Next: Glory bush: Universal Translator THROUGH a Digital Virtual Earth, Libraries in ALL 7,929 languages, Wikidata / wiki 3D interactive virtual earth libraries (building on Markus's beautiful maps, for example) will create digital libraries in all 7,929 languages re my post from yesterday, but concerning digital readable books "in the stacks," [Wikidata] New Wikidata maps, In what ways could such Commons' photos/images with millions of coordinates, related video resources, and other related Wikipedia items be incorporated into a 3D film-realistic interactive wiki-informed virtual world - think Google Earth with OpenSim, Second Life, Illustris + - and in a way that's wiki-buildable, and could be used even for STEM-research (e.g. mapping in specific photos and videos from the various archaeological digs at Troy), and decade-by-decade to begin, even, for a kind of historical reference time frame virtual-world mapping?, Wikidata / wiki 3D interactive virtual earth libraries but concerning digital readable books "in the stacks," Will every book in every language eventually get a Wikidata Q-item reference with coordinates and be includable in such a wiki virtual earth? And become a significant basis of an universal translator from these stacks in a virtual earth?

Dear Bon (and Merry), 

Greetings. I just posted 3 new Reed College federal work study (FWS) volunteer/intern jobs in Symplicity yesterday (to be finalized in August) for the new host startup World University and School, of which I'm the founder, president and current developer, for 2015-2016, and Merry can't see them. Simplicity says these job postings are currently drafts and are scheduled to be posted visibly between 8/31 and 9/30/15. They are

Managing Academic Tutor (ID 28068) - 

Academic Tutor - Sciences, STEM & Computer Science (ID 28075) - 

Academic Tutor - Humanities, Languages, Social Sciences (ID 28077)
These new jobs are listed at this login - (... @worlduniversityandschool.org ... ). 

Could you possibly help Merry see these, as well as other possible Reedie interns see these who might be interested in planning now for 2015-2016 FWS opportunities - and with these great and creative WUaS academic internship possibilities? 

Also who has access to seeing these Symplicity listings once they're public? Could any Reed alumnus/ae with a Reed Iris account see them, for example? How would, for example, Sandesh A. who just graduated from Reed in June in Physics see these listings, now or in August? Merry, he and I all met together during Reunions a few weeks ago (and Sandesh also attended my Paideia workshop in January). Or could Gantt who was at Reed with me in the early 1980s, for example? Also, is it possible to display these job postings from Symplicity to non-Reedies as VOLUNTEER opportunities before mid-August as well? (If these work out the next 2 FWS job postings will be academic tutor positions "on the teaching side" for "Countries" and "Music" I think).

Merry will be away from Reed until around August 3rd, but I'd love to get this sorted out this week if possible, please. 

These will be the very first jobs that World University and School creates, if this works out, and WUaS would like to become a significant academic job generator and online in many languages! 

Thank you (and nice to meet you here). 
All the best, 
Scott '85

Markus, Emil and Wikidatans, 

Building on the beautiful maps-with-Wikipedia entries that you just created

...


Will every book in every language eventually get a Wikidata Q-item reference with coordinates and be includable in such a wiki virtual earth? 

Best, 
Info (Scott))
