The Tyranny of Labels

The Tyranny of Labels 02/10/2004 02:53 AM
Just about two weeks ago, Robert Boynton wrote a great piece for the Times about the free culture movement. It's not available for free from the Times anymore, though if you run this Google search, you'll find lots of places where it is archived. The Progress and Freedom Foundation has now launched an attack on "the movement." So let me note two important quibbles I have with an otherwise great article. First is scope: There is no complete history of this movement that does not mention Pam Samuelson, Jessica Litman, Eben Moglen, and more recently, Julie Cohen. Harvard's an important place in this, no doubt. But it is not accurate to speak as exclusively about Harvard. Litman and Samuelson made these issues salient. Moglen has been guiding the Free Software Foundation since the start. Second is spin: I know the world loves to simplify, but it is totally misleading to frame this issue as left vs. right. The name "Copy Left" is silly both because it is not true to the real "copyleft" movement -- started by RMS, et al., and because this movement is not a movement of "the Left." Look at the briefs in the Supreme Court in the Eldred if you want a flavor of this. Phyllis Schlafly and Milton Friedman are not leftists. It is important and great that Boynton's article made these ideas clearer to the world. But for those who read no more deeply than headlines, I'm afraid the real meaning of the Free Culture movement will be lost. UPDATE: Turns out there is a free link to the Times article still available, but you have to find it using Aaron's amazing tool (which I had stupidly missed before). UPDATE v2: Tim Phillips comments that the list should include Dennis Karjala and Neil Netanel. Well, actually the list of people who have been writing in this field is extremely long, and Neil's writing -- both about the importance of copyright and the importance of limits to copyright -- is very important. But I didn't mean to describe all of them. Dennis does deserve special mention for the extraordinary work he did at the beginning of the battle over term extensions, and throughout the life of the Sonny Bono Act.

The tyranny of TiVo

The tyranny of TiVo 11/12/2003 01:06 PM
Well, not the tyranny of TiVo specifically, but rather how the rise of the digital video recorder, in perfectly dialectical fashion, has resulted in people feeling both more and less in control of their television watching. On one hand DVRs let you take control of what you TV shows watch and when you watch them, but on the other it also creates a massive backlog of television shows that some people begin to feel buried underneath and that they have a frantic, desperate need to catch up on.

Tinkering with the Tyranny of Copyright
http://www.nytimes.com/2004/01/25/magazine/25COPYRIGHT.html

William Fisher, director of the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard Law School, has turned his attention to solving the seemingly intractable conflict between the recording industry and file-sharing music fans. His proposed plan, which would enable the entertainment industry to restructure its business model without resorting to micropayments, could also have ramifications for copyrighted digital text-based content. As a first step, all works capable of being transmitted online would be registered with a central office, which would then monitor how frequently the work is used. The work's creator would be compensated on that basis using funds collected via a tax on various content-related devices, such as DVDs, blank CDs or digital recorders. Fisher agrees that such a radical overhaul of the current system would be difficult in today's tax-phobic political environment, but he says that his ideas have been received with great interest by the music and home video industries whose business models are under siege. Fisher says that the likeliest locale for putting his ambitious scheme to work would be in countries such as Croatia or Brazil, which are neither so developed that they have signed on to international copyright protocols nor so underdeveloped that they are desperate to do so. "The hope is in the rainforest," says Fisher, in countries that "are more like the United States was before 1890, when we were a 'pirate' nation." As to whether such a system would ever work in the U.S., Fisher says perhaps after the various current schemes fail, his approach will be more attractive: "What is involved here is nothing less than the shape of our culture and the way we think of ourselves as citizens."

Dealing With Playlist Anxiety

Dealing With Playlist Anxiety 04/06/2005 09:36 PM
It's been a few years since the concept of playl ist anxiety was first discussed. With the ease of sharing playlists via iTunes or other music software, it appears that some listeners freak out over what others might think of their music-listening tastes, and some even change what they listen to in such environments to protect how others might view them. Apparently, that concept is interesting enough that some researchers are doing a study of how playlist anxiety impacts people in an office environment. The study is pretty simple, so far, and only looked at a very small group of people, but it is an interesting subject. It appears that at least some people do change their listening habits out of fear of what others might think, and it seems likely that some have crafted different "public" and "private" playlists to protect their own egos from being slammed for listening to too much Britney Spears. The research also found that people generally aren't that interested in browsing through other's playlists, but will take a recommendation from someone and go searching to hear that particular artist or song. It seems that random browsing is too hit or miss to be worthwhile. Either way, the various download music stores might find such data useful in figuring out what kinds of things to promote. It also raises interesting questions about the whole issue of "the long tail." Will people shy away from certain niche artists for fear of being considered outside of the norm? Or is that canceled out by listening to niche artists to prove that you're independent and cool when it comes to music?

