[216]-230) and index.Representing life for a living -- Simflesh, simbones : at play in the artificial life ribotype -- Disciplined by the future : the promising bodies of cryonics -- Give me a body, then : corporeal time-images -- Remains to be seen : a self-extracting amalgam -- Uploading anticipation, becoming silicon -- Dot coma : the dead zone of media and the replication of family values -- Take my bone marrow, please : the community in which we have organs in common -- Wetwares ; or, cutting up a few aliens -- Sympathy for the alien : informatic ecologies and the proliferation of abduction.Wetwares ranges over recent research in artificial life, cloning, cryonics, computer science, organ transplantation, and alien abduction. Moving between actual technical practices, serious speculative technology, and science fiction, Doyle shows us emerging scientific paradigms where "life" becomes more a matter of information than of inner vitality-in short, becomes "wetwares" for DNA and computer networks.Theory out of bounds ;v. 24.Artificial lifeLifeElectronic books.Artificial life.Life.113/.8Doyle Richard1963-908813MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452170103321Wetwares2160588UNINA02151nam 2200373 450 991024575810332120230425161405.01-5386-2480-X(CKB)4100000001037962(NjHacI)994100000001037962(EXLCZ)99410000000103796220230425d2017 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrier2017 IEEE Blocks and Beyond Workshop (B&B) /Institute of Electrical and Electronics EngineersPiscataway, New Jersey :IEEE,2017.1 online resource1-5386-2481-8 Blocks programming environments (Scratch, Blockly, etc) represent program syntax trees as compositions of visual blocks They have introduced programming and computational thinking to tens of millions, reaching people of all ages and backgrounds Despite their popularity, there has been remarkably little research on the usability, effectiveness, and generalizability of affordances of these environments The goal of this 2nd workshop is to continue distilling testable hypotheses from the existing folk knowledge of blocks environments and identify research questions and partnerships that can legitimize, or discount, pieces of this knowledge It will bring together educators and researchers who work with blocks languages and members of the broader VL HCC community in We seek participants with diverse expertise, including, but not limited to design of programming environments, instruction with these environments, the learning sciences, data analytics, usability, and more.2017 IEEE Blocks and Beyond Workshop Computer programmingCongressesProgramming languages (Electronic computers)CongressesComputer programmingProgramming languages (Electronic computers)001.642NjHacINjHaclPROCEEDING99102457581033212017 IEEE Blocks and Beyond Workshop (B&B)2508819UNINA
