school-of-management/) degrees.

0.iIn seeking to develop the WUaS high school international baccalaureate diploma - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/WUaS_International_Baccalaureate_Diploma_and_Programme - in all ~200 countries' official / main languages, WUaS seeks to collaborate with or create inspiring IB course ware online, and emerging both from MIT OCW High School - https://ocw-origin.odl.mit.edu/high-school/ - and which in part is potentially 'makey-makey,' possibly coding and gaming-centric, project based learning, builds on the conference method (Harkness table method - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harkness_table ?) and which cultivates critical thinking, from home. WUaS doesn't want to lose high school students from the beginning of their online studies.

1Financial reports -
There have been no changes since last last month (October 2019); please refer to those reports in your email box.
The annual financial report will be emailed in January, after the close of the WUaS Jan-Dec fiscal year.

1.iIn terms of reimbursement from Departments of Education in all ~200 countries, and 501 c 3's World Univ & Sch's revenue and business plan, WUaS is seeking comparable reimbursement to the following great universities' tuitions . . .
tuition at Stanford47,940 USD2016–17
tuition at UC BerkeleyIn-state 13,509 USD, Out-of-state 40,191 USD2016–17
tuition at MIT48,452 USD2016–17
And CC-4 MIT OCW-centric World Univ & Sch seeks to offer a world class online education education comparable to Stanford's and MIT's as WUaS accredits with the state of California's BPPE (Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education) - so as a private university, in the context of the US.
And, again, WUaS can use the MIT OCW name if we add these clarifications - see: worlduniversityandschool.org ...
"MIT OCW Creative Commons' licensing and endorsement clarifications:
a) MIT is not affiliated with, and does not endorse, World University and School b) MIT does not offer credit to WUaS students, and c) All MIT OpenCourseWare materials are available for free through http://ocw.mit.edu"
- so WUaS isn't entirely a 'no-name' startup university, and there's also a gold mine or motherlode of courses to grow from here in 5 languages as WUaS seeks highest achieving students online in all ~200 countries' main languages.

2Information Technology -ReYou at WUaShttps://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University
MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School (like Wikipedia in 300 languages with MIT OCW in 5 languages), in donating itself to Wikidata for co-development and having received WUaS Miraheze MedIaWiki as a consequence, is seeking to make them interoperable for online matriculating WUaS students, in 200 countries, and for volunteer editors, open wiki teachers and learners (or 'Universitians' at WUaS), so for speakers in each of all 7,111 known living languages ... and then potentially a Person item # or Qitem# for 7.5 billion people, conceptually.
Additionally, WUaS is seeking to plan for, brainstorming-wise, all 7.5 billion people for the following reasons:
All 7.5 billion people, each a Wikidata Q-item number for
i) wiki Universitians in 7,111 known living languages, and matriculated students in all ~200 countries,

ii) Avatar Bot Electronic Medical Records, with genetic therapies, and for molecular tele robotic surgery, for ex.,

iii) Universal Basic Income (UBI) experiments (and to alleviate poverty), and to DISTRIBUTE a single cryptocurrency backed by some number of ~200 countries' central banks (where the Euro is in 19 out of 28 EU countries, and backed by their central banks in one way or another)
... and potentially with UBI experiment recipients able, for example, to cryptocurrency "Mine Pi" as mineable single cryptocurrency, developed by Stanford graduates.

iv) a single family tree for genealogy research as in WikiTree (https://www.wikitree.com, and see too World Family Tree - https://www.geni.com/worldfamilytree), and for aggregating DNA samples too (see item 2 again).
In what ways could Wikdiata plan for all 7.5 billion people each a Wikidata Q-item # and for the above reasons and many more (and keeping in sync with Wikipedia's mission of "the sum of all human knowledge" where all 7.5 billion people generate this with their language, for example).

3Organizational structure for WUaS developments -
WUaS is two parallel legal entities, re questions of ownership as well:
aWorld Univ & Sch, a non profit 501 (c) 3 -C3289561 WORLD UNIVERSITY AND SCHOOLhttps://businesssearch.sos.ca.gov/

bWUaS Corporation, a for profit general stock company (with named CEO Julian Dumitrascu)C4018051 WUaS CORPORATIONhttps://businesssearch.sos.ca.gov/

... where both of these are planned in all ~200 countries' official languages, and in all 7111 known living languages (with machine translation too) ...

in addition to
i) Building on the WUaS Monthly Business Meeting organizational structure (see links to 2019 WUaS Minutes in Agenda)

ii) Seeking to move from writing as management style to Chief Operating Officer approach

iii) Seeking to code the WUaS web site - on A) Google platform in its ~100 languages with Translate, with B) best STEM CC-4 OpenCourseWare in its 5 languages, and in C) Wikidata's 300 languages, - and with licensing (BPPE) and accreditation (WASC senior?)

iv) seeking to develop financial processes in these regards

v) WUaS seeks to create 2.2 million jobs in all ~200 countries and 7111 known living languages.

4WUaS as startup will explore incubation by Schoolab SF International, a French entrepreneurial education innovation hub, further ...

Rosa chinensis: Schoolab San Francisco International - and incubating World Univ & Sch? * * * The 'gold mine' or 'mother lode' of Creative Commons' 4 licensed MIT OpenCourseWare (in its 5 languages), where CC-4 licensing says users can, with MIT OCW, A) share it, B) adapt it, C) but non-commercially, WUaS cannot ask for tuition from students - so online WUaS will be free-to-students - but WUaS will seek reimbursement from governments (eg federal, state, local, etc) per student per year; this could extend to all 29 French speaking countries
- https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/rosa-chinensis-schoolab-san-francisco.html -

5WUaS seeks to begin now in 2020 with BPPE Licensing - https://twitter.com/CaBPPE (& possibly WASC senior Accreditation)
World Univ & Sch is seeking $5,000 to begin licensing with the state of California's BPPE (Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education) in January, and annual fees for this, and for accreditation (potentially with WASC senior) too. WUaS is seeking to matriculate our 2nd online undergraduate class for free-to-students' CC-4 MIT OCW-centric Bachelor degrees (taking 4 years to complete) in the autumn of 2020, with online students from all ~200 countries first in English, and has had to postpone this licensing process this year, once already, due to lack of funding.

