Hi B.A.S.K.,

Here's yet another fascinating MIT Media Lab Joi ITO interview with the 12th in the line of a Japanese textile family, now a Directors' Fellow at the MIT Media Lab - old world comes to space age (old world of Japanese traditional society comes to the space age of the MIT Media Labs innovations) - and it's in Japanese. There's so much settled-ness, understanding, and civility in Japanese culture and identity in this conversation - loving their language. (Does Joi mention too "tie die" which doesn't get into the subtitles?) As Joi says here: weaving Media, Art and Science - the mission of the Media Lab - together, isn't easy at all surprisingly, and it looks like Mr. Hosoo Masataka may do that literally at the Media Lab.

Curious how this Media Lab interview re new fabrics - could be a metaphor for WUaS weaving all 7,097 languages together into World University and School, coding-wise. Japanese identity and culture seems to shape a space for scions if this is what Mr. Hosoo Masataka is. Joi is so brilliant, and harmonizing too. :)

Enjoy,
Scott

Electrostatic Playground. A virtual reality sandbox where you can see & touch physics. My team's new work. https://t.co/x252fcFC2F@medialab

How to weave in all 7,097 living languages here in to a realistic virtual earth for ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy? Given the "virtual world" graphics in the above INCREDIBLE team video by Scott Greenwald and friends, I assume the World Wide Web "markup languages" at the cellular, molecular & atomic levels will be similar and emerge from HTML 5.

Purple Hair! - some of the team in this AMAZING video seem to be wearing their MIT un-dress code "uniforms" ... :)

... great for wiki-building a realistic virtual Harbin as well.

Hi Scott,
Pretty cool stuff. I knew people in ESG - but I was doing physics at the time at MIT.

Too swamped to too teach at moment, but perhaps sometime.

I am juggling fast here, so apologies for overly brief response - more when I can.

Thanks, -Ji

Thanks for this, Heartsong,

This realistic virtual earth / cosmos (observable universe, by one definition) as good work - for many many - won't get built in a day, or even in a week, with a day of rest ... will be an unfolding building project, for people in all ~200 nation states and 8k languages, all ... Lots of building, lots of work ...

Hoping WUaS can organize - work-creation wise - a basic universal incomes, and perhaps the administrative structures (tax systems may be inevitable - and re bitcoin and blockchain) for this in all 200 countries too.

Hi E.L.M,

Here's some further MIT Media Lab brilliance ...

... Kind of earth shaking when we'll be able to feel the virtual world's electromagnetic static fields - in so many of the ways we experience reality - and so so much more in these regards ...

Check out MIT Media Lab's Scott Greenwald's video herein

Did you study with MIT Physics' professor John Belcher in the late 1960s, L?

Hope WUaS can create 1 million jobs in 8 k languages ... as well as plan for a basic universal income (including 're anticipated work loss created by AI and robotics) ...

Earthy quaky, warmy pooly,
Scott
