Knowledge is Power!

Professional and other serious authors may wish to write for the Open Encyclopedia in various ways.

One way may be within the frame-work of Knol Journals (a name coined here), in which alphabetically-listed encyclopedia entries are collated into broad themes that can then be viewed as a coherent bodies of information within the overall encyclopedia.

Technically, a model for this idea is provided by virtual photo albums, in which photos related to a particular theme are collated under one title, from a much larger collection of photos. We do not know, but Google might already have recognised this possibility (an obvious use of existing technology?) in its design work for the Open Encyclopedia.

This idea reverse the conventional manner in which journals come into existence, as anyone who wishes to become a journal editor or contributor can suggest or lead the creation of new journal based on existing content, rather than depending on the soliciting of new content from potential authors.

Once the idea for a Knol Journal is established, then new writers may be more keen to write for an identifiable community of writers and readers, with all the help that good editors can offer (ideally) to encourage and support writing projects.

Meanwhile, writers hoping to contribute to the planned Open Encyclopedia (and other publishers) can seek volunteer, experienced or professional editors and translators at The Research Cooperative (www.researchco-op.co.nz), a not-for-profit collection of forums designed to facilitate communication between research writers and the people who can provide language services.

Authors and editors who would like to contribute to the Open Encyclopedia can use the forum here for an open discussion of the Google platform, the possible creation of Knol Journals, and the general utility of the Knol platform for writers.

Can we write essay regarding the education in the journal
Dear Pollachi,

Your suggestion is interestiing, but just now I am tied up with other matters (research), but I would like to send you a book I have edited entitled:

Research Writing in Japan: personal, practical and cultural perspectives (National Museum of Ethnology, Osaka). This is distributed free by our museum for educational purposes and I can send you a copy.

This might be relevant to your work at the District Institute of Education and Training, or - at least - it might be a good starting point for further discussion between us.

If you like, please send me your postal address to my email: researchcooperative att gmail dott com

(att = @, dott = .)

Thanks, Peter

Artistic Vision

Posted by Stacy Esch on November 6, 2023 at 8:15pm 10 Comments

Is an artist's "vision" primarily a product of experience or imagination? I don't want to pursue the simple answer that it's both. Is it primarily one or the other, of if it's just plain old both, how do they interact to create an imaginary world?

Is it true that some people have more artistic vision than others, or is this kind of seeing equally available to all?

Trying to find treatment.

In the beginning of August 2008 I was doing great. I went to the gym 3 times a week for 3 hours each time. I had lost weight and had a nice tone coming. I was nicely tanned with some help of the tanning beds. I rode my motorcycle back and forth to work and to the gym. In the middle of August a leg press came down on top of my head while i was trying to get it reset to the proper location so I would be able to use the equipment. I got very dizzy and had to go home, that was the end of my…
