Abaixo trechos:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/hyperlocal.gif"/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Image by Minh Uong/The New York Times.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"(...)  hyperlocal news (n): information gathering about a geographically-specific community that is part or was once part of a broader coverage area or focus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here?s what I mean by that. The hyperlocal movement is encapsulating some pretty broad, disparate agendas, from (1) citizen journalists covering their neighborhoods or towns of just a few thousand people or even fewer through to (2) media entrepreneurs who are trying to create news-gathering organizations covering as many as a few hundred thousand people in a specific geographic place ? or, you know, data assembled by a computer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I think they have in common is the fracturing from or refocusing of an existing coverage area. Maybe a newspaper is struggling to report on a portion of its long-held coverage area with a smaller staff or one has entirely given up a now too-large readership base as too few of them are paying for that news. (...)".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aeroportos&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Já havia falado, no &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/andrelemos"&gt;Twitter&lt;/a&gt;, da experiência do escritor Alain de Botton que passou uma semana escrevendo um livro em Heatrow, Londres, contratado pelo aeroporto (BAA). Interessante ter um escritor residente em um aeroporto escrevendo sobre o que vê e sobre as diversas experiências desse "não lugar" (Augé).  Mas o que vemos nesse relato, é que os aeroportos têm também seus idiossincrasias, particularidades, vida própria. Eles seriam assim, "lugares". Vejam o post do &lt;a href="http://www.cityofsound.com/blog/2009/10/a-week-at-the-airport-by-alain-de-botton.html"&gt;City of Sound&lt;/a&gt; sobre a experiência. Não li o livro mas já está na minha lista. Deve ser bom de ler ouvindo o &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_for_Airports"&gt;"music for airports&lt;/a&gt;" do Brian Eno.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Abaixo alguns trechos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cityofsound.com/.a/6a00d83452a98069e20120a61a8384970b-pi"&gt;&lt;img src="http://andrelemos.info/com104/6a00d83452a98069e20120a61a8384970b.jpg"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"(...) Perhaps with this in mind, he addresses the issue of his patron, BAA, right away, and does so carefully, thoughtfully, and with humour. He's intensely aware of his delicate position here, and the power structures around him. He partly suggests that the new economic reality of the publishing industry has made him consider this alternative, and ancient, business model. I'm not sure that's relevant - it's a well-understood model, and we can judge the book on its merits, reading between lines as we see fit. I think once given the green light to say what he likes - and as mentioned above, BAA have chosen a writer that is hardly going to stick the boot in; at worst, a thin smile disguising a delicate stiletto nick - de Botton would clearly jump at the chance of this commission.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And who wouldn't?  Airports are fascinating places, and emblematic tokens of our civilisation. This last year has been a year of flying for me. I?ve probably done over 2000 km per week for the last year, on average (with an appropriately hideous carbon footprint as a result) and so I've overly familiar with certain of these spaces. But curiously, I still enjoy them, as places. They perform a compression of so many things the experience is both everyday (almost) and surreal simultaneously.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And de Botton picks apart that paradox from almost every angles one can imagine. In fact, his starting point is that the airport is essentially the emblematic human structure:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'In a world full of chaos and irregularity, the terminal seemed a worthy and intriguing refuge of elegance and logic. It was the imaginative centre of contemporary culture Had one been asked to take a Martian to visit a single place that neatly captures the gamut of themes running through our civilisation - then it would have to be to the departures and arrivals halls that one would head.' (...)"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Comentário: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aqui tentamos, com o jornalismo hiperlocal e com o "lugar" aeroporto, pensar na dimensão menor do espaço, uma visão do ínfimo e do mais próximo.

A discussão era sobre os dispositivos móveis tipo celulares e mp3. Bull já havia mostrado como, desde o walkman, esses dispositivos criam uma verdadeira trilha sonora para o mundo. Mais ainda é pouco explorado como esses dispositivos podem criar sentimentos de pertencimento a um lugar, vivências específicas no lugar em meio a mobilidade e a um suposto isolamento. Para além da força "isolante" dos mp3 players (que é supervalorizada e que deve ser pensada em termos de momentos  - ninguém se torna um ser anti-social por usar dispositivos portáties de música, mas posso me isolar agora e não depois, etc.), devemos pensar em suas capacidades sociais (trocas de informações, compartilhamento de fones de ouvido, dicas de sites para baixar música), mas também em sua dimensão locativa, como marca de um lugar, como indexador que produz sentido espacial, mesmo em mobilidade - um som me lembra um lugar, estar em um lugar me lembra determinada música, um som em um lugar desperta determinadas emoções, etc...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vejam como exemplo dessa dimensão locativa sonora essa "escada-piano" na Suécia para estimular as pessoas a se movimentarem. Segundo informações, o uso da escada aumentou em 66%.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Vou aproveitar o tema dos dois posts citados abaixo para discutir o nosso senso de localização e de navegação hoje com as tecnologias e serviços móveis de localização. Eles podem nos ajudar a compreender melhor as mídias locativas. O primeiro questiona se o nosso senso de direção estaria diminuindo com um uso excessivo dos GPS. O outro mostra como o GPS e o telefone celular podem ajudar a localização e a navegação de turistas. Vejamos primeiro os posts e depois um comentário (como sempre um "work in progress").

What a rhetoric question. Without the context this does not really make sense, or does it?
&lt;br /&gt;Usually as things are starting to be fun, some one comes over to tell you how bad this is and that you should not do it because of this or this or even this reason. At least it was like this when you were a teen, battling for independence with beloved ones.
&lt;br /&gt;However this is long gone and things have changed since. And still the same situation. But now we are wiser and think twice, maybe it is true, or at least partially, there might be something about this other opinion I have not thought of in this way.
&lt;br /&gt;Here we re with the news, finally, GPS is BAD!
&lt;br /&gt;Yes, you are right, your SatNav is doing harm to you as you drive. At least this is what the headlines of the news on &lt;a href="http://ideas.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/10/19/can-gps-help-your-brain-get-lost/" style="color: rgb(34, 98, 245); text-decoration: none; "&gt;the New York Times blog&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href="http://www.walrusmagazine.com/articles/2009.11-health-global-impositioning-systems/" style="color: rgb(34, 98, 245); text-decoration: none; "&gt;walrus magazine&lt;/a&gt; suggest Actually it is all based on an article by Alex Hutchinson.
&lt;br /&gt;We actually have an other &lt;a href="http://urbantick.blogspot.com/2009/09/getting-lost-with-gps.html" style="color: rgb(34, 98, 245); text-decoration: none; "&gt;SatNav article&lt;/a&gt; her on urbanTick, that addresses the problem of arriving at the desired location but in this case it was about spelling the destination name correctly.
&lt;br /&gt;In general Alex Hutchinson points out in hi article that navigating is a learning process that is a dual relationship between brain and action. The more we use it the better we are at it, but it needs to be maintained.
&lt;br /&gt;Scientists have identified an area in the brain, the hippocampus, to be responsible or this sort of navigation task. ?The brains of London cabbies have outsized rear hippocampuses, because they are required to painstakingly learn the byzantine lanes and byways of the Old World city. (&lt;a href="http://ideas.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/10/19/can-gps-help-your-brain-get-lost/" style="color: rgb(34, 98, 245); text-decoration: none; "&gt;NYblog&lt;/a&gt;)? Most of us will not attempt to learn the apparently 25?000 street names and thousands of landmarks required for becoming a cabby. However navigating and orientating do not necessarily require you to know all the names of the streets. Other elements are important in day-to-day navigation. Hutchinson refers to &lt;a href="http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/~vero/" style="color: rgb(34, 98, 245); text-decoration: none; "&gt;Veronique Bohbot&lt;/a&gt; a researcher at McConnell Brain Imaging Center: ?Bohbot demonstrated in a widely cited 2003 study that our mapping strategies fall into two basic categories. One is a spatial strategy that involves learning the relationships between various landmarks ? creating a cognitive map in your head. The other is a stimulus-response approach that encodes specific routes by memorizing a series of cues, as in: get off the bus when you see the glass skyscraper, then walk toward the big park. For their study, Bohbot created a virtual maze that tested both methods; they found that about half of us prefer spatial strategies, while the other half prefer stimulus-response? (walrus magazine). We probably use both of these techniques depending on the situation, but most likely we prefer one over the other. What navigation type are you?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

Slides are on &lt;a href="http://www.slideshare.net/nicolasnova/the-near-future-of-tourism-services-based-on-digital-traces-2312286" style="color: rgb(34, 98, 245); text-decoration: none; "&gt;Slideshare&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;The point of the talk was the following: we?re seeing the advent of location-based services and augmented reality applications. But those are only the ?interface? aspect of a broader phenomena: the aggregation and use of digital data to create new sorts of services. Indeed digital objects used by people such as mobile phones and cameras leave a large amount of traces: the phone can be geolocated through cell-phone antennas or GPS and digital cameras take pictures that people can upload on web sharing platforms such as Flickr. All of this enable new application that allow to count tourists or provide them with new sorts of services. Based on existing experiments, the presentation addressed how the tourism industry can benefit from these digital traces to obtain new representations of tourists activities and to build up new services based on them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Comentário.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;O tema em discussão aqui, como artefatos midiáticos afetam nossa memória e cognição é cara à filosofia da técnica, e particularmente à comunicação. Os posts me lembram a discussão sobre um dos mais importantes artefatos mnemônicos da história da humanidade, a escrita. No Fedro de Platão podemos despreender uma crítica e mesmo uma condenação desse artefato midiático (a escrita), já que ela seria potencialmente prejudicial à memória. A escrita é aqui para Platão um "phármakon", tendo a duplicidade de ser ao mesmo tempo remédio e veneno, a depender de sua "dosagem". Na realidade ela, a escrita, seria um mal para a memorização. A crítica em Platão é feita em relação a outros discursos, como a poesia e a sofística. No Fedro, Platão reproduz o diálogo contado por Sócrates (em mito egípcio) entre o deus Theutis, que oferece ao rei Tamus vários conhecimentos. No entanto, o rei recusa a escrita por compreender que esta seria prejudicial à memorização (como escrever o que devemos comprar em um supermercado prejudica a memorização dos ítens). 
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://ednasantos.spaceblog.com.br/r7971/Artigos-sobre-ESCRITA/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/1208906835.jpg"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Invenção da Escrita, deus Theutis
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;É um fato que as formas que chamei de &lt;a href="http://www.andrelemos.info/artigos/territorio.pdf"&gt;territorialização&lt;/a&gt; estão em expansão com as tecnologias móveis e os serviços de localização (mapeamento, indentificação de pontos de interesse, localização de pessoas conhecidas). O medo de se perder é hoje alimentado por essas tecnologias e serviços. O uso de GPS automotivo pode virar um "default", fazendo com que as pessoas não encontrem mais seus caminhos sem ele; os mapas em celulares indicando pontos de interesse podem fazer as pessoas evitarem a deambulação ao acaso e o encontro com o inusitado; a localização de amigos pode inibir o encontro fortuito; os serviços de localização para o turismo podem prejudicar o andar desinteressado e o encontro com algo fora do roteiro  (neste caso, cada vez menos vemos esse tipo de turista. Em regra geral todos buscam uma rentabilização dos gastos e do tempo, tentando aproveitar e "descontar' ao máximo os "prejuizos" com as viagem -  indo aos lugares que todos vão, fotografando ou filmando tudo, pro exemplo). 