John Shirley comments on Scientific
American article about "Tyranny of
Choice" 04/26/2004 01:00 PM
Writer John Shirley has some interesting things to say about a new Scientific American article called "Tyranny of Choice" (paid subscription required to read article, you can read more about the article on Alternet.)

They suggest there are two basic types of choosers, Maximizers and Satisficers. The former aim to make the best possible choice in a near obsessive way, the latter tend to settle for 'good enough'. Maximizers spend a long time shopping, can't make up their minds what to buy for a gift, channel surf like a cokehead searching through the rug for fallen powder...

Maximizers in particular are prone to unhappiness in our society--there are too many choices, just too damn much input in general, and they can't deal with it. Satisficers are having a hard time too; they tend to go to lower stress options--and those are harder to find. But they're less likely to be depressed and suicidal.

More Modern Anxiety Disorders -- This
Time It's Broadband 04/08/2005 06:26 PM
For some time, we've been hearing about disorders related to information overload in our modern world of instant communications. Those early theories of Internet-related stress problems seem quaint by today's standards, in which each technological advance brings with it more angst. Two days ago it was iTune s playlist anxiety, today Om Malik discusses his experience with In ternet anxiety disorder, as he calls it. Besides the standard offline media, wired/wireless phone calls and messages, he's also inundated with IMs, hundreds of unanswered emails, and thousands of unread newsreader posts. Everything's backlogged, and he can't keep up. The culprit in his mind is broadband, which could bring on the next big malaise of the century. Yes, we are swimming in a sea of information, and it does have its downside. But technology doesn't seem completely to blame here. Perhaps it's more of a reflection of our culture and our need for immediate and constant communication, gratification, stimulation, [fill in the blank]-tion. Stress comes more from the use of the technology than its mere presence. In fact, if technology had a hand creating the problem, maybe it can also help fix it. Or maybe it's all just a vicious cycle. Tools such as newsreaders are designed to save time by filtering information, but instead they can generate more. So, next there will be a technology designed to deal with that problem -- and it will create a different issue, which will require another technology. What were we just saying about autom ation creating new jobs?

