The Dead Platform Graveyard: Lessons Learned | VisionMobile :: blog

by karlcow

Besides the iOS and Android platforms grabbing the industry headlines, there is an abundance of (over 25) platforms that didn't make it. Managing Director Andreas Constantinou recounts the graveyard of dead platforms and exactly what it takes to build a successful platform today.

Information overload, the early years - The Boston Globe

by karlcow

Complaints about information overload, usually couched in terms of the overabundance of books, have a long history — reaching back to Ecclesiastes 12:12 (“of making books there is no end,” probably from the 4th or 3d century BC). The ancient moralist Seneca complained that “the abundance of books is distraction” in the 1st century AD, and there have been other info-booms from time to time — the building of the Library of Alexandria in the 3d century BC, or the development of newspapers starting in the 18th century.

Brainsturbator

by borsky
"Brainsturbator has covered South American torture camps, the fractal Universe, and the UFO phenomenon," "Brainsturbator is an antidote to paranoia. This is a broadcasting platform for better futures, informed optimism, and hands-on engagement with nature and technology. We encourage community-level empowerment and corporate-level collapse, and we suspect the world will be a better place because of both. We promote wild abundance and undermine centralized control. " Includes archives and a forum.

Shakespeare's Sonnet 23

by tadeufilippini (via)
SONNET 23 As an unperfect actor on the stage Who with his fear is put besides his part, Or some fierce thing replete with too much rage, Whose strength's abundance weakens his own heart. So I, for fear of trust, forget to say The perfect ceremony of love's rite, And in mine own love's strength seem to decay, O'ercharged with burden of mine own love's might. O, let my books be then the eloquence And dumb presagers of my speaking breast, Who plead for love and look for recompense More than that tongue that more hath more express'd. O, learn to read what silent love hath writ: To hear with eyes belongs to love's fine wit.

An Atlas of Radical Cartography

by karlcow

This Atlas is an atlas and not the atlas. Rather, it is one of many possible atlases, given the abundance of artists, architects, and others using maps and mapping in their work. While all maps have an inherent politics that often lies hidden beneath an “objective” surface, the contributions to An Atlas of Radical Cartography wear their politics on their sleeve. This publication includes ten pairs of politically engaged maps and texts from within the growing movement of cultural producers who have parallel or integrated activist practices.

Style By Charles Bukowski Style is the answer to everything. A Fresh way to approach a dull or dangerous thing. To do a dull thing with style is preferable to doing a dangerous thing without it. To do a dangerous thing with style, is what I call art. Bullfighting can be an art. Boxing can be an art. Loving can be an art. Opening a can of sardines can be an art. Not many have style. Not many can keep style. I have seen dogs with more style than men. Although not many dogs have style. Cats have it with abundance. When Hemingway put his brains to the wall with a shotgun, that was style. For sometimes people give you style. Joan of Arc had style. John the Baptist. Christ. Socrates. Caesar. García Lorca. I have met men in jail with style. I have met more men in jail with style than men out of jail. Style is a difference, a way of doing, a way of being done. Six herons standing quietly in a pool of water, or you, walking out of the bathroom naked without seeing me. Style by Charles Bukowski, read by himself.

Dorn, Evan D (2005-02-11) Universal biosignatures for the detection of life. http://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechETD:etd-05272005-071800

by solveig_vidal (via)
Universal biosignatures for the detection of life. My goal is to identify processes of life that leave measurable effects on an organism's environment, but which are not tied to any particular biochemistry, in order to build a conceptual framework for the search for extraterrestrial life. To this end, I test a pair of phenomena that appear in both terrestrial (biochemical) life and in digital life. Because these two life forms are different and unrelated, any phenomenon measurable in both is suggested to be universal. The Monomer Abundance Distribution Biosignature (MADB) is any measurement of the relative concentrations of related chemical compounds that cannot be explained by abiotic processes. I observe that living systems synthesize specific chemical compounds at rates that maximize their fitness. As a result, life-bearing environmental samples exhibit compounds in abundance ratios that are clearly not the result of abiotic synthesis because those ratios belie the formation kinetics and thermodynamics that would constrain abiotic synthesis. Often, biotic samples contain high concentrations of specific large, complex molecules that are never seen in abiotic synthesis and cannot be explained unless highly specific catalysts (i.e., enzymes) are present, and energy is expended to drive thermodynamically unfavorable reactions. I catalog this effect as it appears in terrestrial biochemical systems, including amino acids and carboxylic acids, and demonstrate the universality of selection's action on the monomeric composition of life forms by studying analogous examples in digital life. I suggest how this phenomenon provides a route to the detection of even unusual or unforeseen biochemistries, and give examples of detection methods using pattern-recognition techniques that may allow us to empower an autonomous system with the general ability to detect life forms. The Layered Trophic Residue Biosignature (LTRB) is any observation of stratification in solute chemistry that indicates metabolic activity by a sequence of diverse communities. When multiple chemical resources are available, natural selection drives adaptive radiation and the formation of specialist phenotypes. Competition ensures that specialists consume resources in decreasing order of energetic potential when resources diffuse through a medium near a boundary. The result is strata of chemicals appearing in order of redox potential, which is best explained by the presence of life.
