Radio Moni nimmt Testbetrieb auf

Hier ist Radio Moni, das Internetradio.

In zunächst total unregelmässigen Abständen werden Testprogramme ausgestrahlt. Nach Ende der Testphase soll es feste Sendezeiten geben. Ein 24-Stunden Service ist zunächst nicht geplant. Also immer mal wieder probieren!

Das Programm wird auch im Second Life-Sim Pangaea ausgestrahlt, und zwar zunächst im Boutique Tonstudio auf dem Nordwest-Hügel der Insel. Hier soll ein Musiktreff entstehen, also auflegen, gemeinsam Musik hören und reden - in Second Life per Textchat ohne die Musik zu stören ;-)

Interview with Moritz R in "Is Greater Than"

Is Greater Than is an eclectic online journal from the States written by a crack staff of freelance writers, activists, artists, journalists, and bloggers examining the intersections of politics and culture, art and the free market, and science and technology. They’ve been called “great” by the fine folks at Featherproof Books, “excellent” by Serial Consign, “a must read” by Futurosity’s Robert Ellis (who had other kind words to say) and received a rating of 8.8 out of 10 by the editors at Blogged.com. We call them... hmm, brillant! The interview is here.

Dr. Albert Hofmann ist tot

Der Mann, der LSD nicht nur entdeckt, sondern auch im Sinne einer zweiten Aufklärung verstanden hat, die er in seinem ganzen 102 Jahre währenden Leben eindrucksvoll verkörperte, hat seine letzte Reise angetreten.

Space Songs 'could attract alien danger'

Aliens could misinterpret earth's classic songs as declarations of war if they are recklessly broadcast into space, some scientists say.
Last week NASA broadcast a Beatles song, Across the Universe, towards the North Star, in the hope it would be noticed by extra-terrestrial beings.
But scientists have urged NASA to be more cautious, saying aliens could misinterpret the song, and even take it as a battle cry.
"Before sending out even symbolic messages, we need an open discussion about the potential risks," New Scientist magazine reported Dr Douglas Vakoch of the SETI Institute as saying.
Professor Barrie Jones of Open University said: "the chances are slight, but the consequences would be huge — the end of life on Earth".
"If they have the technology to cross interstellar space to reach us, they will be so much in advance of us humans that there is nothing we could do to resist them," he said.

The nearest star to Earth, Alpha Proxima, is four light years away.

Successful young democracy

“I must say, I’m a little envious. If I were slightly younger and not employed here, I think it would be a fantastic experience to be on the front lines of helping this young democracy succeed. It must be exciting for you … in some ways romantic, in some ways, you know, confronting danger. You’re really making history, and thanks.”
