Mixed Media Creative Critical Essay

Mixed Media Creative Critical Essay 1 Network literacy is an applied knowledge, where the best way to understand is to learn through experience. With control of a personal blog, I discovered that only by submerging myself within the realm of networked media could I fully comprehend what it meant to be network literate.2 By creating posts, embedding videos, incorporating folksonomies 3,…

Protocols of the Interwebs

In Alexander Galloway’s extract from the MIT press, he discusses the historical becoming of the internet, the importance and reliance on protocol, and how it all actually works. I realised after the first few pages that even though I spend hours upon hours of my week on the Internet, I wasn’t sure how it developed into what it is today. Even…

Joystick Films – The RC Camera

In last week’s Networked Media symposium, the bulk of discussion surrounded databases. Having already touched on this in a previous post, as well as the topic being a little underwhelming at times, I’ve decided to delve into something else that was mentioned. In 8 years time we could have cars that drive themselves, and remote control camera’s. We will have…

Database and Narrative

The Lev Manovich writing on “Database as Symbolic Form” attempts to answer the question of ‘what is a database?’ It looks at etymology of the term as well as its current uses and associations, and looks at the differences bettwen database and narrative. The reading suggests that a database is a cluster of singular items and is unaffected by narrative.…

Remove Your Friends and Hide Your True Self.

“I find it hilarious how in uni lectures if we’re waiting for the lecturer to arrive, everyone is on their phones, totally silent”. “On the train everyone is just face down, glued to their screen. Surely that is going to have a strange impact on the way we develop.” These sound like statements I’ve made over and over again throughout…

Power and Bacon

80% of crime is committed by 20% of criminals. Intriguing, right? Now you feel compelled to read the rest of this post. It’s all thanks toVilfredo Pareto,an influential Italian economist. After two decades of working as a railway engineer, he eventually turned to investigating the study of economics. One of his most recognisable notations was his discovery of the 80/20…

What’s in the Middle?

Does a network have a centre? The answer is, it depends. What kind of network? What defines a centre? The Internet network has no direct epicentre. It is a correlation of hyperlinks that take you from one site to another. There is no defined beginning or end. It is defined only by the choice of the individual and their interests.…

Shoutouts

I’m continuously impressed with the variety of interesting material that comes out of the Networked Media students’ blogs. It’s great to read the opinions of others, as it triggers me to form my own opinion and actually think about things – something I seldom do. I guess I’m more of a do-er. Take Monique’s latest post for example. She’s created her…

Cobwebs Overtaking Blockbuster

If you haven’t already realised, nobody heads to Blockbuster anymore. Music stores are going out of business. My favourite childhood book store Borders has closed down. We have one thing to blame for this (or thank) – the Internet. The Long Tail by Chris Anderson confirmed my already present ideas about the battle between physical media; CD’s, DVD’s, paper books, and…
