Organizing Enlightenment

Information Overload and the Invention of the Modern Research University

By: Chad Wellmon

The Enlightenment-era concerns that gave rise to the modern research university can illuminate contemporary debates about knowledge in the digital age. Since its inception, the research university has been the central institution of knowledge in the West. Today its intellectual authority is being challenged on many fronts, above all by radical technological change. Organizing Enlightenment tells the story of how the university emerged in the early nineteenth century at a similarly fraught moment of cultural anxiety about revolutionary technologies and their disruptive effects on established institutions of knowledge. Drawing on the histories of science, the university, and print, as well as media theory and philosophy, Chad Wellmon explains how the research university and the ethic of disciplinarity it created emerged as the final and most lasting technology of the Enlightenment. Organizing Enlightenment reveals higher education’s story as one not only of the production of knowledge but also of the formation of a particular type of person: the disciplinary self. In order to survive, the university would have to institutionalize a new order of knowledge, one that was self-organizing, internally coherent, and embodied in the very character of the modern, critical scholar.

Breakfast with Einstein

The Exotic Physics of Everyday Objects

By: Chad Orzel

Your alarm goes off, and you head to the kitchen to make yourself some toast and a cup of coffee. Little do you know, as you savor the aroma of the steam rising from your cup, that your ordinary morning routine depends on some of the weirdest phenomena ever discovered. The world of quantum physics is generally thought of as hopelessly esoteric. While classical physics gives us the laws governing why a ball rolls downhill, how a plane is able to fly, and so on, its quantum cousin gives us particles that are actually waves, "spooky" action at a distance, and Schrodinger's unlucky cat. But, believe it or not, even the most mundane of everyday activities is profoundly influenced by the abstract and exotic world of the quantum. In Breakfast with Einstein, Chad Orzel illuminates the strange phenomena lurking just beneath the surface of our ordinary lives by digging into the surprisingly complicated physics involved in his (and anyone's) morning routine. Orzel, author of How to Teach Quantum Physics to Your Dog, explores how quantum connects with everyday reality, and offers engaging, layperson-level explanations of the mind-bending ideas central to modern physics. From the sun, alarm clocks, and the red glow of a toaster's hot filaments (the glow that launched quantum mechanics) to the chemistry of food aroma, a typical day is rich with examples of quantum weirdness. Breakfast with Einstein reveals the hidden physics all around us, and after reading this book, your ordinary mornings will never seem quite as ordinary again.

Designing Realistic Human Behavior Into Multi-Agent Systems

By: Chad F. Hennings

As Multi-agent systems advance toward moving virtual humans such as modeled infantry soldiers around a virtual environment for modeling and simulation purposes, an important factor to be considered is how the agent internalizes and reacts to its environment. One method to simulate this sensory perception and the construction of generalized internal knowledge is the symbolic reactive agent architecture. This architecture utilizes symbolic constructive agents to internalize and symbolically represent the outside environment within the agent and reactive agents to decide what course of action will be taken next based on this internal environment. This type of architecture also lends itself well to putting variability and non-homogeneity into different agents by controlling the level of hindrance or interference that the agent utilizes when constructing this inner environment. A simple path finding task was used to determine the overall utility of this architecture with respect to truly representing human performance in cognitive tasks. Humans as well as different simulated agents were put through the same task in their respective environment and their results were compared. A concept called the bracketing heuristic was also utilized to determine whether the model may translate well to general path-finding tasks.
