Dear Mark,<br>
<br>
thanks for your inspiring and indeed provocative presentation.<br>
Just some few remarks/questions about:<br>
1) was it since the 16th and 17th century also a nationalistic issue
when claiming who was the first one to have done a 'discovery' and
is it in a different way still today? Do you know of any analysis on
this?<br>
2) You describe the changes of _scientific_ publication and
particularly the issue of journals that have to do with the shorter
time of 'discoveries' (journals=jours=days) with the rise of modern
empirical science. Where is the difference with regard to the
humanities and literature? The role of copyright (including patents)
is, as you know, changing and you point to this indirectly at the
end of your video presentation which I very much share. But the
economic (and national?) power of big players is still there,
creating scarcity in a time of (potential) digital abundance of
'information'<br>
3) A few months ago I wrote a paper (in Spanish) on: "What is a
scientific journal?" with similar insights to the ones you present<br>

<pre wrap="">Dear FIS Colleagues,
To kick-start the discussion on scientific publishing, I have prepared
a short (hopefully provocative) video. It can be found at:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Bh3vqM98-U">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Bh3vqM98-U</a>
(if anyone's interested, the software I used for producing it is
called 'Videoscribe')
I have also produced a paper which is attached.
I hope you find these interesting and stimulating!
Best wishes,
Mark