6Some WUaS highlights in this past year included
i)BPPE licensing workshop on 2/20/2019 - but WUaS still need $5000 to begin the licensing process, now in 2020

ii)Further developing in the Google Search / Google My Business / other Google platforms . . .
See, for example - https://local.google.com/place?id=13580134555851014887&use=posts&lpsid=792871498435883844 - here:

WUaS Corporation / WUaS Press

Minutes for November 16, 2019, 2019 WUaS Corporation Annual Board Meeting

AWUaS seeks to develop our online bookstore / computer store / robotics' store / hospital technologies store, with web site platform developments (see above) ... in ~200 countries and 7,111 living languages. See too, 14 planned revenue streams - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html

This will occur both Actually-Virtually, and Physically-Digitally, and includes the on-the-ground "Big Box" stores' idea in all ~200 countries.
And these may carry food as well with time, to attract people to them. (World University and School academics, including medical schools with online teaching hospitals still plan to be as much online and distributed as possible).

BThe WUaS Press's upcoming book is due out soon -http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html -

3:46 PM (1 hour ago)
to Byron, JoAnne, Scott, Jane, Bruce, Patti, Barbara, Peter, Janie, me, Alden, Gantt, Ed, Bruce, David, Heather, Ann, Alex, Jonathan, Linda, lovell

Hi Patti, Barbara, Heather, David and All,

Nice to see some of you last night at Scottish Country Dancing. And nice to play piano beside you, Patti ... a potentially good way to grow my piano playing. (Thanks too for putting the Beethoven book in my hand 2 weeks ago, Heather, and which I didn't see again last night).

Looks like power may be out again in Canyon 94516 tomorrow once again ... Received an email recently on the Canyon email list:

"Canyon will likely be included in the Public Safety Power Shutoff that is
scheduled to begin at
9am on Wednesday morning (11/20).

The National Weather Service has also issued a Red Flag Warning for the
East Bay from 4am Weds to 7pm Thursday."

Not clear how to interpret this, but there seem to be a lot of utilities' outages in Canyon, in general.

Glad too to talk with Scottish Country Dancer Dave Deacon and Chief Operating Officer of Ria Health in SF (with BSc physics and EE degrees from MIT, and a physics' Ph.D. from Stanford) and potentially about World University and School's online Medical Schools and online teaching hospitals, after SCD yesterday evening. Am posting my email I sent today, and two weeks ago below in these regards.

Power is still out for MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School ... and perhaps conversations with Dave will eventually help turn this on for WUaS.

I would welcome all of your thoughts too about growing World Univ & Sch, and with regards too to the Agenda and News from WUaS's Annual Meeting on Saturday (with Minutes to come):
- https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2019/11/annual-meeting-at-open-wuas-monthly.html

Keeping in touch too re the 8.0 Earthquake potential + ...

Sincerely, and SCD cheers, Scott

19 Nov 2019
Hi Dave,

Nice to talk last night after Scottish Country Dancing with you again.

Per your questions about 501 c 3's World Univ & Sch's revenue and business plan, I looked up

tuition at Stanford
47,940 USD
2016–17

tuition at UC Berkeley
In-state 13,509 USD, Out-of-state 40,191 USD
2016–17

tuition at MIT
48,452 USD
2016–17

And CC-4 MIT OCW-centric World Univ & Sch seeks to offer an online education comparable to Stanford's and MIT's as WUaS accredits with the state of California's BPPE (Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education) - so as a private university, in the context of the US. For this WUaS is seeking the $5000 fee potentially in January.

And WUaS can use the MIT OCW name if we add these clarifications - see: worlduniversityandschool.org

MIT OCW Creative Commons' licensing and endorsement clarifications:

a) MIT is not affiliated with, and does not endorse, World University and School b) MIT does not offer credit to WUaS students, and c) All MIT OpenCourseWare materials are available for free through http://ocw.mit.edu

- so WUaS isn't entirely a 'no-name' startup university, and there's also a gold mine or motherlode of courses to grow from here in 5 languages as WUaS seeks highest achieving students online in all ~200 countries' main languages.

And here are WUaS's 14 planned revenue streams (2016) - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html - and you'll see on the for-profit general stock company wing, the WUaS Corporation, a separate parallel legal entity - with both wings planned in ~200 countries' languages, and in all 7111 known living languages with machine translation - and much that investors would be interested in.

So how best to offer the quality of an online MIT or Stanford education to be able to seek reimbursement from departments of Education in all ~200 countries' official / main languages, and beginning with a Bachelor's degree in English, but potentially soon thereafter for Medical Doctor degrees in same - in order to offer free-to-students' degrees (thus making WUaS very competitive in many ways)? WUaS would thus be able to begin to be able to seek the additional $8,000 dollars that MIT and Stanford ask from students compared with out-of-state Cal students (and the ~$23,000 more per student per year compared with the in-state Cal tuition) provided we can offer highest-quality education newly online.

And could Ria Health's approach to telemedicine for alcoholism help further inform WUaS online medical schools/teaching hospitals in each of ~200 countries' main languages (Scotland as out-of-country test case?) ... in terms of quality (and re Stanford / Duke / Google's Project Baseline, and Project ECHO too)?

