This document discusses how technology is changing the business of culture through "configurable culture" and Web 2.0. It notes that in 2006, audiences were consuming media in new ways like remixing music and films. Popular examples included Beck inviting fans to remix his album and the success of the remixed song "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley. The document also discusses how films like Snakes on a Plane leveraged fan feedback. While remixing and customization were becoming more popular, most people were still just consuming rather than producing these creations. The document advocates that successful Web 2.0 businesses must provide equal benefits to both consumers and programmers to drive participation and growth.

We spend a lot of time online. Even more time listening to music. We use many platforms, and as a DJs, Producers, Composers, Creators and Marketers, we use many additional programs and applications as well.
This deck is simply an application of our experience with user flows, interfaces and revenue models from user, client, consumer, marketer, designer, developer and service provider perspectives. Hypothetical of course, but intended to provide a case for UX/UI optimization from the start as a way to create new, organic revenue streams.
Specifically, we use Mixcloud.com, on e of the newer entrants to the U.S. Market as a way to illustrate the concept.
The current revolution in the music industry represents great opportunities and challenges for music recommendation systems. Recommendation systems are now central to music streaming platforms, which are rapidly increasing in listenership and becoming the top source of revenue for the music industry. It is increasingly more common for a music listener to simply access music than to purchase and own it in a personal collection. In this scenario, recommendation calls no longer for a one-shot recommendation for the purpose of a track or album purchase, but for a recommendation of a listening experience, comprising a very wide range of challenges, such as sequential recommendation, or conversational and contextual recommendations. Recommendation technologies now impact all actors in the rich and complex music industry ecosystem (listeners, labels, music makers and producers, concert halls, advertisers, etc.).

Magnetic - Query Categorization at ScaleAlex Dorman
presented 09/23/14 at NYC Search, Discovery & Analytics meetup
Classification of short text into a predefined hierarchy of categories is a challenge. The need to categorize short texts arises in multiple domains: keywords and queries in online advertising, improvement of search engine results, analysis of tweets or messages in social networks, etc. We leverage community-moderated, freely-available data sets (Wikipedia, DBPedia, Freebase) and open-source tools (Hadoop, Solr) to build a flexible and extensible classification model.
Magnetic is an online advertising company specializing in search retargeting and applying data science to online search behavior. We create custom real-time audience segments based on what users have searched for across the web. Targeting individual keywords found in user search history is a great way to build an audience. But the need to create manually selected keywords might present operational challenge. The ability to classify queries and keywords helps to create larger audiences with less effort and better accuracy. Among the other use cases for keyword classification in online advertising are reporting on size of inventory available by category, and campaign performance optimization.
We will share our experiences building a real-world data science system that scales to production data volumes of more than 20 million keyword classifications per hour. And will touch on some aspect of knowledge discovery such as language detection, n-gram extraction, and entity recognition.

Fair Use and Academic Freedom: Copyright Attitudes and Practices Among Commun...Aram Sinnreich
Presented at the Internet Research 16 conference in Phoenix, AZ, Oct 24, 2015.
Based on:
Sinnreich, A. & Aufderheide, P. (2015). Communication scholars and fair use: The case for discipline-wide education and institutional reform. International Journal of Communication, 9; 818-828.
Abstract:
A survey of 350 communication scholars internationally shows that, although scholars are increasingly aware of fair use and (when aware of it) benefit from the Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Communication Scholarship, they continue to suffer from confusion and ignorance about how to apply this feature of copyright law that is crucial to their work. Most are not aware of the code, although those who use it report success. The survey results point to the need for discipline-wide education and application of the code’s affordances for institutional reform.
Resisting Sovereign Surveillance: an activist agenda from the IncarceratedAram Sinnreich
Presentation made by Jessa Lingel and Aram Sinnreich at the Internet Research 15 Conference in Daegu, Korea, 10/23/14.
Full draft of the article is available at http://j.mp/incodification.
Presentation audio: https://soundcloud.com/original-sinn/incodification_ir15
Abstract:
This paper reviews penal history in order to consider forms of resistance to mass surveillance. Because experiences of surveillance are endemic to incarcerated life, identifying tactics of resistance among these populations provides valuable insights for potential forms of counter-conduct in other circumstances of ubiquitous monitoring. We focus on three forms of protest: hunger strikes, alternate communication networks and viral dance videos, which we frame through Foucault’s theory of askesis. We introduce the term incodification as a means of describing conditions of continuous surveillance ingrained into infrastructures of everyday life, even as these conditions give rise to tactics of resistance like those identified in this paper. Our objective in introducing this term, and with our analysis as a whole, is to provoke theoretical and activist projects that account for and subvert infrastructures of incodification.
Presentation audio: https://soundcloud.com/original-sinn/posthuman_rights_cornelltech
Abstract:
The rise of digital networks is contributing to profound shifts in the way we work, play, organize, and construct our identities. The "modern individual," a convenient fiction of the 19th and 20th centuries, is giving way to a more fluid understanding of the human condition, and inspiring some thinkers to postulate that we're entering a "posthuman" age. Yet our legal, economic, and institutional systems are still tied to the notion of "individual" rights and responsibilities. How can we update these systems to accommodate such changes, and what are the risks if we don't?
Sharing in Spirit: Kopimism and the Digital EucharistAram Sinnreich
Presented at International Communication Association annual Conference, May 22, 2014:
In April, 2012, in a ceremony officiated by an “ops” wearing a Guy Fawkes mask and wielding a talking laptop, the first Kopimist wedding was performed. It marked a significant milestone for this rapidly growing religion, founded in 2010 by a Swedish philosophy student named Isak Gerson and officially recognized by Sweden less than two years later. The religion is based on the principals that copying, disseminating and reconfiguring information are not only ethically right, but are in themselves “sacred” acts of devotion. Kopimist philosophy also holds that “the internet is holy” and that “code is law” (a phrase copied from legal scholar Lawrence Lessig).
Kopimism has already raised some interesting questions and debates in both legal and religious circles. Some have grumbled that the Kopimists are simply a bunch of “pirates” cleverly using religious protection to shield them from liability for copyright infringement. Others have suggested that the religion is little more than a sophomoric rhetorical exercise, the predictable product of a precocious young philosopher. In this article, I consider these viewpoints and suggest that, if we take Kopimist doctrine at its word, we can better understand it as the crystallization of an emerging value system centered around the proliferation of digital, networked information. Like copyright, and monastic Christianity before, it, Kopimism stakes out a socioepistemological vantage point, seeking to reconcile the regulatory demands of the 20th Century’s copyright regime with the cultural ramifications of today’s global digital information infrastructure.
Based on interviews with Kopimist officials and worshippers, as well as a critical reading of the religion’s “constitution” and other doctrinal texts, I delineate the complex ethical boundaries surrounding this new belief system, and examine it in contrast to previous religious and legal systems, evaluating its points of continuity and rupture to illuminate the unique challenges to ethics and morality in an era of information abundance and continuing material and educational inequity.

