  • The Comet Newsletter January 2020
    1 The Comet Newsletter January 2020 A Family Divide It was Christmas Eve, and my extended family had just sat down for dinner. We began to eat, smiling and joking all around. You could almost say it was like the early 2000’s -- except, well, I hadn’t been born yet. There was one stark contrast, though. As I looked around, each of my relatives had a device less than one foot away from them, at hand’s reach. My little cousin had put his iPad next to his plate, grubby fingerprints smeared all over. My aunt’s Samsung was daintily resting on her water cup. Even my dad -- who claims to be a technology abstainer -- had slipped his phone into his jeans pocket, one tap away from seeing the weather forecast, or the latest New York Times article, or a photo from our last trip. At first, the technology that surrounded our dinner didn’t seem to be a distraction. But one by one, as the meal progressed, family members began to succumb to the urge to peek at their devices, perhaps discreetly swipe a few times under the tablecloth. My cousins, for one, went all out, hefting their tablets sturdily onto their half-full plates and going to town with games. Conversation across the table went on, but it became more absent-minded and preoccupied. Believe it or not, this is a real scenario across the US that happens in more than just our household. When each member of the family has a device, it’s easy to forget the simple pleasure of spending quality time with one another.

  • Global Tree Planting with Purpose and Power
    Global Tree Planting with Purpose and Power Partnership Study: Social media influencers inspire large-scale action among a new generation of tree planters What started as a callout on the social media platform Reddit quickly turned into an environmental force, driven by a new audience of tree planters. #TeamTrees — a collective effort with YouTube creators to inspire support for tree planting around the globe — took social media by storm in the fall of 2019. The campaign was one of the fastest-growing environmental fundraising initiatives to date and the largest crowdfunding effort in YouTube’s history. A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY #TeamTrees began with YouTube influencers MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson, widely followed for his creative philanthropy) and Mark Rober (former NASA scientist) accepting a challenge to plant 20 million trees in honor of MrBeast’s 20 millionth subscriber. They chose to collaborate with the Arbor Day Foundation in managing the campaign to leverage three of its key strengths: ➊ Unique Position: The Foundation is uniquely equipped to handle a tree planting project of this scale and scope. ➋ Integrity: A commitment to planting the right tree in the right place for the right reasons. ➌ Credibility: A proven track record of working with a network of partners to deliver results. The goal was to raise $20 million by January 1, 2020. Each dollar raised would plant a tree, and trees would be planted on every continent except Antarctica. Hundreds of other content creators on YouTube and other social platforms were recruited to help lead the charge, and everyone involved developed unique content to drive their viewers to donate on TeamTrees.org in support of tree planting.

Students come to physics with a variety of different backgrounds and types of preparation. Some topics that we will be covering that it would be useful for students to have some exposure to in advance of the course would be: • The METRIC System and SI units • Measurement in science – how and what we measure • Scientific discovery – any of it! How things get discovered and by who? Enrichment Resources: Online: • KHAN academy – there are lots of great resources at all levels on Khan Academy. • YouTube channels worthy of subscription: The following YouTube channels are by creators who make lively (and, ahem, correct) science videos that may get students excited about science, help them ask questions, and see how to investigate mysteries. § SciShow § Veritasium § PhysicsGirl § Fysicshow § Mark Rober § The Brain Scoop § Practical Engineering § Real Engineering § Steve Mould § VSauce Books: • Radioactive (Lauren Redniss) Beautiful, moving biography of Marie and Pierre Curie in artsy-comic-book form. • Coming of Age in the Milky Way (Ferriss) Engaging, elegant historical account of how humans came to understand our place in the cosmos. • Thing Explainer (Munroe) An illustrated attempt to explain complicated things using only the 1,000 most common words in the English language.

    Praise for The YouTube Formula “Only one or two other people in the entire world understand YouTube on the level that Derral does. I have one of the top three most-watched channels on YouTube, and I still talk about YouTube data and strategy with Derral because nobody is on the same wavelength as he is. Whether you have 5 subscribers or 5 million, you can learn how to be successful on YouTube by reading Derral’s book.” —Jimmy Donaldson, MrBeast “Study it . understand it . dream it . Derral Eves just wrote the bible to You- Tube success.” —Jordi van den Bussche, Kwebbelkop Derral has the rare experience of being successful on YouTube as a creator, a marketer, an advertiser, and an entrepreneur. This book teaches you how to understand You- Tube from the big picture all the way down to the important details. —Chad Wild Clay and Vy Qwaint, Cocreators of Spy Ninjas “When you talk about the ‘brains behind the throne’ among top YouTube stars, you’re talking about Derral Eves. His unique understanding of the inner workings of YouTube, coupled with an insatiable appetite to find out why certain videos perform and others languish has placed him at the forefront of online video experts. Derral understands not only WHAT you need to do to build a bigger audience, but WHY you need to do it. Whether you’re looking to build a big business on YouTube or just build a community of passionate fans, this book packs more inside than you’d get from months of expensive consulting and painstaking trial and error.

Nel nostro Paese tanto quanto lo era stato all’estero. Il tempo ha confermato esponenzialmente quella ipotesi, visto che nel pa- norama si sono aggiunti Amazon Prime Video e Disney+, per non parlare di RaiPlay, Mediaset Infinity e TimVision. Così come il tempo potrebbe darci ragione quando sosteniamo che è arrivato il momento per il mercato dei contenuti premium di smarcarsi dalla “dittatura Ott”, di cominciare a pensare fuori dagli schemi. E non per prenderne le distanze in modo critico, ma per affermare e confermare che occorre liberarsi dell’idea delle piattaforme come metro e misura editoriale per il futuro. Ci sono produttori e autori italiani che si affannano a pensare per le piattaforme contenuti che ne evochino, seppur alla lontana, i successi più recenti.
