Now that's mobile entertainment:
eccentric dude's piano bar on wheels 07/13/2004 12:23 PM
Following up on yesterday's post about the ice cream truck converted into a reggae dub soundsystem on wheels, Bill Pollock says: "Harrington King (whose business cards read "Spiritual Optimist") regularly parks his custom piano bar on wheels at various places down midtown [Sacramento, California] most weekend nights. Its cozy inside, appropriately piano bar-y with assorted bongos for those who feel moved to play. An awful photo but decent writeup avaialble via the News & Review (L ink) and the traveling piano bar has its own website (Link)."

On the piano bar website, an archived interview in the Sacramento Bee, in which the eccentric dude says:

(Reporter) Do you have a favorite weekend song to play?
(King) I've got a Sacramento song that people like.
(Reporter) What's that?
(King) I don't know. I guess it's called "Sacramento Song."
(Reporter) You go to any music spots around town?
(King) I am a music spot around town.

on the meaning of "parody"

on the meaning of "parody" 07/27/2004 09:36 AM
Everyone's seen the brilliant JibJab Flash of Bush/Kerry. The piece claims to be a "parody" of Woody Guthrie's "This Land." As any copyright lawyer recognizes, it is not a "parody" in the sense that "fair use" ordinarily recognizes it. A "fair use" "parody" is a work that uses a work to make fun of the author. JibJab is using Guthrie's work not to make fun of Guthrie, but of the candidates. (For the now classic case on this, see Dr. Suess v. Penguin Press, where a "parody" of O.J. Simpson using The Cat in the Hat was not "fair use.") Guthrie's publisher's lawyers too recognize this. As CNN's Allen Wastler reports, Guthrie's publisher is now threatening JibJab. What's great about this story, of course, is the levels of hypocrisy. Guthrie was not much for property rights himself. It's said that there is a not-often-sung verse: As I went walking, I saw a sign there; And on the sign there, It said, 'NO TRESPASSING.' But on the other side, It didn't say nothing. That side was made for you and me! But whether Guthrie believed in property rights or not, the key thing this story should do is force us to ask generally: Does a law that makes a political parody such as Jibjab illegal (even if it is not a "parody" in the copyright view of the world) make sense? (Note to citizens: We're permitted to change the law.) (Thanks to Paul Puglia!)

How a Nation Forfeits its Meaning

How a Nation Forfeits its Meaning 05/08/2004 11:43 AM

Sidney Blumenthal: Thi s is the new gulag. President Bush, Condoleezza Rice and other officials, unable to contain the controversy any longer, engaged in profuse apologies and scheduled appearances on Arab television. There were still no firings. One of their chief talking points was that the "abuse" was an aberration. But Abu Ghraib was a predictable consequence of the Bush administration imperatives and policies.

There was a saying in Vietnam that summed up much of America's operations there: "We had to destroy the village to save it." We are going to destroy America to save it if we keep on the current path. The nation I love is risking its very soul, operating as if law and morality are irrelevant because, after all, "We're in a war, don't you see?" We're in a war with ourselves, too. We are risking the part of being American that has so attractive here and around the world: the sense that we paid attention to human rights and meant it. We are still better than most. We are investigating the abuses. We are not Saddam-like butchers and madmen. But we are not going in the right direction. It seems that Rumsfeld and Bush apologized for horrific abuse mostly because there are pictures of it. They're warning us of even worse to come, because there are also pictures of that. But such abuse is not new. There were re peated warnings (Washington Post) from the Red Cross and human rights organizations. For that matter, prisoners are widely abused in America's domestic prisons (NYT) -- and guess what, some of the worst conditions are in Texas. We are a revenge-loving society to begin with: Throw away the key or hang 'em high, and if the state kills a few innocents in our names, well, sorry about that. And we decided after Sept. 11 that we would fight a dirty war, here and abroad, thumbing our nose at international law and the Constitution because that would get the job done. Anyone in authority claiming surprise at the reality of the prison abuse is surely lying, because the reality of our new way of making war has been no secret. (See, for example, Mark Bowden's Atlantic Monthly piece, "The Dark Side of Interrogation," which was published in October 2003.) The polls suggest that Americans are comfortable with the idea that it's okay to shred the Constitution at home and ignore all human rights abroad in the amorphous "war on terrorism," which has now been expanded to include anything the Bush administration says it is. Shame on our government. Shame on us. How deep in to the anything-goes depravity have we sunk? I hope it's not too far to come back out. And I pray that Americans as a people will wake up to what is being done in our names, and then put a stop to it. No one is suggesting we give in to terrorists. We went to Afghanistan for good reasons, though we then pulled vital resources from that battle to take out Saddam and his nonexistent weapons of mass destruction, and then make a terrifying muddle of the reconstruction. (We must see it through in Iraq. I don't know how we can do it at this point, but we must.) Now Afghanistan is a mess again, and the entire world is coming to loathe us in unprecedented ways. The soldiers and mercenaries in one Iraqi prision are the tip of a foul iceberg. At stake here is the very meaning of America. These are frightening times.

