Un sitio donde los cuentos de ciencia están contados y no contados al mismo tiempo. Música, social media y tendencias digitales para 2014. 2014 va a ser un año clave en el cambio del modelo de negocio musical en España, según coinciden los expertos. Numerosas tendencias más consolidadas en EEUU, el Reino Unido o Japón han hecho ya su aparición y, a medida que se superan los recelos que la tecnología suscita tradicionalmente en nuestro país y que las generaciones digitales nativas toman el mando, el ecosistema va a cambiar notablemente.

Para quienes no quieren ser barridos por el tsunami digital, no hay tiempo que perder. ¿Qué tendencias digitales y tecnológicas van a liderar en 2014 el cambio de las reglas de juego en la música? Examinémoslas, agrupadas en cuatro bloques: (1) Cómo se descubre y escucha música, (2) cómo se disfruta de la música en directo y (3) cómo se promociona la música y (4) experiencias de gamificación. Cómo se descubre y escucha música Streaming multiplataforma: La música está dejando paulatinamente de almacenarse en forma de archivo digital, no digamos ya en soportes físicos.

The magic and wonder of science

Nowadays, I think it's slightly different – my six-year-old, Louise, now gets involved in discussions about the big bang versus God (she's come down on the side of the big bang) and my 11-year-old, Eva, appears happy to accept that time is a relative rather than absolute value, which is fairly obvious given her patchy ability to make it to the school gates on schedule. My elder daughters both took science subjects at A-level. However, my children's interest is not reflected in the wider world. Last year, it was revealed that around half of all state schools did not have a single girl studying A-level physics. Ptak Science Books.

Par Jean-Paul Krivine - SPS n° 278, août 2007 À en croire les nombreux livres et sites Internet qui lui sont dédiés, le nombre d’or, à la fois canon de l’esthétisme et marque divine, serait présent à ce titre depuis la nuit des temps dans beaucoup de constructions humaines ou naturelles1.

Dans Tintin et le lac aux requins, le professeur Tournesol invente un engin révolutionnaire : le photocopieur en trois dimensions. Impact: Earth! Ulam’s Prime Number Spiral. There is an infinite number of prime numbers, and yet the prime numbers themselves do not display any apparent pattern, nor does any formula exist that generates prime numbers.

Ulam’s Prime Number Spiral

In fact, Legendre proved that there cannot be an algebraic function which always gives primes. However, prime numbers do exhibit a curious phenomenon when arranged in a spiral along with other consecutive integers, as in the figure to the right (in the figure, prime numbers are highlighted in white, twin primes are green, and Mersenne primes are red).

Tim O’Reilly’s Four Cylinder Innovation Engine O’Reilly Media, is famous for is producing “missing manuals” for new technologies, but thinking of O’Reilly as just a publisher of books would be like saying Facebook is just a website (this came up in the discussion at Media Round Table at Web 2.0 Expo, NY, 2010).

The Missing Manual for the Future

In recent weeks, I managed to catch Tim O’Reilly at several events, Maker Faire, Web 2.0 Expo, Hadoop World, and the free webcast Tim did with John Battelle on The Battle for the Internet Economy (although Tim spoke several other times during this period!). Citizen Science Alliance. Rewriting the Mind – We Are What We Think - Evolving Beings. The conscious mind is the part we are aware of – the part that does the thinking, worrying, planning and creating.

Rewriting the Mind – We Are What We Think - Evolving Beings

It is a tiny part of the structure; it is the subconscious that is the looming bulwark, a massive entity with incredible powers and potentials. Its unique characteristic is that it can create anything that we command it to create, by virtue of the thoughts we think. Collector's Guide - Maine Geological Survey.

¿Por qué hay algo en vez de nada?

Un hombre está sentado frente a una mesa. Encima de ella hay una caja con 100 dados. El hombre vuelca la caja y los 100 dados caen con la cara del seis boca arriba. ¿Cómo ha podido ocurrir eso? Vamos a suponer que el vídeo no está trucado. No hace falta ser matemático para intuir que la probabilidad de que alguien obtenga 100 seises simultáneos al tirar 100 dados es extraordinariamente baja. Build a little house in the woods.

Also called a sea cucumber or Holothuroid, this truly deserves the name sea pig. This was one of the most common and abundant animals caught off the coast of Antarctica by the international research team aboard the BAS Royal Research Ship James Clark Ross. Sea cucumbers are important in processing the sediment (like earthworms on land) but their numbers worldwide have been threatened by recent fisheries. "Few people realize just how rich in biodiversity the Southern Ocean is – even a single trawl can reveal a fascinating array of weird and wonderful creatures as would be seen on a coral reef.

These animals are potentially very good indicators of environmental change as many occur in the shallows, which are changing fast, but also in deeper water which will warm much less quickly," said research cruise leader Dr. David Barnes of British Antarctic Survey.
