Genealogy of Quasi-object: Prelude for Theory of Digital Object

It is significant to consider objects. From the early enlightenment movement, we began to consider objects on the basis of nature-society dichotomy, from which some singular “quasi-natural” and “quasi-object” generated. Serres and Latour, the contemporary French thinkers, by theory of ANT, constructed quasi-objects composed of acteurs, however Latour neglected the dimension of totality, which led his theory towards contemporary Lebnizism. Simondon, instead, based on individuation and embodiment of objects through an associated milieu, developed the problem of modern technological object. Then Latour and Simondon provide for us an important theoretical foundation from different perspectives, by which, digital objects could be considered not only as a translator in ANT, but individuation in associated milieu, that is, a new model of quasi-object, which finally makes it possible for us to understand digital objects.     

Women's Musical Lives: Self-Managing a Freelance Career

While opportunities for women have certainly improved and they are far better represented today in a range of music sectors, Creative and Cultural Skills (2010) found that women occupy only 32.2% of all music industry related jobs, they earn less, give up their careers sooner and experience more barriers to progression than their male counterparts. It has been shown that while ‘creative labour’ can be rewarding and fulfilling it is also a source of (self-) exploitation, is insecure, involves long hours, entails working for low or no pay, through the gifting of free labour, requires high levels of commitment from a normatively younger worker and results in bulimic patterns of work. It appears that the contested nature of creative work may have particular implications for female freelance musicians but, hitherto, very little critical attention has been paid to their experiences. Using an innovative methodological approach combining visual social research methods and digital ethnography, this paper presents the findings of an exploratory study into the working lives of five professional female musicians based in London and the South West of England. It examines the nature of their work and seeks to understand how freelance careers are experienced, supported and developed. The findings suggest that this is often contingent on the context of the work, its purpose, the types of work the musicians undertake and the meanings they attribute to their various musical activities.

数字图书馆建设与服务中的著作权问题探析

数字图书馆在建设与服务过程中,可能会遇到有关数字化转化、数据库的开发、信息资源的上载、下载、连接等一系列著作权问题,应遵循有关法律,合理利用,最大限度地满足读者的信息需求。     

计算机入侵动态取证技术研究

计算机取证是打击计算机犯罪的有效手段,传统的计算机取证大多采用事后分析的静态取证技术,证据的采集不够及时、全面,经恢复的数据可能是已经被篡改,因而法律效力低。可以运用一种将计算机取证技术与入侵检测技术结合的入侵动态取证系统,动态收集识别入侵证据,及时分析、提取证据至证据库中保存。此系统采用认证、加密、隔离等安全手段,确保了证据在传送、保存过程中的真实性、准确性及不可篡改性,使其成为有效的法庭证据,实现了计算机取证的及时性、智能性。     

公共管理视角下的国有资产管理体制改革

当前,我国国有资产管理体制存在的问题在于:国有资产管理仍过多地介入私人产品的生产和提供,国有资产管理考核的绩效指标背离公共利益,产权界定模糊容易引发地区利益冲突。国有资产管理体制改革需要分离政府的“运动员”与“裁判员”角色,对营利性资产和非营利性资产实行分类管理制度,强化非营利性国有资产管理的制度建设。
