Physics and Metaphysics ... About the Author Abstract Prolegomenon to a Metaphysics of Virtual Reality If the medium is the message, what is the message of virtual reality? This question is perhaps too simple a formulation of a very complex inquiry. Usually, decades elapse before we are able to gauge the pervasive impact of new technologies. However, extant communication, philosophical, psychological, and physical theory can be applied to this question in hopes of pointing to an answer. In formulating his concept of medium as message, communication theorist Marshall McLuhan explained media as extensions of the human body, whether of the senses, of the organs, or of the limbs. This idea of "organ projection" perhaps goes back as far as Aristotle, but it was Ernst Kapp who in 1877 formulated this concept in his Grundlinien einer Philosophie der Technik

About the Authors Abstract This paper explores the social interaction among participants in a church service in an online multi-user virtual reality (VR) environment. It examines some of the main features of prayer meetings in a religiously-oriented virtual world and also what sets this world apart from other virtual worlds. Next, it examines some of the issues of research ethics and methods that are raised in the study of online behavior in virtual worlds. The paper then analyzes the text exchanges between participants in a virtual church service and some of the ways in which these compare with the content of a conventional church service. Finally, the paper draws out some implications for our understanding of the relation between interaction in the virtual and in the "real" world. Introduction It is now a commonplace that shifts in the nature and structure of communications have profound social and cultural effects. The challenge to the institutional authority of the Roman Catholic Church provided by the advent of printing, production of the Bible in the vernacular, and widespread dissemination of reformist teachings are obvious examples. In this century, fundamentalist and evangelical Christians have increasingly harnessed radio and television to spread their message (Stacey and Shupe, 1982; Hadden 1988). Although, as Stacey and Shupe point out, the extent and impact of this development have been exaggerated, the "electronic church" is now a palpable presence in the United States.

COLLABORATIVE FILTERING WORKSHOP March 16, 1996 Berkeley, CA Summary of Proceedings Less than five years old, the concept of collaborative filtering has already spawned dozens of publicly available systems, several experimental proprietary systems, and even a few commercially available systems. On Saturday, March 16, 1996, 50 researchers in the academic and business worlds gathered at the University of California-Berkeley to exchange ideas and experiences about these emerging filtering tools. The workshop was organized by the School of Information Management and Systems (SIMS), University of California at Berkeley and the Fisher Center for Information Technology and Management at the Haas School of Business; and sponsored by Infonautics Corporation and Verity Inc. The systems presented were: . Links to many of the systems may be found at: http://www.sims.berkeley.edu/resources/collab Additionally, an application called UPrint1 (Xerox Parc) and two enabling platforms for collaborative filtering were discussed. This summary of proceedings provides an overview of the systems, application and infrastructure discussed at the workshop; highlights the development concerns they share in common; and touches upon some issues up ahead. The summary concludes with a list of next steps suggested at the workshop and information about joining a Web forum on collaborative filtering.

Dennis notices in the Tuesday, (Aug. 18, 1998) Wall Street Journal that Toys R Us net tumbled 63% largely due to a lack of new hits. It occurs to him that they may be a prime candidate for knowledge management consulting aimed at increasing innovation. He wonders what the current relationship, if any, is between IBM and Toys R Us. After wandering around www.toysrus.com and www.ibm.com for about 40 minutes, he doesn't find anything really relevant. He tries to recall if he knows anyone who ever worked at Toys R Us but draws a blank. He considers checking a consulting data bank, but isn't sure where to look. It isn't so much a particular competency that he's interested in as in getting a sense of what Toys R Us is really like; how to approach them; what works and what doesn't work with this particular company or with Toy companies in general. Dennis then recalls that he is supposed to be summarizing his last engagement with 3M. He grimaces, realizing that he has only been 30% utilized this month, but begins the onerous task of entering information into various fields. After an hour, he looks back over his work and has the distinct feeling that somehow, he hasn't really captured what was really important about the engagement. He shrugs, wondering whether anyone else will ever really read this anyway.