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Mas há, por outro lado, projetos em que as mídias locativas são usadas justamente para proporcionar o encontro com o misterioso e o inusitado, que estimulam a "serendipity", para permitir contar histórias próprias sobre lugares e assim criar novos sentidos de localização e de navegação. Como a escrita, essas mídias são também um "phármakon", ao mesmo tempo veneno e remédio. Parece que se, por uma lado, as midias locativas vão prejudicar nosso senso de direção e de navegação insistindo em processos meramente "territorializantes", por outro, elas podem aguçar nossa experiência do lugar e ajudar a construir novas formas de significação dos lugares, linhas de fuga, perdição e "desterritorialização". Cabe então estar atentos para identifica quando o phármakon é um veneno ou um remédio, quando eles são só paliativo para o medo de se perder ou substrato para ajudar a pensar em novas formas de fazer sentido local. 
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Escrevia no &lt;a href="http://andrelemos.info/404nOtF0und/404_71.htm"&gt;Manifesto sobre as Mídias Locativas&lt;/a&gt;:
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;(...) 1. Crie situações para perder-se. O medo de perder-se é correlato ao medo de encontrar. Mas perdendo-se, encontra-se. A desorientação é uma forma de apropriação do espaço! Tudo localizar, mapear, indexar é uma morte simbólica: o medo do imponderável, do encontro com o acaso: evitar uma dimensão vital da existência. ?Perder-se é um achar-se perigoso?, como diz Clarice Lispector.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;2. Erros, falhas, esquecimentos de localizações e de movimentações são as únicas possibilidades de salvação da hiperracionalização atual do espaço. Só uma apropriação tática dos dispositivos, sensores e redes poderá produzir novos sentidos dos lugares. Desconfie de sua posição e de seu status de nômade. Quando sua operadora diz, ?você é nômade?, desconfie. Mas saiba que o nomadismo é um traço essencial da aventura humana na terra! (...)&lt;/div&gt;

Mobile Citizen Project&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O programa Mobile Citzen Project pode interessar a instituições brasileiras que queiram realizar projetos com mídias móveis para ajudar contra a pobreza. O Projeto visa financiar projetos de 30 a 100 mil dolares na América Latina. A informação vem do &lt;a href="http://mobileactive.org/launch-mobile-citizen-project"&gt;Mobile Active&lt;/a&gt;. Vejam pequena descrição abaixo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/mobilecitzenproject.gif" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The &lt;a href="http://www.mobilecitizen.bidinnovacion.org/"&gt;Mobile Citizen Project&lt;/a&gt;, which aims to fund and support mobile initiatives for social change in Latin America, launches today. The program is a project of the Science and Technology Division of the Inter-American Development Bank, with the support of the Italian Trust Fund for Information and Communication Technology for Development. MobileActive.org is a media partner, powering the Program's &lt;a href="http://www.mobilecitizen.bidinnovacion.org/en/ideas_box.html"&gt;"Ideas Box."&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the project's press release, the "Mobile Citizen Program aims to accelerate the development and implementation of mobile services to address acute social and economic problems. We will provide support to develop citizen-centric solutions that target low-income groups in urban and rural areas of Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) region."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The program will provide funding in the form of grants ranging from $30,000 to $100,000 USD. These grants will be used to develop and implement a maximum of 8 mobile service projects to tackle concrete and severe problems affecting low-income population in cities and rural areas of LAC."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. 7Scenes&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Plataforma web para desenvolvimento de jogos utilizando mídias locativas. O &lt;a href="http://7scenes.com/"&gt;7Scenes&lt;/a&gt; é dirigido por Ronald Lenz, coordenador dos projetos com locative media no Waag Society da Holanda. Vejam abaixo a descrição da plataforma.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/7scenes.gif"/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Consider the city an extension of your organisation, a fascinating place for you to publish and reach people in a different way. The city with all its (hidden) information is a beautiful stage filled with historic events, personal stories, cultural meaning, demographics, social relationships and much, much more. Something has occurred on every street corner and every brick can claim its own history.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Combining these surroundings, your content and phones that have made internet mobile and location aware (GPS), we can now interact with places in a whole new way! We are all about making these new experiences possible and offer a mobile and online platform that makes it easy to create, play and share GPS-based games and tours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(...) These scenarios are created by linking locations to content - photos, videos, sounds and notes -, adding challenges and choosing from a range of (game) rules, together shaping what we call a &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;scene&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. A location-based experience that lets people see their surroundings from a new point-of-view using their mobile phone."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Emotional Geographies&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Por último uma resenha de um livro que pode interessar aos que pesquisa a nova cultura da mobilidade, Geografia Emocional (&lt;a href="http://www.ashgate.com/default.aspx?page=637&amp;calcTitle=1&amp;title_id=6486&amp;edition_id=8404"&gt;Emotional Geographies&lt;/a&gt;. Eds. Joyce Davidson, Liz Bondi and Mick Smith (2007). Hampshire, GB: Ashgate Publishing Ltd. 258 pp. ISBN 978-0-7546-4375-3).  A resenha vem do &lt;a href="http://www.spaceandculture.org/2009/10/19/book-review-lines-horizons-fissures-fixtures-emotional-geographies/"&gt;Space and Culture&lt;/a&gt; e é de Cheryl Cowdy Crawford, da York University (post da Anne Galloway). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Coloco alguns trechos para que vocês possam ter uma idéia do livro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/emotionalgeographies.gif"/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"(...) It is interdisciplinarity at its finest, and the experience reminds me, as Davidson, Bondi and Smith do in their introduction to Emotional Geographies, that emotions have a place in the working lives of academics. Or, to put it more emphatically, "Clearly, our emotions matter" (1). Spatial affect is, in the essays included in the collection, recognised as materially important, not simply to the discipline of geography, but to other fields of academic study as well. Indeed, the editors express a desire to undermine rigid "disciplinary boundaries" (3). Contributors to the collection seek alternative perspectives in our understanding of the spatiality and temporality of emotions that will resonate with scholars as varied as our picket line, particularly those who are interested in the intersections of space, culture, and affect (3). While the editors define theirs as a "spatially-engaged approach to the study of emotions" in their introduction, it is quite evident that the text functions also as an emotionally-engaged approach to the study of space.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(...) Admittedly, not all of the chapters in Emotional Geographies respond to the particularities of my emotional and research demands. As the editors explain, the volume is organised around three core themes: "the location of emotions in bodies and places, the emotional relationality of people and environments, and representations of emotional geographies" (3). In section one, "Locating Emotion," each chapter explores the corporeality of emotions, including how dying, healing, and aging bodies intersect with place. Most intriguing are the chapters on travel, such as Jennie Germann Molz's "Guilty Pleasures of the Golden Arches," a study of emotional responses to McDonald's restaurants in narratives of travel, and John Urry's "The Place of Emotions within Place." I appreciate Molz's piece for its recognition of emotional ambivalence in our experiences of emotional landscapes, while Urry leaves me wondering if my desire to experience place meaningfully will always be hopelessly unrequited.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is most obviously the second theme that speaks most to my emotional and spatial experiences of a labour dispute. Chapters in Section Two, "Relating Emotion," each perform in different ways analyses of distinctive "emotional terrains," to quote Hester Parr, Chris Philo and Nicola Burns, authors of chapter seven's study of the emotional geographies of the Scottish Highlands. Something in their recognition of "the realities, processes and consequences of emotional repression as it happens in a distinctive geographical setting" rings true for me, especially now, as I return to this review in the aftermath of the strike at York (99). Their spatialisation of repression encourages readers to consider the ways emotional terrains - whether remote rural regions or the landscapes of educational institutions - may have trouble allowing emotions to matter, particularly when "emotional displays" are disruptive (87). (Repression is the most pragmatic of returns to the business of education, and so the evidence of the ways disruptive emotional displays marked the emotional terrain at York have long been removed, existing now only in photographs like the one above). Other chapters in this section, particularly David Conradson's "Freedom, Space and Perspective: Moving Encounters with Other Ecologies" pose interesting questions about the nature of the relationship between self and landscape. "What might it mean" Conradson ponders, "to conceptualise the engagement between the self and landscape as a relational encounter"? (103) The essay lucidly draws on notions of affect from psychoanalysis and human geography to inform its analysis of people's encounters with an English landscape, offering a unique perspective for those interested in eco-criticism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a scholar interested in representations of suburban space in literary texts, the latter section, "Representing Emotion," is also of particular interest to me. Most compelling here are Deborah Thien's chapter "Intimate Distances: Considering Questions of 'Us'" and Owain Jones' "An Ecology of Emotion, Memory, Self and Landscape." Thien challenges in surprising ways some of my pre-conceived notions about the ethical relationship between intimacy and space, calling upon readers to reconsider the value of distance, difference and alterity when intimacy is examined as a "spatial affair." I appreciate her work for its political commitment; likewise Jones, who reminds us that ?emotions are intensely political, gendered, and spatially articulated" (207).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The collection ends appropriately and effectively with Liz Bondi's "The Place of Emotions in Research," which supplements the introduction's defense of geography's "emotional turn," insisting on a more concerted appreciation of emotion in research practice. While she focuses on the necessity of acknowledging the emotional dimensions of scientific research in particular, scholars of all disciplines will certainly benefit from Bondi's reminder that "our feeling states and our thinking are closely intertwined" (236). What strikes me most is Bondi's assertion that it is quite possible to acknowledge our emotional and rational responses to research critically, and thus to sidestep participation in a more gratuitous "'emotionalisation' of culture" (237). Overall, Emotional Geographies elegantly succeeds in demonstrating just how critical participation in an emotionally- and rationally-engaged collaboration might look. It occurs to me that perhaps I have found something I didn't know I was looking for during the process of preparing this review, which is a permission of sorts. Permission to recognize the place of my untidy emotions in all the colliding facets of my professional life. For this, I am most appreciative."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-7337179492942297008?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/7337179492942297008/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=7337179492942297008&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/7337179492942297008" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/7337179492942297008" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/10/mobile-perceptions.html" title="Mobile Perceptions" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584673.post-1734239356516078048</id><published>2009-10-16T06:23:00.010-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-16T09:49:43.544-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="maps" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Blogs" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Smart Phone" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="anonymity" /><title type="text">Maps Localization, and Anonymity</title><content type="html">Maps, Localization, and Anonymity&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acabo de &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/andrelemos"&gt;tuitar&lt;/a&gt; três links para projejos e problemas que concernem o anonimato  e a privacidade nos blogs, principalmente para os "citizen journalists", nos celulares, por geolocalização e redes GSM. A geolocalização também é o tema do projeto "Hitoric Map Works" que oferece a possibilidade de navegar por mapas históriocs interligados aos mapas atuais. No final uma síntese provisória dentro do espírito de "work in progress" deste Carnet de Notes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O artigo do &lt;a href="http://www.pbs.org/mediashift/2009/10/why-bloggers-and-citizen-journalists-deserve-a-shield-law287.html"&gt;MediaShift&lt;/a&gt;, "Why Bloggers and Citizen Journalists Deserve A Shield Law", de Clothilde Le Coz, levanta a discussão sobre o direito ao anonimato e a proteção de fontes citadas nos Blogs. O argumento é que os blogs (os blogueiros) devem ter proteção direito à proteção de suas fontes e à liberdade de expressão de forma anônima afim de garantir o direito de expressão sem ser coagido ou censurado. A questão se apresenta nos EUA. No Brasil, a recente lei para internet em período eleitoral impede o anonimato, assim como a constituição brasileira em seu artigo quinto. Um debate sobre o anonimato na internet mereceria ser levado a sério. