Harold Adams Innis: The Bias of Communications & Monopolies of Power - 0 views

  • The Bias of Communication
  • he relative stability of cultures depends on the balance and proportion of their media.
  • a key to social change is found in the development of communication media.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • each medium embodies a bias in terms of the organization and control of information.
  • Time-biased media, such as stone and clay, are durable and heavy. Since they are difficult to move, they do not encourage territorial expansion; however, since they have a long life, they do encourage the extension of empire over time.
  • Space-biased media are light and portable; they can be transported over large distances. They are associated with secular and territorial societies; they facilitate the expansion of empire over space. Paper is such a medium; it is readily transported, but has a relatively short lifespan.
  • It was Innis’ conviction that stable societies were able to achieve a balance between time- and space-biased communications media.
  • He also believed that change came from the margins of society, since people on the margins invariably developed their own media. The new media allow those on the periphery to develop and consolidate power, and ultimately to challenge the authority of the centre.
  • Oral communication, speech, was considered by Innis to be time-biased because it requires the relative stability of community for face-to-face contact. Knowledge passed down orally depends on a lineage of transmission, often associated with ancestors, and ratified by human contact. In his writings, Innis is forthright in his own bias that the oral tradition is inherently more flexible and humanistic than the written tradition, which he found rigid and impersonal in contrast.

The Alexandrine Dilemma | the human network - 0 views

  • When the folks at Britannica conducted a forensic analysis of the failure, they learned something shocking: the site had crashed because, within its first hours, it had attracted nearly fifty million visitors.
  • Wikipedia was the modern birth of “crowdsourcing”, the idea that vast numbers of anonymous individuals can labor together (at a distance) on a common project.
  • There’s a new logic operating: the more something is shared, the more valuable it becomes.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • this new library – at least seven million volumes – has become available everywhere. The library has become coextensive with the Internet.
  • What does this mean for the library as we have known it? Has Google suddenly obsolesced the idea of a library as a building stuffed with books?
  • Google seems to have abandoned – or ignored – library science in its own book project.
  • In fact, because the library is universal, library science now needs to be a universal skill set, more broadly taught than at any time previous to this.
  • we are rapidly becoming a data-generating species.
  • In order to have a connection to our data selves of the past, we are all going to need to become library scientists.

electrical thermal imaging camera - 1 views

  •  
    Power industries require all-day monitoring, accurate intrusion detection, and regular preventive maintenance to ensure the reliable flow of power. The thermal camera is the right inspection tool for electricians to catch fuses that fail, plan repairs, and get things fixed before they become critical. The power sector is different from other industries in that maintenance cannot interrupt production, so prevention is a priority for substations. Why Do We Need Thermal Imaging Cameras for Power Industry The majority of accidents are caused by insulation aging and failure, which has the appearance of being much higher than the normal working temperature for several hours before breakdown. Infrared thermal imaging cameras can sense and detect faults such as overheating of set electric and telecommunications equipment. Non-contact infrared cameras can measure the surface temperature of an object from a safe distance, making them an indispensable tool for electrical equipment maintenance operations. Infrared cameras can effectively prevent equipment failures and unplanned power outages.
