Progress in Placemaking
Placemaking – a concept, methodology and planning tool used to shape and reshape public spaces1 – is an enduring element of urban planning. One of the earliest scholarly mentions of placemaking app
Swiss Neutrality
Connecting the Dots
On 15 May 2013, 19 tornadoes occurred across north and central Texas, killing 6, injuring over 50, and causing more than $100 million in property damage. The majority of the impacts to life and property were the direct result of category-3 and category-4 enhanced Fujita scale (EF-3 and EF-4) tornadoes that affected the communities of Cleburne and Granbury, Texas. This study focuses on an examination of the north Texas integrated warning team (IWT…
Including Children 3-11 With Physical Disabilities
Technological and Social Drivers of Change in the Online Music Industry (originally published in February 2002)
This paper is included in the First Monday Special Issue: Music and the Internet, published in July 2005. Special Issue editor David Beer asked authors to submit additional comments regarding their articles. This article complements two works that I wrote around the same time—in Popular Music and Society ("E-commerce Business Models for the Music Industry", volume 27, number 2), and—along with Bruce Wrenn—in the International Journal on Media Man…
Computer–aided music distribution
The Internet has made music more widely available and increased the convenience with which we can listen to music. We increasingly recognize that recorded music can take the form of digital files. The Internet and related technologies for music delivery have been made viable by advances in compression, data storage, and transmission technologies. To provide greater value to consumers, music labels need to make greater use of retrieval and selecti…
Podcasting
Podcasting has become popular as it allows listeners to time–shift content, i.e., to listen — when it suits them — to radio–like programming on portable MP3 and related devices. Dissatisfaction with traditional radio — which has too much advertising and is perceived to have generic programming — is fueling interest in programming that better meets the individual needs and interests of consumers. Podcasting represents a shift from mass broadcastin…
E-commerce Business Models for the Music Industry
Clearly, the music industry faces considerable pressure to adopt new business models in order to meet consumer needs successfully in the e-commerce milieu. In particular—as is discussed in the following section—music labels are incurring lower costs and reduced barriers to entry. In the third section of this paper, I examine the business models that are being developed to respond to these changes and discuss the flaws inherent in these evolving b…
Managing Internet gambling in the workplace
This paper reports on the findings of research relating to Internet gambling in the workplace. We then examine technologies by which employee gambling can be limited or monitored. While Internet access is a productivity tool allowing employees to communicate rapidly, perform research and engage in e-commerce, the Internet also has the potential to be a major distraction allowing employees to play games, shop while at work and even engage in onlin…
Technological and Social Drivers of Change in the Online Music Industry
Considerable attention has been given to the legal implications arising from the distribution of music in a digital format via the Internet. However, less attention has been paid to the technological and social drivers of change in the music industry. This paper attempts to demonstrate the significant impact that social and technological forces have on the music industry, especially regarding lowering barriers to entry
Online Grocery Shopping
Dot.com entrepreneurs failed spectacularly in their attempts to create e-grocery companies. This paper examines consumer motives and concerns with regard to online grocery shopping. The reasons for the success experienced by traditional bricks-and-mortar companies that have expanded into this market are also examined
Life After 'Life After Life'
Light at the End of the Tunnel? Philosophy of Religion and the Near Death Experience
This article argues that currently many aspects of the Near Death Experience (NDE) remain a mystery, even after the more than two decades of discussion and analysis triggered by the publication of Raymond Moody's ground‐breaking study, Life After Life in 1975. It suggests that one reason for this continuing mystery is connected to the current under‐representation of studies of the phenomenon from within philosophy generally, and philosophy of rel…
