connecting with the 'societies' of either place, SF Bay Area, or Pgh PA? 



Wednesday, October 12, 2022

Dear Ma, Larry, All, 

Greetings! 

These pictures just emerged on my smartphone ... and somehow regarding 'connecting' with the "society" of 'being in the woods,' travelling, and hiking :)

In the woods in #CA #NH #OR recently ~
https://photos.app.goo.gl/5S3fvAGHStNJxjTy9 #MtTamalpais #MountainTheater #MarinCounty #SFBayArea #PacificCrestTrail #Canyon94516 How to #WikiAdd to make #3D & #VirtualReality & #AugmentedReailty in #RealisticVirtualEarthForTraveling for #VirtualHiking #wuAsVR?

Again, 
It took awhile to get these 9/17/22 WUaS Minutes' sent - 
 partly due to my cross-country trip re asylum seeking.

Now it's time to find a partner to begin a family in Pittsburgh.

Not sure how well I'm connecting with the 'societies' of either place, as an individual with a kind of Friendly leading in developing WUaS - in the SF Bay Area or in Pittsburgh, - and in thinking of moving back to the SF Bay Area in September 2023 ... especially if living beyond 122 years of age due to genetic revolution drug therapies is emerging. 

Appreciating family friend and brilliant Lacanian language oriented (the speech act) psychiatrist George Alexander MD's thinking about individualism, as I seek to pair bond (pairbondage is a John Money PhD term - http://scottmacleod.com/JohnMoneyConceptsOfDeterminism.html) ... and with my slightly hippy inclinations, many decades past the 1970s. Women seem feminine in a quite familiar way in Pittsburgh somehow. 

Time to find a LIFE PARTNER here and begin a family in Pittsburgh initially, but how, beyond circulating - (through an extended WUaS Google Co-Working Space network possibly or Shady Side Academy networking?)? 


Just texted my mother - 

"Hi Ma, from a beautiful 'hollow' near Phipps' conservatory on a little hike ... See you next week for lunch then ... Phipps' cafe was just closing (after a hair cut along the Fox Chapel strip) when I got there so, parking in the median area, will walk some more then go to the Carnegie Library Oakland to BEGIN a FAMILY and my next book too on the information age and the global university  ... How was your day :)?"


At the CARNEGIE Library in OAKLAND yesterday, I WAS ASKING a librarian at an information desk ABOUT how to get Alfred Chandler's the "Inventing the Electronic Century: The Epic Story of the Consumer Electronics and Computer Industries" (Harvard 2001) - in preparation for my next book in 2023 on the Information Age and the Global University based on an  AMAZING course I teach (and taught at Chatham Univ in 2007 too) - and it took 5-10 minutes to ask the question, get some info, set up my interlibrary loan account, find out the library had the book but now doesn't, and that it will take 2-3 WEEKS in the information age to get the book ILL - and, after texting you, there was an attractive 29 yo something woman standing nearby ... was she available even somehow ? ... in a time when many at this library are still wearing Coronavirus pandemic masks curiously culturally (why?), but who wasn't a MD I think, with no other interaction - AND THEN I RECALLED the online "OPEN LIBRARY" 
(from the Internet Archive from Brewster Kahle, Chris Freeman, ... Larry Lessig), signed in after many years, Found "Inventing the Electronic Century," and STARTED to LISTEN TO and READ together the book right then and there in no time. (I've asked Carnegie librarian Jen Styran here about World Univ & Sch collaborating with the Carnegie library for WUaS University libraries for our WUaS students, AND I couldn't find any books in the Open Library by Manuel CASTELLS, for example, who originally taught the UC Berkeley course on "Society and Information Technology" (see too - http://globetrotter.berkeley.edu/people/Castells/castells-con0.html) which I learned much from). 

All a bit ironic regarding World Univ & Sch university libraries in 200 countries, the speed of the information age - and. CC4 OCW.MIT.EDU -centric wiki World Univ & Sch seeking to facilitate world class home libraries for students? ... and newly here, and seeking, I haven't connected with my life partner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, yet, but am continuing to circulate ... and wonder about Shady Side Academy's Homecoming this weekend and possibly meeting a MD seeking a life partner born around 1995??

Moving back to the SF Bay Area in September 2023 if I could get a house in newly safe Canyon 94516 for a song (and for a developing the new physical WUaS Academic Medical Center with warm water cure & WUaS Longevity Genetics' Institute) - with my new life partner - has much appeal!

retweeting - 

Two important breakthroughs from
@GoogleAI
 this week - Imagen Video, a new text-conditioned video diffusion model that generates 1280x768 24fps HD video. And Phenaki, a model which generates long coherent videos for a sequence of text prompts. https://imagen.research.google/video/
