University of the Future
Internationalism, innovation, diversity – the new Campus WU is the concrete realization of WU’s vision for a modern university. The fundamental principles of the new architecture reflect the values and ideas we cherish at WU.
As a public institution, WU has lived up to its responsibility of building its new campus in an economical, ecological, and socially sustainable manner. WU’s decision to locate the new campus in Vienna’s second district will redefine this area and transform it into an educational hub. We have not only constructed new buildings, but in the process we have also given concrete realization to our ideas of what the university of the future should look like. The new campus is more than just a place for academic research and teaching and learning practical skills; it is also designed to create a new space for social, cultural, and political life.
The imposing Library & Learning Center (LC), designed by the Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid, is a testament to the central importance of research and teaching at WU. The Library & Learning Center is surrounded by five building complexes, including the Teaching Center, which houses most of WU’s auditoriums. The Teaching Center is intended mainly for bachelor degree students, while the master degree programs are taught primarily in the individual Department buildings. The Executive Academy building is the home of continuing education and life-long learning programs. In this way, the various buildings and their functions reflect the three tiers of teaching and learning represented by the Bologna Process.
WU’s Department-based organizational structure was also a contributing factor. In the past, the various Institutes that make up the Departments were scattered across different locations. Now they have been brought together in four Department buildings, which will make life much easier for both students and faculty.
These are not the only improvements the new campus has to offer: All rooms have natural light, and the auditoriums feature state-of-the-art teaching equipment, including digital whiteboards. There are 3,000 student workplaces, three times as many as in the old buildings in Vienna’s ninth district. These workplaces are located not only in the dedicated self-study areas, but also in project rooms that can be booked by teaching staff and students alike. They cater to different needs by providing quiet spots for focused academic work as well as opportunities for work on group projects in communicationfriendly study areas.
The top priority in planning the new campus was to create an environment for WU students and staff that is conducive to productive work and communication.
Not only the buildings themselves, but also the surrounding grounds offer plenty of opportunities for communication and meeting people. 55,000 m² of Campus WU’s total 100,000 m² of floor and surface area is open, publicly accessible space. Fences or barriers would contradict our vision of an open campus.
Visitors and area residents are more than welcome at Campus WU. The campus offers not only food for thought, but also restaurants, cafés, and shops, all in a stimulating architectural environment.
As different as they may look, however, the buildings are all based on the same overall technical concept: the building infrastructure is standardized in terms of construction, energy supply, ventilation, and sanitary facilities. The entire campus has been designed in accordance with “green building” principles. Much of the required energy is obtained using geothermal energy from groundwater.
Another key feature of Campus WU is barrier-free accessibility. All auditoriums are specially equipped for people with disabilities, all areas are designed to be wheelchair accessible, and the campus also features a tactile guidance system for the visually impaired.
We have not only made sure to comply with all relevant legal guidelines, but we have also drawn on experience gained from best practice examples. WU aims to play a pioneering role – in all respects.

This is going to be the start of a series of photos I intend to make that define different words. For this image, I selected "Value" and felt that using simple US bills would be inadequate; thus, I found someone that was willing to let me hold a fraction of their valuables to photograph. Instead of shooting it on the available concrete, I took off my black bandanna, laid it on the ground, and waited for a cloud to give the right lighting(the sun was horrible).
Public debate on the topic “Non-formal education is more valued on the labor market than formal education”, screening of the documentary films “The laboratory of success – Romaverzitas” and “Roma, participants in the National Liberation War”, authored by the famous Roma journalist, actor and showman Ramush Muarem - Cirko, creation of a comic book entitled “Non-formal vs. Formal Education“, designed by Roma students, and discussion on the topic of discrimination and inclusion of the Roma community are part of the activities which IDEA Southeast Europe and Romaverzitas organized for the celebration of 8th of April, “International Roma Day”.

Respect. The third of the Army Values. Treat people as they should be treated. In the Soldier’s Code, we pledge to “treat others with dignity and respect while expecting others to do the same.” Respect is what allows us to appreciate the best in other people. Respect is trusting that all people have done their jobs and fulfilled their duty. And self-respect is a vital ingredient with the Army value of respect, which results from knowing you have put forth your best effort. The Army is one team and each of us has something to contribute.