#Kopimism considered: Sophistry, sacrament or scam?Aram Sinnreich
Sweden recently became the first nation officially to recognize a new religion called Kopimism, based on the principal that copying, disseminating and reconfiguring information constitutes a "sacred" act. Some argue that Kopimists are a bunch of "pirates" using religion to shield them from copyright liability. Others see it as an absurd act of political theater. In this article, I suggest that it is the crystallization of an emerging cultural value system centered around digital networks. Like copyright, and monastic Christianity before it, Kopimism represents a socioepistemological solution to the irreconcilability of traditional cultural values and emerging informatic flows.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

23. What makes this bubble different?
• Core business principle #1: Every consumer
benefit (demand side) must be matched by an
equal benefit for the programmer (supply side)
• Core business principle #2: Web 2.0 is user-
driven. This has five elements:
• Network
• Identity
• Content
• Location
• Modularity
Source: Radar Research, Nov 2006
24. 10 Pillars of Web 2.0
Demand Side Benefit
(audience/consumer)
Supply Side Benefit
(business owner)
Network Network effects Virality
Identity Customizability Nichefication
Content Participation Volume
Location Portability Geo relevance
Modularity Extensibility Interoperability
Source: Radar Research, Nov 2006
25. Pillars 1 & 2: Network
• Network effects (demand side): Metcalfe: the
value of a network is proportional to the square
of the number of users. This means that a site or
service gets more interesting and useful as other
users engage with it.
• Virality (supply side): A site that benefits from
network effects must allow its users to recruit
others, thus lowering marketing and customer
acquisition costs
Source: Radar Research, Nov 2006
26. Pillars 3 & 4: Identity
• Customizability (demand side): Successful
Web 2.0 sites allow users to specify which
content and features they will access, and to
organize the way in which these content and
features are presented
• Nichification (supply side): Customization
tools yield rich data about users, spot emerging
tastes and trends, and lower production and
delivery costs by pre-formatting content to suit
the anticipated needs of specific customer
segments, or niches
Source: Radar Research, Nov 2006
27. Pillars 5 & 6: Content
• Participation (demand side): The degree to
which users may contribute to the experiences
of other visitors at a given site or service. Users
who have invested their own time and energy in
contributing to a site are both more loyal and
more valuable to publishers
• Volume (supply side): Participation tools
bring the cost of content production down
significantly, and provide publishers with the raw
materials for a more immersive, customizable
site than either editorial or syndicated content.
Source: Radar Research, Nov 2006
28. Pillars 7 & 8: Location
• Portability (demand side): As mobile devices
and wireless networks continue to proliferate,
consumers will increasingly see value in sites
and services that are formatted to leverage
multiple points of entry.
• Geo-relevance (supply side): Location-
specific advertising and services will be a major
engine of revenue growth and a key point of
differentiation between the successes and
failures of the Web 2.0 era.
Source: Radar Research, Nov 2006
29. Pillars 9 & 10: Modularity
• Extensibility (demand side): A successful
Web 2.0 site offers consumers the promise of
increased value over time through the use of
extensions, plug-ins, software mash-ups, and
other functionality-boosting additions.
• Interoperability (supply side): Publishing
APIs and helping third-party developers to add
functionality will be rewarded with genuine
customer loyalty and, ultimately, a more robust,
functional, and competitive product.