Looked up Project ECHO re alcoholism, and found:

https://dellmed.utexas.edu/blog/project-echo-seeks-to-improve-access-to-mental-health-care-for-everyone-everywhere

https://www.c4tbh.org/project-echo-extension-community-healthcare-outcomes-new-model-educating-primary-care-providers-treatment-substance-use-disorders/

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4873719/

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26848803

And, for my own information, here's Dr. Andy Weil's approach of many to alcoholism, aimed at readers (and not health care providers):
https://www.drweil.com/health-wellnes...

On the for-profit side, I suspect that your knowledge with regards to Ria Health could inform many hospital technologies in WUaS's planned Online<>On-the-ground robotics' / hospital technologies' stores, with partly a 'big box' model in all ~200 countries' too.

Here's the Agenda and News from WUaS's Annual Meeting on Saturday (with Minutes to come), with MUCH more in the above regards:
- https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2019/11/annual-meeting-at-open-wuas-monthly.html

- https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/rosa-foetida-annual-meeting-at-open.html

... with potentially enormous numbers of potential alcoholic patients re Avatar Bot Electronic Medical Records planned brainstorming-wise at WUaS for all 7.5 billion people on the planet.

(Am in communication with both Stanford Law Prof Roland Vogl, and Stanford Medicine Chair Bob Harrington MD with regard to WUaS Medical Schools, and WUaS Law Schools, as well).

Looking forward to talking further potentially next week after SCD.

Sincerely, Scott

This might give you another idea of how WUaS is thinking in terms of MIT OCW and in other languages with regards to the IB degree:

5 Nov 2019

Hi Dave,

Since it looks like there's no SCD or Open Band music-making at St. Clement's due to Veteran's Day - and so we won't be able to talk then as you had suggested - I thought I'd email you now. I know your CMO, Jon, a little from some years ago. ...

From LinkedIn:
"Hi Dave, Nice to talk after SCD yesterday. FYI: beginning WUaS Med Schs & /Hospital https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool... & some thoughts about Projects Baseline & ECHO -https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/12/chiricahua-national-monument-projects.html -S"

Some thoughts came to mind with regards to what you told me about yesterday evening:

Brainstorming-wise, and with regards to successful interventions for your addiction and alcoholism patients, I wonder if you/RIA might be able to network with Project Baseline, and use getting your patients into a Project Baseline clinic IDEA, or similar, (your own clinics? ) to give their physical samples of blood, sweat, tears, saliva, stool, etc., and do a cardio exam in a clinic (or eventually even from home), where Project Baseline would then turn these physical samples into data ... to chart a path way to health for them. This is the idea behind Project Baseline as I understand it but best to 'brush up' on your Project Baseline knowledge for yourself, from Youtubes or similar) ...

So if your patients could be 'incentivized' to change their drinking habits and by getting on a cardio machine (and to exercise) initially, in the name of contributing to science and a study, and get into the clinic too, they might be incentivized to change their alcoholic behavior - a kind of educational approach too - and then you might be able to show further results, and thereby help you get RIA into the value chain (ie financial reimbursement loops). Your Stanford and MIT links might help you find your way into openings in Project Baseline study, created by Alphabet / Google / Verily / Stanford / Duke University 10,000 person project / study (and Project Baseline may already be showing results among alcoholics - re data to show Anthem etc.).

More about Project Baseline and Project ECHO here from 2017 -
https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/12/chiricahua-national-monument-projects.html (and sprinkled throughout my active blog as well).

World University and School is envisioning our first online Medical School in English beginning about 4 years from now (after a CC-4 MIT OCW-centric Bachelor's degree class beginning in 2020, a first Ph.D. class beginning in 2021, a first law class beginning in 2022, and potentially a Med Sch class in 2023 - as WUAS licenses with the state of CA's BPPE.

Project Baseline in this WUaS actual-virtual physical-digital envisioning would become the online hospital (re its virtual or digital focus)- https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool... - brainstorming-wise, and even for genetic engineering therapies on corresponding-to-humans' avatar bots via avatar bot electronic medical records,

And since MIT itself doesn't have a Med School or a Law School, WUaS seeks to emerge out of Stanford Medicine and Law for OpenCourseWare for these schools in ~200 countries' official / main languages.

WUaS sees Project ECHO - think MD specialists to rural populations in group video with a mentoring aspect (like a GI doctor, a pharmacologist and a psychiatrist for Hepatitis C) - with a mentoring aspect in group video, as budding Medical Schools in group video - https://twitter.com/ProjectECHO - and I heard and met its founder, Sanjiv Arora MD (whose daughter went to Stanford) at a Stanford Medicine Grand Rounds' talk.

Here's an example of an early experimental genetic therapy for longevity ...

Harvard Medical School @harvardmed 4h
Scientists used a combination of 3 longevity-associated genes, delivered through a one-time injection, to dramatically improve or reverse multiple age-related diseases in mice (via @BostonGlobe)

https://twitter.com/harvardmed/status/1191802354271686657

... which could be seen as a surgical procedure even with regard to the needle insertion, and which could conceivably be done in such an online WUaS hospital by a tele-robotic surgeon, and even with regards to an actual-virtual, physical-digital realistic virtual earth at the cellular and atomic levels too for STEM and for tele-robotic surgery (something I'm heralding) ... and think Google Street View with time slider / Maps / Earth / TensorFlow and with group build-able Second Life with avatar bots, but realistic ones.

So with tele-medicine alcoholism approaches, and your company with its MD, entrepreneurial focus, and its legal relationship with the state of California, it would be interesting to explore further talking about how this could emerge as a part of the online hospital at WUaS, and also even as part of a medical course at World Univ & Sch in Med Schs in all 200 countries' official / main languages. What do you think about getting RIA into the value chain further by RIA networking with Project Baseline, brainstorming-wise?

Just some thoughts, and hope to talk further with you about this, perhaps at SCD in two Mondays.

Best, Scott

PS
re a realistic virtual earth, I'm thinking in terms of a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs, which is my actual-virtual ethnographic field site:

Visit the Harbin gate here and "walk" down the road "4 miles" to Middletown, and "amble" around the streets there ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ~

Have you ever visited Harbin?

