The Zhuangzi is named for and attributed to a man named Zhuang Zhou, who is customarily called "Zhuangzi" ("Master Zhuang", from Mandarin Chinese Zhuāngzǐ 莊子). A masterpiece of both philosophical and literary skill, it has significantly influenced major Chinese writers and poets for more than 2000 years from the Han dynasty (206 BC–AD 220) to the present. Though primarily known as a philosophical work, the Zhuangzi is regarded as one of the greatest literary works in Chinese history, and has been called "the most important pre- Qin text for the study of Chinese literature". While other ancient Chinese philosophers focused on moral and personal duty, Zhuangzi promoted carefree wandering and becoming one with "the Way" ( Dào 道) by following nature. The fables and anecdotes in the text attempt to illustrate the falseness of human distinctions between good and bad, large and small, life and death, and human and nature. Its main themes are of spontaneity in action and of freedom from the human world and its conventions. The Zhuangzi consists of a large collection of anecdotes, allegories, parables, and fables, which are often humorous or irreverent. Named for its traditional author, "Master Zhuang" ( Zhuangzi), the Zhuangzi is one of the two foundational texts of Taoism, along with the Tao Te Ching. The Zhuangzi ( Chinese: 莊子, historically romanized Chuang Tzŭ) is an ancient Chinese text from the late Warring States period (476–221 BC) which contains stories and anecdotes that exemplify the carefree nature of the ideal Taoist sage.

This all changes one night in a bar when she meets Jimmy, a charming werewolf with a wry sense of humor and a fondness for running wild during the full moon. A love story between a vampire and a werewolf by the creator of the enormously popular Sarah's Scribbles comics.Elsie the vampire is three hundred years old, but in all that time, she has never met her match. Then, as he got older, he moved on, with his robot Linex, to make inventions that worked and kept on inventing. He took things apart to harvest parts and see how they worked. He took odds and ends as a kid and put them together to make creations. Lonnie Johnson spent his childhood (and adulthood) tinkering with things. But when picking out this book I wondered if it was just nostalgia for people my age or if it would resonate with kids today. I think every kid in the nineties had a Super Soaker or at least had a friend with one. But it is his invention of the Super Soaker water gun that has made his most memorable splash with kids and adults. Growing up in a house full of brothers and sisters, persistence and a passion for problem solving became the cornerstone for a career as an engineer and his work with NASA. Whoosh! Lonnie Johnson’s Super-Soaking Stream of Inventions written by Chris Barton, illustrated by Don Tateįrom Goodreads: A love for rockets, robots, inventions, and a mind for creativity began early in Lonnie Johnson’s life.

Similar to the story in the book, our modern regulatory environment is a “ busy, busy world!” with its dynamic nature and complex landscape needed to adapt and keep up with the rapid technological innovations. The illustrations depict a journey of the main character, Goldbug, through the moving vehicles and organized chaos of the busy streets, striking a parallel to our modern regulatory environment. The name Goldbug Strategies was inspired by the children’s book “Cars and Trucks and Things That Go” by Richard Scarry. Walcoff, CEO and Founder, established a boutique consulting firm to advise innovative molecular science and digital health technology companies on their business and regulatory strategies. He then makes 3 quotes:ĭemocritus: "To me, one is weighing against the mass and the mass outweighs one." Author Unknown: "Few are enough for me, sufficient is one, enough there is no one. He believes that you should withdraw into yourself as much as possible and only should allow those who make you better. If you sit with a spectacle errors will sneak easier through the enjoyment. According to him, you run more risk when you are in a larger mass of people running. Dealing with the mass is depraved: there is none which recommends any flaws or imprints or accuses on mistakes, without we do know. In this letter Seneca writes what the (bad) influence of the mass is. These letters are clearly underlining Seneca's Stoic ideas, through topics such as slavery, decadence and death. Morales ad Lucilium (ethical letters to Lucilius) are 124 literary letters that the Roman philosopher Seneca wrote to his friend Lucilius.

From a school of fish in an underwater classroom to rats in a cafeteria, the artist tweaks familiar settings by populating them with his own gently anthropomorphic animal kingdom. The artist's passion for visual surprise doesn't end there: he has also concealed bumblebees, cats, rabbits and dinosaurs, among other things, in each of his lush and expressive oil-and-acrylic paintings. As one of the many visual bonuses in this volume, the letter of the correct response is hidden somewhere in Mark Buehner's illustration. Readers are encouraged to assess the situation and choose a suitable (and usually obvious) answer from three selections. On each spread one or more animal characters faces an ethical dilemma (should Ima Scalebody the fish cheat on her test? Should Howie Hogg clean up the toys he took out?). The multiple-choice format here translates into more of a spirited guessing game than a classroom-style quiz. In this clever companion picture book to their hilarious etiquette guide, It's a Spoon, Not a Shovel, the Buehners use wit and very punny humor to tackle the issue of ethics for children. This Capstone was later divided up by Alexander the Great into its component parts, with one piece hidden within each of the seven wonders of the world. In ancient times, a monstrous sunspot called the Tartarus sunspot (which occurs every 4,000-4,500 years) was prevented from causing major flooding and catastrophic weather by the use of the Golden Capstone.

I research and work on issues having to do with philosophy of technology and related concerns having to do with ethics and digital medial and new media.Īurora: I had the pleasure of hearing your presentation when you were a keynote speaker at the Digital Symposium in April in Edmonton. I really couldn’t decide when I was an undergraduate so I just did both and I have advanced degrees in both media production, media critical studies and then in continental philosophy. Gunkel: My background is sort of a split/dual personality in media studies and philosophy. Raphael Foshay,Īurora: Maybe you could start by telling us a few words about yourself, where you teach and your background. The symposium was funded by a Connection Grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and organized by Dr. Gunkel is the Presidential Teaching Professor of Communication Studies at Northern Illinois University. Later that year we met over Skype to talk about some of the points raised in his presentation, and other key ideas embedded in his 2012 publication, The Machine Question: Critical Perspectives on AI, Robots and Ethics. His talk challenged the audience to reframe and rethink the “human-machine” binary in 21st century understandings of ethics and agency.
