    International Journal of Technoethics, 2(2), 45-64, April-June 2011 45 Internet History Raphael Cohen-Almagor, University of Hull, UK ABSTRACT This paper outlines and analyzes milestones in the history of the Internet. As technology advances, it presents new societal and ethical challenges. The early Internet was devised and implemented in American research units, universities, and telecommunication companies that had vision and interest in cutting-edge research. The Internet then entered into the commercial phase (1984-1989). It was facilitated by the upgrading of back- bone links, the writing of new software programs, and the growing number of interconnected international networks. The author examines the massive expansion of the Internet into a global network during the 1990s when business and personal computers with different operating systems joined the universal network. The instant and growing success of social networking-sites that enable Netusers to share information, photos, private journals, hobbies, and personal as well as commercial interests with networks of mutual friends and colleagues is discussed.

  • Noise Control and Articulated Soundscapes
    Noise Control and Articulated Soundscapes By Dan St. Clair Faculty Advisor: Ron Kuivila A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Wesleyan University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Middletown, Connecticut May 2010 Noise Control and Articulated Soundscapes Table of Contents: Introduction 2 1 - Diagnostic Beginnings 12 2 - Telephonic Architecture 30 3 - Telephonic Landscapes 54 4 - Telephonic Ecologies 78 5 – Re-articulating Soundscape 95 Appendix 115 Thanks to my teachers, colleagues, and family. Thanks especially to my advisor, Ron Kuivila for tirelessly pushing me to diabolical ends, to my Mom, Beverly St. Clair for her grammatical advice, and most of all to Louisa and Gena, for making each day exciting, beautiful, and full of love. 1 Introduction What will humanity’s urban future sound like? Amidst the tremendous efforts in recent years to re-design and re-imagine the modern city in a future world without oil, very little attention has been paid to sound and acoustics. In sampling the proceedings of a number of recent conferences of architects, designers, and urban planners, I find that sound is rarely, if ever, mentioned.1 The LEED Standard for Neighborhood Development has sections concerning the visual qualities of a neighborhood, but nothing on acoustics and sound.2 It is not that sound is an unimportant part of urban experience: noise consistently ranks as one of the top three quality-of-life complaints of residents living in cities around the world 3. Part of the reason for this disconnect is certainly the visual orientation of modern architectural practice – think of Le Corbusier’s statement “I am only eyes.”4 Compared with other sensory issues in the modern city, such as stench, noise has avoided comprehensive control.5 My thesis proceeds from the belief that there is tremendous richness in everyday sonic experiences, that these experiences motivate larger patterns of behavior, and that a silent re-imagining of the future is an incomplete one.

  • Preserving Ether: the Birthplace of the Internet and the Interpretation of Information Age Technology
    PRESERVING ETHER: THE BIRTHPLACE OF THE INTERNET AND THE INTERPRETATION OF INFORMATION AGE TECHNOLOGY by MELISSA LEIGH IVEY (Under the Direction of Mark E. Reinberger) ABSTRACT There are few technological innovations that have impacted the daily lives of Americans as profoundly as the Internet. The origins of the Internet lay in the ARPANET, an experimental computer network developed in the late 1960s by Bolt, Beranek and Newman, a company headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts. This thesis explores the issues surrounding the preservation and interpretation of Information Age sites and resources in general, and offers specific recommendations for the Bolt, Beranek and Newman site. The author argues that due to the ethereal nature of information technologies, methods commonly used to preserve and interpret technological history sites and resources will require modification to be successfully applied to those of the Information Age. Recommendations are based on the analysis of existing technological history sites, unique characteristics of Information Age sites and resources, and interpretive principles and programs.
