      Marken im Metaverse

      Chancen und Risiken. Best and Worst Cases. Herausforderungen und Lösungen

      Dieses essential zeigt, wie strategisch und konzeptionell ein Markenauftritt im Metaverse entwickelt werden muss und was es dafür braucht. Die Vorgehensweise wird an vier realen Beispielen konkret illustriert. Kaum ein Thema wird gerade so kontrovers wie das Web 3.0 und seine Metaversen diskutiert. Täglich wächst die Zahl der Publikationen, Veranstaltungen und Produkte, die sich damit beschäftigen sowie auch die Zahl der Unternehmen, die auf keinen Fall den abfahrenden Zug verpassen wollen. Mindestens genauso groß ist aber die Zahl derer, die das Ganze für sinnlos ausgegebenes Marketingbudget halten. Es wird Zeit, Licht ins Dunkel der unendlichen Weiten des Web 3.0 zu bringen, Grundlagen und Begriffe zu erklären, Wege und Chancen aufzuzeigen, aber auch laut und deutlich vor den Risiken und Fehlern zu warnen.

      "The Tetralemma" is the tale of a young scientific polymath who, having achieved sudden wealth in the computer industry, enjoys encounters with various Buddhists, LSD, a journey through India, a Burmese vihara, wisdom-bearing damsels, a Tibetan lama, acquires a Buddhist name, ends up in Kyoto chanting the Heart Sutra, realizes an enlightenment and returns to America wondering what to do with his secular self. Described as a serio-comic tour through modern Buddhism, the story illustrates how life's completely random encounters causally create a chain-of-events on the meaning of silent words in one's mind and of thought, of consciousness, of chance and necessity, philosophical emptiness, the "middle-way", psychedelic chemicals, mathematics, neuroscience, enlightenment, machine intelligence, and once again the absolute indispensable future of sex.

      "The personal and professional life of Bruno Kreisky (1911-1990), Austria's long-serving Socialist chancellor from August 1970 to May 1983, has been the focus of many books and articles. However, his ambiguous and complex relationship to his Jewishness, the State of Israel, and Zionism, as well as his connections to his overall political project and global aspirations, remain only partially researched. This book studies and analyzes these more systematically and comprehensively and places Kreisky in a comparative perspective with other twentieth-century European Jewish politicians who attained similar pinnacles of power. At the same time, the book will show that Bruno Kreisky was among the most influential and controversial political leaders since World War II. The book revolves around understanding and illuminating the myriad ways in which Kreisky's Jewishness was-or was not-a formative factor in his treatment of "Jewish" questions within Austrian politics, Austrian-Israeli relations, and his active engagement in Middle Eastern affairs. This deeper understanding mainly emerges through examining Kreisky's actions during several pivotal events like the Kreisky-Peter-Wiesenthal affair, the Waldheim affair, the 1973 Marchegg incident, and his overall relationship to Zionism, the State of Israel, and the Palestinian Arab world. This book is not a comprehensive biography of Kreisky. Instead, it attempts to document and place Kreisky's fraught engagement with his Jewishness and the related sensitive issues that touched upon it in a historical, political, ideological, and personal context. This mainly comes down to the entangled and always-ambiguous politics of identity, especially his understanding of his Jewishness"-- Provided by publisher
