Info: Mensch-Maschine-Kommunikation Info: Mensch-Maschine-Kommunikation Eine Veranstaltung "Mensch-Maschine-Kommunikation" wird sich mit dem Menschen, der Technik und der Kommunikation beschäftigen. Diese Gebiete können nicht erschöpfend in 2 SWS behandelt werden. Auch braucht ein praktisches Beschäftigen im Praktikum Zeit. Auf Wunsch von Studierenden ist einiges ausgewählt und aufgeschrieben worden ( "... denn, was man schwarz auf weiß besitzt, kann man getrost nach Hause tragen." und "das sollt Ihr mir nicht zweimal sagen! Ich denke mir, wie viel es nützt; Grau, teurer Freund, ist alle Theorie, und grün des Lebens goldner Baum") ● Hier geht's zu Goethe, Faust, "Der Tragödie 1. Teil", Szene im Studierzimmer. Ein Manuskript kann zum eigenen Nachdenken, Interpretieren (Hermeneutik) und Untersuchen anregen. Wegen der interdisziplinären Vielfalt ist keine wissenschaftliche Ausgewogenheit möglich. Das Geschriebene kann im kritischen, vernünftigen Interpretieren zu codiertem Wissen, zu Herausgelesenen, zu Erfahrenem werden (s. Mitterstraß) und kann dann beitragen zu einer Bildung, wie es Vaclav Havel ausdrückt und bedingt Sinn vermitteln, wie ihn Rainer Maria Rilke meint: Vaclav Havel: Bildung ist die Fähigkeit, die verborgenen Zusammenhänge zwischen Phänomenen wahrzunehmen.

Die "ewige Philosophie" (G. W. Leibniz) entfaltet sich aus Überliefertem; für K. Jaspers ist es die Einheit und Kontinuität des faktisch lebendigen Philosophierens; für N. Hartmann das rein sachhingegebene Problemdenken; die scholastische Philosophie berücksichtigt die theologische Tradition; Schiller sprach von der Religion hinter den Religionen. Heutige Philosophen stützen sich meist mehr auf das verfügbare Wissen als auf ein endgültiges Dogma. Vom 6.Jh. v.Chr. bis zum 16.Jh. bestand die Philosophie des Abendlandes aus 2 Hauptrichtungen: ● der Erkenntnis der Natur und ● der menschlichen Lebensführung Die Philosophie hat keine exakten Grenzen. Ab dem 17.Jh. wurde die moralische Behandlung der menschlichen Lebensführung der Religion überlassen. Die Erkenntnis der Natur wurden von den Wissenschaften behandelt. Philosophen beschäftigen sich mit grundlegenden Fragen (wie der Metaphysik): Was ist der Mensch? Anthropologie Anthropologie ist die Lehre von den Eigenschaften und Verhaltensweisen des Menschen. Jeder Mensch fragt sich ( mehr oder minder oberflächlich ) in seinem Leben: Wer bin ich eigentlich? Schnelle Antworten ( wie z.B. "mein Körper", "mein Denken und Fühlen", "mein Wesen", "mein Ich", usw. ) sind nicht vollständig und können in tiefere Schichten des Bewusstseins führen. "Ich bin mein ..." deutet auf etwas, das zu "mir" gehört und das anzeigt, dass dies nicht mein Innerstes und Wesenhaftes ist. Existiere ich auch ohne vollständigen Körper, Denken, Ich, usw.? Wer bin ich dann? In der modernen Philosophie ( z.B. Popper ) werden ( wegen der unvollkommenen Bestimmung der Entität ) sog. "Was ist ..."-Fragen ( Quidditas ) vermieden. Was soll ich tun? Ethik Bereits für Heraklid, Fragmente B40 und 129, war Gelehrtheit nicht ausreichend, um weise zu sein; Weisheit hat einen praktischen Wert, Philosophie ist eine integrale Metamorphose der Lebensweise, die zu Wohl und Glück führen soll. Wahrheit umfasst das Verstehen der Welt. Sokrates, Platon, Aristoteles erweitern im 4. und 5. Jh.v.Chr. den Begriff der Weisheit um den Theorie-Begriff. Wissen und Weisheit sind nun nicht mehr eins. Wissen soll zu Weisheit führen. Dies "endet" im 17.Jh und mit Spinozas. Zur Ethik gehören: Sitte, Brauch, Gewohnheit, Moral, Gesinnung, ethisch-sittlichen Normen des Handelns, Wertethik, Erfolgsethik, Solidarität, den eigenen oder den allgemeinen Nutzen, Eudämonismus, Hedonismus, Glückseligkeit Was kann ich wissen? Metaphysik Metaphysik ist das, "was hinter der Natur steht". Eine reine Objektivierung geht von einem implizit ( auf höherer kognitiven Ebene ) vorhandenen Subjekt ( Beobachter ) aus. Wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisgewinnung begrenzt den Untersuchungsraum, unterteilt in Komponenten, behandelt diese, untersucht Zusammenhänge, beschreibt, modelliert, prüft Vorhersagen, verbessert. Wissenschaft kann Sachverhalte mit hohem Vertrauengrad demonstrieren. Was darf ich hoffen? Religion Religiosität ist ein Phänomen, das auf den letzten Sinn des Menschen ausgerichtet ist. Spirituelle Fachleute ( Brahmanen, Priester, Gurus, usw. ) deuten und erklären das Sein durch Interpretation von Offenbarungen ( Heilversprechungen, Leben nach demTod, Vernichtung des Leiden, Heilung der Seele, ewiges Heil, usw. ), möchten führen und können zu "Gott-nahen/fernen Gruppen-Klassifizierungen" führen ( z.B. Kastenwesen, Hinduismus, can. ). Was können Menschen ( in sich selbst ) erfahren/wissen ( z.B. über sich selbst, den eigenen Tod, über das Sein, über das Leben, über das Bewusstsein, die Wahrheit, über das Organisationsprinzip der Psyche, usw. )? Was verbindet/unterscheidet den Menschen von anderen Lebewesen? Wird die Formenmannigfaltigkeit des Lebendigen einmal durch wenige, klare Prinzipien erklärbar sein? Was am Menschen weist über das menschliche Vernunftwesen hinaus? Wie weit wird die Erkenntnistheorie die kognitiven, kulturellen und moralischen Leistungen des Menschen erklären können (evolutionstheoretisch, kosmologisch, geochronologisch, biologisch, physiologisch, ethologisch, epistemologisch, ökologisch, soziobiologisch, mental, neurobiologisch, systemologisch)? Das Wort "Gnosis" (spätantike religiöse dualistische Erlösungsbewegungen) kommt aus dem Griechischen und bedeutet "Wissen", "Erkenntnis" (die Grenze der Erfahrung überschreitend, verborgen, geheim, übersinnlich, übernatürlich, transzendent). Nach Theodotos (Gnostiker), der eine Anleitung zum richtigen Verständnis solchen Wissens hinterlassen hat, sind die wichtigsten Leitmotive in den folgenden Was-Wo-Wohin-Wie-Fragen enthalten: ● Was waren wir einst und was sind wir geworden? ● Wo waren wir ursprünglich und wohin sind wir geworfen? ● Wohin eilen wir und woraus werden wir erlöst? ● Wie werden wir geboren und wie werden wir wiedergeboren? Theresia von Avila ( 1515-1582 ) hat sich mit dem Weg nach Innen befasst: Viel Elend und Verwirrung kommen daher, dass wir durch eigene Schuld uns selbst nicht verstehen und nicht wissen, wer wir sind. Ist es nicht eine schreckliche Unwissenheit, wenn wir keine Antwort wissen auf die Fragen: wer wir sind, wer unsere Eltern sind und aus welchem Lande wir kommen? Der Austausch, die Kombination und Verwertung von Informationen aus bibliografischen Datenbanken ( ab 1970, Internet ab 1990 ) führten zur Informationsethik, zur Netzethik, Cyberethik, Computerethik, Medienethik. Die Informationsethik behandelt die realen Möglichkeiten

