The document discusses the potential future use of microchipping humans and raises ethical concerns. It argues that implanting microchips could allow constant monitoring of people's movements and private data, infringing on their privacy and potentially leading to their information being hacked or misused. Major health issues could also arise from the radio waves emitted by the chips. The document draws parallels to the dystopian surveillance state depicted in the novel 1984, and asserts that the level of control microchipping could enable could result in tyranny if misused by authorities.

Brian Winston is a British media scholar who was the first Lincoln Professor at the University of Lincoln. He has worked as a journalist since 1963 and has written extensively on the development of media technologies and their social impact. Some of his most influential works examine how the potential of new communications technologies is often suppressed to maintain the status quo. According to Winston, new technologies only become widely adopted when they fulfill an existing social need, and their disruptive aspects are limited, following a pattern from prototypes to inventions to mass adoption.
Steven Greer - CE5-CSETI - 16. The CSETI Project - Project Overview, 59p
The document discusses the conclusions of CSETI's analysis of the UFO phenomenon and extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI). Some key points include:
- Some UFOs are extraterrestrial spacecraft piloted by beings from other planets and star systems. Multiple civilizations are involved.
- Sudden open contact has been avoided to prevent disruption, but a plan is in place for gradual, broader contact as humans become accustomed to the idea.
- ETI are concerned with humanity's transition to peace and a world government within the next 10-15 years.
- The US government has known about ETI since 1946 but maintained secrecy due to fears over technology, social disruption, and uncertainty about motives

Marshall Mc Luhan - The extensions of man
1. Marshall McLuhan was a Canadian philosopher who theorized that technology is an extension of human abilities and that it shapes human identity and cognition. He argued we see ourselves reflected in the tools and media we use.
2. McLuhan's ideas influenced theorists like Seymour Papert who argued computers can help children understand how their minds work by learning to program computers. However, some question if we can truly recognize ourselves in technology.
3. McLuhan saw electronic media like TV and the internet as "tribal drums" that create a new sense of collective identity over individualism, which poses a challenge to modern liberal values.

National & international communication by Amber Malik & Hina Nawab
The New World Information and Communication Order (NWICO) emerged in the 1970s as developing countries protested the dominance of Western news agencies in global information flows. NWICO aimed to foster more equitable communications between developed and developing worlds. Major issues included the unbalanced flow of media from developed to developing countries, unfair allocation of radio spectrum and geostationary orbits, and lack of input from developing countries in decisions around satellite technologies and communication standards. While NWICO discussions aimed to address global imbalances, the United States opposed it as a threat to free press.

The document discusses how science and technology have impacted various areas such as space exploration, communications, computing, and medicine. It describes how cooperation between countries like the US and Soviet Union led to joint space missions in the 1970s. Spacecraft explored planets in our solar system and telescopes like Hubble provided images of space. Satellites revolutionized global communications while computers became smaller and more powerful. The internet connected computer networks worldwide. Technology also transformed medicine through scans, genetic engineering and cloning. Agricultural advances like the Green Revolution increased food production but also had negative environmental impacts.
The Information Revolution
The information network created by Sir Tim Berners-Lee in 1990 to connect people to knowledge has become an important place to navigate who and what we know, as well as who we think we are. But how much of a revolution is it? This lecture will trace some of the most important developments in social uses of information technologies in order to ultimately argue that the Web does offer unprecedented opportunities to access information and galvanise communities of practice, but that the impact of this new medium will reflect an evolution rather than a revolution of communication practices.
Artificial thought
The document discusses a project called the NASA Blue Beam Project which involves using technology to manipulate humans on a global scale. It describes methods like using satellites to broadcast electromagnetic waves that can interact with people's thoughts and induce artificial thoughts. The goal is said to be total social control by using fear, mind control, and advanced technology to convince people that a new world order and global religion are necessary through faked supernatural events like alien invasions. It warns that these methods could cause hysteria and chaos on a global scale.

A Review Of Media Effect Theories And Their Extension To Digital Media
This document provides an overview of media effect theories from early theories of direct unidirectional effects to later more complex reciprocal theories. It discusses four phases of media effect theories: 1) Significant Effect Phase where media were seen as directly shaping opinions, 2) Minimal/Limited Effect Phase where media effects depended on individual predispositions, 3) Strong Effect Rediscovered Phase where long-term cultivation effects of television were studied, 4) Reciprocal Effect Phase where interactive digital media allow for two-way effects between media and audiences. The document aims to map how theories have evolved over time and discuss extending theories to digital media.

Title: Gravitational wave detection with orbital motion of Moon and artificial
Abstract:
In this talk I will describe some recent ideas to find gravitational waves from supermassive black holes or of primordial origin by studying their secular effect on the orbital motion of the Moon or satellites that are laser ranged.The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within

The cost of acquiring information by natural selection
This is a short talk that I gave at the Banff International Research Station workshop on Modeling and Theory in Population Biology. The idea is to try to understand how the burden of natural selection relates to the amount of information that selection puts into the genome.
It's based on the first part of this research paper:

Equivariant neural networks and representation theory
Or: Beyond linear.
Abstract: Equivariant neural networks are neural networks that incorporate symmetries. The nonlinear activation functions in these networks result in interesting nonlinear equivariant maps between simple representations, and motivate the key player of this talk: piecewise linear representation theory.

Applied Science: Thermodynamics, Laws & Methodology.pdf
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

Targeting Hsp90 and its pathogen Orthologs with Tethered Inhibitors as a Diagnostic and Therapeutic Strategy for cancer and infectious diseases with Dr. Timothy Haystead.Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.
The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.
