Discipline and Punish, Panopticism The following, according to an order published at the end of the seventeenth century, were the measures to be taken when the plague appeared in a town. First, a strict spatial partitioning: the closing of the town and its outlying districts, a prohibition to leave the town on pain of death, the killing of all stray animals; the division of the town into distinct quarters, each governed by an intendant. Each street is placed under the authority of a syndic, who keeps it under surveillance; if he leaves the street, he will be condemned to death. Inspection functions ceaselessly. Five or six days after the beginning of the quarantine, the process of purifying the houses one by one is begun. If it is true that the leper gave rise to rituals of exclusion, which to a certain extent provided the model for and general form of the great Confinement, then the plague gave rise to disciplinary projects. They are different projects, then, but not incompatible ones.
Clare Cherikoff, Awakening and the power of Now and Then Coaching Assessments for Life Coaches, Business Coaches, Career Coaches, and Executive Coaches Zeoform: The eco-friendly building material of the future? Zeoform promises a recyclable, low carbon-footprint building material that's as strong as ebony Image Gallery (4 images) Australian company Zeo has developed and patented a glue-free process that creates a strong, versatile new building material out of just cellulose and water. The resulting hardwood-like material known as Zeoform can then be sprayed, molded or shaped into a range of products. And it's not just trees that stand to benefit – Zeoform also promises an eco-friendly alternative to the use of plastics and resins. The environmental advantage of using cellulose as raw material is that, as the most abundant organic compound on Earth, it can be extracted from a wide range of sources including recycled paper, fabrics and plants. The formula used to make Zeoform imitates a natural glue-free process called hydroxyl bonding, whereby cellulose fibers stick together in water. Zeo is launching a crowd-funding campaign October 19th and 20th during the LA Green Festival. About the Author
ENNEAGRAM - Understanding Unconscious Strategies of People, Organizations, and Cultures (Your first-ever Business e-Coach) How You Can Use the Enneagram History Discovering Your Unconscious Strategies Structure of the Enneagram Types of Personality Defined Dynamics of Your Personality How Your Can Use the Enneagram The purpose of the Enneagram is self-knowledge that can be used to further your spiritual growth, and your understanding and compassion of others. History The word Enneagram is from the Greek and means "nine points". Discovering and Influencing Your Unconscious Strategies We all born as Essence, but somewhere in early childhood you develop a defensive strategy to deal with whatever is missing or lacking in your environment. For most of us, this strategy is largely unconscious, manifesting itself as a continuing, recurring motivation for behavior. This is an intuitive system, and most likely when you encounter your unconscious strategy you will feel on this level. Structure The Enneagram is composed of a circle enclosing a triangle and a star, creating a nine pointed figure. Types of Personality Defined
Personality Revealed By How You Judge Others Watch out, what you say about others may actually be like holding a mirror to yourself. A recent study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology examined “perceiver effects,” a tendency for people to view others as having the same personality and motives as they do. Your IQ, your gender, and your attitude may reveal more about your own personality than you think. Three separate studies were conducted on college undergraduates to determine the extent that personal characteristics affect a person’s perception of other people. Research participants with positive perceptions of others were more likely to be satisfied with their own life. On the flip side, those with negative perceptions of others were more likely to judge others as more extraverted, less agreeable, and less emotionally stable. It gets more interesting. The findings aren’t conclusive or definitive, but they are intriguing. Perceiver effects may in fact be self-perpetuated.
michigan taubmancollege Project Title The Stratus Project Faculty Geoff Thün and Kathy Velikov Project Abstract The Stratus Project develops a kinetic interior envelope, seemingly alive with sensors and intelligence, set into motion based on sensory input to affect the atmosphere that it surrounds, and in continual information exchange and dialogue with breather and environment. The first prototype is comprised of a thickly arrayed suspended textile consisting of a tensegrity-based structural weave, diffusing membranes and breathing cells. Research Topics Environmental Design, Serial Fabrication, Responsive Systems, New Material Assemblies and Interactive Media. Project Goals The Stratus Project and its surrounding research aims to attune our attention to our immediate air-based environment and to the physical conditions that produce it. Project Findings As a seed project, the development of a fully operational prototype has been of great value to the overall work. Construction Methods, Materials Used, Research

Eye Direction and Lying - How to detect lies from the direction of an individual's gaze / visual accessing cues. Interesting Info -> Lying Index -> Eye Direction & Visual Accessing Cues Eye Movement and Direction & How it Can Reveal Truth or Lies This is a continuation of our previous article Detecting Lies. Can the direction a person's eyes reveal whether or not they are making a truthful statement? In these shows a detective will deduce if a person is being untruthful simply because they looked to the left or right while making a statement. In reality, it would be foolish to make such a snap judgment without further investigation... but the technique does have some merit. So, here it is... read, ponder and test it on your friends and family to see how reliable it is for yourself. Visual Accessing Cues - "Lying Eyes" The first time "Visual Accessing Cues" were discussed (at least to my knowledge), was by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in their book "Frogs into Princes: Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) " From their experiments this is what they found. The Gist of it... Final Notes: Continue Reading:
Special Projects Deployability Deployability STRUCTURE This deployable system combines two types of connections that allows for a locally responsive deployment. The scissor joint, the first connection type, has one degree of movement. The opposing top and bottom joints are connected by one strut which forces a simultaneous movement between every top and bottom connection in the system. A structure built with purely scissor joints is limited to even, global deployment. The half scissor joint, the second connection type, has one degree of movement but the top and bottom joints do not need to deploy at the same rate. SURFACE The surface for this structure is an adaptation of a Ron Resch’s triangular deployable surface. The Ron Resch surface was redesigned to connect to the underlying structure with these hexagonal joints. RESEARCH Deployable structure is understood through its surface packing and its part to part connections. Project Credits:
enneagram What is the Enneagram? The Enneagram is a system that studies the differences between people. It classifies human beings into nine personality types. These nine types are organized around a nine-point diagram. We all have the traits of the nine types, but in different proportions, and one type is usually dominant. A basic goal in every coaching process is to help the coachee to proactively take charge of his or her own life. The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. Therefore, in order to begin to produce a lasting change in our lives, we must distinguish what is currently shaping our judging and our decisions.