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Bom, vejam os argumentos do texto:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="ttp://www.pbs.org/mediashift/2009/10/why-bloggers-and-citizen-journalists-deserve-a-shield-law287.html"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/Josh_Wolf_event_poster_9-21-06_ver2.0-thumb-250x323-1173.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sobre proteção de fontes:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Today in the United States, there is no legislation that allows bloggers to protect their sources. Yet bloggers have become a great way for the public -- and journalists in particular -- to keep informed about important topics. A survey from Middleberg Communications and the Society for New Communications Research released on September 22 found that 66 percent of journalists use blogs to assist in their reporting. This means blogs play an important role in newsgathering and the press. So why not legally protect bloggers and citizen journalists by allowing them to use anonymity and protect their sources?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(...) The 2005 case of blogger Josh Wolf also emphasized the importance of online information to society. In July of that year, Wolf filmed a G8 protest in San Francisco. At one point during the protest, a police car was damaged during a clash between protesters and police. A cable station later aired some of the footage that Wolf posted on his blog, and it was then picked up by local affiliates of the national networks. Although Wolf denied having footage of the damaged car, a federal judge ordered him to hand over all of his unedited footage to a grand jury investigation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wolf refused on the basis of his rights under the U.S. Constitution's First Amendment and a California shield law that allows journalists to refuse to name sources or surrender unpublished material and notes. He was sent to prison for a month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As much as Wolf spending time in jail was unjust, imagine what would have happened if Wolf wasn't a journalist and couldn't argue his right to protect his sources? He would have been forced to give up his footage and thus become an accomplice in the arrest of protesters."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sobre o anonimato:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Reporters Without Borders deals with issues related to anonymity almost every day. Being anonymous on the web has unfortunately become synonymous with behaving in a cowardly fashion, or posting offensive comments. But in many countries, anonymity is all about protecting the security of bloggers who risk their lives in order to publish information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Saudi Arabia, the use of real names online is very recent because most bloggers there are afraid of being arrested if they criticize the government. American citizen journalists don't face these kind of restrictions or threats. For most of us living in the U.S., anonymity is not a matter of personal security.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But consider the example of Twitter user Elliot Madison. He was arrested by the FBI and charged of hindering prosecution after he allegedly used the social networking site Twitter to help protesters evade police at the G20 Summit in Pittsburgh. Madison was giving the location of the riot police on the ground, but so too were reporters and news helicopters. His arrest is certainly of concern, and it could have been avoided if he had the option of protecting his anonymity."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.rue89.com/2009/10/16/smartphone-comment-suivre-son-conjoint-par-gps"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009_10_16_Smartphoone_Localisation_illus.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O segundo tema deste post vem do &lt;a href="http://www.rue89.com/2009/10/16/smartphone-comment-suivre-son-conjoint-par-gps"&gt;Ecrans&lt;/a&gt;. Aqui a questão é a privacidade e também o anonimato no uso dos smart-phones. Segundo a matéria, um hacker mostrou que as operadoras e, qualquer pessoa com algum conhecimento e equipamentos, pode localizar qualquer celular GSM que tenha um GPS embarcado. E isso sem que o usuário saiba. Vejam trechos do texto "Smartphone : comment suivre son conjoint par GPS" de David Servenay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"(...) L'expérience consiste à monter un réseau GSM local : en fait, une grosse antenne attachée à un sapin, couplée à un ordinateur sous une tente (ça, c'est l'esprit Burning Man). Puis de faire tourner la machine avec des logiciels libres ("open source" pour les geeks) en reprenant les procédures de base (un protocole, en langage informatique) utilisés par tous les opérateurs et constructeurs de smartphones. Comme me l'a expliqué Romain Beauxis, riverain qui nous avait déjà éclairé sur les possibilités techniques en matière d'écoutes de portables:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(...) "Les smartphones utilisent presque tous un protocole par défaut qui donne leur position géographique. Donc n'importe quel opérateur téléphonique (ou bien des gens qui simulent un réseau GSM, avec OpenBSC) peut connaître la position d'un smartphone, sans que l'utilisateur puisse accepter ou refuser. Dans la pratique : j'achète une station GSM, j'installe le logiciel open source, et je peux connaître la position GPS des téléphones dans mon rayon d'action."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(...) "Il suffit de mettre une station GSM dans une camionnette, par exemple devant nos bureaux, pour savoir qui est dans ce périmètre. J'ajouterais que même si c'est théoriquement à la portée de n'importe qui, il faut déjà trouver une station GSM, ce qui est sans doute assez dur. Il faut aussi officiellement avoir une autorisation pour utiliser les fréquences."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Même analyse de Romain Beauxis, pour qui la techno est à la portée d'un « bricoleur ». Pas très rassurant : "Pour ma part, le simple fait que votre fournisseur puisse avoir accès à cette information me paraît problématique. Par exemple, SFR vend déjà en option pro une géolocalisation des téléphones des employés de son client." (...) &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.historicmapworks.com/Earth/location.php"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/fenwaysample.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O terceiro tema coloca o uso dos mapas entre o passado e o futuro. É o projeto &lt;a href="http://www.historicmapworks.com/Earth/location.php"&gt;Historic Maps&lt;/a&gt;. A partir da  geolocalização do usuário é possível navegar em um mapa do passado interpolado com o presente. Assim, afirmam os idealizadores do projeto:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Based in Westbrook Maine, Historic Map Works, LLC is an Internet company formed to create a historic digital map database of North America and the world. Drawing on the largest physical collection of American property atlases of its type, it is our aim to be the single best online destination for map enthusiasts and researchers alike.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition to our own atlas collection, we incorporated our scans of the antiquarian world map collection from the Osher Map Library and Smith Center for Cartographic Education located at the University of Southern Maine. Combining these collections allows site visitors a vast amount of information spanning several centuries of cartographic information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maps are then uploaded and cataloged for viewing on our website. Our technicians geocode each map to a modern map to enable the search by address function. Linking the historic images in our database with geocode data allows visitors to search by modern day address or latitude and longitude coordinates. Other methods to view our maps include browsing by geographic location as well as searching our maps via keywords, town names, makers names, or simply by year."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Um vídeo pode ser visto &lt;a href="http://www.historicmapworks.com/Resto.php" style="color: rgb(34, 70, 122); text-decoration: underline; "&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Síntese:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Em todos os projetos, vemos como as novas tecnologias de informação e comunicação estão trazendo velhas questões em novas roupagens (anonimato, vigilância, mapeamento, localização) para pensarmos a vivência no espaço urbano, a nossa relação com o local e às práticas sociais quotidianas. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;No caso dos blogs, as informações necessitam ser mantindas sob o anonimato e o segredo de fontes para que a censura ou outra forma de violência estatal não sejam exercidas contra os blogueiros. Deve-se aqui, garantir a abertura das formas de conversação e a liberdade de expressão. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;No que se refere aos telefones celulares, eles são hoje ferramentas inegáveis de sociabilidade, de uso informacional do espaço urbano, de contato permanente, de trabalho e lazer. No entanto, eles são também instrumentos invasivos, gerando controle, monitoramento e vigilância "locativas", atentando contra o direito ao anonimato e a privacidade. Formas de controle, monitoramento e vigilância estão em expansão hoje com as tecnologias móveis e redes sem fio. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Os mapas, sempre produção dos territórios (Latour), são formas de representar e apresentar o mundo criando maneiras específicas de visualização do espaço. O projeto citado apresenta a possibilidade de uma relação temporal com o espaço vivido apartir de mapas históricos e atuais. Assim, o usuário pode visualizar o lugar em que se encontra tendo ao mesmo tempo uma dimensão do passado e do presente. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Em todas as experiências, a dimensão locativa é a chave de compreensão das tensões e possibilidades políticas e culturais na atual fase da cibercultura. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-1734239356516078048?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/1734239356516078048/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=1734239356516078048&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/1734239356516078048" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/1734239356516078048" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/10/maps-localization-and-anonymity.html" title="Maps Localization, and Anonymity" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584673.post-2788875993013031907</id><published>2009-10-10T11:53:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-10T15:54:07.236-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="abandoned places" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="end of the world" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Places" /><title type="text">Places</title><content type="html">Places&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://weburbanist.com/2009/10/09/underground-rooms-waiting-for-the-end-of-the-world/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/emergency-and-bomb-shelters.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Para esperar o fim do mundo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lugares são pontos do espaço dotados de sentido social, cultural, histórico. Ele é o topus, onde a vida social ganha sentido e contornos mais nítidos lutando contra o vazio e a insignificancia do espaço ao redor. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Dois posts do WebUrbanists mostram isso pelo sentido oposto: Lugares para esperar o fim do mundo, cujo sentido de proteção pessoal se estabelece no esvaziamento de sentido social - a espera do fim da civilização, logo do social, da cultura e de todos os lugares &lt;a href="http://weburbanist.com/2009/10/09/underground-rooms-waiting-for-the-end-of-the-world/"&gt;(undergorund rooms)&lt;/a&gt;; e os lugares abandonados, que fizeram sentido em determinado momento, que deram abrigo a formas sociais e culturais e que, pelas suas próprias dinâmicas e a dimensão implacável do tempo, perderam sentido, viraram não-lugares, lugares abandobados: &lt;a href="http://weburbanist.com/2008/09/21/24-stunning-hdr-photographs-of-abandoned-places/"&gt;(Abandoned Places)&lt;/a&gt;. Vemos aqui lugares contruídos e abandonados onde a dimensão dos processos técnicos são norteadores da nossa relação com o espaço. A produção social do espaço, em sua natureza técnica, cria e apaga sentidos: plantas industriais que não servem mais, abrigos nucleares, espaço sociais fantasmagóricos.... Nada mais nada menos do que a dinâmica socio-técnica produzindo espacialização - pela construção ou pela destuição!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://weburbanist.com/2008/09/21/24-stunning-hdr-photographs-of-abandoned-places/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/hdr-do-not-enter.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Não entre!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://weburbanist.com/2008/09/21/24-stunning-hdr-photographs-of-abandoned-places/6-push-the-button/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/6-push-the-button.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aperte o botão!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-2788875993013031907?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://weburbanist.com/2008/09/21/24-stunning-hdr-photographs-of-abandoned-places/" title="Places" /><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/2788875993013031907/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=2788875993013031907&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/2788875993013031907" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/2788875993013031907" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/10/places.html" title="Places" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584673.post-238654924258783672</id><published>2009-10-06T19:08:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-10T15:54:59.092-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="twin tower" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Augmented Reality" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="iphone" /><title type="text">Irrealidade Aumentada?</title><content type="html">Irrealidade Aumentada?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imagem do Dia&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/twin.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A realidade aumentada coloca camadas de informação eletrônicas sobre o mundo "real". &lt;div&gt;Agora &lt;a href="http://vimeo.com/6923812"&gt;aplicação para iPhone&lt;/a&gt; mostra as fantasmagóricas Torres Gêmeas, lá onde as reais desapareceram. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Irrealidade Aumentada?