IF NOT Wikidata Q-item # for 7.5 billion, then WUaS P-item # for all 7.5 billion people?

to Peter, Lydia, salgo60, ales, chris, MacLeod, Scott

Greetings, Aleš Trtnik, Magnus Sälgö, Chris Whitten, Lydia Pintscher, and All,

Aleš and Chris, Magnus in Sweden just shared your emails with me, and we've been talking about planning presumably for all 7.5 billion people per WikiTree planning for 'growing an accurate single family tree' (see, too - https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/user/Trtnik-2 ) and MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School planning for all 7.5 billion people, each a Wikidata Q-item or similar:
From Wikidata conversation in the new Telegram App today:
Hi Magnus, thanks, I looked at the video with Lydia, and found it a helpful overview ... perhaps with World Univ & Sch's donation to Wikidata for co-development in 2015 and receiving WUaS Miraheze Mediawiki in 2017, something like Person-item-#s will emerge re QIDs, - so PIDs, or similar (and on the WUaS side, but collaborating with Wikidata). WUaS is seeking to begin coding for matriculating students in all ~200 countries, and Universitians in all 7,111 known living languages - and per this same blog entry for 3 other reasons to begin ... https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/hop-bush-dodonaea-viscosa-all-75.html ... Thanks.
WUaS is seeking to plan, brainstorming-wise, for all 7.5 billion people for these reasons, to begin:
All 7.5 billion people, each a Wikidata Q-item number for

1) wiki Universitians in 7,111 known living languages, and matriculated students in all ~200 countries,

2) Avatar Bot Electronic Medical Records, with genetic therapies, and for molecular tele robotic surgery,

3) Universal Basic Income EXPERIMENTS (and to alleviate poverty), and to distribute a single cryptocurrency backed by some number of ~200 countries' central banks

4) a single family tree for genealogy research as in WikiTree, and for aggregating DNA samples too
https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/hop-bush-dodonaea-viscosa-all-75.html
Aleš, and Chris, How might we best explore this further and in Wikibase as well potentially?
Thank you! (Am posting some of my and Magnus Telegram chat for further context here).
Sincerely, Scotthttps://www.wikitree.com/treewidget/MacLeod-2524/5

Scott GK MacLeod, [07.11.19 08:15]
Magnus I just want to introduce you to @Carl-JohnSveningsson ... do you know each other? You're both active in Wikidata in Sweden ... and potentially re both 7.5 billion people, each a Wikidata Q-item, as well as a realistic virtual earth for everything with Wikidata data, ie with your Swedish churches' project (conceptually like Google Street View with time slider / Maps / Earth / TensorFlow / Translate with 7.5 billion avatar bots reprsenting all of us, and for medicine, and at the cellular and atomic levels too).

Scott GK MacLeod, [07.11.19 09:18]
Just blogged a bit about this, Magnus - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/hop-bush-dodonaea-viscosa-all-75.html ....

Magnus Sälgö, [07.11.19 12:31]
Yes Carl and I have met-....

Magnus Sälgö, [07.11.19 12:34]
Wikidata will noit scale to 7.5 billion people.... we have had discussions for years if
* every research article should be in WIkidata https://tools.wmflabs.org/scholia/
* every book should be there https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Books

Scott GK MacLeod, [07.11.19 12:35]
Wiki WUaS is also seeking to create all museums in all languages ever (thinking Google Street View with time slider / maps / earth with TensorFlow ... and re your data-work about Swedish churches )

Scott GK MacLeod, [07.11.19 12:36]
Ok ... Wiki WUaS in Wikidata, and re Wikidata's ~300 languages, will explore a variety of approaches brainstorming-wise

Scott GK MacLeod, [07.11.19 12:36]
Glad to learn that you and Carl-Johan have met

Scott GK MacLeod, [07.11.19 12:38]
WUaS is also in Google/Alphabet .. and may head in this direction re 7.5 billion people as well - Can we do this on Google's Stacks and with Quantum computing (in a realistic virtual earth at the atomic level too?:)
MIT Technology Review
@techreview
Why quantum computing could be as important for @Google as artificial intelligence
https://twitter.com/techreview/status/1192074286552551424

Exploring this here - https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch - https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualEarthForSTEM?src=hashtag_click and https://twitter.com/hashtag/RealisticVirtualEarth?src=hashtag_click -

Magnus Sälgö, [07.11.19 12:39]
You need to learn Wikibase.... and maybe convince Chris and Ales at WIkitree to stgart use it.... Ales has his own external database I guess
* https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Whitten-1
* https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Trtnik-2

We have a Swedish Semantic genealogy FB group https://www.facebook.com/groups/345973895882090

Scott GK MacLeod, [07.11.19 12:39]
Cool ...

Scott GK MacLeod, [07.11.19 12:42]
My main focus in these regards is to make interoperable the WUaS "front end" in WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University - with Wikidata as "back end" structured knowledge database ... and potentially by anticipating speakers of all 7,111 known living languages be able to register as 'Universitians' ... it may make sense here for WUaS brainstorming-wise to plan for all 7.5 billion people in whatever multi-lingual database ... This making interoperable has been a long time in the making![image error]

Scott MacLeod <sgkmacleod@gmail.com>11:38 AM (5 hours ago)

to Nancy, Janie, Jonathan, Ann, Alden, Ed, Larry, David, Andrew, Mary, Sandy, Jerry, Dean

