Scott MacLeod <sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org>

10:48 AM (5 hours ago)

to jp1, Steven.Davis, jgrimmer, Hank, John, Roland, Robert, James, Larry, Claudia, Sandy, Grant, Janie, John, Joan, Jemma, Jonathan, Katie, Christine, cathy4ford, Lydia, Tym, Sid, mcfaul, Mei, Avery, hongbinli, MacLeod, Barbara



Dear Professor Jennifer Pan,

Thanks for your excellent presentation today. Here are the questions I asked in the text chat. What do you think?

Sincerely, Scott

Scott GK MacLeod

Founder, President, CEO & Professor

World University and School, (like Wikipedia in 300 languages, with CC-4 MIT OCW in 4 languages)



Thanks, excellent, Jennifer,! 

How do you theorize power? 

Am reminded of Manuel Castells’ book “Communication Power” (2009/2013): “The core argument presented in this book is that power relationships, the foundation of the institutions that organize society, are largely constructed in people’s minds through communication processes.” (2013: xix) … where power is “the relational capacity that enables a social actor (CGTN?) to influence asymmetrically the decisions of other social actor(s) in ways that favor the empowered actor’s will, interests, and values. Power is exercised by means of coercion (or the possibility of it) and/or by the construction of meaning on the basis of the discourses through which social actors guide their actions” (10). In what ways would you approach these 4 framing narratives on CGTN on Twitter (https://twitter.com/CGTNGlobalBiz?) differently, if you examined questions of (your) 'sharp power' or 'soft power' conceptions with the above understandings of 'power' per Castells? How would you measure or assess 'power' in different ways, as a consequence if at all? Thanks so much, Jennifer! Scott MacLeod, sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org - @WorldUnivAndSch, Languages - World Univ - @sgkmacleod). Thank you!

For your presentation, do your 'sharp power' and 'soft power' conceptions relate to Castells' coercion or meaning approaches to power? 

Best regards, and thank you,

Scott

#bitcoin is not libertarian. it is apolitical.

the reason you think it is libertarian is that you have been conditioned to live in a world in which everything is political.

you might wanna snap out of that if you want to have the slightest clue what is happening around you.

Dear Bernardo, and Gerencia (and Larry),


Thanks so much for a great Colombia educators' and World University and School meeting just now - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1b2_kGGycAhpmnPM3pwBu6nq0bo2Dn2Fj/view - for 2 hours and 10 minutes.

Scott MacLeod <sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org>Aug 15, 2021, 7:17 PM (19 hours ago)to Bernardo, GerenciaDear Bernardo, Gerencia, 

Greetings. I just found that I blogged about our meeting together back in March 2019 here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/03/victoria-amazonica-ninja-geeks-bogota.html?m=0 . And I'm interested in an ongoing way to begin WUaS 'home robotics' with the 3 Lego Robotics' kits (of which WUaS Robotics' store is an authorized official carrier in the USA only) and for WUaS students learning to program with the Scratch programming language even (which works with Lego Robotics) and per the workshop we were in. Perhaps we can talk about this too, - and for all ~22 out of ~200 countries where Spanish is an official or main language. 
Here's the Robotics' wiki subject at WUaS (planned in Spanish) - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Robotics (and check out the CC-4 MIT OCW course on Lego Robotics)
and the robotics' label in my daily blog - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/robotics.

And here's the Google Meet URL for tomorrow - http://meet.google.com/gvx-ntpm-tgn
Looking forward to learning from you, and about the project you have in mind - https://www.ninja-geeks.com/nosotros.
Until tomorrow, and Best regards, Scott

Bernardo, are you able, by any chance, to find any Google Workplace for Education high school courses in SPANISH, with possible certificates, that WUaS could add to our WUaS Google Workplace for Education? And would you like to begin to explore WUaS Google Workplace for Education as admin or teacher?
All the best, Scott

Could this course, and this Lego Youtube Channel, be of use or interest to the interns in the jail in Colombia you teach to, Bernardo - and even regarding creating a robotic vehicle that could help with "Coffee Farm Robotics" ' and career opportunities? 
I know Dr. Leanna Prater and Lego lead in the USA, and would reach out to her further about Lego Robotics in Columbia if that might be of interest to you. Let's talk further about this.

Hi Lee:

Thanks so much for your direct email response. (I appreciate it, am honored).

Scott GK MacLeod works (since the GK would distinguish me from the other Scott MacLeod's names out there). If you could add World University and School
below this, that would be great too (and perhaps some version of the signature below if there's space, and it works in the Pew Research Center Internet
and Technology Research Report). Thank you, Lee!

