In the Margins
In this new book of poetry, Gary K. Olson's keen observations of life's intimate moments, large and small, come to life with wit and emotional grace. Thesepoems open up the deep issues of life and the beauty of the natural worldwith startling simplicity."Gary Olson's poetry sings with the rhythm of life, the thought and feelingof being deeply alive. He writes as a master of the metaphor sothat as one reads of ordinary things something truly extraordinary isrevealed. The beauty of the earth, the wonder of growing, the ecstasyof love for the young and the older, the haunting specter of death, thefledging faith for the final future--all this is his territory, traversed withhumor, humility and great passion. He writes of a Drummer, at timesheard distinctly and then more faintly as one steps into the surpriseof a new day. There's a theology here, rooted in the classic themes ofChristian faith and revealed vividly in the ordinariness and wonder ofexistence."Paul R. Sponheim, Professor Emeritus of Systematic Theology,Luther Seminary, St. Paul
Planning and Designing the IP Broadcast Facility
The transition to computer-based technologies and file-based workflows is one of the most significant changes the broadcast and production industry has seen. Media is produced for multiple delivery platforms: Over the Air, Over the Top, large screen displays, cable, satellite, web, digital signage, tablets, and smartphones. These changes impact all aspects of creation, production, media management, technical operations, business processes, and distribution to end users. Of all the books and papers discussing storage mapping, packet transport, and compression algorithms, none puts all the pieces together and explains where these fit into the whole environment. Planning and Designing the IP Br...
Working Together Apart
Increasingly, teams are working together when they are not in the same location, even though there are many challenges to doing so successfully. Here we review the latest insights into these matters, guided by a framework that we have developed during two decades of research on this topic. This framework organizes a series of factors that we have found to differentiate between successful and unsuccessful distributed collaborations. We then review the kinds of technology options that are available today, focusing more on types of technologies rather than specific instances. We describe a database of geographically distributed projects we have studied and introduce the Collaboration Success Wizard, an online tool for assessing past, present, or planned distributed collaborations. We close with a set of recommendations for individuals, managers, and those higher in the organizations who wish to support distance work.
All Things Through Christ
Pastor Gary Olson presents a candid, nostalgic reflection on God's presence and provision through his life and ministry and in so doing invites and encourages readers to reflect on God's activity in their lives and continue to trust in the God fully revealed in Jesus Christ.
Empathy Imperiled
The most critical factor explaining the disjuncture between empathy’s revolutionary potential and today’s empathically-impaired society is the interaction between the brain and our dominant political culture. The evolutionary process has given rise to a hard-wired neural system in the primal brain and particularly in the human brain. This book argues that the crucial missing piece in this conversation is the failure to identify and explain the dynamic relationship between an empathy gap and the hegemonic influence of neoliberal capitalism, through the analysis of the college classroom, the neoliberal state, media, film and photo images, marketing of products, militarization, mass culture...
Onetree
Documents a project in which all parts of an ailing 170-year-old tree felled in the National Trust's Tatton Estate in Cheshire were distributed to over 70 designers, artists and makers in Great Britain to be turned into artistic products.
Justifying Belief
While Stanley Fish has exerted immense influence on the study of seventeenth-century poetry and prose, his most widely read works—and perhaps his most important—are his nonliterary writings. In Justifying Belief, Gary Olson examines Fish's nonliterary work and explains that what unites Fish's interventions in so many seemingly disparate areas of inquiry is his belief in the centrality of rhetoric. Whether he is discussing how disciplines conduct their work, how political positions triumph, or how practice always derives from specific situations despite the grandiose theories employed to justify them, Fish consistently turns to the specific local, contingent context—to the rhetorical si...

Coordination Theory and Collaboration Technology
The National Science Foundation funded the first Coordination Theory and Collaboration Technology initiative to look at systems that support collaborations in business and elsewhere. This book explores the global revolution in human interconnectedness. It will discuss the various collaborative workgroups and their use in technology. The initiative focuses on processes of coordination and cooperation among autonomous units in human systems, in computer and communication systems, and in hybrid organizations of both systems. This initiative is motivated by three scientific issues which have been the focus of separate research efforts, but which may benefit from collaborative research. The first...