Hi Janie, Jonathan, Nancy, and All,

Is there a genre of poetry called 'idea poetry' or similar, Jonathan? Am making some progress with one of the closing poems of my upcoming book of poetry - "To the Dance or the Pools? Virtually! ... " (as both title of book, and of said poem) - on the consciousness side, and to a lesser degree on the actual-virtual Harbin side, as well as the 'meter and verse' side - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/chameleon-vision-poem-to-dance-or-pools.html?m=0. If 'idea poetry' isn't yet an element, I hereby coin a new concept in literary theory genres :) ... (SEE, FOR EXAMPLE - "Glossary of Poetic Genres" -
https://poetry.harvard.edu/glossary-poetic-genres AND "Three Genres of Poetry - comedy, tragedy and epic" https://www.poemofquotes.com/articles/three-genres-of-poetry.php) ... re ways to understand poetry, and here philosophically.
Harbin cheers, Scott- https://www.amazon.com/author/scottmacleodworlduniversity -

The online teaching hospital is planned eventually in a realistic virtual earth (think Google Street View with time slider / Maps / Earth and potentially with Google's Project Baseline, as well as Project ECHO - https://twitter.com/ProjectECHO )

to Janie, Ed, Larry, David, Andrew, Mary, Sandy, Jerry, Dean

Dear Ma (Janie), Ed, Larry and All,

Working here on getting the Agenda and News out for MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School's Annual Meeting at WUaS Monthly Business Meeting on Saturday.

Here are the most recent Minutes in these regards:

Minutes:
- https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2019/10/minutes-for-world-univ-sch-monthly.html

- https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/10/scintillant-hummingbird-minutes-for.html

Another reason to explore a faculty position at Harvard Anthropology is to facilitate the research for and writing of a next book I'm planning, namely a MIT-Stanford STEM innovation ethnography, since the 1960s. See, for example: http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/07/carrot-compare-stem-cultures-of-mit.html. Being a Harvard Professor, in Cambridge, would allow me to do ethnographic field work at MIT, talking to people who were MIT students, faculty, staff et al. at the time, about STEM innovation at MIT, for example, as well as access technologies and archives. With this faculty position, I would then be able to also carry out comparative ethnographic research in California, both at Stanford, as well as at Harbin Hot Springs, as I develop a realistic virtual Harbin for actual-virtual, physical-digital ethnographic comparison and field work, and via ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy. I know a number of the Harvard Anthropology faculty, having met them at Stanford, and have cited a few of them in my academic publications / blog.

Sincerely, Scott

Hi Ma (Janie), and All,

Per my email the other day to you about not getting the MIT Media Lab faculty position last year, and ongoing lack of monies' issues re World Univ & Sch and personally, I wonder these days about getting a Harvard Anthropology faculty position and re my actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic project, as well as the creation of a realistic virtual earth for anthropology - http://www.scottmacleod.com/research-group.html - and also re this new social science / ethnography / STEM method and theory I'm calling ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy?m=0. I'm also curious if Stanford Anthropology and other faculty and possibly John Hennessy too could help with this, and potentially Berkeley Anthropology faculty too. Would be interesting to explore moving back to the Boston area in the autumn of 2020, for example, in these regards.

Thoughts about whom I might contact in these regards? Joi Ito was a main contact at MIT until he stepped down because of the craziness of big money and children sexual victims I'll call this. And it's possible I may have saved a lot of kids even by my whistle-blowing at the San Francisco Quaker Meeting in these regards too. And I'd be much closer proximity-wise to MIT re developing CC-4 MIT OCW-centric World University and School in MIT OCW's 5 languages for example, and hopefully with MIT graduate students teaching sections to some of the courses and their faculty ... and in their planning to become faculty themselves. What do you think?

You might enjoy again re-visiting some of the writing in this recent blog entry - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/northern-gannett-virtual-college-stem.html - which is quite long now, but kinda interesting as well ... and full of good ideas too - especially about ethics, with a new related blog label for this - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethics?m=0.

Love, Scott

Good afternoon, Ma,

House concert was enjoyable, in a beautiful "Berkeley craftsman style house" and good to hear Dick Hensold play well the Northumbrian small pipes (will blog a bit about this today - and re creativity and upcoming SSP album). Didn't meet anyone who might come to Open Band that I know of, and most of the folks there were in possibly their 60s. The owner of the house, Cathy, was a great kind of 'old hippy' I'd say ... Being among the audience leads me to think through exploring how I might want to seek a Harvard Anthropology Professor's position next year ... re my research, but also with regard to MIT OCW-centric World Univ & Sch. I imagine most people in the room would bear some resemblance to the social circles I might be finding my way into in Cambridge, and Boston, and re music too ... and especially re my various research and book projects ... back and forth, both in Cambridge, as well as in northern California ...
Good to get a nice note from Karen Leighty yesterday after sending out the WUaS Agenda and News ... and looking forward to seeing them in December in DC. Time to go through past emails and add some more people to the WUaS email lists, and send out one more Agenda announcement.
Heading to "Schoolab SF's International Night: Happy Hour Rendezvous with global entrepreneurs and startups" - https://www.eventbrite.com/e/schoolab-sfs-international-night-tickets-78662013199 - and am thinking Brittany would be a good startup Chief Operating Officer of WUaS, if she could be assigned to this - or similar (French is an official language in about 29 of ~200 countries, re online course ware in these regards for degrees, and although a Californian, she seems fluent in French). It could be interesting with time to meet a 28 year old MD who communicated a bit like she does and is personality-wise somewhat similar - and looking to begin a family as well.
Humorously and having heard back from Deirdre, a 'MD' - so-called 'managing director' - at Harbin about 3 weeks ago, I'm curious how Harbin will do 'security' from the 'inside.' (Deirdre's an insider' in a way ... while I am only in the participant side of Anthropological participant-observation methods' wise). Harbin's 'security' in the past has been about as funky as Harbin itself (a joke? ... or Harbin's own creation, with Harbin's own sanctions - including probably / possibly use of force????) ... Is Neil, Deirdre's partner (and long time Harbin person too), now head of security ... I ask in a kind of joking way? And if somehow Harbin and Harbin security collaborated with both the database people re visitors (would this be Google? ... as well as even, say, the US army, for example in one way or another, and not the CA police or other outsider groups/identities ... which could be a funky conversation unfolding now as Harbin re-builds after opening in January 2019 and after the fire of September 2015), how will the cultural aspects of security (not motivated by money or capitalism aspects ... since they're rebuilding so very slowly) at Harbin and re California law especially work out? And what might get institutionalized in these regards, as they as work through and develop a discourse / culture in 'thinking' through these 'security' questions, since it was probably a kind of 'hippy' unthought through 'security' from a beyond-Harbin perspective for decades. :) (How might I be protected if I were to head up their again for example in 2020 ... and how to weed out the bad apples, and even identify them, for example, in the post-hippy 'morass' or cultural chaos of Harbin after the fire?) And how would possible victims be protected, for example, and criminals prosecuted - a language that isn't as evolved as in Pennsylvania in the same ways? Just some Harbin musings ... and also re this blog post ...