Warm regards, Scott

Hi Scott:

Thank you so much for your great - as usual - answers to our questions this year about the future of digital spaces as part of our annual canvassing of
experts about the future of digital life.

Since you've signed your answers to our other questions in the past, I was wondering how you'd like your answers to be cited in our report about this
year's canvassing.

You didn't sign them and I wonder if it would it be OK if we attributed your answers to you by name?

Of course, we're fine to highlight your comments as an "anonymous" contribution if that's your preference.

Again, deep thanks for your time and wisdom this year, as in the past.

Warm regards,
Lee

Here's what I wrote this year, in response to the Pew Internet Research canvas, with its questions: 


Pew Research Center for Internet and Society annual survey


2021 Pew-Elon Research -- Internet and Technology Project Canvassing


Canvassing of experts by Pew Research Center about the future of digital spaces and survey closes on Sunday night

What reforms or initiatives may have the biggest impact? What beneficial role do you see tech leaders and/or politicians and/or public audiences playing in this evolution? What will be noticeably improved about digital life for the average user 2035? What current problems do you see being diminished? Which will persist and continue to raise major concerns?



I think the following initiatives may have a big impact - 

A

Realistic Virtual Earth for everything – and especially Actual-Virtual, Physical-Digital developments and conversation

B

Single cryptocurrency – such Stanford Mine Pi - to end poverty for all 7.8 billion people and via UBI experiments, with each person receiving a Wikidata Pin # for distribution questions (as well as a device to access this)


https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/se...

https://scott-macleod.blospot.com/sea...



C

World University and School – like CC-4 MIT OCW in its 4 languages with Wikipedia in its 300 languages - planned 


1

in each of ~200 countries, and 7,139 known living languages, for free online university and high school degrees, Bachelor, PhD, Law, MD and IB high school or similar, and


2

as wiki schools for open teaching and learning in all 7139 living languages, - for free universal education and via people to people wiki approaches -


will have a significant impact.

What is one example of an aspect of digital life that you think could be different in 2035 than it is today? We invite you to create a vignette of something you would like to see taking place in a “new and improved” digital realm in 2035. Your example might involve politics or social activities or jobs or physical and mental health or community life or education. Feel free to think expansively – and specifically.



- Online MD psychiatrists in each of all ~200 countries, and in their main languages


WUaS seeks to instruct, develop (and hire) highest quality online MD psychiatrists in each of all ~200 countries, and in their main languages, and eventually via interactive avatar bot and chat bots – and for free psychiatry eventually. 


https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Psychiatry

https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States

https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Languages


In addition WUaS seeks to develop excellent career and guidance artificial intelligence chat bots and similar.



A realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs


World Univ & Sch also seeks to develop a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs for soaking (in bath tubs and similar), meditating from home, and socializing and hanging out in – and for Actual-Virtual, Physical-Digital ethnographic (and STEM and social science) research, in which to explore further too questions about envisioning a better world, wiki-wise even – and regarding a new social science and STEM method I’m calling ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy.

No matter how you’ve answered the previous questions, we invite you to imagine a better world online: What is one example of an aspect of digital life that you think could be different in 2035 than it is today? We invite you to create a vignette of something you would like to see taking place in a “new and improved” digital realm in 2035. Your example might involve politics or social activities or jobs or physical and mental health or community life or education. Feel free to think expansively – and specifically.



To imagine a better world online:


Free universal education

WUaS envisions free universal education with people to people wiki teaching about subjects they love, in all ~200 countries’ and in their official and main languages, and in all 7139 known living languages - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.... WUaS seeks to cultivate flourishing cultures and communities of learning and teaching about subjects people love in an open-ended way, as well as subjects that are academically oriented.

Free-to-student’s degrees, emerging from CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare in its 4 languages, for Bachelor, Ph.D., Law, MD and IB high school in each of all 200 countries and in their main languages. 


