KO20: Anonymity

[academixml]
[collection]
[hiromi]

Anonymity

In his essay ‘What Is an Author?’, Michel Foucault affirms the writing of a discourse freed of impositions of authorship, stating [foucault] “the author is the ideological figure by which one marks the manner in which we fear the proliferation of meaning” [/foucault] indicating how the concept of an author acts to close and fix the meaning of the text.

In [knowledge_object_id:21] and [knowledge_object_id:22] I’d like to show how a certain kind of anonymity may risk the meaning of the texts to proliferate, in a manner potentially unity imposing and (ironically) authoritative – by looking at collaborative writing platforms online. Firstly I believe we’re seeing two types of Anonymity, which can be categorized as:

1. Individual Anonymity : anonymous contributions made by anonymous individuals.

2. Collective Anonymity : contributions made anonymous via collective editing.

KO16: Wiki v.s AcademiXML

[academixml]

UnknownAnonymous @5putniko AcademiXMLってさ、要するに学術論文をwikiっぽくするってこと? So is using AcademiXML basically like writing the academic paper with a wiki?


11:52 PM Sep 20th from Echofon in reply to 5putniko
[/anonymous]

They’re both online and collaborative. They’re both open for access, open for contributions. They both make the boundaries between author, editor and reader unclear. Although it’s true AcademiXML and wiki share very similar characteristics my reply to the above tweet is:

sputniko5putniko @bunguman No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




11:53 PM Sep 20th from web in reply to bunguman


I’d like to make clear the differences between using a wiki and AcademiXML for academic writing in knowledge objects [knowledge_object_id:17],[knowledge_object_id:18] and [knowledge_object_id:19].

KO13: What is AcademiXML?

[academixml]
[collection]
[hiromi]

What is AcademiXML?

AcademiXML is a markup language for writing, connecting and sharing academic text. It allows the the author to tag her own piece of writing with the author name, time, location, keywords and other relevant information so her text can be filtered by a chosen keyword or be associated with other authors’ texts.

AcademiXML supports the addition of context or “meta-data” about where the writing came from, in a form meaningful both to machines and humans to facilitate the searching of data streams they particularly need. This helps spontaneous, unplanned connections to be made between texts from different sources with common contexts.

A fundamental idea of AcademiXML is to break down the traditional book or a thesis into smaller chunks of knowledge so they can be readily re-arranged, be filtered, read non-linearly and aggregated into other books or collections of knowledge, similar with regard to (but in AcademiXML‘s case, more fine-grained) what liquid publications puts it [liquidpub] ‘groupings of publications that can be based on topic and time but also on arbitrary rules in terms of what is included and how the quality of publications is assessed for them to be included in the collection.’[/liquidpub]

AcademiXML is currently in active development in collaboration with my colleague Cesar Harada .

KO12. AcademiXML ver 1.0 – Syntax

[academixml]
[collection]
[hiromi]

AcademiXML ver 1.0 – Syntax

Since most text, audio and video formats available on the web is in the HTML format, AcademiXML is designed to work with HTML as well as standalone.

When AcademiXML is used with HTML, the symbols “<” and “>” are replaced with “[" and "]” (similar to the markup language used in Wikipedia) to avoid confusion with HTML tags. The author can enclose snippets of her blog posts or her web page in AcademiXML to make that portion of text discoverable by the AcademiXML web crawler, which adds the text in its global network of academic texts. Alternatively, she can write the text entirely in the AcademiXML format and publish it on the web as a xml file.

Instance Case 1: Minimal Implementation
Below is an example of a minimal implementation in AcademiXML.

<academixml xsi:schemaLocation=”http://www.academixml.org/xsd/001.xsd” version=”1″>
<collection author =”Hiromi Ozaki”, time = “2009-09-19T13:37:45.0Z”>
<feed>http://www.academixml.org/examples/helloworld.xml</feed>
<data author =”Hiromi Ozaki”, time = “2009-09-19T13:37:45.0Z”>
<value>Hello World! This is my first academic text written in AcademiXML. </value>
</data>
</collection>
</academixml>

Instance Case 2 : Minimal Implementation with HTML
Below is an example of a minimal implementation in AcademiXML used within HTML.

[academixml]
[collection]
[hiromi]Hello World! This is my first academic text written in AcademiXML.[/hiromi]
[/collection]
#collection [creator:"Hiromi Ozaki", time:"2009-09-19T13:37:45.0Z"]
#hiromi [creator:"Hiromi Ozaki", time:"2009-09-19T13:37:45.0Z"]
[/academixml]

The AcademiXML for HTML differs from its standard XML format in the way that it has ‘declarations’ in the very end or the beginning, in a style similar to Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). By declaring all details of the texts and author in one section, it un-clutters the text making it more legible for the readers. Alternatively, if legibility is not an issue, the writer can still write the text in the same format as the original, in which case the “<” and “>” symbols are simply replaced with “[" and "]“.

Instance Case 3 : Complete Implementation
Below is an example of AcademiXML containing complete information that can be recorded.
<academixml xsi:schemaLocation=”http://www.academixml.org/xsd/001.xsd” version=”1″>

KO11: Tweets on Text and Writing

[academixml]
[collection]
[hiromi]
Below are tweets surrounding my twitter feed (under the pseudoname 5putniko) on text and writing, made on 13th September, 2009.

The tweets were made in Japanese. English Translation follows the original Japanese text, not necessarily under the 140 character limit in Twitter (It seems that the Japanese language is easier to fit more into smaller texts )

If you are unfamiliar with Twitter’s language conventions, please view [knowledge_object_id:10]

sputniko5putniko 私、モロにネット世代に育ったわけなんだけど、文字の読み書きに関する意識全般がネット以前と全く違う気がする。まず、論文やら本やらを書くとき「主題」を決めて、Linearに詰めて書くという手法が気分的に物凄く「かったるい」っていうか時代遅れな気がする


sputniko5putniko I basically grew up right in the middle of the internet generation, and I feel that the way I perceive reading and writing text is completely different from the generation before. Deciding on a dissertation or a book “topic” and writing linearly to support it feels absolutely tedious and pas·sé

sputnikoh4nzさ らに言えば、論文を査読する世代との ジェネレーションギャップもあるので悩ましい. もちろん自分のコースの教授陣はいわゆる”ニューメディア”に早くから取り組んできた人ではあるけど、彼ら自身どういうスタイルを学生に求めるべきかとい う指針は手探り状態ではなかろか.


sputnikoh4nz To add to this there’s also a generation gap with the tutors who review our dissertations which also makes a mess.  I guess my course professors have worked with the so called ‘new media’ from an early stage, but I think they themselves are messily trying to figure out what writing styles they’re seeking in their students