Thanks, Dick,
I enjoyed your concert and meeting you, too. A friend, Barbara Salisbury (with whom I play in Open Band for Scottish Country Dancers on Mondays - https://twitter.com/TheOpenBand/status/1171460986571644929 - and with Patti above too), let me know about your house concert in that beautiful 'Berkeley craftsman style house' and re your Northumbrian piping (and I play the Scottish small pipes, as we talked about). I noticed you play many different instruments - http://www.dickhensold.com/instruments.htm - and wanted to bring, further, to your attention the Music School at World University and School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Music_School (planning each of all instruments in each of all 7,111 known living languages - with machine translation - each a wiki subject page for open teaching and learning, to begin, and with further wiki page creation possible) - especially since you have a music degree from Oberlin. See the Bagpipe Tutorials' wiki page - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Bagpipe_Tutorials - as an example of a wiki subject page that is furthest along, but since MIT OpenCourseWare doesn't have any bagpipe related courses, there are no MIT OCW courses here (to give you an idea of how WUaS will work for credit, too) ... but there are College of Piping Tutor resources, for example. (I just searched on and found interestingly this MIT resource - https://lit.mit.edu/people/wdonaldson/ - re his two bagpipe books, with a third on the way:).Eventually the Music School will move into real real time music making over the internet and in a realistic virtual earth (perhaps on Google's Stacks and re their recent claims of Quantum supremacy ... re lack of lag).

(Ongoing envisioning of my Scottish small pipes' "Honey in the Bag" album in 2020 here in the bagpiping label in my daily blog - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/bagpiping - and see creative exploration newly of putting my beginning "Boston Tea Party Song" 'verse' to SSP music and singing this with SSP - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/10/tea-camellia-sinensis-bring-eric.html - as well as - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/02/gobies-scott-macleods-honey-in-bag-cd.html and re the Music School at WUaS for SSP Tutorials - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/07/cape-cod-national-seashore-video-tune.html).

Am seeking too for the Press at World University and School to make possible musicians creating their own albums - a compilation of MP3s? - and also printing to CDs and distributing via the WUaS bookstore, as easy as pie. ... http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html ...
Thanks again for your good piping and music-making, and an enjoyable Berkeley house concert.

Sincerely, Scott- http://scottmacleod.com/piping.htm
Here some related free open bagpiping wiki subjects at MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Bagpipe_Tutorials- https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Northumbrian_smallpipes - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Scottish_smallpipes_and_borderpipes... and there are a few more piping wiki subject pages at WUaS - check in the "Links" sections ...

Agenda

0
World Univ & Sch is seeking an online undergraduate class of 500-2000 English speaking students from all 200 countries in the autumn of 2000. WUaS website development in multiple languages will be a major part of this - worlduniversityandschool.org

1
Finances - WUaS calendar year is January-December, so the annual financial report will come out in January 2020

i) need to set a budget for 2020

ii) WUaS will send out the WUaS financial report for October 2019 with the Minutes in a few days; it's the same as last months

2
Information Technology -
WUaS is glad to be in Wikidata (and in WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki - but they aren't yet interoperable), and newly communicating in Wikidata Office Hours in the Telegram App,(which first Wikidata office hour meeting there WUaS just attended on 5 Nov 2019); see transcript at bottom here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/11/hop-bush-dodonaea-viscosa-all-75.html - and in WUaS planning for:

All 7.5 billion people, each a Wikidata Q-item number for

1) wiki Universitians in 7,111 known living languages, and matriculated students in all ~200 countries,

2) Avatar Bot Electronic Medical Records, with genetic therapies, and for molecular tele robotic surgery,

3) Universal Basic Income EXPERIMENTS (and to alleviate poverty), and to distribute a single cryptocurrency backed by some number of ~200 countries' central banks

4) a single family tree for genealogy research as in WikiTree, and for aggregating DNA samples too

3
Organizational structure for WUaS developments -

i) Building on the WUaS Monthly Business Meeting organizational structure (see links to 2019 WUaS Minutes below)

ii) Seeking to move from writing as management style to Chief Operating Officer approach

iii) Seeking to code the WUaS web site ... (on Google platform, with best STEM CC-4 OpenCourseWare and in Wikidata's 300 languages, - and with licensing and accreditation)

iii) seeking to develop financial processes in these regards

With respect to this, how best to structure WUaS
A) As a unicorn company, to become a billion dollar company - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicorn_(finance) ?

B) For growth, and brainstorming-wise, potentially with a French entrepreneurial incubator called Schoolab (which meeting WUaS will attend this Friday evening, 15 Nov 2019, in SF - see below) ...

C) And how can WUaS become financially operational, and begin to hire? (ie how can we develop the organizational culture to support this growth, and then develop organizational structures beyond Friendly open Monthly Business Meeting ... ?