Robotics and the Meaning of Life

Robotics and the Meaning of Life 07/20/2004 11:18 AM
The Open University in the UK, has found a practical use for Asimov's robot stories. They're being used as part of a robotics class, called Robotics and the Meaning of Life: a practical guide to things that think. The Laws of Robotics are considered in terms of real control architectures such as subsumption and on the practicality of using them to design safe robots. Asimov's Laws are just one part of a larger course that reviews the history and state of the art in robotics from R.U.R. and the Turing Test to Moore's law. Students get hands-on experience using a Lego Mindstorms compatible robotics simulator called OU-Robotlab. Required reading for the course includes Asimov's I, Robot, and Ruth Aylett's Robots: Bringing Intelligent Machines to Life.

The Nature of Meaning in the Age of Google by Terrence A. Brooks
http://information r.net/ir/9-3/paper180.html

Abstract By Author:
The culture of lay indexing has been created by the aggregation strategy employed by Web search engines such as Google. Meaning is constructed in this culture by harvesting semantic content from Web pages and using hyperlinks as a plebiscite for the most important Web pages. The characteristic tension of the culture of lay indexing is between genuine information and spam. Google's success requires maintaining the secrecy of its parsing algorithm despite the efforts of Web authors to gain advantage over the Googlebot. Legacy methods of asserting meaning such as the META keywords tag and Dublin Core are inappropriate in the lawless meaning space of the open Web. A writing guide is urged as a necessary aid for Web authors who must balance enhancing expression versus the use of technologies that limit the aggregation of their work.

Diminishing America's Meaning

Diminishing America's Meaning 06/10/2004 11:35 AM

Richard Cohen (Washington Post): A Plunge from the Moral Heights. The Bush administration constantly reminds us that there's a war on. That's wrong. There are two. One is being fought by soldiers in combat, and the other is being fought for the hearts and minds of people who are not yet our enemies. However badly the administration has botched the first war -- where, oh where, is Osama bin Laden? -- it has done even worse with the second. It has jutted its chin to the world, appeared pugnacious and unilateralist, permitted the abuse of POWs and others at Abu Ghraib, and now toyed in some fashion with torture. The Bush administration has shamed us all, reducing us to the level of those governments that also have wonderful laws forbidding torture, but condone it anyway.

Even if there wasn't a moral issue, you'd imagine that even this crowd would grasp the practical necessity of treating prisoners with decency. If we declare license to do this to other nations' combatants, other nations will do it to ours. But the issue is deeper. As Michael Froomkin, professor of law at the University of Miami, notes on his blog, the adminstration's rationale is truly frightening. Of a redacted copy of the Justice Department memo Ashcroft won't give Congress but which has been leaked widely to the media, Froomkin writes:

(It) sets out a view of an unlimited Presidential power to do anything he wants with “enemy combatants”. The bill of rights is nowhere mentioned. There is no principle suggested which limits this purported authority to non-citizens, or to the battlefield. Under this reasoning, it would be perfectly proper to grab any one of us and torture us if the President determined that the war effort required it. I cannot exaggerate how pernicious this argument is, and how incompatible it is with a free society. The Constitution does not make the President a King. This memo does.

Will this be the catalyst that helps Congress find its spine?

Subculture, the meaning of style

Subculture, the meaning of style 09/25/2004 12:03 PM
For Westerners, the index case of subculture has to be the 1960s UK conflict between the razor-sharp, tailored mods and their mortal enemies, the greasy rockers .

Difference was critical to these first self-identified youth subcultures: difference in dress, in music, in drug of choice, in the favored mode of transport...everythin g. This obsessive focus on not just standing out, but standing out just so - on showing the world precisely the right angle of a hat, length of a coat, shortness of hair - has defined many a subculture since. We recognize b-boys, ganguro girls, and straightedge punks by such deployments, among many, many other identifiable groups. (It's not just a youth thing, either: leath ermen and the delightfully recrudescent roller derby culture are largely adult phenomena.)

To a devotee of a given subculture, such matters, far from being a "narcissism of small differences," are a matter of pivotal import in framing how one presents oneself to the world: how we want to be seen, how we want others to understand us. But I'm getting older now, and further out of the loop, and I realize that just maybe I'm losing the ability to discern these differences in the people I pass walking down the street. I find myself asking, who and where are the new subcultures? And how do they choose to present themselves to us?

Some software I've been meaning to talk
about late ... 11/19/2003 08:08 PM

Some software I've been meaning to talk about lately:

Poisoned -- A P2P open-source file sharing application that aggregates "FastTrack (Kazaa, iMesh, Grokster), Gnutella(LimeWire, BearShare, Shareza), OpenNap (Napster), and OpenFT". If you really feel like paying for it, they have links to the EFF among others. One thing I find interesting about this app is that everybody has the username "poisoned" so who will the RIAA sue?

LaunchBar -- surely this has been blogged before here but LaunchBar is an app switching utility that has an uncanny ability to know which app you mean. I find myself using Expose and command-tab more now but others I know swear by LaunchBar.

iSeek -- Puts a search box in your menu bar, allowing you to search Google, Dictionary.com, and wikipedia easily.

iChatStatus -- a great, dorky little open source app that will display what music you're listening to (from iTunes) over iChat.

Scrooge -- The True Meaning of Xmas? 12/08/2003 11:42 AM
Scrooge was onto something. "'At this festive season of the year, it is more than usually desirable that we should make some slight provision for the poor and destitute, who suffer greatly at the present time.' Oh? And they don't suffer in January or February? They don't feel hungry in July and August? Why should it not be just as 'desirable' to help out these wretches in those months? Why not go further, in fact? Why not make some 'slight provision' for the poor and destitute every single day of the year?"
