Paul Virilio Paul Virilio (born 1932) is a French cultural theorist and urbanist. He is best known for his writings about technology as it has developed in relation to speed and power, with diverse references to architecture, the arts, the city and the military. Biography[edit] Since 1998, Virilio is only teaching intensive seminars at European Graduate School.[1] His latest projects involve working with homeless groups in Paris and building the first Museum of the Accident. Theoretical arguments[edit] The war model[edit] Virilio's predictions about 'logistics of perception' - the use of images and information in war - (in War and Cinema, 1984) were so accurate that during the Gulf War he was invited to discuss his ideas with French military officers. The integral accident[edit] Virilio believes that technology cannot exist without the potential for accidents. Dromology[edit] ‘Dromos’ is the Greek noun for road, but Virilio takes it to mean the activity of race (Virilio 1977:47). War of movement[edit]

Everyone's a critic now Late last year there was a confluence of critical opinion in America the likes of which the nation hadn't seen in years. Every single film critic in the traditional media – 350 "best" lists, the ads boast – seemed to anoint The Social Network, director David Fincher's semi-fictionalised account of the founding of Facebook, as the movie of the year, maybe even of the decade. Every single literary critic in the traditional media seemed to agree that Jonathan Franzen's Freedom, his saga of a dysfunctional American family, was the novel of the epoch. And just to make it three for three, just about every television critic in the traditional media seemed to genuflect before Martin Scorsese's Boardwalk Empire, an HBO series that depicts the depredations of a mob kingpin in Atlantic City during Prohibition. This is an extraordinary bounty of greatness in such a short time, though what is really extraordinary is the extent to which critics seemed almost to collude in issuing their superlatives.
Slett og rett Vesensforskjellen mellom endingen -ing og -ning på bokmål ... Språkrådets OSS-side (Ofte Stilte Spørsmål) gir mye nyttig informasjon om språket: Spørsmål:Fins det regler for bruken av -ing og -ning som avledningssuffiks på bokmål? Svar:Noen ganger kan ing-avledningen av et verb betegne selve handlingen, mens ning-avledningen betegner resultatet av handlingen eller har en konkret betydning: bygging (av hus)/bygning (det som er bygd), rydding (av tomta)/rydning (i skogen); skaping (av et kunstverk)/skapning (det som er skapt), fletting (av kurver)/fletning (selve flettverket i kurven), lysing (med lykt)/lysning (i skogen), trekking (av garn)/trekning (i Pengelotteriet, i ansiktet), strekking (av tøy)/strekning (veistrekning). Men i mange tilfeller kan verbalsubstantivet dannes med enten -ing eller -ning, uten at det spiller noen rolle for betydningen: rettskriv(n)ing, forsk(n)ing, bøy(n)ing. Suffikset -ing brukes mer enn -ning. Mange ord har hevd med suffikset -ning.
Michael Hardt Early life and education[edit] During college, he worked for various solar energy companies.[2] Hardt also participated, after college, in the Sanctuary Movement[2] and later helped establish a project to bring donated computers from the United States and put them together for the University of El Salvador. Yet, he says that this political activity did more for him than it did for the Salvadorans.[2] In 1983, he moved to Seattle to study comparative literature at the University of Washington.[2] While there, he received an M.A. in 1986 and his PhD in 1990.[5] From there he went to Paris where he would meet Negri. Hardt speaks fluent French, Spanish and Italian and is Professor of Literature and Italian at Duke University and a Professor of Philosophy and Politics at the European Graduate School in Saas-Fee.[3] Thought[edit] Hardt is concerned with the joy of political life, and has stated, "One has to expand the concept of love beyond the limits of the couple Publications[edit] Books Articles
La sociedad del aprendizaje / Cisco Hacia una sociedad del aprendizaje / John Chambers Presidente y CEO de Cisco Systems, Inc. Desde hace mucho tiempo, tengo la convicción de que la educación y la tecnología son los dos pilares de la igualdad en la vida. Esta nueva etapa de Internet —con la Web 2.0 y la colaboración— ofrece una visión de lo que se puede hacer. Esa convicción se intensifica en momentos en que la visión comienza a tomar forma al hacer posible la colaboración, eliminar las barreras en todo el mundo y permitir el acceso a la información en cualquier momento y lugar. La educación y la tecnología van de la mano y la red es la plataforma de lo que denominamos la sociedad del aprendizaje, concepto que desarrollamos en las siguientes páginas. El aprendizaje es esencial para el futuro del mundo. Es cierto que optimizar la eficacia de los sistemas educativos tradicionales para maximizar el valor que podemos obtener de ellos es un elemento crucial de cualquier estrategia para avanzar.

