Thats a lovely sociological insight..but.. 47. Realistically, the current mainstream response to these ideas looks like 48. http://flickr.com/photos/zanotti/314391903/ 49. What can be done? 50. What can be done? the fully supported paper 51. A paper = a claim (or claims) Thefullrecord that supports that claim should be available for detailed examination and critique We argue in good faith from shared evidence to shared conclusions Lee Smolin http://flickr.com/photos/nicmcphee/2756494307/ 52. Reconstruct the metadata here http://flickr.com/photos/clairity/114084801/ 53. or capture it at the source http://flickr.com/photos/jason_burmeister/2053139930 / 54. in an open notebook http://www.flickr.com/photos/nbachiyski/2186228572/ 55. in an open notebook http://www.flickr.com/photos/nbachiyski/2186228572/ at least one that can be made open later 56. Revolutionary/Evolutionary? 57. Re-evolutionary 58. Gradical change Shirley Wu Re-evolutionary 59. Its just good science 60. Its just good science theyll catch up eventually 61. Curation? 62. networks of events/objects 63. networks of publications Cell Press, Nature Publishing Group, American Chem Soc, American Soc Microbiology, fair use claimed 64. networks of people 65. network of science? 66. http://www.mapofscience.com/ 67. Every object on this network is a moving target 68. http://flickr.com/photos/phauly/16057817/CC-BY-SA Curate the network 69. http://flickr.com/photos/ifindkarma/112531388/ not the objects 70. 71. 72. 73. Even without the object a strong network allows you to reconstruct the meaning 74. We need the tools to readily enable accurate and deep citation 75. 76. Not just papers, but ideas, web pages, data, materials, software 77. 78. And if the cited objects are not open and available? 79. 80. Open content with strong attribution builds and enhances the network 81. Build the tools and build the standards of attribution 82. http://flickr.com/photos/good-karma/710068054/ and (more) open research will follow 83.
