Message to Ralf and Kathryn and closing down my L600 associated with
the augury readings group.

Subject: L600 closing down


My L600 involving the Augury readings group should be coming to a
close tomorrow. I'm hoping we can call it complete, evaluate it. and
get it down in the books. I list (with minor summaries) some of my
posts to show my contribution and act as something of a coda.

We did not read all the desired books, hoist lots of documents to Arts
nor have an incredibly diverse collection of active participants in
the discussions (although we did have a very diverse and interesting
group); however, it has been one of the most intellectually
stimulating and educational events of my life. I hope it will continue
with some kind of augury II.

I posted 48 of the 150 messages in the archive. This either makes me a
windbag, a little overexcited or both. It certainly took a great deal
of time and energy. 

It's stunning to read the entire archive

  http://www.burningchrome.com/archives/augury/

from end to end in one sitting. Quite remarkable stuff going on in
there.

Please let me know if there is additional work I should do before we
call the for-credit aspect of this work done. I very much hope it will
continue outside the for-credit context.

Thanks.

-=-=- Some of my postings:


http://www.burningchrome.com/archives/augury/msg00002.html

  My first post of an additional reference that supported some of the
  ideas we were exploring. A paper from Elin Jacob.

http://www.burningchrome.com/archives/augury/msg00034.html

  "analogical and a bit about embodiment, interfaces and augmentation"
  in which I bring in a lot from second version of the PORT paper

     http://www.burningchrome.com/~cdent/uviz/portpaper2.html

  and the final paper I wrote for L542

     http://www.burningchrome.com/~cdent/slis/l542/useTools.htm

  and tie them both in to Bardini's analysis of Engelbart's
  motivations with Augmentation.

  (It turns out there are a lot of connections here with Clark as well,
  but the lack of active discussion and my recognition that I was
  sometimes the only voice in a crowd made me a bit reluctant to
  continue the conversation with myself.)

  My answer to the question "What do you want to accomplish with this
  readings group?"

  One answer is here:

    http://www.burningchrome.com/archives/augury/msg00036.html#nid06

  and the described goal was reached.

  Another is here:

  Heidegger as presented by Moran

  Comments on a chapter from a book by Paul Dourish

  that explains his interpretation of the philosophical underpinnings
  of embodied interaction. I attempt to tie in Engelbart.

  towards a rejection of a "real" reality.

  References to neat articles from Malcolm Gladwell that remind me of
  Clark and Engelbart.
