What do you really want to manipulate with kineto, time?

Kineto §

• Notes from the Kickoff Meeting of (drinami) (minutes)

  • It’s good to naturally be late if you’re taking notes, because it’s Modeless.

  • When it comes to that, “What do you really want to manipulate? Time?”

    • drinami
      • I think there’s something there.
      • Without using the word “time”.
      • You can go deeper that way.
      • Is there magic here?
      • Well, “time manipulation” seems to be a good selling point.
      • Manipulating “reality” rather than “real time”.
    • What is time in the first place?
      • Chronos Time vs Kairos Time
      • Is kineto Kairos?

  • Focus on the discussion of what we want to manipulate.

    • There is also a discussion about how only 10% of information is retained when reading a paper book, so maybe we should focus on efficiency.
    • There is also a discussion that using equations in class is not effective if it’s just written on the board.
      • There is a discussion that the speed of writing equations and the speed of understanding are just right.

  • If you add the catchy phrase “manipulating time,” people will stop thinking.

    • Thought stoppage by cool words

↑ The above is what (drinami) said at the kickoff meeting. §

↓ What (blu3mo) thought afterwards

• What is Time in the first place?

  • Q: What is “sharing time” in the context of communication?
    • I wrote a lot of thoughts on this here —> Sense of Time Sharing
      • In summary,
      • The feeling of “sharing time” is a one-sided sensation for the recipient of information.
        • It is felt when experiencing something (video, reality, etc.) that is the same as the sender of the information.
      • If you look at it that way, face-to-face conversations, Zoom meetings, and comments on Nico Nico Douga are fundamentally no different.
        • The only difference is the delay from when it is sent to when it is received, whether it’s 1ms, 300ms, or 1 year.
        • In an environment where the amount of delay is within an acceptable range, two-way dialogue is possible (e.g. face-to-face conversations, Zoom conversations).
    • The groundbreaking aspect of kineto is that it makes it possible to manipulate this “delay”.

• What is the essence of what we want to do with kineto?

  • Synchronize the speed of receiving information and the speed of interpreting/understanding it.

    • Eliminate the discrepancy between the two speeds.
    • To do that, manipulate the “delay of time sharing” when receiving the teacher’s information.

  • The key point is that the teacher doesn’t have to share the same time with the students all the time.

    • Because it’s a one-to-many conversation.
    • The students feel like they are “sharing time” with the teacher, but the reverse is not true.
      • It might be difficult for the teacher.

  • If the “delay of time sharing” is below a certain amount, two-way dialogue is possible.

    • With proper adjustments, students with similar amounts of delay can have a conversation.

  • Is it necessary to make the feeling of “sharing time” stronger?

    • It can be argued that it’s not necessary as long as the necessary information is obtained.
    • Maybe we should consider the teacher’s perspective more.

• In the first place, time is not something that we want to let the user manipulate alone.

  • There is quite a value in doing it automatically.
  • So, “manipulating time” is strange.
  • Free synchronous classes from time constraints.
    • Well, “being able to manipulate” seems like a good selling point.
