Metaphysics, Book Alpha
Metaphysics, Book Alpha
06/26/2004 05:35 PMI 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...

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 AMThis 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
06/19/2004 01:25 PMDaniel 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.

world's biggest plane has started rolling off
assembly lines and is expected to take its first flight in March 2005.
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

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

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

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

study
04/29/2004 11:48 AMIt looks like it's all work and no play for game developers.
The International Game Developers Association (IGDA) has a white
paper titled "Quality of Life in the Game Industry: Challenges and
Best Practices." Some of the findings:
Crunch time is omnipresent, during which respondents work
65 to 80 hours
a week.
The average crunch work week exceeds 80 hours 13% of the
time.
Overtime is often uncompensated.
Spouses are likely to respond that "You work too much..." (61.5%);
"You
are always stressed out." (43.5%); "You don't make enough money."

capita. By World Bank rankings, that made EverQuest richer than India,
Bulgaria, or China, and nearly as wealthy as Russia. (by Clive
