lovesick dream - a metaphysics study

lovesick dream - a metaphysics study 04/09/2004 04:10 PM

i don't know how many ways are there to interpret a poem or a terse forth source code or if there's anything resemblance about the writing of an poem and writing of a piece of source code.

i simply present raw data here for my readers to draw their own conclusions. Amen.

Metaphysics, Book Alpha


Metaphysics, Book Alpha 06/26/2004 05:35 PM
I read Book Alpha of Aristotle's Metaphysics this afternoon (trans. Richard Hope). (A book is about 40 pages.) He reads like Bach sounds. Book Alpha takes on a different cast when you read it looking for clues about the way in which things organize themselves into genuses and species. For example, the book begins, famoulsy, "All men naturally have an impulse to get knowledge." This is not an unargued premise. Aristotle presents evidence for it: "A sign of this is the way we prize our senses." We most highly value sight, even when "we have nothing practical in view." Why?...

Reading Aristotle, Metaphysics Book Beta


Reading Aristotle, Metaphysics Book Beta 07/01/2004 03:43 PM
I've started re-reading Aristotle's Metaphysics (although if "re-reading" implies any serious memory of the first time, then we should remove the "re-") with an eye towards the role of categories and tree-like organizational structures. So far, that's turning out to be an oddly useful (= consistently distorting) lens. In Book Beta, Aristotle is still examining how others have approached the problem of what things are. Previous philosophers have made the mistake, he argues, of thinking that principles and classes have to be independent things; in fact, they believe principles are the most real and the most eternal. But then...

My quest for data comes to an end as the local 7-11 is no longer giving out iTunes cups and I can't seem to find any iTunes Pepsi bottles anymore. If you've been following my progress, the final tally was 5 for 7. Only two losers in seven outings, putting my winning percentage at 71%. Given that they claimed 33% would win, I'm either really lucky (doubtful), they wanted almost everyone to win, or demand wasn't nearly as high as they thought.

Dream job


Dream job 04/04/2005 12:36 AM

This news hasn't exactly been a secret up until now, but it hasn't been official either. Starting tomorrow, I'll be hanging up the Creative Commons jersey to start work full-time at Google, as a product advisor and eventually product counsel. Before I go, I have plenty to say about, and many people to thank for, the amazing experience Creative Commons has been.

Just over three years ago, I started work at Creative Commons with little idea of what I was getting into. It involved copyright, I knew, and it involved Lawrence Lessig, and that alone was enough to ditch my plans to practice law in New York. (Ok, practicing law wasn't too tough to pass up, but New York was.) It became clear shortly into the job that the decision was even better than I'd ever imagined. It was as if everything I'd done, in school, at work, and through my hobbies, had culminated in this position working for an embryonic nonprofit called Creative Commons.

Here are three little anecdotes that give a glimpse into how winding up at Creative Commons was, for me, like making a brand-new friend whom I felt I'd known forever.

In college, I played in a band. We weren't particularly good, but we had a great time, and over two years I learned the single most important lesson about creativity that I've learned to date: Next to romance (with which creativity shares a few features), making something with friends, with everyone contributing different but equal parts, has got to be the most fun thing in the world. It's also, I realized, the only way things really get made. I don't care if you're Bob Dylan -- nothing comes out of your own head and into life without the influence of others, whether living or dead. (Every time you pick up a guitar, you're collaborating with the dead.) I started looking more closely at CD liner notes, at writers' biographies, at the acknowledgements sections of books, looking for clues into the real story behind the creation of anything credited to only one person. I didn't find much, and I didn't understand why.

In law school, I wrote an article about the musical Rent -- not my favorite piece of art, by a long shot, but one with a great joint-authorship dispute at its center. The playwright worked closely with a dramaturge to get the show into Broadway shape, and pretty much everyone agreed that without the dramaturge's contributions, the final show would never have existed. Problem was, they had no contract, and no other paperwork demonstrating an intent to share authorship credit. So, a federal court gave the full copyright to the playwright. In the article I argued that it was nonsense to expect artists to begin a jam session by filling out paperwork. (If you've seen "Get Creative," our first flash movie, the line "we interrupt this brainstorm to call the lawyers" comes straight from that experience.) But, as sure I was that the rules were wrong, I had no idea what to recommend in their place.

By the time I finished school, and thanks to a lot of people at the Berkman Center, I was fully infected with the IP bug. I was genuinely obsessed with the riddle that we're all still trying to figure out: How will all this stuff work in the future? How can we keep up this technological progress without giving artists the shaft? I still didn't have an answer. I remember very well doing my first stab at public speaking on a panel at a conference in New York. Siva Vaidhyanathan also spoke, as did the Dead Kennedy's Jello Biafra. Biafra was railing against the music industry and professing his love for Napster (which was then at its peak), but also explaining how he didn't want his songs winding up in Coca-Cola commercials. I remember saying something like, "Hey, Jello, you can't have it both ways."

That statement ranks right up there with the time in 1995, when I told a scholarship interview committee that the Internet "was overrated," as the dumbest thing I've ever said.