Slik kan du enkelt lage dine egne QR-koder QR-koder kan brukes til så mangt – salg, markedsføring, URL-kobling med mer. Inntil nylig rynket jeg på nesa når jeg hørte om QR-koder, for hva var egentlig vitsen tenkte nå jeg. Første gangen jeg så det (sent ute tenker jeg) så var det knyttet til Android Market og nedlastning av apps til Android sine Smarttelefoner. «Ok, og hva så» tenkte jeg…. Neste gang jeg kom over QR-koder igjen var det knyttet til en geo-tjeneste som het GeoToko, og som jeg behørlig dekket i en bloggpost om hvordan man kunne lage markedsaktiviteter som skilte seg ut. Definisjon på QR-Koder Som alltid når noe trengs å defineres så sjekker jeg ut Wikipedia – som kort forklart beskriver QR-koder som en todimensjonal strekkode. QR-koder ble utviklet i Japan på 90-tallet, men har ikke slått til – før nå de siste årene med veksten av Smarttelefoner med kameraer og GPS bla. Enkelt forklart så kan visualisering av en QR-kode initiere eller sette i gang en handling – som kan være så mangt:
Kwame Anthony Appiah Libros Gratis Is the age of the critic over? | Culture | The Observer Miranda Sawyer, broadcaster and Observer radio critic: 'Twitter has made it easier for critics to hear other people's opinions. Even then, though, you tend to hear similar views to your own' When I was writing for the Face, during the 1990s, I went to interview some boy racers: young lads who spent all their money souping up their cars in order to screech around mini roundabouts or rev their engines in supermarket car parks until their tyres smoked. The kids asked me who I was writing for. The point is that most people – especially those outside the high-culture capital of London – are involved in culture of their own choice, often of their own making. And mostly, those choices are ignored by the mainstream media. The reason why professional critics agree a lot is that they tend to be of a type. The big difference Facebook and, especially, Twitter has made is that it is easier for critics to hear other people's opinions. Criticism isn't about units sold, it's about the conversation.
Morfologi (lingvistikk) Innenfor språkvitenskapen er morfologien det samme som formlære. I morfologien studerer man hvordan ord er oppbygd av og blir dannet av mindre enheter – morfem . Det handler mest om ordbøyning ( fleksjon ) og orddanning ( avledning og sammensetning ). Eks. på bøyning: hest – hesten – hester – hestene; bygge – bygger – bygde – bygd . Med orddanning mener vi i hovedsak avledning og sammensetning. Den mest produktive sammensetningen i norsk er substantiv-substantiv. Sammensatte ord kan også ha sammensetningsformativ mellom de to leddene, for eksempel; fartsbot, nattevakt. her er det henholdsvis 's' og 'e' som er formativ.
EL ALEPH Desde su más temprana edad en India, Osho fue un espíritu rebelde e independiente, retando todas las tradiciones religiosas, sociales y políticas, e insistiendo en experimentar la verdad por sí mismo, en vez de acumular conocimientos y creencias dadas por otros. A la edad de veintiún años, el 21 de marzo de 1953, Osho alcanzó la iluminación. Hablando de sí mismo dice: "Ya no estoy buscando nada. La existencia me ha abierto todas sus puertas. Se graduó en filosofía con los más altos honores en la Universidad de Sagar. En el curso de su vida Osho ha hablado virtualmente sobre todo y cada aspecto del desarrollo de la consciencia humana. No pertenece a ninguna tradición: "Soy el comienzo de una consciencia totalmente nueva", ha dicho. Los discursos a sus discípulos y buscadores de todo el mundo han sido publicados en más de seiscientos cincuenta volúmenes, y traducidos a treinta idiomas. Osho dejó su cuerpo el 19 de enero de 1990. "Continuaré siendo una fuente de inspiración para mi gente.
What’s Wrong with the Culture of Critique Photo: Brock Davis You don’t have to read this essay to know whether you’ll like it. Just go online and assess how provocative it is by the number of comments at the bottom of the web version. (If you’re already reading the web version, done and done.) A funny thing has quietly accompanied our era’s eye-gouging proliferation of information, and by funny I mean not very funny. Technoculture critic and former Wired contributor Erik Davis is concerned about the proliferation of reviews, too. Of course, Yelpification of the universe is so thorough as to be invisible. Our ever more sophisticated arsenal of stars and thumbs will eventually serve to curtail serendipity, adventure, and idiotic floundering. There’s an essential freedom in being alone with one’s thoughts, oblivious to and unpolluted by anyone else’s. Life demands assessment.