WUaS seeks to develop monies-wise, and re broadest organizational and IT structures, for this by exploring reaching out further to the Washington DC / Boston / Pittsburgh areas, as well as in the SF Bay Area ... and potentially in Europe now too.

Schoolab San Francisco International

Scott MacLeod
10:47 AM (38 minutes ago)
to mathieuaguesse, jc, Larry, me

Bonjour Jean-Claude, Mathieu, and Brittany (whose email I don't have),

Thank you for the invitation to the get together this Friday at SF Schoolab International. Does Schoolab engage CC-4 MIT OCW's Sloan School of Management / Business - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/sloan-school-of-management/ - in any way, en Anglais? FYI World Univ & Sch, of which I'm the founder, seeks to offer free-to-students' online Bachelor degrees FIRST IN ENGLISH as WUaS accredits with the state of California (BPPE), then MIT OCW-centric business degrees in French.

One 'value proposition' I could see in communicating further incubator-wise is Schoolab's Founders' and Management's connections (https://theschoolab.com/en/about/team/) with your universities in France and their relationship to the French government. Since World Univ & Sch seeks to build from the 'gold mine' or 'mother lode' of Creative Commons' 4 licensed MIT OpenCourseWare (in its 5 languages), where CC-4 licensing says users can, with MIT OCW, A) share it, B) adapt it, C) but non-commercially, WUaS cannot ask for tuition from students - so online WUaS will be free-to-students - but WUaS will seek reimbursement from governments (eg federal, state, local, etc) per student per year; this could extend to all 29 French speaking countries (planned in French - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/French_language).

So, for example, since you -

Jean-Claude Charlet
SCHOOLAB CEO and co-founder

went to ...

- Stanford University Graduate School of Business - Business Administration

- Université Paris La Sorbonne

- ESSEC Business School - Business Administration

... WUaS would like to explore developing networks with these great universities and related governments (eg state of CA in Sacramento, Federal Government in Washington DC, the French government in Paris, etc), and all via the internet.

Similarly, Matthieu, Audiencia's Business School (your alma mater - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mathieuag...) could benefit from Wolrd Univ & Sch's MIT OCW arrangements. If WUaS could get, over time, French students interested in MIT OCW-centric management degrees, in English and French, and if then WUaS could get reimbursement from the French government due to the CC-4 licensing, and Schoolab's ESSEC, Sorbonne and Audencia's connections, I suspect that people affiliated with French World University and School would do very well for themselves, for example, too.

This would extend to Colombia, (and Uruguay, too, and with regards to Brittany's recent trip there), and with respect to

Ana Maria Zuluaga
Co-founder at Schoolab San Francisco
EHESS - Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales

And WUaS seeks to create online Colombia and Uruguay World University and School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States - in official / major languages there. Here's the Spanish Language with subject at WUaS - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Spanish_language - planned in Spanish, and informing major online MIT OCW-centric WUaS Universities in all Spanish speaking countries (21?).

World Univ & Sch seeks to offer online Bachelor, Ph.D., Law and Medicine (M.D.) degrees as well as I.B. high school degrees, all online and accrediting, and in ~200 countries' official / main languages.

And while WUaS seeks to offer online Business Degrees at the Bachelor and Ph.D. levels, based on MIT OCW Sloan courses - see WUaS'a 6 present undergraduate majors in the course catalog here ... http://worlduniversityandschool.org/ - WUaS hasn't matriculated any undergraduate students for this yet. World Univ & Sch is seeking an online undergraduate class of 500-2000 English speaking students from all 200 countries in the autumn of 2000. WUaS website development in multiple languages will be a major part of this.

I see another 'value proposition' with regard to translating of MIT OCW into French, for example, and job creation as well as knowledge generation for France, and in French-speaking countries. For example, these French universities above, and faculty translators too (learning new courses to teach in French), could benefit from the knowledge in MIT OCW for their own universities. (Againn, this could extend to all countries with French as their official languages too, so in Africa, for example, and for reimbursement too - as well as for knowledge generation).

WUaS is very digitally focused, so not seeking office space, yet I'd like to invite you to Monday Morning 10 am WUaS talk sessions if you might be interested -

https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch/status/1188152443386777601. Could WUaS explore interviewing you here, Jean-Claude, for example?

And for your information too, WUaS is 2 legal entities: A) World University and School, a non-profit 501 c 3 tax exempt charity, and B) the WUaS Corporation / Press a for-profit general stock company. Both are planned in each of all ~200 countries, and in 7111 known living languages, and both are not yet financially operational to speak of. Here are the most recent Minutes to give you more information about WUaS:

Chameleon vision: Poem ~ '"To the Dance or the Pools? ~ Virtually! How different it is to soak at Harbin Hot Springs, than to realize it in virtual reality"

"To the Dance or the Pools? ~ Virtually! How different it is to soak at Harbin Hot Springs, than to realize it in virtual reality"

Drive them back to the wine-dark taste of home,
The smell of damsons simmering in a pot,
Jam ladled thick and steaming down the sunlight. - Seamus Heaney

To the dance, then the pools,First at actual Harbin, over years,Dancing free, dancing be,Dancing bee, buzzing, its own honey ~This movement-freedom growsWith warmth and energy In concert with the music.
Connecting with dancing begins,Connecting with dancing beings,Singing inside with freedom in rhythm,I delight in this liberation, ~but depends on the music too ~ Blues, Grateful Dead, jamming, Rock & Roll, Make it happen for me, actually.
Heat comes, the music closes at evening's end, and people head to the pools,To cool down, to complement the body-movement jam,With serene soaking under starlight- and the warm waters - ease.These Harbin warm pool waters,This elixir of encompassing body suits ~One's whole being received byThis geo-thermally warmed liquid, ~We like.

