The Fight Between Sharing Culture And
Owning Culture

The Fight Between Sharing Culture And
Owning Culture 06/22/2005 02:17 AM
It seems that museums are finally starting to realize that the digital age represents a real opportunity for them to reach many new people by digitizing their offerings and sharing the culture they represent across a much wider audience than a physical museum allows. It seems that many museums are having trouble figuring out how to digitize their collections, and would welcome help in doing so. However, another story points out how that can cause problems when the people involved get stuck on intellectual property issues. Apparently some people who created 3D digital versions of Michelangelo's David are freaking out that if they share the digitization without some form of copy protection people might (gasp!) share it without permission. Wait a second... isn't that what they should want? That would allow them to share the cultural wonder with many, many more people, and allow them to experience it in ways never possible before. That's a good thing, not something to be worried about. However, in an age where people seem to think that every idea, concept, software or piece of data needs to be "owned" and locked up, apparently it's the natural response -- and that's unfortunate for every culture.

Presents For Bad Kids Head To eBay,
Rather Than Kids

Presents For Bad Kids Head To eBay,
Rather Than Kids 12/27/2004 04:42 AM
Well, normally, people wait until after they've received presents to dump them on eBay. However, one father who felt his three sons were being particularly bad lately decided that to punish them he's putting their presents up for sale on eBay. To be honest, this sounds like a bit of a publicity stunt -- and it seems likely that, now that this is getting attention, that casino that seems to be buying e very random quirky auction item will snap this one up. Update: Whoops. It's apparently already happened. Indeed, the casino in question has d ecided to buy the undelivered presents. This is sort of an update on our story last year about how sellers were increasingly looking to use eBay as a publicity generating tool. It appears that's now being used by buyers to generate publicity, as well.

MP3 Players Aren't Just For Kids; In

MP3 Players Aren't Just For Kids; In
Fact They're Barely For Kids 12/19/2004 03:47 PM
The common bit of wisdom is that MP3s are a young person's technology. It's the teens and the folks just coming out of college that are the MP3 generation, after all, so they'd be the most likely to own an MP3 player, right? Not at all, apparently. A new study says that 90% of MP3 player owners over 34 years old. While this may have something to do with the high price of many of the best MP3 players, the numbers still don't seem right. It would be interesting to see the methodology behind this study. That's not to say that those over 34 aren't likely to own an MP3 player, but it's hard to believe that 90% of MP3 players go to those 35 and older.

If the people who beheaded (CNN) an American captive in Iraq -- and then tried to cloak their deed in the trappings of religious "dignity" -- think they have helped their cause, they are insane. They've only shown themselves to be murderous, sadistic thugs.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A8730-2003Nov23.html

A new study published in the journal Science looked at footnotes from scientific articles in three major journals (the New England Journal of Medicine, Science, and Nature) at 3 months, 15 months and 27 months after publication, and found that the prevalence of inactive Internet references grew during those intervals from 3.8% to 10% to 13%. In another recent study, one-fifth of the Internet addresses used in a Web-based high school science curriculum disappeared over 12 months, and a third study found that 40% to 50% of the URLs referenced in articles in two computing journals were inaccessible within four years. Brewster Kahle, widely admired for his creation of the Internet Archive project, says: "It's a huge problem. The average lifespan of a Web page today is 100 days. This is no way to run a culture."

The traditional way to say thanks is to contribute some code or documentation or maybe just a few nice words or a link from a visible place; but I wonder how well these services and software will survive the various threats, and I will go so far as to suggest that we invest a little bit of actual money into those things that we want to continue.

I'm going to NYC today for a meeting sponsored by the World Economic Forum tomorrow. I don't actually understand what the meeting is about or for, but the attendees seem to be about 35 people from the entertainment industry and a few miscellaneous others. The title of the event is "Barbarians at the Gate." Here's a draft of what I plan on saying during my 7 minute slot on the first panel of the morning. Your comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated because I'm feeling quite insecure about this: I'm a capitalist of sorts and a writer of sorts,...

Now that the pool of CC-licensed music has grown, we had a great deal of choices and as a result there are all sorts of songs in the mix. I've been listening to these songs for months and it's hard to pick favorites, they've all got some strengths. Don't miss the bonus remixes too, the creativity there was amazing.

Culture in a Perl

Culture in a Perl 08/11/2002 12:20 PM
Before I got completely caught up in the Perl culture, I was happy to do my own thing and not care what people thought of me. It was an enjoyable time. I could do what I wanted and say what I wanted. But as I got more and more involved, I realised that I was doing more things just to get people's attentions and say "Look at Simon! Isn't he doing clever stuff?". I felt less able to do things just for fun, or just for me, and I felt completely unable to express any sort of dissatisfaction with the way things were going in the Perl world. That would make me an outcast, and I didn't want to be an outcast. Got to fall into line. Don't criticise the popular people, or you'll be unpopular.

"tri" Simon, grow up - most big organisations or companies are like that.

The film is made from "ephemeral film," meaning film not copyrighted when originally published. The supply of such film officially ended in 1978, when all film is automatically (federally) copyrighted.
