Borderlands Sciences Research Foundation
carrerinyes
by carrerinyes  7-6-2008   
  Alternative Science has been known under many titles for thousands of years. It has always been an alternative science because it requires the investigator to go outside of their normal perceptions. Shamans and healers of all ages share a common heritage with the Alternative Scientist. A world of patterns, geometry and subtle radiation are operative to both. Alternative science struggles with language to describe the experience of subtle energy. Teaching how to manipulate this subtle energy has always been a challenge. Borderland Sciences preserves this collection so you can aquire your own education.MORE! 20th Century Collection These research texts provide a look into the early resarch of subtle energy by qualified scienctist before teh materialistic paradigm squeezed vitalism out of the picture.many of these texts hold secrets and models of the physical universe that were classified when they were completely worked out by academic engineers.

'Mind's eye' influences visual perception
Silkweaver
by Silkweaver  7-1-2008   
 The new findings offer an objective tool to assess the often-slippery concept of imagination. This is an interesting and fascinating experiment. It is perhaps a far shot but this may point towards the roots of human's ability and inclination to envision a future reality and than change the world around to fit this reality.

State Dept. Helps Oil Companies Get Iraq Contracts
blueridge
by blueridge  7-1-2008   
 spoils of war. When it says State dept, think Condi Rice, who was an executive for Chevron. An administration uniquely stacked at the top with former oil executives (Bush had his own company with a bin Laden) was surely to get this done. We will see if this makes any difference in oil prices in the US, but of course this could never justify the war which is responsible also for the same high oil prices.

 Despite all the media reports that your Facebook profile is giving the wrong impression, a psychological study shows people really can understand your personality from your online profile. Turns out you’re not giving the wrong impression with your profile; you’re giving the right impression to the wrong people.

Hippocratic Oath for Scientists?
iskandar
by iskandar  6-25-2008    1
 "Scientific misconduct is very expensive, leading to years of wasted research dollars and effort in pursuit of a scientific mirage, and it damages the public's perception of the value of science to society. Not only that, but the personal and professional costs to those closest to it are tremendous; whistle-blowers often lose everything and, if their scientific career somehow survives, it will always bear the scars, as revealed by Allegra Goodman in her excellent book, Intuition. In response to what appears to be a growing problem, a group of people at the Institute of Medical Science at University of Toronto in Canada wrote a scientist's version of the Hippocratic oath. This oath (above) was recited by all graduate students in the biological sciences at the beginning of the 2007-2008 academic year."

The Future of Gaming
Silkweaver
by Silkweaver  6-23-2008    1
 I have tried to capture some hints about the future of gaming. As the author remarks: "For now, the only way to predict the future of gaming is to predict that all predictions will be wrong." Yet, it seems that in the not so far future, games are going to deeply affect the way we perceive our world. Especially the younger generations will be affected, and to some extent it is already happening. It seems that eventually games will not only affect our perception of the world, they WILL become a substantial part of our world.

The Duplicates Paradox
wildcat
by wildcat  6-23-2008    11
  Personal identity is perceived as continuous through time. Yet this perception cannot be instantaneous, and must be based on memory. Given the fact that memories can be forgotten, altered or even fabricated, the question arises as to whether memories are essential for personal identity. Certainly no specific memory seems necessary for identity, but a perception of a continuity of the memory process is often believed to be. Subjective experience involves not just memory, but thoughts, desires, feelings and personality. Even when subjectivity is focused on the "outside world", this focus necessarily has a point of view. Any attempt to describe personal identity impersonally will lose an essential element. A self has both sensation and will.

Drug-Related Violence Hurts Tourism in Mexico

 This story focuses on what's happening in Tijuana as a result of increased drug and gang violence. I have not been to Mexico for nearly two years, but even then I noticed stories about the violence in the papers. Have you thought twice about traveling to Mexico as a result of increased violence or at least the perception of it?

Libertarian Paternalism
willhelm
by willhelm  6-14-2008   
 This is a new one on me. From article: "That is not an oxymoron, they insist in their book. Rather it is a corrective to the longstanding assumption of policy makers that the average person is capable of thinking like Albert Einstein, storing as much memory as IBM's Big Blue, and exercising the willpower of Mahatma Gandhi. That is simply not how people are, they say. In reality human beings are lazy, busy, impulsive, inert, and irrational creatures highly susceptible to predictable biases and errors. That's why they can be nudged in socially desirable directions." "A nudge is thus any noncoercive alteration in the context in which people make decisions. The libertarian paternalism behind it is rooted in Thaler's lifelong fascination with the power of small, seemingly innocuous details — the arrangement of food in a cafeteria, the drawing of a small fly in the bowl of a urinal, a pattern of lines on the road — to influence people's behavior.

3-D Viewing without Goofy Glasses
Silkweaver
by Silkweaver  6-14-2008    1
 As with earlier techniques, the illusion requires specially-created content to start with. In this case, a digital movie file effectively has two frames for each ordinary movie frame. The first is an ordinary color image, identical to what would be seen on a two-dimensional screen. A second frame, rather than showing a second offset view, encodes information about how viewers should perceive depth in the first frame. It appears as a grayscale version of the first, with white indicating foreground objects, black denoting deep background, and shades of gray indicating points in between.

Velvet D'Amour wants to diversify notions of modern beauty
Lexica
by Lexica  6-3-2008   
 On top of how fantastic she is in and of herself, I love that she stands up for skinny models too. As one of the commenters on the Jezebel thread put it, "I think defending thin models is absolutely part of body acceptance; for me, the ultimate point of "fat activism" and ideas around body image is the recognition that one's worth as a human is not reflected or to be assessed by their physical form. That means no body is useless, ugly, or devalued, not fat, not thin, ever."

Intelligent computers read your emotions
Silkweaver
by Silkweaver  5-30-2008   
 The researchers’ system extracted a large number of vocal characteristics, such as “prosodic features,” which include the rhythm, intensity, rate, and frequency of speech. Facial features were extracted holistically. Then, the researchers trained the system on several short video samples of individuals showing different emotions, from which it connected certain features with emotions.