Virtually?
Dancing at home - wearing the Glasses -I'm there, and so are you,in the Harbin Conference Center, And people be jamming,this be-music is hop-happening,Virtually.
I start to move here at home,Glasses revealing new openingsthrough which to glide,And around my body goes,Dancing at home, dancing my home.
How Different it is to dance at home in virtual Harbin, ~and cool - a realization.

... "Question:whether 'tis nobler in the mind to sufferThe slings and arrows of outrageous fortuneOr to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them?"(https://poets.org/poem/hamlet-act-iii...)

Or, to head to Harbin actually or virtually, different it is,To seek and find freedom,By traveling from the SF bay,The way, the Napa Valley Wine way to Harbin,Or to find one's way There, Virtually there, 'as if' and by multimedia,With gorgeous visuals On a screen, currentlyWhat a scream!

Yet beyond this traveling difference -A big difference - this venturing outIn bodymind, locomotively, to move through, To see, to interact with, the world,
The Soaking in warm pool Actually, in waters there,While being in Harbin all around,Communicating silently, communing that is, with fellow naked soakers, is wondrous.
The Soaking in one's bathtub,Virtually, from home, Glasses on, digital screens behind the glass, newfangled things,While surround-seeing in Harbin ~Brainwave headset too to comeFor communication, Tan Le's* or
Brainfingers* (only works when able to relax) or
EEG* brainwave 'dreadlocks' ~Still wondrousYet you don't hang out actually ~By mingling silently in warm pool ~Or visiting quietly naked

Sunning on the Sun Deck.Immersive both, in different ways, The warm waters helpmeditation deepen ~Release inwardly deeply ~a relaxation response in both,And all is one in the here and now,Consciousness changes.
Yet there's more space too in the actual Harbin's warm pool than in this bathtub.

How best to understand consciousness, and this consciousness,
this Harbin consciousness,
this Harbin Heart Consciousness
of HCC - Heart Consciousness Church?
Subjective-Objective accounts,1st person-3rd person scientific narratives ~In the warm waters, with the Glasses,Re visually observing,And beginning to examine neural processing ~ as sentience, awareness, perception and feeling In the brain the mind, the BodyMind?

So is this, the Body-Mind problem,
moot in the warm pool,
and consciousness all one?
Yet, poetry-wise, we be studying
how brains give rise to mind,
re neural processing,
with brainwave headsets ~
thinking about it.
So then, can minds be bodies, and
is sentience brain-meat or bodyminds?
Virtually!

So how is bodymind
consciousness - importantly - virtual,
or in what ways can we make this more so - to learn?

And are these neurophysiological e-states
in these hypothetical virtual brains,conscious - digitally?

(And how far does sentience extend down the phylogenetic tree?Won't study this here now at Harbin, Yet Tononi's integrated information theory - IIT - holds promise - 'that consciousness is identical to a certain kind of information' - and measurable as Phi, the symbol for integrated information.
How could we code this in virtual brains,
yours and mine,
Film-to-3D app at the street level, cell and atomic levels,
where the 'digital' corresponds 1-1
to the brain cells and neurons and processing,
and the 'virtual' - as if with multimedia,
to the mind, - somehow conscious.
Thus we might distinguish between the
Actual-Virtual, and the Physical-Digital. And how could brainwave headset devices best turn their information gathering inwardly in these regards - and from the Harbin warm pool?)

Qualia, infinite qualities, ('the internal and subjective component of sense perceptions, arising from stimulation of the senses by phenomena' too),Perceived by many, in myriad ways, in many bodyminds? At actual Harbin in the warm pool, with brain wave headsets monitoring the brain, might one be able to study these anew?
At home with Glasses,and brainwave headsets,people could talk more readily, adding a language element to the 'subjective,' their 1st person accounts, - and in studying the brain technologically, actually-virtually & physically-digitally, where the 'as-if' virtual experience created by multimedia and perceived in the brain could be digitally developed in virtual brains ~ in a realistic virtual earth for STEMand brain science, And of species, and individuals,like you and me, soaking, soaking, soaking in the warm pool at Harbin, in the bath tub at home
in real virtual Harbin, ... and yet conscious:
"To the Dance or the Pools? ~ Virtually!
How different it is to soak at Harbin Hot Springs,
than to realize it in virtual reality"

And loving bliss neurophysiology,Uniquely Harbin warm pool generatedAs it bubbles up, While soaking?
How to measure this with headsets,Distinguishing even between,Objectively, The relaxation response,The relaxation response in the Harbin warm pool,And brain chemistry of neural cascades of pleasure,
And then also, Subjectively, I say,In words?

And with machine learning, further,On the objective, 3rd person Scientific accounts' side,Could we add cameras to cells, wee antennae, or cameras, to atoms, (and have George Church,* Ed Boyden* and
Karl Deisseroth* already done this?),As well as send optogenetic signals In from the headsetsWhileIn the warm pool,or In the bath tub ~
at Harbin soaking?
And subjectively, when we're blissing,After releasing into meditation, After eliciting the relaxation response ~ Self reported, ~use language to talk about this?I know it consciously when I'm blissing
in the Harbin warm pool, when bliss is simply bubbling up.So can we measure such,
like your conscious bliss for sure, And bring this together with what we say about this ~With our awareness, consciousness that is, in an account of infinite qualities, as information?
Long way to go to measure
integrated information Phi in the brain,
to code it in virtual brains,To hypothesize this further,And then objectively and 3rd person-wise Observe this scientifically (& consciously) In the brain,But maybe nakedness, Actually, andVirtually,And examining desire,Further, too, will open ways ...
So first the dance, then the poolsThis time, andHow Different it is to Soak at Harbin, than to Realize it in Virtual Reality.

Understanding consciousnessAnd realizing bliss further,
connectedness, in complement with scientific sentience,Thanks to Harbin.
To the Dance or the Pools? ~
Virtually!
How different it is to soak at
Harbin Hot Springs,
than to realize it in virtual reality.
