The AGA Song Book up to Date
3rd Edition Songs, Poems, Stories and More! Edited by Bob Felice Published by The American Go Association P.O. Box 397, Old Chelsea Station New York, N.Y., 10113-0397 Copyright 1998, 2002, 2006 in the U.S.A. by the American Go Association, except where noted. Cover illustration by Jim Rodgers. No part of this book may be used or reproduced in any form or by any means, or stored in a database or retrieval system, without prior written permission of the copyright holder, except for brief quotations used as part of a critical review. Introductions Introduction to the 1st Edition When I attended my first Go Congress three years ago I was astounded by the sheer number of silly Go songs everyone knew. At the next Congress, I wondered if all these musical treasures had ever been printed. Some research revealed that the late Bob High had put together three collections of Go songs, but the last of these appeared in 1990. Very few people had these song books, and some, like me, weren’t even aware that they existed. While new songs had been printed in the American Go Journal, there was clearly a need for a new collection of Go songs. Last year I decided to do whatever I could to bring the AGA Song Book up to date. I wanted to collect as many of the old songs as I could find, as well as the new songs that had been written since Bob High’s last song book. You are holding in your hands the book I was looking for two years ago. -

Abstract The main aim of the text is to show how a game of Go (Weiqi, baduk, Igo) can serve as a model representation of the ontological-metaphysical aspect of the actor–network theory (ANT). An additional objective is to demonstrate in return that this ontological-meta- physical aspect of ANT represented on Go/Weiqi game model is able to highlight the key aspect of this theory—onto-methodological praxis. -

The plans from the editorial team We present you some commented games. Also we would like to introduce to you some of the players par- ticipating in the main tournament. Every Go Congress is a meeting of the veterans, who already took part in many Congresses, with players who show up for the first time. Also there are players present, from some countries, which did not take part before. Yet another category of players present here are those who took part in an EGC before, but came back to us only after a long break. We will re-introduce some of them to you. In every issue of the bulletin we will also print interviews with some of the professionals present. Every time we ask them to show us a set of life and death problems. The first problem will be easy, so everybody has a chance to solve. The second one is meant for the level of 1-digit kyu and the third will be for dan level players. -
The Language of a Computer-Mediated Communication in Japan: Mobile-Phone E-Mail

The result shows that the Keitai-mail analyzed consists on average of approximately 40 moji (symbols) including 3 emoticons per message, showing that composition is short but not overly abrupt – generally Keitai-mail does not finish in the middle of a sentence. Non-standard textual elements, language plays (LP) such as emoticons, long vowel symbols, irregular use of small moji, and non-standard use of each type of script (e.g., use of Katakana instead of Kanji) are found to be governed by the conventions of Standard Japanese and are not totally random occurrences. Keywords: Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) E-mail, Japanese, orthography 1. Introduction This study investigates the characteristics of language appeared in Japanese mobile phone e-mail (Keitai-mail), as a CMC widely practiced, in order to deepen our understanding how the media influences languages uses in natural or daily communication. -

Learning to Play the Game of Go
Learning to Play the Game of Go James Foulds October 17, 2006 Abstract The problem of creating a successful artificial intelligence game playing program for the game of Go represents an important milestone in the history of computer science, and provides an interesting domain for the development of both new and existing problem-solving methods. In particular, the problem of Go can be used as a benchmark for machine learning techniques. Most commercial Go playing programs use rule-based expert systems, re- lying heavily on manually entered domain knowledge. Due to the complexity of strategy possible in the game, these programs can only play at an amateur level of skill. A more recent approach is to apply machine learning to the prob- lem. Machine learning-based Go playing systems are currently weaker than the rule-based programs, but this is still an active area of research. This project compares the performance of an extensive set of supervised machine learning algorithms in the context of learning from a set of features generated from the common fate graph – a graph representation of a Go playing board. The method is applied to a collection of life-and-death problems and to 9 × 9 games, using a variety of learning algorithms. A comparative study is performed to determine the effectiveness of each learning algorithm in this context.

Contributions of JASAG and Japanese Gaming—A Westerner's Perspective

In addition to forms of play that we can find in favorite Japanese poets from Kyoto wrote: all human beings and societies the Japanese culture is extremely rich and several unique forms of play emerged as interconnected “My figure / back in the hometown / I played in and knew elements in and of Japanese culture. For example “Lotus Moon” well / through springs and autumns / ah, such wistful mem- Rengetsu was also well known for perfection at dance, some of ories.”( Haruaki ni / asobi nare ni shi / furusato no / wa ga the martial arts, and Japanese tea ceremony. Dance̶including omokage no / natsukashiki kana. はるあきに あそびな of course also the famous “Kabuki”(歌舞伎) form of dance and れにし 古里に わがおもかげの なつかしき哉) theatre̶ and also the Japanese tea ceremony use forms of play as well (Kikkawa, 2016). When I had the great honor to give a short opening message at Huizinga also reflected on the meaning of play and selected as the 2015 ISAGA and JASAG conference in Kyoto I also used opposite term earnest. He argued, however, that these two terms this “waka”(和歌) (type of “Japanese poem”) as introduction. I are not of equal value. Earnest is equivalent with not playing, used the English translation and I do not know how correct it is. but play is not defined by being not earnest (Huizinga 1955).