EXPLORING COLLABORATORY PARTNERSHIPS FOR INTERDISCIPLINARY UNDERGRADUATE SCINECE EDUCATION REFORM by Norman Chonacky - The Evergreen State College, and James Myers - The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Introduction The goal of the CURE is to bring science resources from PNNL into undergraduate institutions to reduce the distance between science education and science practice. It has been under development for more than two years. An article in the spring edition of this Quarterly described both this project and its research-based antecedent at the PNNL's Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory (EMSL). The present article will build on the earlier one by presenting some of the details and results from an exploration of the CURE concept conducted in an intensive, three-day workshop at PNNL last October. The EMSL is a Department of Energy facility in Richland Washington at the site of the Hanford reservation where the DOE produced plutonium for fifty years. EMSL's mission is to accomplish basic research that will facilitate the decontamination and clean-up of this site. The EMSL is richly endowed with supercomputing facilities, advanced instrumentation compatible with its mission, and some of the best scientific research minds in the country. Its research mission is accomplished by a number of programs and labs. These programs focus on developing a molecular-level understanding of physical, chemical, and biological processes that underlie environmental remediation, waste processing and storage, and human health effects. Its approaches to its research are interdisciplinary, including fundamental molecular science, measurement science, its macromolecular structure and dynamics program, and its theory, modeling, and simulation program. Among the EMSL's facilities are its cluster dynamics lab, surface kinetics lab, nanometer surface mapping and spectroscopy lab, a gigahertz NMR, and its molecular science computing facility. It is well beyond the scope of this article to describe EMSL research or resources in any detail. However, to supply context for our analysis, Table 1 briefly illustrates EMSL research.

Defining " Collective Intelligence " For a collection of 17 "collective intelligence" definitions by diverse "collective intelligence" authors, click here Note: Collective intelligence is only part of co-intelligence I believe there is a rich and diverse field of study and practice which concerns itself with "collective intelligence." However, "collective intelligence" lacks an agreed-on definition. If we wish to facilitate cross-fertilization and co-evolution among the diverse scholars and practitioners in this field, I suggest that we choose a definition that intentionally transcends our own sense of the subject to potentially embrace the perspectives of everyone else conceivably involved in it especially those who already use the term. This choice would be intended to help diverse people feel welcome and to reduce fruitless arguments about the "proper" meaning of the term. In this spirit, I suggest the broadest definition of collective intelligence is simply this:

OWN-BODY USE FOR THE PERCEPTION OF THE PARTNER'S AFFECTS, About empathy and the concept of BODY-ANALYSER jacques.cosnier@wanadoo.fr http://gric.univ-lyon2.fr / The body analyser hypothesis can be formulated in the following way: during a face-to-face interaction, partner A uses his/her own body as an echo to his/her partner's body, whose "echo-ised" pattern contributes to experiencing the same feelings as the partner's, and facilitates the interpretation of the partner's thoughts. The crucial point is that people may use their own body as the means of feeling each other's affects. Empirical approach: A previous approach was done by studying "mirroring" in face-to-face interaction(COSNIER,J.,BRUNEL,M.L.,1994,1996,BRUNEL,M-L.,MARTINY,C., COSNIER,J.,1996) The present poster will show data from two other, more experimental, settings.

Hypothesis: if a subject is asked to perform a graphic representation of emotions he/she will refer to his/her own facial expressions.

The Honor System A Booklet for Faculty February 1995 Revision The Board of Control c/o Dean of Students 102-31 California Institute of Technology Pasadena, California 91125 HTML version by Chris Bryant Table of Contents Philosophy of the Honor System The Honor System and Undergraduates Tests Homework and Laboratory Assignments ... The Board of Control Bylaws Philosophy of the Honor System Every community, either through accident or conscious design, adopts certain levels of accepted conduct. With unfortunate frequency, the standards adopted officially and unofficially by academic communities are founded on a "lowest common denominator" of human behavior. It is considered a fact of life at many colleges that intensive proctoring, special examination booklets, and energetic suspicion on the part of the faculty are required to achieve some semblance of honesty in the majority of students. The Caltech community has had the privilege of disregarding these pessimistic traditions. The name given to the official and practiced ethical code of our community is the "Honor System." The Honor System embodies our mutual trust and respect. The Honor System makes Caltech a better and more enjoyable place to work and live because it affords to each person within the Caltech community the trust and freedom that honesty merits. As such, only one guideline is necessary to protect our community: "No one shall take unfair advantage of any other member of the Caltech community." Because of its nature, it must apply to all of the community, everywhere within the community. It is not restricted to transactions of a purely academic nature between students and faculty, but also binds students in their non-academic relations with any other member of the community.