Universal Basic Income experiments to end poverty

To distribute a single crypto-currency (think Stanford Mine Pi) worldwide in all ~200 countries – via UBI experiments and especially to end poverty, World Univ & Sch seeks to plan to code for all 7.8 billion people, each a Wikidata Pin # and that each person could become too a wiki teacher or learner at WUaS (while receiving Stanford Mine Pi, which, for examples, nation states, would invest in). Think also what comes after the Euro in 19 out 28 countries regarding a digital currency, and what comes after the US dollar too.

the Freedom Trail with stops on the modern-day Underground Railroad? 


did I make a successful trip on the Freedom Trail with stops on the modern-day Underground Railroad - with a good trip after 7 weeks (what I'm thinking of as a Freedom Trail and even kind of stops on the underground railroad re perpetrators and offenders and purveyors particularly re Canyon 94516 and my calling the local Moraga police near there last September 2020) and calling at WUaS for the abolition of the illegal sex industry, for one, re - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/07/beach-rose-rosa-rugosa-wuas-minutes-for.html?m=0 - in Minute 8 ... from 7/17/21 WUaS Minutes ... to protect our WUaS students & wiki Universitians (planning brainstorming-wise for a 7.8 billion people, each a Wikidata Pin#), and grow WUaS - and re the catastrophes / atrocities even re fund-raising and money partly at MIT in recent years in some of these regards. Thanks for your phone call, Ed! Fondly, Scott

Fritz, Peter Norvig, Bay Area Stammtischlern, All, 
Very glad to have about 10 'participants today' in the 8/14/21 Bay Area Stammtisch - https://drive.google.com/file/d/18VzBmonLdyeukAz5Zsr5IJHz5xRIzfEn/view - many of which may have been Bots, however. We talked about German approaches to seminar in University education, American approaches to seminar (in contrast to lecture) - both relative to the possibly more static CC-4 MIT OCW courses (now in 4 languages) that WUaS seeks to build on, - and hacking. Was the Bay Area Stammtisch hacked, interestingly!? Did we see not only Bots but also Clones - re coding that could inform seminars / conferences / dialogues / conversations in new ways? ... WUaS would seek to teach this too !
Peter, Fritz asked me to see if I could find out from Google what happened today. Peter, what happened today please in the Bay Area Stammtisch with all these creative contributions, yet not really in a natural language, like German, English, or Spanish for example? 
Thank you! Bay Area Stammtisch next Saturday 8/21/21 here - meet.google.com/bgf-fxay-zmh.
Best regards, Scott

Bots and Clones Mark!, Bruce, MacLeod Family, All, 
... of James MacLeod on PEI, of you, or any of us, - and digitally, for genetic genealogy esp.?
 In today's open Bay Area Stammtisch (see below), we had some new participants - some bots and clones? in Google Meet - and may have just had a WUaS 'lesson' in creating interactive bots and clones, (from Peter Norvig himself? ... who receives the Bay Area Stammtisch announcements) ...

Blog post - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/08/annas-hummingbird-calypte-anna-google.html - "Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna): Avatar bots emerging ... talking ... and for genealogy platforms? * Google Earth Image - & Genealogy Avatar Bots (of our ancestors), ... "


(I'm getting a bounceback from Jen - ND MacLeod <jm@jenmacleod.com> email address ... please forward, since she might be interested in these digital developments, - if inclined!)
Thanks again for a great Macleod gathering at Bonny Eagle on 7/31 and 8/1 ... and very nice to see some of you!
Hold Fast, Scott

Stammtischlern, 
Very glad to have about 10 'participants today' in the 8/14/21 Bay Area Stammtisch - https://drive.google.com/file/d/18VzBmonLdyeukAz5Zsr5IJHz5xRIzfEn/view - many of which may have been Bots, however. We talked about German approaches to seminar in University education, American approaches to seminar (in contrast to lecture) - both relative to the possibly more static CC-4 MIT OCW courses (now in 4 languages) that WUaS seeks to build on, - and hacking. Was the Bay Area Stammtisch hacked, interestingly!? Did we see not only Bots but also Clones - re coding that could inform seminars / conferences / dialogues / conversations in new ways? ... WUaS would seek to teach this too !
Peter, Fritz asked me to see if I could find out from Google what happened today. Peter, what happened today please in the Bay Area Stammtisch with all these creative contributions, yet not really in a natural language, like German, English, or Spanish for example? 
Thank you! Bay Area Stammtisch next Saturday 8/21/21 here - meet.google.com/bgf-fxay-zmh.

