Mark Pesce feed munger

Filed under: Blogging, People, share — dnw @ 9:27 pm

After chasing all the places Mark Pesce chooses to write his missives, a tweet sent by @stilgherrian this morning asking Mark if he had a feed which gathers his writings from all the places it’s thrown spurred me on to creating one.

So this evening I threw together a yahoo pipe of Mark’s feeds.

Get it how you like it here or if you want, the rss here.

Hyperlocal signals

Filed under: Everday — dnw @ 1:28 pm

Signal
Just documenting a very provisional thought.
I’ve been wondering a lot lately about any connection (or overlap) between Linda Stone’s idea of a cultural swing back to the individual as centre of gravity, Mark Pesce’s ‘Hyper <everything> People” and Stowe Boyd’s recent beginning of /Ground.

Something like “Hyperlocalism” perhaps that goes deeper, is individual, and beyond, just news?

Just thoughts.

Social ‘co-presence’

Filed under: Presence, Second Life — dnw @ 12:18 am

Why visualize RL data in SL?

“…a 3-D virtual environment allows us to
more naturally experience and visualize this
information in real-time with others and also
appreciate their presence around us.
Virtual worlds are such an appealing concept to users
primarily because of the social ‘co-presence’ of
others in these worlds in a very realistic manner.”