THE TYRANNY
OF STRUCTURELESSNESS

THE TYRANNY
OF STRUCTURELESSNESS 12/22/2004 01:16 AM

Several of my key solutions to making our world better -- Natural Enterprises, True Collaboration and Model Intentional Communities most notably -- rely on the ability of groups of people to self-manage more effectively than large hierarchical organizations are, or can be, managed top-down. Derek Woolverton over at Technical Difficulties...  commented on my post on WL Gore ("no ranks, no titles, no bosses") that self-managed organizations, if they don't have any rules, can be much worse than badly-managed ones. He sent me a link to a manifesto written back in 1970 by Jo Freeman called The Tyranny of Structurelessness, lamenting how the women's liberation movement of that day had degenerated into anarchy, cliquishness and petty politics for exactly that reason. Her article lays out these seven principles of democratic structuring for self-managed organizations: Delegate specific authority to specific individuals for specific tasks by democratic procedures, after they've expressed an interest or willingness to do it. Don't just let people choose their own jobs. Require all those to whom authority has been delegated to be responsible to all those who selected them. The group retains the ultimate say over how the power is exercised. Distribute authority among as many people as is reasonably possible, to prevent monopoly of power and encourage learning and consultation. Rotate tasks among individuals often but not too often, so people learn many jobs adequately and to avoid turf wars. Allocate tasks using objective criteria: competency, interest, responsibility, and opportunity to learn new things with appropriate mentoring. Diffuse information to everyone in the organization as frequently as possible. The more one knows about how things work, the more politically effective one can be. Provide equal access to resources (equipment, skills and information) needed by the group. Freeman's manifesto is dated, but these principles make sense when dealing with the proclivity (I think it's learned, so I won't say 'natural tendency') of people in groups to dominate, bully, gang up, hoard, compete, take perverse pleasure in others' failure, and do things without adequate consultation. My question is whether you can get people to follow these principles. If you have to impose them on the group, haven't you already made the group less democratic by that imposition? And can you impose them on a group? My (admittedly idealistic) proposal in Natural Enterprise is that self-selection of the group should prevent these problems from occurring in the first place. Those who are disinclined to work for someone who tends to want to dominate will select the dominant types out of the group. Those who want to be dominated, to be told what to do and how to do it, will self-select into groups that include that type of individual. Furthermore, in Natural Enterprise, the self-selecting group's first task is to set out the mutually agreeable principles by which it will operate. Of course, this is a learning process, one that will be very new to most of us, so it should not be surprising that it takes some time for the self-selection process to work. In its early days, every Natural Enterprise will be expelling those who didn't work out, allowing others who didn't understand what they were getting into to select themselves out, and others to be invited or opt in in their place. Every system is messy when it first begins. And I have a great belief in instinct -- it is rare when my first instinctive impression of a work colleague, positive or negative, has proven dead wrong. Nature has given us this marvelous gift of instinct to make the process of group self-selection easier and more reliable. In the aforementioned article on collaboration I described a four-step program for True Collaboration: teaching it as a core skill, recognizing and rewarding its successes, self-assessing our competency at it, and practice, practice, practice. I have seen domineering people humbled by this process, but I have also seen egotistical, inflexible and unimaginative leaders completely ignore brilliant collaborative work-products. I'm the first to confess that collaboration is not currently something most of us do well, but I believe strongly that it works, makes us stronger and more resilient and adaptable as a species, and that for that reason the ability to do it well should be in our genes. But I have also seen petty despots and cliques who have ruined the communities and organizations they preside over, even though some of them were elected by a majority and believe fervently that they're acting in the majority's interest, by minimizing their diversity (in every sense of the word) and essentially expelling anyone with different views. And I've seen dictators and cult leaders who rule with an iron fist, some of whom are extraordinarily popular, even revered, despite flagrantly violating these principles of democracy, egalitarianism and collaboration. Are these behaviours -- excessive dominance, bullying, ganging up, hoarding resources, competing instead of collaborating, and doing things without consulting others -- unlearnable? And how about the behaviours that make these foolish behaviours possible -- others' submissiveness, cowardice, self-victimization, self-isolation, passivity, meekness, resignation -- can they be unlearned too? Is it naive and unrealistic to think that we all have something valuable to contribute, we all instinctively seek and belong to communities, and, given a chance, we could and would all participate as equals in every community and organization to which we belong? I appreciate that nature has endowed us with dominant and submissive genes, to establish a natural pecking order so that, even without language, we can maintain order in our groups. But in nature there is enormous collaboration and sharing of resources, infinitely more peace and equality and less suffering than we find in most human institutions. I'm not saying we need to learn to be exactly equal, just that by 'ousting the egos and outing the wallflowers', we need to learn to be more egalitarian. I'd love to know more about how WL Gore really works, and how it doesn't work (Derek suggests the power vacuum spawns horrendous political infighting and undemocratic decision-making). Anyone know people working at Gore, or other organizations with 'no ranks, no titles, no bosses', who could share their lessons learned?

Theory Development for Organizational Platform of User Collaboration Innovation Community by Jen-Fang Lee and Chan Tzu-Ying
http://opensource .mit.edu/papers/leechan2.pdf

Abstract:
This study proposes the concept of the “User Collaboration Innovation Community”, tries to understand this new phenomenon by conducting projects where the opening of source software is the subject of this analysis, borrows the observation variables and propositions adopted by Mintzberg on structures of the innovative organization, and summarizes the opinions of scholars of organizational economics, the relationship between property rights and organization performance. This study further infers a series of conceptual framework and propositions on the relationships among “organization structure, property right, and organization innovation” for “the organizational platform of the user collaboration innovation community”. We expect that the construction of this concept framework will function as a concrete description and presentation of the innovation model of the User Collaboration Innovation Community and will serve as a clear path to be followed for continuous research in th
e future.

The Internet Is A Communications
Platform, Not A Content Platform

The Internet Is A Communications
Platform, Not A Content Platform 03/19/2005 03:17 AM
It seems that any time you hear someone saying they're trying to reach the "middle ground" on an argument, you might want to suspect their motives. That was the case a few months ago when some think tank wanted to reach a middle ground on file sharing, which was really a thinly veiled explanation for why the entertainment industry should control the internet. We've now got another one, which is even scarier. TheRegister has published an excerpt from a paper supposedly about "media literacy" which claims its looking for a " middle ground" between "etopians" who want the internet to remain open and the regulate and control crowd who want to ban and filter everything. However, the conclusions are anything but a middle ground. They're saying that people are stupid and can't handle the internet as is, and that there should be a separate internet that is more like TV, with acceptable providers handling the content, and acting as the guides to all the content out there. This is mischaracterizing the debate. It's not a middle ground at all, but a fairly radical solution. There's already a TV out there. This is designed from the wrong mindset. The internet is not a content platform, but a communications one. This article flips that around and assumes that it's a content platform -- for the sake of the content providers.
