Humberto Maturana and Vittorio F. Guidano, from Behaviorism and Cognitivism to Post-Rationalism

Discovering Humberto Maturana

Così scrive Kua Nishi, che interviene con me al Caffe Freud su Second Life:

As I see it Maturana is the best author for the epistemological base of Guidano’s post-rationalist psychotherapy. I think of them like mine 2 major “gurus” lol.

Caffe' Freud Bulletin

Caffe’ Freud - Group Bulletins

Caffe Freud Main Group
Posted by lapsus on 9/19/2007 12:55:32 PM

The ‘Caffe Freud’ is a group born in the August 2007, and its SL location is at Blackmount 40, 240.

It’s an open group, anyone can join the group, for all people interested, at any title, on Psychology, Psychotherapy, Mental Health and similar topics.

It has many seats:

the main one is at Blackmount 40, 240, the other ones are in Vienna (SL), Salzburg, and New York City Block.

Our meetings are usually at Blackmount, but occasionally we can move to other lands, as in the last and in the next one Sunday Meeting, 8 am PDT, that were and will be at Black Art, 249, 115, 91, the Healthcare Pavillons US, thanks to the hospitality of any1 Gynoid.

To this group, another one will be soon added: the ‘Balint SL’group, open to anyone is interested on online psychotherapy.

This group will meet at the date and hours that will be decided by its members, with me, after a dialog with all of them. Members are invited not to send any notice or voting proposals before this shared decision, and will focus on what happens to any member that is ‘active’ online as a psychologist, a psychoanalist, a medical doctor, a helper, on the web, and expecially on SL.

While the official language of the main group, Caffe Freud, is the English one, in the ‘Balint SL’ group it will be possible to speak other languages, like Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian when and if members agree, or in sub.groups.

This forum will function as our Bulletin Board for both the groups

Hospitality Club and Servas World

Settembre 17th, 2007

In cosa consiste l’ “Hospitality Club”?

Il nostro obiettivo è di far incontrare persone di diverse culture e nazionalità. I membri di tutto il mondo del “Hospitality Club“ si aiutano vicendevolmente durante i loro viaggi, offrendo un tetto per la notte o una visita della città. Iscriversi al club è gratuito e chiunque è il benvenuto. I membri del club avranno la possibilità di vedere online i profili degli altri membri del club, dopo essersi registrati ed essere stati accettati come membri del Hospitality Club.

Il club è formato da volontari che credono in una grande idea: rendere questo mondo più bello facendo in modo che chi viaggia possa venire in contatto con gli abitanti del luogo e facendo in modo che gli abitanti del luogo abbiano l’opportunità di incontrare persone di un’altra cultura. Questa forma di scambio interculturale è l’anima che regge l’ “Hospitality Club”.

Sali a bordo – unisciti alla più grande rete online di scambi di ospitalità! Incontrerai amici da tutto il mondo e troverai sistemazioni gratuite quando viaggerai in ogni angolo del mondo. Non ci sono obblighi di nessun genere (non dovrai ospitare nessuno a casa tua!), l’iscrizione è gratuita e non vediamo l’ora che tu ti unisca a noi nella nostra rete mondiale di amici!

Network Neutrality

Network neutrality (equivalently “net neutrality”, “Internet neutrality” or “NN”) refers to a principle that is applied to residential broadband networks, and potentially to all networks. Precise definitions vary, but a broadband network free of restrictions on the kinds of equipment attached and the modes of communication allowed would be considered neutral by most advocates, provided it met additional tests relating to the degradation of various communication streams by others.

What’s this all about?

Big phone and cable companies are trying to get rid of Network Neutrality, the fundamental principle that prevents them from discriminating against your favorite Web sites and services.

Our broad coalition wants to keep the Internet free and open for everyone.

How does this affect you?

Second Life, a primary mechanism for the advancement of human civilization. (Steve Tobak)

... And Second Life - even in its present form - is a potentially significant development platform, not to mention a business opportunity to drive demand for internet infrastructure, processing power, memory capacity, software, gaming, and the like. I don't even want to consider the implications for pornography.

Not only is imitation the sincerest form of flattery, it's also a primary mechanism for the advancement of human civilization. Second Life may have a long way to go to fulfill its hype, but as the first baby steps toward imitating the real world in cyberspace, it demands close attention. After all, that's how we humans learn...