  • IT Legacy Article Compendium
    An IT Legacy Booklet March 2016 IT Legacy Article Compendium 1 INTRODUCTION – LOWELL A. BENSON, EDITOR Write a Book? How about an autobiography? Shortly after the Information Technology (IT) Legacy Committee was formed, Dick Lundgren began to write Legacy articles for the VIP Club newsletter. During the committee’s decade of volunteering, several other committee members have also written Legacy associated newsletter items. This booklet1 is a collection of those VIP Club newsletter articles. The first several articles are the history of the Legacy Committee as we felt our way through the quagmire of gathering documents and hardware artifacts and then cataloging them. So, to some degree, this is both a book and the IT Legacy Committee’s autobiography. This book complements our December 2015 ‘Article for the Month’. That too was a booklet: Measuring Success = Volunteer Hours; recapping a decade with summaries of over 100 on-line IT Legacy articles. I dedicate this document to James 'Rapp' Rapinac who passed away 23 January 2016. Rapp was a steadfast supporter of our legacy initiatives and a good friend.

Science and the Instrument-maker: Michelson, Sperry, and the Speed of Light. Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology, number 37, 18 pages, 9 figures, 2 tables, 1976.-This essay focuses on the cooperative efforts between A. A. Michelson, physicist, and Elmer Ambrose Sperry, inventor, to produce the instr.umentation for the determination of the speed of light. At the conclusion of experiments made in 1926, Michelson assigned the Sperry in­ struments the highest marks for accuracy. The value of the speed of light accepted by many today (299,792.5 km/sec) varies only 2.5 km/sec from that obtained using the Sperry octagonal steel mirror. The main problems of producing the instrumentation, human error in the communication of ideas to effect that in­ strumentation, a brief description of the experiments to determine the speed of light, and the analysis and evaluation of the results are discussed.

    July 2019 Newsletter GEARS Founded August 13, 1939 News Field day was a success. This year GARS joined us out at the Masonic Lodge. The weather was very comfortable for a change. While band conditions were difficult at first, they improved by the morning. We haven’t totaled the points yet, however it seems that we did better than last year. We also got coverage from Action News and the Chico Enterprise Record. See photos below. My house was struck by lighting on May 30th, hitting my antenna and traveling down the feed line, through the radios and discharged into the house wiring. Fortunately the fire department put out the fire quickly and minimized damage. I’m off the air until repairs are completed to the house. See photo below. The GEARS/GARS new repeater project is proceeding along. The equipment has been ordered. We are waiting for approval from the US Forest Service before we can begin installation. At our next GEARS meeting Kevin Fullerton WB7SKS will be talking about emergency operations for the Camp Fire. He has some very interesting experiences to tell us about, and suggestions for preparing for emergencies. The Steak Bake is Sep.7th at Wildwood picnic area in Chico at 3:30pm - 7pm.