Veja a íntegra no link acima.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"CICLO COMUNICAR TECNOLOGIA&lt;br /&gt;André Lemos explica como a realidade aumentada será corriqueira na vida das pessoas&lt;br /&gt;João Casotti&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imagine a cena: você para em frente a um monumento público, tira o celular do bolso, aponta para a obra de arte e, em segundos, tem na tela todas as informações sobre a escultura. Satisfeito com o resultado, aponta o aparelho para o entorno da praça em que se encontra e recebe o endereço de uma loja próxima, onde poderá comprar um livro, de um restaurante para beber um café ou da linha de metrô mais próxima.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A descrição acima é um exemplo prático de realidade aumentada, uma tecnologia que está bem mais próxima de se tornar corriqueira do que imaginamos. É o que conta em detalhes André Lemos, professor da Faculdade de Comunicação da Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA). Engenheiro, mestre em política, ciência e tecnologia pela Coppe/UFRJ, doutor em sociologia pela Université Paris V, e pós-doutor pelas universidades de Alberta e McGill, no Canadá, ele atualmente coordena um projeto de pesquisa no CNPq sobre cibercidade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Confira a seguir a entrevista com André Lemos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nós da Comunicação ? Aos poucos, as pessoas estão falando sobre realidade aumentada. Quando surgiu essa tecnologia e quais fatores fazem dessa ?novidade? uma tendência para os próximos anos?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;André Lemos ? O termo foi proposto, nos anos 90, no treinamento de pilotos de avião da Boieng e só ganhou força agora, com o aumento do processamento da informação e das imagens. É herdeira do desenvolvimento de simuladores e da realidade virtual desde os anos 60. O que acho mais interessante é a possibilidade de ?interfacear? informações aos objetos e espaços urbanos, aumentando-os como uma carga de informação, ampliando as formas de uso. Há inúmeros exemplos na publicidade, no marketing, na ciência, na medicina, no turismo ou em navegação pelas cidades. A tendência para os próximos anos é aumentar seu uso tanto corporativo como social, utilizando as possibilidades de indexação de informação como mídia social interativa e participativa, como uma espécie de web 2.0 em interface com o espaço público.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nós da Comunicação ? Já existem campanhas de marketing ? como uma que vi da Nextel ?, que utilizam a realidade aumentada como recurso. Qual é sua expectativa sobre as possibilidades comerciais dessa tecnologia?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A. L. ? Há várias experiências no marketing e na publicidade (carros, salgadinhos, roupas), no campo científico (simulação de objetos, paisagens, sistemas) e no uso de sistemas de navegação pelo espaço urbano, como o Layar, o Mobvis, o Metro Paris, entre outros. Acho que as experiências crescerão muito nos próximos anos, consolidando a ideia de uma ?internet das coisas?, na qual a informação não estará apenas na rede, no ciberespaço ?lá em cima?, na ?matrix?, mas colada aos objetos da vida cotidiana como uma espécie de post it eletrônico, acessível pelos telefones celulares. Estamos vendo agora uma explosão de sistemas para os smartphone, especialmente para o iPhone.

Havia já piublicado &lt;a href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/07/revolution-and-sense-of-technology.html"&gt;aqu&lt;/a&gt;i quando escrevi, mas só foi publicado agora. Segue abaixo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nada encarna melhor o espírito da revolução do que as proezas da tecnologia. Na modernidade, a ciência e a técnica substituem a religião e Deus na construção do novo. A tecnologia aponta para o u-topos e o u-cronos alimentando sonhos. Com a revolução da informática, voltamos ao velho sonho de um mundo da comunicação livre, sem entraves, democrático, global. As redes sempre produzem este imaginário. Ecumênicas, elas fomentam a panacéia do estar-junto. Foi assim com o telégrafo e a estrada de ferro, com o rádio, o telefone e as autoestradas; com a TV, os aviões e a viagem à lua. É assim hoje com a internet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A (revolução da) cibercultura implica novos sentidos da tecnologia. O paradigma informacional instaura a passagem do modo industrial para o eletrônico. O Gestell (Heidegger) é a essência da técnica moderna: dominação científica da natureza, onde esta torna-se fundo para a intervenção tecnocientífica. O novo paradigma traduz o mundo em dados binários, para posterior processamento em máquinas informacionais, os computadores. A dominação agora é digital. O sentido (histórico) é construído pela tradução da natureza na linguagem dos algoritmos, inserindo o domínio técnico na esfera do discurso e da comunicação. A revolução algorítmica transforma a sociedade industrial a parir de três pilares fundamentais: a rede (informação), a sociabilidade (comunicação) e a globalização (mundialização). Esse tripé desenha a relação política da revolução técnica atual. Esta aponta para a expansão da informatização do mundo, onde potência comunicativa e processamento de dados aumentarão.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mas,para além do domínio técnico, e através dele, haveria uma revolução social em marcha. Hoje nada se compara à força transformadora da informatização da sociedade nos seus três princípios: a liberação da palavra (emissão), a conexão planetária e a reconfiguração sociocultural. A liberação da palavra traz conseqüências para a constituição da opinião e da esfera públicas. Podemos afirmar que a conversação mundial se ampliou com sistemas de comunicação transversais como blogs, microblogs, wikis e outras redes sociais. A liberação da emissão (antes controlada pelos mass media) é correlata à abertura dos sentidos. A transformação da esfera midiática se dá com o surgimento de funções conversacionais pós-massivas, permitindo, a qualquer pessoa, consumir, produzir e distribuir informação sem ter que movimentar grandes volumes financeiros ou pedir concessão a quem quer que seja (vejam o impacto do Twitter na atual tensão pós-eleições no Irã). A livre circulação da palavra se dá pela conexão mundial em redes (internet e celulares). A constituição dessa esfera pública mundial tem implicações políticas profundas. Aparece aqui o que sentimos no dia a dia: reconfiguração social, cultural e política do sistema infocomunicacional global, com novas mediações e agentes criando "revoluções" no centro da polis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A relação entre a comunicação (a potência social) e a técnica (a potência da ação) está na base da discussão política, desde sempre. A técnica - a esfera da ação sobre o mundo, e a comunicação - o discurso como forma de virtualização dos sentidos, são dimensões essenciais do humano. Estas balizam as relações sociais, dimensionando a sua coesão e futuro. Para pensarmos a revolução da cibercultura é necessário partir do reconhecimento dos rumos da democracia (cada vez mais planetária) em uma sociedade construída, de agora em diante, sobre um outro modelo comunicacional: às funções massivas informacionais adicionam-se funções pós-massivas conversacionais. O impacto da nova convergência comunicação-tecnologia é gigantesco: liberação da emissão, crise das mediações, conexão bidirecional global, software e cultura "livre", redes sociais, mobilização e mobilidade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mas resta perguntar para onde essa revolução nos levará. Voltemos ao começo. O sentido aqui é outro; o de sua essência. A técnica moderna é ainda dominação científica da natureza e do outro. Mas, diferente das tecnologias do modelo industrial/massivo, que tinha por modo de ser a extração material e energética da natureza para produção de bens e difusão de informações centralizadas, parece que a essência da tecnologia digital é a tradução da natureza em bits para produção de formatos comunicativos e conversacionais globais. É o seu modo de ser, o seu princípio. Por esse prisma, o sentido da revolução técnica está aberto, sendo produzido neste exato momento no jogo das subjetividades em rede. Não é a primeira vez, certamente, mas podemos agora produzir sentido coletivamente, cooperativamente, no jogo das subjetividades abertas ao outro, para além das querelas identitárias, das fronteiras, das culturas, das religiões e dos territórios. Mas há aqui ainda uma utopia. Se houver uma revolução tecnológica, ela se dará na produção aberta e coletiva dos sentidos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Referência&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heidegger, M., Essais et Conférences.