A Perplexing Lesson in Aesthetics and Exchange Value Took Place on Jersey Street And Then On East Houston in Lower Manhattan.
It all began on Jersey Street, which is an alley between Lafayette and Crosby Streets in Lower Manhattan, on May 4th 2008. As I was heading home I saw two large paintings resting up against a wall. Nobody was around so I assumed that they were being discarded. Upon closer inspection I saw that they had been executed on fine heavy linen and that the stretchers were professionally made. The pictures themselves were representational and very well done in a contemporary manner. I guessed that they were originally destined for display and sale in a high end gallery, but somehow never made the grade. But why were they being tossed out? What was the back story? I never learned anything more about their origins but I did learn a lot about of puzzling things about aesthetics and exchange value.
I ran home to get my camera to document " art on the street' rather than " street Art " but by the time I returned one painting had already vanished. I got some shots of the remaining canvas. What had begun life as a work of art had morphed into street trash just like that. It was then that I began to wonder why some perfectly good pictures are worth millions of dollars and others nothing at all? Why are some oustanding pictures in museums, Galleries and important private collections while others which are of high merit are consigned to the garbage dump? Of course I knew that some paintings are considered better than others , but that can't be the whole story because everyone knows that tastes and standards change and that often forgotten works come back into vogue.
On the other hand the two paintings on Jersey Street were utterly worthless or they wouldnot have been so rudely discarded. What magical process of exchange value made these two pictures worthless while others were valued at many millions of dollars? I wondered what place aesthetic value had in all of these arcane transformations and transactions? Did aesthetics matter at all or was it all clever marketing and promotion? What made one painting a treasure and another one trash?
Then I was off to East Houston Street at the corner of the Bowery to photograph a newly painted replica of an old Keith Haring mural, now long gone, which graced the same spot many years ago. I got some good shots and after I finished I stopped off at Billy's Antique and Prop shop which was only a few steps away. Billy always had something interesting to look at and to photograph and today he did not disappoint. There, outside his shop were the two paintings from Jersey Street. How did they get to Billy's? Were they now for sale? I was told by Billy's assistant that they had just been purchased from a street picker for $ 5.00 each. And so they were no longer worthless trash , but once again art objects, albeit of modest value. Nevertheless a second magical transformation had taken place. The two pictures had morphed back into works of art which had some aesthetic value. Of course they were starting out at the low end, but that they were starting out there can be no doubt.
What did the street picker know? Was he some sort of shabby magician who could turn lead into gold or in this case worthless trash into money? He certainly must have been.
Now that both pictures were reestablished as art the sky was the limit. They were priced at $150 each.
What had really taken place in this perplexing series of transformations? Was art nothing more than a commodity? It certainly seemed so. Is all the high brow talk about aesthetic, cultural and spiritual value just so much hot air used by snake oil salesmen to puff up the value of this or that work of art? Were art critics nothing more than hired flacks ? Was there no fundamental difference between a work of art and the magic words of some snake oil salesman disguised as a critic or a clever dealer?
Was that what happened to works which were now worth millions of dollars while the two pictures I saw on Jersey Street had nobody to promote them and thus they turned into trash? Was the lack of hype and spin responsible for turning them into rubbish? It certainly seemed so. Am I missing something vital here? If so I would like to know.
Great Service. Great Value. Highly Recommend
Our garage door spring snapped, leaving our garage door half-open. I called several local vendors to get pricing. While others put me in voicemail, Tom answered the phone right away. His price was substantially less than anyone in town. While he did not have the part in stock, he drove to Puyallup the same day, picked up the spring, and came to my home within hours. Instead of just giving me the spring, he installed it for me in a matter of minutes, made the adjustments, and had it working again in no time. Tom was not only very knowledgeable, he was very personable, and made me feel like I was his best customer. In addition to garage doors, we also talked about replacing our front entry door, hollow-core interior doors, and trim. Tom is very service oriented, conscientious, and provides outstanding value. His company name is catchy-too. I would highly recommend I Know a Guy Garage Doors.

The explosion of content on the Internet has many media companies racing to experiment with new forms of media and tackling ever more complex modes of distribution across myriad devices. But a lingering question for many media companies is around how to apply technologies to digitize and exploit archival content. Whether video, photography, or text, many of New York’s biggest media companies are grappling with how to take advantage of what seems a huge opportunity.
To dig deeper and get a sense of how NYC’s major players were contending with this issue, we gathered a panel to share their perspectives during our Internet Week event, The Value in the Vault, hosted at Shutterstock the evening of May 22. The panel included Jim Chou, CTO at Shutterstock; Marc Frons, CIO at The New York Times; Mona Jimenez, Associate Arts Professor and Associate Director, Moving Image Archiving and Preservation Program at NYU Tisch; Owen Rambow, Co-Chair, New Media Center, Institute for Data Sciences and Engineering at Columbia University; and Dirk Van Dall, VP, Multimedia Technology Development at Major League Baseball Advanced Media.
