Scott MacLeod's Research

~ I'm currently envisioning and developing World University and School, - see, too, for example, http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Subjects - a global, wiki, virtual, free, open university & school (with Creative Commons' licensed so C.C., free, Bachelor, Ph.D., Law & M.D. degrees planned, as well as an all instrument in all languages' Music School), and much more, potentially in all 3,000-8,000 languages and 200-ish countries. As a wiki (editable, web pages) meta-directory, WUaS also focuses on online, open course ware at great universities (e.g. Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, other 'Ivy League' Schools, Oxford, T.U.M., Sorbonne, L.M.U., Juilliard, MIT, Cambridge, Cal Tech, etc.). WUaS is like CC Wikipedia with best STEM-centric (e.g. CC MIT OpenCourseWare in 7 languages and CC Yale OYC). Teach with your webcam, or interactively in a Google + Hangout group video chat, or in a virtual world like ScienceSim, Open Simulator or Second Life, learn, or 'edit this page,' and create, at World University & School. Here's World University & School's blog: http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com.

Planned for all 3,000-8,000 languages (Wikipedia is in 358 languages, by way of comparison, again), and with an universal translator (building on Google Translate and Sugar Labs' Translation System +), World University & School is for the emerging world (e.g. One Laptop per Child countries), and everyone, - again, with free Bachelor, Ph.D., Law and M.D. degrees planned, and as wiki.

~ He's writeen an ethnography of Harbin Hot Springs, with a virtual world aspect, with 3 1/2 draft chapters here  http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com - click on 'Harbin Book Section,' or other Harbin labels.

~ My research focuses on ethnography, the virtual, and information technologies, that is on 'socioculture' vis-à-vis the web, with a particular focus on counterculture (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com - I blog daily), as well as on UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The detailed, explanatory potential of anthropology and sociology in relation to the study of the social life of information technology, and to ethnography vis-à-vis the internet, as well as to

studies, provides a fascinating intersection of approaches / disciplines / methodologies, and is my starting place. I'm interested, in addition, in questions of anthropology vis-à-vis science. And I'm interested in anthropological, linguistic and philosophical questions about discourse, modernities, representation and language.

~ I've taught "Society and Information Technology" - http://socinfotech.pbworks.com - on Berkman (Island) in Second Life (not on Harvard University's faculty) - http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Berkman/165/212/25 - (using SL requires at least one gigabyte of RAM), for about 7 semesters. In the autumn of 2008, I taught "Society and Information Technology" on Penn State Isle II in Second Life, as a Penn State University instructor. I've also taught this course on-the-ground at Chatham University as well as Penn State university. I teach courses in anthropology and sociology, both in real life and in 3-D virtual worlds like Open Simulator and Second Life, which are 'placeless,' yet facilitate avatar-mediated conversation.

~ At the University of Edinburgh (D.R.), where I studied from 2003 - 2004, I conducted a virtual ethnographic study of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, St. Kilda, the island archipelago 40 miles west of the outer Hebrides on the west coast of Scotland, which was inhabited for more than 2,000 years until 1930. In the 2000-2003 school years, I studied, at the graduate level, at the University of California, Berkeley, and the University of California, Santa Barbara (M.A.), and I did graduate studies, again, at U.C. Berkeley in 2008-2009.

~ I also explore questions of how we can elicit the neurophysiology of loving bliss, naturally.

~ In addition, I'm interested in the concept of low-carbon, energy autonomy, and here is a page for this: http://scottmacleod.com/EnergyAutonomy.htm.

~ In the autumns of 1999 & 2005, I traveled on Semester at Sea, and here are some impressions from those voyages: Semester at Sea.

~ I enjoy writing poetry, and here are some haiku-ish. Click on the 'poetry' label on my blog {http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/poetry} to read or share more poetry.