It wasn't until I finally wrapped my brain around the idea behind Creative Commons, cooked up collaboratively by our board of directors, that I felt someone had begun to crack the riddle. That epiphany was the first of many in my three years here; over and over again I found myself the lucky steward of other people's amazing ideas. From our logo (thank you, Ryan Junell) to our icons (thanks, Molly) to the vision of iCommons (Lessig, Christiane, Roland) to the Tech Challenges page (Hal Abelson) to the sampling licenses (Negativland!) to the WIRED CD (Conde Nast and the whole editorial staff) to CC Mixter (Neeru) to CC Publisher (Nathan Yergler) to CC Search (Mike, Nutch, Yahoo!) to our site re-design (Matt, Adaptive Path) -- the list could go on and on -- I've had the chance to stand at the hub of a giant collaborative creation without really doing much of the creating. It's been a bit like being in a band, but I feel more like the guy behind the soundboard than one of the musicians. And I feel awfully fortunate to have been there to witness it all.

I'm sure that, in some form or other, I'll carry on with the CC effort. But in any case, I like to think that like Menudo or Spinal Tap, we're the kind of band that stays together regardless of the particular line-up at a given time.

(This is the first of a few posts I'd like to write before offically signing off. I'm a lame-duck with a few hours of bully-pulpit left, so bear with me.)

An Amateur's Dream


An Amateur's Dream 06/19/2004 01:25 PM

  • Daniel J. Watkin (NY Times): His Moment in the Sun. It was the ultimate in surround-sound, and not surprisingly, because I was sitting smack in the middle of the stage at Avery Fisher Hall, an amateur clarinetist embedded in the clarinet section of the New York Philharmonic.
  • Some people wish they could play center field for the San Francisco Giants. Watkin got his dream, to play with one of the world's great orchestras. What a cool story. Reading his account brought back some memories for me. My first "real" instrument was clarinet, which I started playing in third grade. I had to stop playing it (and the sax, which I took up in fifth grade) many years later when a ruined front tooth, from a bicycle accident, was replaced with a kind of dental bridge that didn't allow the kind of pressure you have to exert when playing a reed instrument. But I've always loved the clarinet's sound, whether it's in classical or jazz or just about any genre where the instrument makes an appearance. I never was nearly good enough on clarinet to have dreamed of playing in a serious orchestra. But in seventh grade, before my voice started to change, I was selected to join a soprano boys choir that performed in one of Bach's many masterpieces, the St. Matthew Passion, in New York's Carnegie Hall. I confess I was a bit bored when we weren't singing, but it was an amazing experience to stand on that grand stage.

The quarter-billion-dollar, twin-deck, four-aisle plane can carry 555 passengers. Thanks to its design's outsized wings, future versions of the economical plane may carry as many as 800 passengers.
    With the A380, Airbus hopes to do to Boeing what Boeing did to its competitors over 30 years ago with the 747. Already, Airbus Industrie has outsold and out-delivered Boeing for the last two years. But don't boycott just yet! It turns out the A380 is 51% American-made. Parts are so big they don't fit in this whale-like record-size transporter (though this Russian monster may have a claim); they are transported to Toulouse on a barge. More pics. Let's hope this latest high-tech aerospace gamble does better than the last one.
    Europe, of course (troll alert), already makes the world's biggest truck, the fastest trains, the best cars (sorry Japan), and the most successful rocket launchers.

The company had initially built itself on a single lead project in the late '80s: Indexing the Oxford English Dictionary. Doing a full-text index of such a massive work was considered impossible. Who could dream of indexing tens of thousands of pages, hundreds of thousands of words? But under the technical direction of Tim Bray, breakthroughs were made and full-text retrieval took an important step forward. Fifteen years later, Tim Bray and Open Text have moved onto other...

    Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech is still in copyright (as is almost everything else familiar in our lives), and Dr King's heirs strictly enforce the copyright. Wendy Seltzer points out what this means for free expression and political commentary.
    You can always quote a few lines without asking permission, but that's likely to be the same few lines that have become cliched with repetition. Quote the whole speech to make a more substantial point, and you face thousand-dollar license fee claims from the estate. Quote them to make a point critical of King, and you may be denied a license entirely.

    Kids' blogs a 'paedophile's dream': I don't think I'd ever let my kid have a blog. We've schooled him repeatedly on never giving anyone his real name on EverQuest. I think he calls himself Frank on that game.

    A forensic psychologist has warned that children's blogs pose new threat to children online. She said blogs are "a paedophile's dream", because of the insight they give into a child's life, habits and movements.

    [...] She said: "This [blogging culture] is just a paedophile's dream because you have children uploading pictures, giving out details of their everyday life because it's an online journal," BBC Online reports.

    New Type of "Game Night" at the Library?


    New Type of "Game Night" at the Library? 07/07/2004 01:15 AM

    Ernest Miller, proprietor of The Importance of..., received an interesting question from one of his readers.

    "I've been working on something else I think might be interesting- gaming at public libraries. I've been having some success on both ends- talking to some librarians who have staged successful 'game nights' as a way of getting teens into the library, as well as with people trying to have tournaments and in need of a cheap (or free), available venue.  Precedent seems to be key.  It's one of these 'well, if so-and-so signed off on this, I guess it's okay.' Seeming 'with it' is at a premium for libraries all over, as well as serving the community in novel ways, and in particular the teens, for most of whom going to the library is anathema. Could be good traction for that same 'unimpeachably good' quality we're looking for in early activities (who can be anything other than supportive of getting the teens 'off the streets and into the libraries'?). Games make libraries seem cool, and libraries legitimate games."

    Anyone know of a library doing this?