O primeiro usa as mídias sociais para uma mobilidade mais inteligente. Já mostrei neste Carnet várias delas. O segundo post mostra como os dispositivos inteligentes, no caso um GPS, podem tornar a mobilidade bastante estúpida e sem sentido. Vejam no final um vídeo sobre isso.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://mashable.com/2009/09/29/social-media-transportation/"&gt;Smarter Transportation&lt;/a&gt; - Interessante post apresentando 10 ferramentas que usam as formas participativas das "social media", permitindo navegar o espaço urbano de forma (mais) inteligente. O que está em destaque aqui é o poder da informação gerada pelo que tenho chamado de 1. "liberação" da emissão, 2, a conexão em rede, 3. reconfigurando a nossa visão do espaço, o uso dos lugares e a mobilidade e vivência nas cidades contemporâneas. É o que podemos chamar de processos de espacialização com as atuais mídias locativas e ferramentas da "web 2.0". Nos exemplos apresentados abaixo vemos que as informações geradas pelos usuários fornecem informações que permitem ampliar o conhecimento espacial e local, evitar problemas urbanos, aumentando a "inteligência coletiva" do deslocamento. É o que o autor chama de "smart transportation".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vejam abaixo as principais ferramentas apontadas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. &lt;a href="http://maps.google.com/" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: none; color: rgb(64, 158, 211); "&gt;Google Maps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Google Maps is the crème de la crème of online mapping applications, with satellite and terrain maps, embedded Wikipedia information, local business info, and turn-by-turn directions for car, walking, and public transit. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their ?Street View? technology, for example, offers impressive and highly useful 360 degree panoramic street-level photographs for an unmatched and growing number of cities around the world. And their live and predictive traffic maps can show users traffic congestion now or in the future (based on historical data) for at least 30 different cities. These sorts of innovative features are why Google Maps is one of the best tools any city navigator can have in his or her arsenal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;a href="http://www.waze.com/"&gt;Waze&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://ec.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/waze.jpg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like Google?s traffic maps, Waze collects real-time information from users using their mobile phone applications. If you?re stuck in traffic, the Waze app will send data about where you are and how fast you?re going to others in your area so they can reroute to a road with less traffic congestion. Where Waze one-ups Google is in the ability for people to report on the causes of traffic (such as an accident, downed tree, or construction) or to report speed traps.&lt;br /&gt;If you?re just interested in avoiding speed traps, check out &lt;a href="http://trapster.com/"&gt;Trapster&lt;/a&gt;, a crowdsourced speed trap sharing system that alerts you to speed traps and red-light cameras.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;a href="http://www.wayfaring.com/" &gt;Wayfaring&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://ec.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/wayfaring.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wayfaring is a great Google Maps mashup that helps users to easily create their own information maps. Whether mapping the route of your morning jog, keeping track of where you went on your roadtrip, or mapping out the best places for pizza in Chicago, Wayfaring lets users share their experiences with one another. It?s a great way to connect with other local travelers or find cool places or routes when in a new city.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;a href="http://www.walkscore.com/"&gt;Walkscore&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://ec.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/walkscore.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because not all transportation is done on wheels, Walk Score will tell you the most walkable places to live. What makes an area walkable? Public spaces, nearby amenities, a pedestrian centric design (with parking lots behind businesses and storefronts close to the sidewalk), slow traffic, count-down crosswalk timers, and accessibility features (like wheelchair ramps), among other things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enter your address into Walk Score to see how walkable your neighborhood is, and get details on nearby restaurants, grocery stores, libraries, public parks, schools, and other amenities. Any score above 80 means you live in an area where a car isn?t necessary to get by.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;a href="http://www.mapmyride.com/"&gt;MapMyRide&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe src="http://js.mapmyfitness.com/embed/blogview.html?r=5c4e9cf83e4b31d8256b32b35a67e414&amp;amp;u=e&amp;amp;t=ride" height="450px" width="550px" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those of you who get around on two wheels, MapMyRide is for you. The site lets you plot your bike riding routes using Google Maps, and view other routes that fellow bikers have entered. You can view routes on a regular map, or add in elevation data to see how much uphill and downhill riding you?ll have to contend with. Where available, you can also preview what that route will look like at bike level by using Google?s Street View. MapMyRide also offers a calculator to estimate how many calories your bike ride will burn, and premium memberships with workout tracking and printable maps. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Also check out &lt;a href="http://www.bikely.com/"&gt;Bikely&lt;/a&gt;, a similar site where riders share their biking routes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://ec.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/hopstop.jpg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, sometimes the weather makes riding your bike or walking a less than desirable prospect ? public transportation to the rescue! HopStop makes riding the subway or the bus in New York, New Jersey, Long Island, Boston Chicago, San Francisco, Washington DC, Philadelphia, London, and Paris a breeze. Unless you?re very familiar with a public transportation system, getting around in a new city can be tough. HopStop takes out the guesswork by telling you which trains and buses to take and how to get from station to station.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I use it to map out subway routes whenever I am traveling in a city where I don?t know the system very well. Also check out &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/transit"&gt;Google Transit&lt;/a&gt;, which gives transportation directions for more than 425 cities around the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. &lt;a href="http://zimride.com/"&gt;Zimride&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://ec.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/zimride.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you do plan to take a car, why not share a ride with someone else? Carpooling is better for the environment, it saves money, and it can save time if it makes you eligible for a high speed HOV lane during your commute. Zimride, which recently completed a 12 week mentorship program as part of the &lt;a href="http://mashable.com/2009/09/01/facebook-fbfund-startups/"&gt;fbFund seed program&lt;/a&gt;, connects carpoolers together for one-time rides, regular commutes, and cab shares in the US and Canada. Because of Zimride?s clever integration with Facebook Connect, you can query your Facebook &lt;a href="http://www.blippr.com/apps/336650-Facebook"&gt;&lt;img class="wp-smiley" src="http://static1.blippr.com/images/inline-face_05.png?1237798206" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; friends or your work or school network for rides to help ensure that you?re not getting into the car with an axe murderer (and increase the likelihood of finding someone in your area heading in the same direction as you).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also check out &lt;a href="http://avego.com/"&gt;Avego&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;a href="https://www.ridecharge.com/"&gt;RideCharge&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://ec.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/ridecharge.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you neither own a car nor want to get into one with a complete stranger, then RideCharge might be for you. RideCharge lets you book taxis in 27 metro areas via your mobile device so that you never need to be caught out in the rain trying to hail a cab. The site is especially helpful for corporate travelers or those who need to be in a specific place at a specific time. If you pre-book your taxi, sedan, or shuttle, you can be sure you?ll get to your appointment on time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. &lt;a href="http://gasbuddy.com/"&gt;GasBuddy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://ec.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/gasbuddy.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those who need to travel by car, GasBuddy is a must-visit site. Relying on crowd submitted information, GasBuddy delivers up-to-date gas prices for cities across the US and Canada, so that you can always find the lowest gas prices in your area. Once you locate the cheapest gas station, use &lt;a href="http://gasedge.com/"&gt;GasEdge&lt;/a&gt; to calculate if the extra driving for an out-of-the-way bargain will actually be worth it, or if going to your regular, but more expensive, station will actually save you money in the end.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. &lt;a href="http://www.fuelfrog.com/"&gt;FuelFrog&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://ec.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/fuelfrog.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FuelFrog lets you log mileage between fill ups, how much gas cost, and how many gallons or liters you added to your tank simply by tweeting your daily fuel data. The site then creates handy graphs that can be helpful in charting your fuel usage, identifying trends in your local gas prices, and learning how your car uses fuel (which could help alert you to issues like the need for a tune-up or that your tires are low on air). The information could also help you adjust your transportation habits so that you burn less fuel and save money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also check out &lt;a href="http://mymilemarker.com/"&gt;MyMileMarker&lt;/a&gt;, which lets you enter fuel data via its web site, right from the pump through a special mobile site, or on Twitter&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BONUS: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.yelp.com/"&gt;Yelp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once you?ve figured out how to navigate around your city using social media tools, you need somewhere to go. The first place to turn to find your city?s hotspots should be Yelp, a crowd-powered ratings and reviews site that offers listings for thousands of restaurants and other local businesses in cities across the US and the UK.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also check out &lt;a href="http://www.playfoursquare.com/"&gt;foursquare&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://brightkite.com/"&gt;Brightkite&lt;/a&gt; to see what people in your city are up to and where they?re hanging out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O outro post, do Urban Tick, &lt;a href="http://urbantick.blogspot.com/2009/09/getting-lost-with-gps.html"&gt;Get Lost&lt;/a&gt;, mostra como as pessoas se perdem usando o GPS, por erro do próprio dispositivo. Vejam trechos e vídeo da BBC:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/talking_point/8174216.stm"&gt;BBC&lt;/a&gt; has recently collected a number of stories of people getting lost with the GPS. Due to a software fault : ) the GPS will not correct your spelling mistakes. And it seems that people quite often misspell their destination. And a little knowledge is still needed to distinguish between Capri and Capri, as a Swedish couple have learned after they arrived in the Industrial Town of Capri instead of the island Capri in Italy. via &lt;a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/GPS-City/24852380666?ref=nf" style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127); text-decoration: none; "&gt;GPSCity&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="400" height="225"&gt;&lt;param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=6671301&amp;amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;amp;show_title=1&amp;amp;show_byline=1&amp;amp;show_portrait=0&amp;amp;color=&amp;amp;fullscreen=1" /&gt;&lt;embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=6671301&amp;amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;amp;show_title=1&amp;amp;show_byline=1&amp;amp;show_portrait=0&amp;amp;color=&amp;amp;fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="400" height="225"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://vimeo.com/6671301"&gt;GPS&lt;/a&gt; from &lt;a href="http://vimeo.com/dustfilms"&gt;DustFilms&lt;/a&gt; on &lt;a href="http://vimeo.com"&gt;Vimeo&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-2319634945778354780?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/2319634945778354780/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=2319634945778354780&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/2319634945778354780" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/2319634945778354780" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/10/gps-e-social-media-map.html" title="GPS e Social Media Map" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584673.post-8720313254157591186</id><published>2009-09-29T17:54:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-29T20:35:59.218-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Estadao" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Link" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Augmented Reality" /><title type="text">Realidade Aumentada</title><content type="html">Realidade Aumentada no &lt;a href="http://www.estadao.com.br/tecnologia/link/not_tec3012,0.shtm"&gt;Link - Estadao.com.br&lt;/a&gt;. Vejam a matéria abaixo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Que tal fazer download de todo o ciberespaço?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.estadao.com.br/imagens/l290/id_rdax_290x232.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;REPRODUÇÃO&lt;br /&gt;O aplicativo Augmented ID reconhece o rosto da pessoa e mostra seus perfis em redes sociais&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quando surgiu a web, instituições e costumes foram digitalizados. Comunidades se tornaram virtuais; o comércio, eletrônico; e as personalidades viraram avatares. O virtual foi se tornando tão, mas tão real que, hoje, a promessa é que aconteça o inverso: ele invadirá o cotidiano e o mundo será o navegador. Parece ficção científica, mas os aplicativos de realidade aumentada provam que não é.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pelo mundo, surgem programas como o holandês Layar, um navegador para o mundo real, e até uma lente de contato digital está em desenvolvimento. Assustador? "Nem um pouco. Adicionando mais informações ao nosso dia-a-dia, estamos construindo um mundo novo", diz Marteen Lenz-Fitzgerald, criador do Layar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Para o pesquisador de cultura digital André Lemos a fusão entre dispositivos móveis, GPS e aplicativos de realidade aumentada pode significar o fim da "primeira fase da internet". Lemos explica que a intenção da realidade aumentada é oposta ao que propunha a realidade virtual e seus mundos à parte, como o Second Life. Em vez de isolar a pessoa e criar um outro universo, a realidade aumentada ?enriquece o ambiente? com informações, "como se colasse post-its nos lugares".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"A ideia nunca foi que a informação ficasse aprisionada em um espaço virtual, fora da minha realidade concreta, e que eu teria que me conectar em uma Matrix para navegar", explica. "Está na hora de o ciberespaço baixar no mundo real".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As primeiras tentativas de integrar real com virtual foram feitas ainda nos anos 60 pelo cientista Ivan Sutherland, em Harvard. Mesmo primitivas, elas já mostravam, segundo o especialista Romero Tori, "que fundir esses dois universos poderia significar uma expansão dos sentidos". Na década de 90, a ideia comum era a internet como ciberespaço descolado da realidade. "Tenho trabalhado para reforçar uma hipótese contrária a isso", diz André Lemos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Se a tendência vista nos aplicativos e softwares descritos nesta edição se confirmar, pode ir se preparando para ver uma mudança muito profunda na maneira de se conectar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Essa revolução vai além de conexões móveis e aparelhos portáteis. Para André Lemos, é o fim da era do upload, em que virtualizávamos as instituições. Agora, a internet estará em todas as coisas. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aplicativos como o Augmented ID são a mais perfeita tradução do que Lemos exemplifica. Imagine: ele "aumenta" a identidade de uma pessoa, reconhecendo o rosto dela e relacionando-o ao perfil das redes sociais.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Eu acho que a tecnologia terá um impacto não só no entretenimento, mas também na maneira como trabalhamos e vivemos", diz Dan Gärdenfors, criador desse aplicativo. Para ele, a realidade aumentada liga o mundo real às informações que as pessoas têm sobre as coisas. "Isso vai definitivamente influenciar a maneira como as pessoas avaliam as coisas e dividem as experiências", diz.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mudança que não deve tardar. Donos de telefones com o sistema operacional Android, do Google, já têm acesso desde 2008 a programas como o Wikitude AR Travel, um guia que utiliza o GPS, a câmera e a bússola do aparelho para mostrar informações sobre pontos de interesse em várias cidades. Projetos semelhantes já estão sendo criados para o iPhone, da Apple.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Acho que a popularização da mistura entre real e digital vai se dar mesmo com as tecnologias portáteis: telefones celulares, smartphones e netbooks", aposta Lemos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A importância da realidade aumentada cresce tanto que já existem até pesquisadores que acham que ela deve ser uma política pública. O norte-americano Rob Rhyne, por exemplo, defende que o governo seja o provedor de cidades invisíveis, formadas por informações digitais sobrepostas ao real. Se você apontar seu celular para uma placa, você saberia onde fica o metrô mais próximo, para que lado é o museu e até a taxa de criminalidade daquele bairro. E mais: você ajudaria a juntar esses dados, em um espécie de democracia 2.0. "A realidade aumentada tem uma enorme força política. Ela abre uma janela não para outro mundo, mas para o nosso. Só que melhorado", diz Rhyne.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-8720313254157591186?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://www.estadao.com.br/tecnologia/link/not_tec3012,0.shtm" title="Realidade Aumentada" /><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/8720313254157591186/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=8720313254157591186&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/8720313254157591186" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/8720313254157591186" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/09/realidade-aumentada.html" title="Realidade Aumentada" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584673.post-9090508079656197668</id><published>2009-09-29T17:39:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-29T18:08:29.661-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Cibercultura 10+10" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Brazil" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="cyberculture" /><title type="text">Cibercultura</title><content type="html">Cibercultura 10+10&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: medium; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;Gilberto Gil, Pierre Levy, André Lemos, Laymert García, Alfredo Manevy, Cláudio Prado e Sérgio Amadeu juntos discutem a cibercultura. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; "&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span dir="ltr"&gt;Evento em Santos propõe um balanço e reflexão sobre os últimos dez anos e do futuro da cultura digital no Brasil e no mundo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.5cm; "&gt;O primeiro dia, quinta-feira agora (dia 1º), será uma discussão sobre os últimos dez anos e sobre os próximos dez.

