Organisation sociale des alternatives « 1+1=salade ? Voici les formes d’organisation sociale de différents types d’alternatives qui nous sont proposées, que j’appellerai "associations (supra)nationales structurées", "actions individuelles", "organisations collectives réactives" et "organisations collectives inclusives". Associations (supra)nationales structurées Les associations (supra)nationales structurées s’inscrivent dans un cadre d’organisation plus général que je nommerai "top-bottom", c’est à dire qui commence d’en haut pour se propager vers la base. L’emblème de ce type d’organisation est chez nous la démocratie représentative, où dans les faits les décisions viennent des élites (via la législation, les réglementations, la fiscalité, …) pour se répercuter sur le peuple. Dans les faits, une telle association (Greenpeace par exemple), lance des campagnes vers le grand public. Associations (supra)nationales structurées (type Greenpeace) Actions individuelles Actions individuelles (type simplicité volontaire) Like this: J'aime chargement…

Cognitive Computing Project Aims to Reverse-Engineer the Mind | Gadget Lab Imagine a computer that can process text, video and audio in an instant, solve problems on the fly, and do it all while consuming just 10 watts of power. It would be the ultimate computing machine if it were built with silicon instead of human nerve cells. Compare that to current computers, which require extensive, custom programming for each application, consume hundreds of watts in power, and are still not fast enough. So it’s no surprise that some computer scientists want to go back to the drawing board and try building computers that more closely emulate nature. "The plan is to engineer the mind by reverse-engineering the brain," says Dharmendra Modha, manager of the cognitive computing project at IBM Almaden Research Center. The 39-year old Modha, a Mumbai, India-born computer science engineer, has helped assemble a coalition of the country’s best researchers in a collaborative project that includes five universities, including Stanford, Cornell and Columbia, in addition to IBM.

Travel firms respond to events, share news via Twitter By Rebecca Heslin, USA TODAY Janis Krums of Sarasota, Fla., boarded a ferry on the Hudson River on Jan. 15 expecting a ride, not a rescue. When US Airways Flight 1549 crash landed in the river off Midtown Manhattan, the ferry Krums was riding rushed to help. On the way, Krums took a photo on his iPhone and shared the photo on Twitter. "There's a plane in the Hudson. Krums' instant fame came less than a month after passenger Mike Wilson used Twitter — a free micro-blogging service that allows users to send and read short text updates — to tell of his adventure aboard Continental Flight 1404, which skidded off the runway in Denver on Dec. 20 and burst into flames. Wilson (or '2drinksbehind' on Twitter) became a national news phenomenon after telling — via "tweets" in Twitter parlance — of his escape, then of his annoyance at being refused a cocktail after the ordeal. Problems no longer 'quiet' "Customer problems can no longer be kept 'quiet' with the emergence of the Web," Davis says.

L'intelligence collective On trouvera ici une versionPowerpoint™ de cet exposé. L’Internet n’est pas une technologie comme les autres, il a une valeur et un potentiel anthropologiques. C’est sur ce principe que Pierre Lévy, sociologue réputé, fonde le concept d’intelligence collective dans son ouvrage L’Intelligence collective : pour une anthropologie du cyberspace paru initialement en 1994. La juxtaposition des deux termes n’est pas choisie au hasard : ici, " intelligence " doit être compris comme dans le sens de " travailler en bonne intelligence " par exemple. Le concept à valeur politique au sens large, celui se référant à toutes les activités humaines en société organisée. I ? De par sa formation, Pierre Lévy a les compétences requises pour comprendre et analyser les problématiques liées à l’impact des nouvelles technologies sur les systèmes de signes et l’évolution culturelle en général. Les réseaux numériques ne sont que le premier stade du cyberespace. " Qu’est-ce que l’intelligence collective ? II ?

No more taking pictures of people in public in Europe anymore Here we go folks down that slippery slope of stupidity once more. It appears that the European Court of Human Rights has now ruled that the taking of a pictures without the explicit consent of the person being photographed is a violation of that person’s right of privacy – even if it is taken in a public and even if it is never used. This decision was the result of a court case involving a newborn baby who was put into a sterile unit when born. At that point as a part of a commercial service provided by the hospital they took a photograph of the baby. The child’s parents in turn objected and demanded that the hospital hand over the negatives. the hospital refused and when the Greek courts refused to hear the case it went before the European Court of Human rights. “The Court reiterated that the concept of private life was a broad one which encompassed the right to identity,” said an ECHR press release about the ruling.
