[iDC] RE: communication and art

[dtj2]

>Wopila-thanks Paul for your gracious words and introduction. I can't remember 
if I already sent the message to you but I am soliciting chapter ideas for a 
book entitled "The Authentic Dissertation: Alterative ways of knowing, 
research and representation" with Routledge of London. If anyone knows of a 
dissertation beyond the performance one in an MFA, but one that informed the 
actual dissertation, please let me know as this would fit into the book 
nicely....

>>Dear All:
>>
>>Congratulations on this terrific forum. The following are ruminations
>>on my own experiences, but I put them forward in case they may be of
>>interest.
>>
>>I am an artist who is also a Professor of Communication design at New
>>York City College of Technology in Brooklyn New York, as well as an
>>Adjunct Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the Cooper Union for
>>the Advancement of Science and Art and a member of the Faculty of the
>>Interactive Technology and Pedagogy Certificate Program at CUNY's
>>Graduate Center. This litany of credentials was achieved almost as an
>>aside to a struggle to create conditions to allow the development of
>>meaningful and effective curriculum for the advancement of creative
>>work in any discipline in these institutions. By creative work I mean
>>any endeavor in any discipline engaging conceptual development
>>embedded in new technologies. My driving point here, simultaneously
>>considered "visionary" and "totally insane" by some of my peers (and
>>that's not helpful either way), is the importance of putting forward
>>"invention" in the classroom as the overall umbrella for developing
>>curriculum.
>>
>>To sum up prior to the short digressions below, at any one or more of
>>these institutions, I am involved in these endeavors: listed in the
>>order of my favorite things to do from 1 to 4.
>>
>>1.  The creation of labs and production facilities for innovative
>>research and practice out of which newly appropriate curriculum can
>>develop.
>>2.  Individual interdisciplinary courses.
>>3.  Developing protocols in an institution for considering curriculum
>>development solutions as a process, not a "package"
>>4. Full programs housed in an upper or new division, which are linked
>>to individual departmental courses plus new courses.

>>How to understand invention, creativity and innovation?
>>
>>
>>The stratified theory that I have developed, based on my understanding of
>>other scholar's work, is not consistent with Newtonian paradigm assertions
>>about causality, nor with extreme reductionism in science or fundamentalism
>>in social/religious/economic theory.  So my work may appear inaccessible to
>>those who have allowed the current media/social/economic system to program
>>their minds.   (I know of no way to say this politely, but I wish that each
>>person see that I intend no offense.)
>>
>>But to others, there is a way of thinking that makes my work readable and
>>anticipatory of "what is next".
>>
>>http://www.ontologystream.com/indexold.html
>>
>>I have made the following chapter in my on line book
>>
>>http://www.bcngroup.org/area3/pprueitt/kmbook/Chapter2.htm
>>
>>the most accessable to the core formal concepts of stratification theory.
>>
>>Chapter 4 is the best introduction to the neuroscience
>>
>>http://www.bcngroup.org/area3/pprueitt/kmbook/Chapter4.htm
>>
>>and
>>
>>http://www.bcngroup.org/area3/pprueitt/kmbook/Chapter1.htm
>>
>>Additional technical detail is in the third section of chapter 5
>>
>>http://www.ontologystream.com/area2/KSF/Sections/associativeMemory.htm
>>
>>This work may seem to the reader as being entirely un-necessary in its
>>difficulty, and I very very sincerely apologize for this difficulties.
>>
>>I spend almost every waking moment nowadays trying to figure out a way to
>>talk about
>>
>>
>>    "orchestrated emergence"
>>
>>
>>in the stratified theory without burdening the discussion with such
>>difficult concepts, science and formalism.
>>
>>The possibility that my present discussions have is to by-pass the need to
>>have anyone but a few take the time to be aware of the extensive
>backgrounds
>>needed to see what I see.  This means, that the theory must lead to a build
>>able system where the measurement of the structure of the expression of
>time
>>is observable (in social discourse or in the creative expression of
>>impromptu music.)
>>
>>This possibility is that world wide jazz, blues, and other real time
>>performances be streamed into the safeNet as a virtual presentation of the
>>"moment".  The theory suggests that when this real time expression in
>>virtual space starts to occur, that the nature of the present moment will
>be
>>recognized by performing artists, around the world; and that audiences will
>>see the difference between recorded music and real time deep artistic
>>expression.
>>
>>The business model to support the artists, and the necessary production
>>studios, needs only a fraction of the wealth generated by the recording
>>studios.
>>
>>This business model is being discussed.
