Friday the 13th

me yesterday as my dentist appointment for today, my colleague joked ... who knows what was good for ... What she meant: Friday is an unlucky day - Prefer to avoid things that can go wrong. Those who view today is an unlucky and it can only go all wrong, "seriously, which is the one to act accordingly (keyword: self-fulfilling prophecy ) and to pay close attention to other things, not the fold.

It will give people who leave on the day not out of the house. From Wikipedia I am learning the technical term for " Paraskavedekatriaphobie . For this " Friday, 13-phobics " which should be today, the third report in 2009 have been sick. Small consolation for recreation make the years 2010 and 2011 with only a Friday, 13

Consider the two components in more detail. In general is busy the Friday rather positive, because it heralded the weekend. A negative connotation given Friday at the Christian perspective, Jesus was crucified on a Friday and Adam and Eve expelled from paradise on the day.

The 13 however, is our house not look scary. In hotels it is rare to room No. 13, some tall buildings have no 13th Floor and when we get in a competition start number 13, the probability is high that we consider at least briefly on a possible disadvantage. From the Bible with the Last Supper and the 13 persons one of which is a traitor to Sleeping Beauty with the twelve golden plates, the 13th for the Fee had no place - the 13 and misfortune seem deeply rooted in us.

Nothing is bad, but thinking makes it so! , so it is also possible to see on the same soil, the Chinese in the 13 is a lucky number. Also for the Norse goddess Freya was the 13 is a lucky number. And Freya is also the namesake for Friday ...

University of innovation. A taste of cloud-work shops and a glimmer hope

Finland is a small country in the semi-periphery between the Russian Federation and Sweden. Although, or perhaps because that has only in the 1960s concluded industrialization the Nordic welfare state in the front seats of the international charts in the areas of social equality Nestled education and innovation policy .

enough to the industry but the little finger (deregulation in technology since the mid-1990s, the focus university research on the needs of the economy, ...), it is even more hungry. Second, the historical world of seclusion and full employment Finland accustomed to new industries (and technologies, see Nokia ) dependent. After the far-reaching restructuring of the Finnish university system the last few years state and science go a step further. In Helsinki the Technical College merged ( TKK - Helsingin teknillinen Korkeakoulu ), the Graduate School ( HSE - Helsingin kauppakorkeakoulu ) and the Academy of Art and Design ( TaiK - Helsingin taideteollinen Korkeakoulu ) in January 2010 Aalto University of Helsinki ( A - Aalto-yliopisto ). The triad of technology and engineering sciences, business and organization sciences and theoretical and applied design to be a driving force for innovation systems. An internationally visible on University to attract students and researchers useful to bring specialists hungry companies to Helsinki, and so a new ignition Wealth motor.

a taste of the brand-new Finnish University of innovation, according to a previous working title for the new Superunie gave the symposium Open 2009 . The students of media laboratory of the University of Art and Design invited 5.-6. November, a, to listen to presentations of projects and promotion wild scientists from Finland (and one from Italy) to ogle, which said to open systems, open cooperation and contemporary organization and process forms.

were of course special topics such as "Openness, Inclusion and Participation in Museums" ( Mariana Salgado ) or "Allotment Games: Case-study of a fan-based board game production" ( Andrew Gryf Paterson ) to words, but in general keep here at the front of the highly creative democratic reformers with projects such as "Micro Democracy" (Tanya Kotro , Sanna-Mari Paukkeri ) or "open participation '(Matti Nelimarkka) relatively well against the allegedly imminent transformation coffee destructive students in vermarktwirtschaftende cynic.

Although the topics were not particularly surprised himself - of course, came the complex personal information worn ( Jamo Koponen ) for - these forums are indications that future decision makers and what characterizes them is important. First, those people are highly trained, have no more problems with information-theoretical questions, and may be revealing flashes sometimes casually in conversation about their superiority emergence or complex systems. Second, they are among a cohort of up to forty towed into youth: The second piece of paper the projector via postal Quype / Twitter makes public that are dominant narratives and models borrowed from popular culture . Short attention spans are obtained positive by multi-linear presentation and communication forms, the rank and file lined up Apple computers to be streamed onlookers noticeable via Skype and Twitter.

content is interesting above all, the ultimately successful separation of the concept design (design) from its connotation as a visual utility. Through industrial design and process design are the students of the School of Art in service design and design strategy arrived and break into the domain of logistics engineers, scientists and other organization (post-) Fordist one.

With buzz words like "Bazaar Style" breaks out about Massimo Menichinell i us , calls for an open collaborative networks that can develop projects as a mass non-linear problem solutions and the Emergenzprinzip solely from the productive power brings productivity and innovation processes possible. Menichinelli proposes a Open P2P Design than before Metadesign for collaboration. Examples (each representing aspects), he lists, among others ThinkCycle , OpenProcessing or open architecture. Unfortunately, the dividing line forlorn on the absurd and the list of promising seeds for libertarian organizations of work and production continues to grow until it includes community currency, and other jokes.

But as so often collides with the objective lifeguard of the market economy to the subjective realities of it. A community of scale where distributed creativity, and other pretty socio-mathematical ideas effectively sets a stage lower ahead of confidence building, is inserted after the first substantial work in the collaborative cloud and there is a (realistic) hope to value for paid work. So it remains to speak of the potentiation of the productive forces and to hope for projects like Linux and Mozilla, the proprietary Environmental survival and lower the threshold of perception as dramatically.

Hans im Glück

"Secrets of fortune" was an article of the web magazine (10/09), in which it, inter alia, to "Hans in Luck" went. From childhood I had in mind that John traded until he had nothing left. More told the magazine does not train well, and concluded: money is not everything! Is this the only message? Somehow I found that too little. So tale re-read:

Hans had served his master for seven years and was awarded a large lump of gold. He made it on the way to his mother. Hans dragged heavily on the Gold . As a horseman he offered to exchange his horse, took Hans' from my heart, "which vaulted into the saddle and rode away from.

But horse threw him off and Hans the air was passed in riding. He admired a farmer, and driving a cow before him to have at its leisurely pace and the advantage of more milk and cheese. The farmer said, "takes you so much pleasure, then I will not mind giving the cow for the horse." Hans agreed enthusiastically and went on his way home. When he eventually got thirsty, he wanted to milk the cow. The cow gave him a kick , so he fell on the floor.

A butcher of the way was cleared to him that it was an old battle-ready animals. Hans, who does not like cows, is pleased, as the butcher a young pig for the Cow bot. Then he met a young boy with a goose on the arm that made him a bad conscience, which was stolen pig. So did Hans have nothing to do. Curse was swapped for the goose and went to the last village.

A crafty scissors grinder enthusiastic Hans took the knife-grinder-craft and him from the goose , for a grinding stone and a normal stone. Hans was also pleased with this exchange - well, except for the load of bricks . As he remembered the stones in a well, he said only: "As happy as I have it no man under the sun." free with a light heart and now he jumped continued. Six times

Hans faced difficulties: 2x he had to bear heavy (gold, stones), 2x him physical harm was inflicted (horse, cow) and 2 he had to tell fibs (stolen pig, knife-grinders-hand drive). But sorry to quarrel with them instead and past, saw the optimist despite difficulties ahead . The "money alone does not make you happy" in combination with the story makes a nice story for children.