This has meant the employment of certain technologies (passports, national identity letters, RFID, among others), providing interconnected data base systems with information according to specific institutional protocols. In this way, we define identification as visibility and verification of specific details of people?s lives. Likewise, these identification systems have responded to various functions: security, migration control, goods and service administration, as well for territory, space and group access.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;The historical, social and politic contexts shape the particular purposes to which each identification system responds. Large-scale surveillance systems to identify the population have been installed in Latin America after decades of colonial, military and single-party governments In addition they have been prompted by increasing multiculturalism in cities, Population growth, migration rates, the perceived rise in terrorism, public security and health risks, as well as the creation of public policies (to aid poverty and unemployment) and globalization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt; These conditions have caused the harmonization and articulation of corporations, institutions, technologies and specific protocols for citizen identification in Latin American countries, , depending on each country or region?s particular situation, and its relationship with other regions worldwide. Nevertheless, the Latin American environment allows us to consider the construction of privacy, identities, forms of government and the possibility of resistance policies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="line-height: 150%; font-variant: small-caps; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14pt;" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;paper proposals &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;In line with this analytic framework, the University of the State of Mexico, Faculty of Politics and Social Studies, hereby invites scholars, analysts and activists in Latin America and worldwide, interested in identification and surveillance, in relation to such matters as cultural or ethnic identities, privacy and data protection, new identification technologies (biometrics, RFID, etc), public policies, security, communication, ethics, law, or modes of critique or resistance; to participate in the International Symposium ?Identification, identity and surveillance in Latin America?, by sending a lecture proposal. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;Please send an abstract, 300-500 words long, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;Arial 12, space line 1.5&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;, to the following e-mail: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;surveillance.studies.mexico@gmail.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;, before &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;October 30&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt; 2009&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;.

Entrei no seu site, peguei o endereço mais próximo da minha casa, cliquei na opção mapa e abri no &lt;a href="http://google.com/maps"&gt;Google Maps&lt;/a&gt;. Vi que fica mesmo perto, mas queria saber exatamente onde, em que prédio e a que distância da minha casa para ver se posso ir a pé. Bom, sei que dá para ir a pé, mas não sei exatamente onde ele fica. Sei mais ou menos, mas não exatamente. Um mapa impresso não me permitiria a navegação, mas me informaria exatamente onde ele está. Não poderia mudar de escala e realizar "zoom out e in", mas poderia ver com mais precisão. Bom, poderia se o mapa fosse um mapa de bancos e não um mapa da cidade. Com o mapa impresso genérico da cidade eu não poderia perguntar onde fica o banco mais próximo da minha casa, nem navegar para dentro ou fora, para norte ou sul. Com o mapa digital tenho a navegação e a busca em banco de dados, que me ajuda muito, embora impreciso. Navegar é impreciso! Aqui, nos mapas digitais tipo Google Maps, temos um erro que se assemelha em muito a um movimento, a um erro de navegação, a sombras nos traçados, a erros dos indicadores de latitude e longitude, de mimetismo dos mapas de ruas e das fotos aéreas.  A miopia do  Google Maps coloca, como voces podem ver abaixo na imagem, o banco no meio da pista, entre os carros.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/banco.gif" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isto mostra os desvios e as imprecisões dos sistemas de localização . Se fosse seguir ao pé da letra, talvez, no meu caso, eu morresse atropelado. O exemplo me lembrou os trabalhos de Aram Bartholl &lt;a href="http://datenform.de/map.html"&gt;Netzdatenwelt vs. Alltagslebensraum&lt;/a&gt; que brincam justamente com essas imprecisões colocando marcadores "reais" nos lugares "exatos" indicados pelos erros dos sistemas.  Isso mostra que o mapa produz o território e as relações de espacialização daí derivadas, que eles nunca são miméticos com o espaço real e que a localização é sempre relativa e só se estabelece pelo jogo com os erros e as imprecisões.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Navegar é mesmo impreciso!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://datenform.de/map.html"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/arambartholl.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-6770226790930844275?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://datenform.de/map.html" title="Miopia dos Mapas" /><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/6770226790930844275/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=6770226790930844275&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/6770226790930844275" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/6770226790930844275" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/09/miopia-dos-mapas.html" title="Miopia dos Mapas" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584673.post-6413390966248376035</id><published>2009-09-13T10:22:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-13T10:48:01.161-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="maps" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Histories de Barcelona" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Bdebarna" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="city" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="narrative" /><title type="text">Històries de Barcelona</title><content type="html">&lt;a href="http://www.bdebarna.net/v2/index.php"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/bdebarna.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acabo de descobrir, por intermédio de Loreto Saavedra Sánchez (que conheci em 2008 no Media Lab Prado, doutoranda pela Universidade Complutense de Madri e que deverá passar um tempo como pesquisadora associada do GPC), o projeto de mapeamento de histórias de uma cidade, &lt;a href="http://www.bdebarna.net/v2/que_es.php"&gt;Bdebarna. Històries de Barcelona &lt;/a&gt;. Aqui os cidadãos podem escrever livremente sobre sua cidade e deixar suas impressões em um mapa para que outros as conheçam e participem por sua vez. Muito interessante os temas, os textos, e toda a experiência de apropriação narrativa da capital da Catalunha.  A navegação pode ser por temas, por bairros, por autores, por histórias mais comentadas ou mais lidas. Há também fotos e vídeos, como os exemplos abaixo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.bdebarna.net/v2/mapa.php?mapa_id=106&amp;amp;historia=2466&amp;amp;PHPSESSID=05453bea43fdf4821fd94bfa2771123f"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/video_histories.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Vídeo (clique no link para ver no contexto)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.bdebarna.net/v2/mapa.php?mapa_id=57&amp;amp;historia=122"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/minut_histories.gif" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Foto (clique no link para ver no contexto)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Abaixo uma descrição do projeto como no site e um comentário com alguns links.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Què és Bdebarna?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Hace unos años comenzaron a aparecer unos graffiti misteriosos en los muros de la ciudad nueva de Fez, en Marruecos. Se descubrió que los trazaba un vagabundo, un campesino emigrado que no se había integrado en la vida urbana y que para orientarse debía marcar itinerarios de su propio mapa secreto, superponiéndolos a la topografía de la ciudad moderna que le era extraña y hostil". Suicidios ejemplares de Enrique Vila-Matas&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A la manera del protagonista de la història, ens hem proposat de posar al descobert el mapa secret que amaga Barcelona, el que ens fa la ciutat més habitable i la converteix en quelcom més que un munt de pedres, formigó i carrers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Us heu enamorat passejant pels carrers del Gòtic? Teniu una proposta interessant per al vostre barri i la voleu donar a conèixer? heu patit les nefastes conseqüències de l'atac d'un colom a la plaça Catalunya i no sabeu on explicar-ho?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sou aventurers de l'asfalt, somniadors desbordats d'històries de la ciutat? Voleu expressar-vos amb llibertat sobre tot allò que afecta Barcelona?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Us agrada conèixer les opinions de la gent? Descobrir anècdotes, idees, retalls d'altres vides? Aquest és el vostre site. Un site per construir i conèixer una ciutat diferent. Una ciutat de tothom."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Como alguns projetos já apontados neste Carnet (&lt;a href="http://murmurtoronto.ca/"&gt;MurMur&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.batteryradio.com/Heresay/Heresay.html"&gt;Hear about Here&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.theorganiccity.com/wordpress/"&gt;Organic City&lt;/a&gt;, entre outros), trata-se de novas possibilidades para produção de narrativas de baixo para cima, criando aberruras para se contar histórias, fazer críticas, dar informação, postar fotos ou vídeos sobre um determinado espaço urbano e ao mesmo tempo mapeá-las para que haja um enraizamento locativo da experiência. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Este e outros projetos do gênero indicam a força locativa da web 2.0. É muito bom ler as histórias oficiais das cidades, mas há aqui um frecor, uma apropriação criativa do espaço que as narrativas oficiais não produzem e não alcançam. Vemos no exemplo acima histórias contadas por pessoas comuns e por qualquer pessoa que se sinta envolvida com a cidade (no caso a bela e pulsante Barcelona). Esta apropriação narrativa do urbano se dá pela indexação geo-espacial seja de histórias de amor, de queixas, de relatos históricos, de ficção ou de fatos do quotidiano. Abre-se aqui as vias para uma verdadeira conversação localizada, típica das funções pós-massivas da Web 2.0, indexada em mapas. