@StephenWalker @John_P_Devaney @_mejc @physiart -Is that not because there are many "I"s? #mscidel
@John_P_Devaney @physiart Multiple selves or just different sides of the same self? Semantics? #mscidel
@John_P_Devaney @_mejc @physiart But we still say 'I', not 'we'. #mscidel
@John_P_Devaney @_mejc @physiart -and it's not just the voices, but also the style and content. #mscidel
@StephenWalker @physiart Good point! Ironically, it would mean we will never be Masters! #mscidel
@physiart @StephenWalker Check out Catfish! #mscidel
@_mejc @physiart is that a perfect example of staring an argument in an empty room? :-) #mscidel
@StephenWalker @physiart Here's an interesting one :) http://t.co/Uf6inmjx #mscidel
@StephenWalker Maybe you are talking to a brain in a vat :-) #mscidel
@physiart there are computer programs that accurately simulate conversations. I could be one of them, sent here to test you :-p #mscidel
@StephenWalker Digital Conversations are real. Identities may be not. #mscidel
Do you believe that apprenticeship is really possible in digital words? #mscidel
Itiel Dror - 'learn quick' does not mean usr in the correct way. #lt13uk #mscidel
@cmsinclair yes. I'm a bit lost without it. I've had it for about five years. We've been through a lot together. #mscidel
@StephenWalker It depends on the identity you have chosen to use Stephen :-P #mscidel
@physiart is this conversation not 'real', or less real because it's digital? #mscidel
@CMSinclair @hamacleod IT systems process data with or in context. Offline storage has none. You need context state #mscidel
@_mejc @CMSinclair In real world we need self. In digital world we would "borrow" ourselves to the organism (fiction). #mscidel
@lelil Traumatic indeed. Does iPhone loss feel like a loss of (part of) self? #mscidel
RT @physiart: ... More provocative: Do u need to have a self in a digital world? #mscidel >>What would 'u' refer to if there's no self?
@physiart I guess not if you're just an observer, but to be involved, a self will be created through your digital footprint #mscidel
Apprenticeship in digital worlds. It will be common in the future #mscidel
@suchprettyeyes @CMSinclair Having reason to consider that very thing today. My iPhone completely died on me last night. #mscidel #traumatic
@hamacleod @CMSinclair More provocative: Do u need to have a self in a digital world? #mscidel