Eastern red-tailed hawk: Started finding websites for further seeking a life partner yesterday before bed last night


Ma, Pin (Sid), All, 


Started finding websites for further seeking a life partner yesterday before bed last night 🙂 ... Am ongoingly skeptical of most (re their business models and ethics too), yet some women who post to them could be looking too for a life partner especially ... A pretty 27 yo Stanford or Yale MD seeking creative man (WUaS, music, Harbin) to begin a family ... Quaker, UU, Cuttyhunk island in summers, and regarding further actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' Ethnographic research site for long term studying, founder of MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch ... And so on?
Found - 
UU Singles (Unitarian Universalist)
https://www.uua.org/adults/relationships-parenting/singles
https://www.uusm.org/about-our-church/links/uu-singles

https://www.uua.org/central-east/blog/better-together/person-online-or-both


Or contact interim UU Minister Michelle Collins at the UU Church of Kensington / Berkeley - to which I've walked often in the past year or so (culturally too somehow), - and come into conversation with her, that I'm seeking a life partner, - and since my parents met and married in the UU Church of Cincinnati in 1957 ... and my mother is still active in the 1st UU church of Pgh?
... and re ethics (UU too), seeking ... So, a pretty 27 yo Stanford or Yale MD seeking creative man (actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' Ethnographic research site for long term studying, founder of MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, music) to begin a family of 3 or so ... Quaker, UU, Cuttyhunk island in summers,  ... And so on?
Would Cuttyhunker and UU Minister Betsy Mead Tabor in New Hampshire like to apply for this Minister position in Berkelely when it opens ?
Found too -

The Quaker Calendar
https://www.swarthmore.edu/friends-historical-library/quaker-calendar

eHarmony (Kim Viehland mentioned this a few years ago)https://www.eharmony.com/(but am very skeptical too of such web sites, this one out of LA - and regarding a bad experience experimenting with Match .com in 2006-2007 - when I was just exploring - and where I clicked the free for a month button, or similar, and then, I think, Match un-clicked it, and I was charged $300 on my credit card, and my credit card wouldn't reimburse this ... ouch)
Both Susan Taylor (from a Reed College educational context) and Anke Starke (from a Pendle Hill Quaker Study educational context) ... pastfar-reaching mutual loves both ... seem like likely precursors ... regarding somehow my 'love map' (a John Money PhD word, referring to a template in the mind and brain for who's attractive ... ) ... where context seems relevant for meeting, given my past experience (and was Susan 21 at the time, and Anke 23, and from the former east Germany, - and since I speak German, we shared a language in common too, and I could learn from her).
Welcoming your thinking, or introductions of potentially great fits, regarding finding a life partner ... shared values, culture and ethics (and lack of breaking the law, for ex.) has much appeal ... so possibly Quaker or UU, for example, in some contexts? 
Able to meditate this morning Yogically again in more space than a car :)
Trip was good in retrospect :)
Warmly, Scott

Red-tailed Hawk: Big sky Central Oregon

 


Big sky Central Oregon, 

Amazingly wondrous huge sky

High desert, vast land.

Is that a pyramid to the east,

Or a mountain far older than Egypt's 

Eternal builds?


Four choppers stopped at red light

In middle of this desert, 

Two hippies with very long hair, 

one is shirtless,

Two riders with short hair. 

Absurd, Fellini-esque,

Where are they going together,.

In forsaken southern Oregon desert??

We wait for the traffic light to change.

The Pilot car to arrive from the other direction 

The guy with long hair, a long gray ponytail, and no shirt,

Lays down a pelt behind his 

High handlebar-red motorcycle,

Smiles back at me,

before he lays down on back,

On the tarmac.

Olde hippies, a free spirit, in the middle of

Oregon central desert vastness,.on the road.


Light changes to blinking yellow,

They proceed I follow,

They turn right at Christmas Valley road turnoff.


Alkali lake next

Then more 'spectacular and desolate' 

Immense land

Road is often very straight and very very long

Lake Abert next ... I take pics 


Wow Hwy 395 ...  incroyably mind expanding big Oregon 

This dessert speaks.

Big sky central Oregon, 

Amazingly wondrous huge sky, 

High desert, vast land.

Is that a pyramid to the east,

Or a mountain far older than Egypt's 

Ancient builds?


Four choppers stopped at red light

In middle of this desert, 

heading south,

Two old hippies with very long hair, 

one is shirtless,

Two riders with short hair. 

Absurd, Fellini-esque,

Where are they going together, 

In forsaken southern Oregon desert??

We wait for the traffic light to change,

For the Pilot car to arrive from the other direction. 

The guy with long hair, a long gray ponytail, and no shirt,

Lays down a pelt the length of his head, torso, and sacrum, 

behind his high handlebar-red motorcycle,

and smiles back at me,

before he lays down on his back,

On the tarmac.

I recline in my driver's seat to wait for the light to change.

Olde hippies, a free spirit, in the middle of

Oregon central desert vastness, on the road.