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Os mapas aqui podem ser verdadeiramente a expressão do território e, talvez, pela primeira vez, a sua representação exata em escala 1x1, o próprio território. Não seriam os mapas digitais uma performance produtora dos territórios, diferentes dos mapas analógicos, estes meras representações do espaço? A discussão é de monta e continuaremos em outro momento (aliás já fizemos algumas discussões sobre mapas nesse Carnet: &lt;a href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2008/03/mapping-everything.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2008/03/cartography.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt; e &lt;a href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2008/07/cybercartography.html"&gt;aqui&lt;/a&gt;, algumas delas). Bom, sobre esse tema e hipótese, sugiro a leitura do texto "&lt;a href="http://www.banffcentre.ca/bnmi/programs/archives/2005/refresh/docs/conferences/martin_rieser.pdf"&gt;Locative Media and Spatial Narrative&lt;/a&gt;" de  Martin Rieser e, principalmente do &lt;a href="http://www.bruno-latour.fr/articles/article/117-MAP-SUISSE-3rd-BL.pdf"&gt;"The Territory is the Map - Space in the Age of Digital Navigation&lt;/a&gt;" de  Valérie November, Eduardo Camacho-Hübner e Bruno Latour onde esta tese está mais explícita. Neste último podemos ler:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"We want to show here, thanks to the fecund interface of three fields, science studies, risk geography and knowledge management,4 that the lack of understanding of this relationship between map, territory and risks is an unfortunate consequence of the way the mapping impulse has been interpreted during the modernist period ?from the 18th to the end of the 20th century (Latour, 1993). So much so, that, as our title indicates, there might be nothing more in the territory than what is in the map. We want to argue that, because of the advent of digital navigation (Cartwright and Hunter, 1999; Fabrikant, 2000), a very different interpretation of the mapping enterprise can be introduced that allows to distinguish in retrospect a mimetic from a navigational use of maps. This distinction, in turn, might help geography to grasp the very idea of risks, and go beyond its divide between ?physical? and ?human? geography as some geographers have already exhorted us to do (Massey 2000, Lane 2001, Thrift 2002, Harrisson et al 2004). We might even in the end overcome the very difference between physical and human geography."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-6413390966248376035?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://www.bdebarna.net/v2/que_es.php" title="Històries de Barcelona" /><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/6413390966248376035/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=6413390966248376035&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/6413390966248376035" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/6413390966248376035" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/09/histories-de-barcelona.html" title="Històries de Barcelona" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584673.post-8464802144842228962</id><published>2009-09-12T07:23:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-12T13:29:33.065-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="you are not here" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="soundwalk" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="hear here" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="sound mapping" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="locative media" /><title type="text">Here and There</title><content type="html">Here and There&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interessantes projetos tensionando a nossa vivência no espaço urbano, questionando o nosso lugar no mundo seja através de paisagens sonoras e narrativas, seja através de viagens deslocadas no tempo e no espaço. Todos os projetos utilizam mídias locativas (basicamente aqui mapas, mp3 players e celulares), para registrar locais e suas paisagens sonoras. O interessante é que as experiências com as novas tecnologias se dão no uso do espaço urbano e requer do usuário uma imersão nesses lugares. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Vou citar  nesse post 3 projetos que trazem esta dimensão locativa e de certa forma, um estranhamento. Podemos ver aqui potencialidades para que as tecnologias móveis desempenhem efetivamente "funções pós-massivas". Sugiro que voces não fiquem apenas no meu post e que visitem os sites citados pois há toda uma imersão visual e sonora muito interessante que não reproduzo aqui.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Primeiro gostaria de destacar o "&lt;a href="http://www.youarenothere.org/"&gt;You Are Not Here&lt;/a&gt;". Este projeto desloca o usuário do seu lugar criando um estranhamento espaço-temporal. Ao andar por uma cidade, a experiência coloca o usuário navegando por meio de mapas, virtualmente, em outra cidade.  "You are not here" produz assim deslocamento e localização ao mesmo tempo (daí a sensação de estranhamento). Por exemplo, o usuário pode visitar virtualmente a Faixa de Gaza, passeando por Tel Aviv, ou Bagdá através das ruas de NY. Isso é possível através de mapas e telefones celulares. Veja o site e o vídeo para melhor compreensão da experiência.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"You Are Not Here.org is an urban tourism mash-up. It takes place in the streets of one city and invites participants to become meta-tourists of another city. Download a map, take your phone with you and go tour &lt;a href="http://www.youarenothere.org/yanh-tours/gaza-tel-aviv"&gt;Gaza through the streets of Tel Aviv&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.youarenothere.org/yanh-tours/baghdad-new-york"&gt;Baghdad through the streets of New York&lt;/a&gt;."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/youarenothere.gif" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vejam o vídeo abaixo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;embed src="http://blip.tv/play/gq1ap8EKhJQs%2Em4v" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="300" height="270" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Na mesma "vibe", gostaria de destacar mais dois projetos que ressaltam a paisagem sonora das cidades e as narrativas aí acopladas por qualquer pessoa. Aqui a dimensão locativa se dá pela navegação sonora do espaço e pela audição de histórias contadas por pessoas comuns sobre determinados lugares da cidade. O primeiro é o projeto &lt;a href="http://soundwalk.com/"&gt;Soundwalk&lt;/a&gt; que, como escreve Mark Kramer no &lt;a href="http://www.smartmobs.com/2009/09/11/aural-augmented-reality-soundwalk/"&gt;Smart Mobs&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;i&gt;"could go beyond it?s commercial purpose and become a form of ?Aural Augmented Reality? for mobile learning. I can imagine how the Soundwalk could be used as a learning experience set in the real world using the cityscape as a backdrop for a ?ction, like in a movie. (...) 'Soundwalk is part of the o?cial programming of Nuit Blanche 2009, an international arts festival taking place in Paris on October 3. For this occasion, Soundwalk is launching an exclusive iPhone application that will be free to the public for one night only. In addition, all ?ve Paris Soundwalks, narrated by ?ve French actresses, will be free to download in their MP3 versions for Nuit Blanche'"&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/soundwalk.gif" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O segundo projeto que destaca a paisagem sonora e as narrativas é o canadense &lt;a href="http://www.batteryradio.com/Heresay/Heresay.html"&gt;Hear about Here&lt;/a&gt;, afiliado ao projeto &lt;a href="http://murmurtoronto.ca/"&gt;MurMur&lt;/a&gt;, já bastante resenhado nesse Carnet. O Hear about Here destaca a paisagem sonora e as histórias contadas por pessoas sobre a área central de Toronto e St. John. Ao se deslocar pela região, om passante pode-se ligar para um código afixado em um signal ([Here]Say) nas ruas e ouvir as histórias. Pode-se ouvir as histórias também pela Web, mas o melhor mesmo é a experiência locativa vivenciando ao mesmo tempo o lugar e a história contada sobre ele. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Vejam detalhes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;"[HERE]SAY WATER STREET- [murmur] St. John's a story cartography. St. John's is a landscape not only of streets and buildings, but of human experience -- this is what makes up the unique character of our city. The place is full of stories. Where most maps offer you a satellite view or a graphic layout of the street grid, ours is a story map. [HERE]SAY features personal stories set in specific locations in the Downtown. Take a walk on Water and look for the [HERE]SAY signs on the light poles. You'll see a phone number and a 3-digit code. Dial the number on your mobile phone, punch in the code, and hear a story about the spot where you're standing. If you can't get to Water Street, choose a location on the web map and listen online."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.andrelemos.info/hearhere.gif" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sintéticamente podemos dizer que em todos os projetos vemos uma interessante valorização da experiência locativa e concreta, por intermédio das novas tecnologias móveis, acoplada às novas possibilidades de produção de informação de baixo para cima. Não se trata daquela posição de consumo que estamos acostumados a adotar quando nos deslocamos pelo espaço urbano. Há aqui potência efetivamente pós-massiva que pode trazer um novo engajamento com o espaço de lugar (através do espaço de fluxo e do casamento dessas duas dimensões nos atuais "territórios informacionais"). Os usuários dos espaço públicos das grandes metrópoles podem agora lutar contra a anomia, produzir informação (por meio de fotos, vídeos, áudio e textos), compartilha-las e colaborar na contrução de novas histórias. Abre-se assim, quem sabe, as vias para a criação de "novos sentidos dos lugares". &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-8464802144842228962?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/8464802144842228962/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=8464802144842228962&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/8464802144842228962" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/8464802144842228962" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/09/here-and-there.html" title="Here and There" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584673.post-751710429684801066</id><published>2009-09-12T07:20:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-12T08:15:48.770-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="pervasive systems" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Informational Territories" /><title type="text">Informational Territory</title><content type="html">Informational Territory&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mais uma definição que corrobora minha proposição do conceito de território informacioanal (via &lt;a href="http://fourwalling.blogspot.com/"&gt;FOURWALLING&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Pervasive Information Systems&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_JD8g1f5RtEk/SnVsRuLv6fI/AAAAAAAAA1A/fL99nfChgA0/s200/Picture+5.png" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"... digital activity is a layer in interface with the city.

