Flame Lily (ZW - National flower of Zimbabwe): Author Proposal Form - Harvard book store - carrying a title of a book * Exploring if the Harvard book store would carry my 1st book "Naked Harbin Ethnography," and 4 books of poetry, and how * * * A further Valentine's Day question: can you all figure out as MDs, scientists, geneticists, and with expertise in vaccines too, how to help us all live for millions of years as individual body minds or organisms so we can also celebrate Valentine's Days for millions or billions of years ahead too (and as 25 year olds some of this time)? :) Might we also explore doing this in a realistic virtual earth for genetics / genomics and in conjunction with Avatar Agent Electronic Health Records even - and at MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, based out of Canyon 94516?

Ma, All, 

Exploring if the Harvard book store would carry my 1st book "Naked Harbin Ethnography," and 4 books of poetry, and how -

And this 

Fascinating instructive history - and re his MOTHER who ran 2 early Harvard bookstores 

"Frank was helped and tutored by the store’s five dedicated employees, and he did his best to run the Harvard Square store while his mother ran the two satellite stores."

Let me know what you think. Let's explore opening this flagship MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch bookstore on Walnut Street together ... (Further World University & School academic bookstores on University avenue in Palo Alto and Berkeley OR NOT for some years? ... in addition to MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch bookstores in Chennai India in Tamil Nadu in the Tamil language, and in Mexico City in Spanish, - in addition to in the fairly recently closed Walmart in the Waterworks Mall in Pgh near Fox Chapel?)  

Ma, would you like to meet for lunch at Moulin tomorrow Wednesday near the upcoming WUaS bookstore? 

Fond regards, Scott 

Ma, All, 

Greetings everyone! As a follow up:

Adding the book "Naked Harbin Ethnography" to the Harvard bookstore (see entry info below) went smoothly, (but am not sure what this means) - and the World Univ & Sch WUaS bookstore got a new free database airtable out of this, and as a consequence - https://www.airtable.com/about - which WUaS may be able to use to begin our bookstore AI data sources, and especially since Harvard bookstore may use this too. This fascinating and instructive history of the Harvard Bookstore  - https://www.harvardsquare.com/history/historical-sites/harvard-book-store/ - mentioning 2 satellite bookstores that the founder's mother ran ... could certainly be a plan for the flagship WUaS bookstores in Pittsburgh too ... and as they begin to stream their possible invent-the-bookstore-anew with Google Street View with time slider GMaps GEarth with film to 3d Apps and AI Multimedia Augmented Reality hologram physical-digital #RealisticVirtualEarthForLegoRobotics in-stores information technologies around the world.

Ma, shall we explore visiting the Chase bank after eating lunch at Moulin restaurant in Shadyside ? Perhaps we could even meet Shady Side Academy and Harvard alumnus, and jP Morgan Chase Pgh Managing Director Michael Foster after lunch - if he might be there, sinchew I think he has an office there. 

In some of this moving beyond the Harvard bookstore innovation thinking - 

Just shared this this morning with a co-author of the Harvard Bookstore instructive history, now the executive director of a Historical Society in Taunton, MA, - not that far from Cuttyhunk -

An anthropology of Harbin Hot Springs, virtual Harbin, the 1960s forward, counterculture, virtual worlds and information technology The book's target audiences are undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, information technology social scientists, Internet studies' researchers, academics interested in the "virtual," and people with a fondness for the 1960s. My book comes into conversation with Tom Boellstorff's "Coming of Age in Second Life: An Anthropologist Explores the Virtually Human" (Princeton 2008), and could be read in academic courses in direct conversation with "Coming of Age in SL." For my next Harbin book, I plan to build a virtual Harbin, ideally in a movie-realistic interactive 3D virtual earth, Google-made, and do actual virtual comparative fieldwork, what I'm calling ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - http: //scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - as an innovative methodology in Anthropology. I'd like for readers to be able to visit virtual Harbin and have a Harbin experience, in their bathtubs, for example, for the meditative releasing action of the warm waters, - and write ethnographically about this. Naked Harbin is an actual-virtual ethnographic comparison based on extensive field work at actual Harbin Hot Springs, but comes into direct conversation with Boellstorff's "Coming of Age in Second Life," which is based on extensive field work in the 3D interactive virtual world of Second Life. My "Naked Harbin" also examines the significance of making a virtual field site for actual-virtual comparison. After you check in at the gate at Harbin, one resident who has worked there for years often says, "Go play." This ethnography of Harbin Hot Springs in northern California explicitly and theoretically brings together approaches to the comparative study of both the actual and virtual, by developing new methodologies in studying Harbin - as a kind of hippy or Alternative haven from modernity. Through this anthropological book and conceiving of virtual Harbin, you can begin not only to "be there" - to visit Harbin virtually in the text, as it were - but also to revisit the 1960s and its related freedom-seeking movements. Moreover, Harbin Hot Springs' clothing-optionality, spirituality and alternative culture are attractive in mysterious ways. In the way that Margaret Mead's work was theoretical and gained widespread attention at the same time, this book will appeal due to the broad interest in emerging interactive virtual worlds, as well as 1960's informed alternative Harbin's exotic, yet familiar, attractiveness, now mediated digitally. As information technologies and wondrous developments like virtual worlds continue to develop rapidly, I hope to engage you, the reader, further in the conversation about the creativity in countercultural thinking, in virtual worlds, in comparative ethnography, and in the experiences of interacting in this virtual Harbin, even as visitors to actual Harbin enjoy visiting this hot springs' retreat center. - Scott MacLeod http: //www.scottmacleod.com/ActualVirtualHarbinBook.html Academic Press at World University and School http: //worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html

Now how to explore be able to project a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs inside all the WUaS bookstores in all 200 countries as part of 1 realistic virtual earth, and re a realistic virtual earth for history, for soaking, and for STEM and brain research - and think Google Street View with time slider, GMaps (much used), GEarth, TensorFlowAI and little Pegman becoming Avatar Agent Electronic Health Records, digital twins too ... and at the GCellView GMoleculeView ... and similar ...

with this in mind too -