PCG is a general name for mobile games, such as hybrid reality games (HRGs), location-based mobile games (LBMGs) and urban games. Our goal here is to show how these games; along with new digital mobile technologies have the potential to produce ?spatialization?, i.e., to socially produce the space in which they are embedded . Based on the history of PCGs, the goal of this paper is to examine the forms of spatialization created by the use of location-based services and location-based technologies. The emphasis of this paper is theoretical; the data analysis is implemented to illustrate and support the theoretical background. From 2000 to 2008, I analyzed 73 PCGs to identify the forms of spatialization created. We will see that PCGs use informational territories to produce two temporary types of spatialization: 1) the use of physical space for the game (hunt and chase are the majority), and 2) the relationship between physical space and electronic spaces (location-based mobile games are the majority)."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-4300321560832242069?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://urbantick.blogspot.com/2009/09/gps-real-world-gaming.html" title="GPS Real World Gaming" /><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/4300321560832242069/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=4300321560832242069&amp;isPopup=true" title="1 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/4300321560832242069" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/4300321560832242069" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/09/gps-real-world-gaming.html" title="GPS Real World Gaming" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584673.post-6294807814129791421</id><published>2009-09-11T11:12:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-12T07:14:06.897-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Serres" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="knowledge" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Internet" /><title type="text">Serres</title><content type="html">Serres&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.actualitte.com/dossiers/350-Michell-Serres-guerre-institution-encadree.htm"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.actualitte.com/images/news/v-7167.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actualitté&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interessante &lt;a href="http://a.aaaarg.org/text/3807/knowledges-redemption"&gt;texto-entrevista&lt;/a&gt; com o filósofo frances Michel Serres, onde ele aposta no ciberespaço como sendo uma máquina mundial que pode ampliar o conhecimento. Bem diferente da perspectiva anacrônica e superada de um Dominique Wolton na última Intercom. Vários colegas diziam ser culpa do pensamento frances. Para me contrapor a essa generalização, citava alguns como Michel Maffesoli, Pierre Lévy, Bruno Latour e Michel Serres. Bom, a resposta de Serres me veio ontem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ainda no Canadá &lt;a href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2008/05/trem-wi-fi.html"&gt;postei&lt;/a&gt; sobre o livro "Les Messages à Distance" onde dizia: &lt;i&gt;"Michel Serres, em 'Les Messages à distance' (Editions Fides, Montreal, 1995) que estou lendo agora nesse trem (sim, deixo a conexão de lado e leio, vejo a paisagem, ouço música...), começa o livro mostrando as mudanças na dimensão humana do trabalho e os regimes históricos que ele associa primeiramente a Hercules, a força, o artesão, depois a Prometeu, o fogo, a máquina industrial, e agora a Hermes, a comunicação, a mensagem. Estamos agora, segundo Serres, no regime dos "Angelos", os mensageiros. Na passagem abaixo vemos bem o trabalho em meio a essa "mobilidade total". Ele afirma: 'Considérez, le matin, lorsque vous partez au travail, la foule qui s'écoule par les rues: combien peu de Prométhées, encore moins d'Hercules et d'Atlas, pour tant et tant d'Archanges, partant en voyage, porteurs de messages? Nous vivons désormais dans une immense messagerie, où nous travaillons, pour une majorité, comme des messagers: partons moins de masses, allumons moins de feux, mais transportons des messages, qui, parfois, commendent aux moteurs. Messagers, messages et messageries, voilà, en tout, le programme du travail. Aux plans de l'architecte, aux dessins industriels succèdent réseaux et puces." (p. 12).'"&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ontem &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/andrelemos"&gt;tuitei&lt;/a&gt; alguns trechos do "Knowledge's Redemption" que reproduzo aqui onde o filófoso aponta para algumas dimensões importantes da cibercultura: a necessidade de mudança no sistema escolar, dado ao surgimento de novas formas de produzir, consumir e trasmitir o conhecimento; a conexão (e aí incluindo a colaboração, a participação) como fator essencial para as atuais mudanças culturais; as tensões de fronteira entre lugares e identidades; e a expansão das possibilidades de ampliação do conhecimento sobre o mundo com a circulação de informação (e conhecimento) pelas redes planetárias. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Encontro aqui, em suas palavras, o que &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/blog-this.do?zx=789zlx5kn0uz" info="" artigos=""&gt;identifiquei em 2003&lt;/a&gt; como sendo os princípios balizadores da cibercultura: a liberação do pólo da emissão, a conexão generalizada participativa e colaborativa e a reconfiguração social (cultural, política, industrial).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trechos abaixo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"What is unprecedented here is that concentration of knowledge no longer obtains. Up to now, any form of education consisted, for every one of us, in the bridging of not one, but several stretches of distance, between one's place of birth, or point of departure, and that particular place where the elements of knowledge happened to be localised: the local libraries, universities, labs, natural science museums, etc. That was already the case with the great library in Alexandria or Plato's academy; and after that you had universities, schools, etc. One was always separated by geographical distance from the place of knowledge. But one was separated by social distance also: if you were not born to the right class, or were stuck with a linguistic barrier because your parents were not speaking the proper language; or there was a financial barrier. Even a 'mindgap' may be postulated, as when one would not dare to come near these places of knowledge. And yesterday's education system was a race of attrition on the bumpy road to the sources of knowledge. So what is new about the world we live in, is that the people do not have any longer to move in order to obtain knowledge: thanks to the communication networks knowledge comes to them. And despite lingering fears to the contrary, the opportunity for certain people or certain classes to monopolise these assets has radically decreased. Up to now, knowledge used to be concentrated and accumulated according to the rules of capitalism, even if this has never been analysed in such terms. In building the 'Tres Grande Bibliotheque'(2), France today enacts a return to a past world in the era of the Internet. Here we have a building that fences knowledge of precisely at the time when the networks enables one to tap into whatever document wherever it may be located on Earth..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I do not want to convey the impression that the Net is going to abolish every and all distances."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"But it will bring the possibility of knowledge to all... it will reach everybody, everywhere, and this is a truly great promise"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We will have to radically change the whole education system.

Deputados e senadores parecem mesmo achar que a internet é uma TV ou um rádio "melhorado" e quer aplicar ao ciberespaço as mesmas regras das mídias massivas. Não funcionou em 1997 e não funcionará no futuro próximo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tgMSn4wibhA/SHFqHs-SVGI/AAAAAAAAAOQ/Stls0Yexjiw/s320/blogs-x-mainstream-media.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tgMSn4wibhA/SHFqHs-SVGI/AAAAAAAAAOQ/Stls0Yexjiw/s320/blogs-x-mainstream-media.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Veja o&lt;a href="http://blogdoprotasio.blogspot.com/2008/07/resoluo-tse-2271808-medo-da-blogosfera.html"&gt; Blog do Protásio&lt;/a&gt; também sobre o assunto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A guerra não acabou, mas o julgamento do Ministro Carlos Ayres Britto, do Supremo Tribunal Federal, sobre o projeto de lei abriu uma porta legal para considerar e reconhecer o carater livre da web. O carater massivo dos meios de comunicação de massa, controlados por empresas com interesses bem definidos é regulado em períodos eleitorais para garantir um certo equilíbrio entre os candidatos e evitar que gigantes da mídia façam, explicita e insistentemente, a vitória de um candidato. Mesmo assim não garante. Mas não se pode negar este que é (ainda) o poder das funções massivas: dar tiro de canhão em moscas e forjar opiniões podendo destruir ou fazer um candidato.  Mas a web é diferente, e o internauta um outro personagem, oposto ao receptor massivo (ideais tipo, aqui, claro). Impedir que blogs e outros sites possam criticar políticos, ou dar opiniões sobre esse ou aquele candidato ou seu programa, é um absurdo que beira a censura. A web não é o rádio e a TV. Ela se aproximando mais da conversação do que da informação massiva e massificada dos mass media. Nossos representandes precisam entender isso.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Vejam trechos do blog do Fernando Rodrigues (leiam na íntegra para ver os posts mais antigos sobre o assunto):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; "&gt;" O ministro Carlos Ayres Britto, do Supremo Tribunal Federal, enviou hoje para publicação o texto final do julgamento que considerou inconstitucional a lei de imprensa no último dia 30.abr.2009. Foi um marco na história do STF. Pois há outra boa notícia: o texto do acórdão (resultado do julgamento) finalizado hoje deixa claríssimo o caráter livre da internet. Em resumo, se o Congresso insistir em votar uma lei eleitoral equiparando a web ao rádio e à TV (post abaixo), há grande risco de essa legislação ser rapidamente considerada inconstitucional. Eis um trecho da ementa (resumo) do resultado do julgamento redigido por Ayres Britto:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'...Silenciando a Constituição quanto ao regime jurídico da internet, não há como se lhe recusar a qualificação de território virtual livremente veiculador de ideias, debate, notícia e tudo o mais que se contenha no conceito essencial da plenitude de informação jornalística no nosso país'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ou seja, quando deputados e senadores pretendem restringir o conteúdo da web durante períodos eleitorais (post abaixo) estão claramente ferindo o caráter livre da web, segundo decisão do Supremo Tribunal Federal. Como o projeto de lei ainda será votado na semana que vem no Senado, há tempo para os congressistas refletirem a respeito. Basicamente, basta que retirem do projeto a equiparação da web ao rádio e à TV (o artigo 57-D descrito no post abaixo). "&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;O relator do projeto é o Senador Azeredo, o mesmo que quer criar um regime de vigilância pesado sobre a Internet. Ao falar sobre o  assunto, o Senador diz que prentende também censurar e controlar o YouTube. Vejam matéria do &lt;a href="http://noticias.uol.com.br/politica/2009/09/02/ult5773u2345.jhtm"&gt;UOL Notícias&lt;/a&gt;, de Piero Locatelli (trechos abaixo):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;"O relator da reforma eleitoral, senador Eduardo Azeredo (PSDB-MG), decidiu recuar parcialmente da proposta de proibir blogs e sites na internet de expressarem opinião sobre um candidato. Azeredo informou que pretende apresentar uma emenda em plenário. 'Eu vou fazer uma emenda de plenário para esclarecer as questões relacionadas à internet, que já há haviam sido aprovadas pela Câmara.' O senador, no entanto, disse que deve manter diversas restrições no projeto. 'O YouTube vai seguir as regras de TV', disse Azeredo sobre o site de compartilhamento de vídeos. Ou seja, usuários do YouTube não poderão satirizar um candidato durante o período eleitoral -a partir do dia 1º de julho. Preferências por políticos também não poderão ser mencionadas pelos internautas."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Definitivamente há uma crise de mentalidades, uma mudança na paisagem comunicacional que parece ainda não ter tocado os nossos representantes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-6526215173728386104?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://uolpolitica.blog.uol.com.br/arch2009-08-30_2009-09-05.html#2009_09-02_19_26_32-9961110-0" title="Lei de Imprensa e Eleições" /><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/6526215173728386104/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=6526215173728386104&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/6526215173728386104" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/6526215173728386104" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/09/lei-de-imprensa-e-eleicoes.html" title="Lei de Imprensa e Eleições" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tgMSn4wibhA/SHFqHs-SVGI/AAAAAAAAAOQ/Stls0Yexjiw/s72-c/blogs-x-mainstream-media.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584673.post-2040816563888496445</id><published>2009-08-30T16:41:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-30T16:44:33.225-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="enquete" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="continuum" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="itaú cultural" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="desconexão" /><title type="text">Desconectar</title><content type="html">Desconectar&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/almlemos/3866668765/"&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2519/3866668765_15c69be2d9.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enquete com depoimentos sobre o que fazemos para desconectar. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Na Continuum do &lt;a href="http://www.itaucultural.org.br/index.cfm?cd_pagina=2720&amp;amp;cd_materia=1091"&gt;Itaú Cultural&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Abaixo reproduzo o meu:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Minha estratégia principal para desconectar é ler romances. Acho que temos de achar um equilíbrio entre o que chamo, metaforicamente, de ´clique´ e ´contemplação´. A internet e os demais dispositivos eletrônicos nos permitem interagir, produzir e compartilhar de forma inédita. Podemos, pela primeira vez, produzir, consumir e distribuir informação sob os mais diversos formatos (texto, áudio, foto, vídeo) e a todo o planeta, quase de maneira imediata. As novas tecnologias informacionais em rede nos possibilitam emitir, distribuir e produzir colaborativamente. Sempre que podemos emitir livremente e cooperar com outros, podemos reconfigurar a cultura, a sociedade, a política. Temos de aproveitar essa oportunidade. É isso que chamo aqui de ´clique´. Mas devemos também saber o momento de desligar, de viver a duração - e não os instantes fragmentados e numéricos do tempo cronológico -, de consumir menos, do alimento à informação. Devemos assim buscar momentos de contemplação. E não há nada aqui, necessariamente, de religioso ou místico. Trata-se apenas de fechar os olhos para ler um livro, ouvir uma história, seja ela contada por um filme ou por uma música, deixar que outros nos levem pelas suas narrativas. Devemos aproveitar as possibilidades fantásticas do ´clique´ que a cibercultura nos propõe, mas devemos também saber o momento de ´contemplar´. Para mim, há dois momentos: ler e brincar com os meus filhos."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2584673-2040816563888496445?l=www.andrelemos.info'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="related" href="http://www.itaucultural.org.br/index.cfm?cd_pagina=2720&amp;cd_materia=1091" title="Desconectar" /><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/2040816563888496445/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2584673&amp;postID=2040816563888496445&amp;isPopup=true" title="0 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/2040816563888496445" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2584673/posts/default/2040816563888496445" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.andrelemos.info/2009/08/desconectar.html" title="Desconectar" /><author><name>Andre Lemos</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07521127859525303323</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" name="OpenSocialUserId" value="10082245173008701728" /></author><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></entry></feed>
