Adrian discussed about database base on the reading. basically database is a collection of information stored within a system, it’s in a form of a list, it is limitless, and is retrieved based on demand. Our blog is a good example for that, our post is part of the database and it shows up when […]

Can’t believe its week 10 already, just two more week to go! This week symposium Adrian and the rest of the tutor discussed how to make the final essay. They advised us to do in the reverse cone instead of the usual cone. Normally we use the ‘normal cone’ where we started the essay broadly […]

I enjoyed the symposium from yesterday, It is very clarifying and make my head less spin. Previous symposium always answers question but in the end generates more confusion than the actual getting answers. But Yesterday symposium is much easier to understand as the tutors explained how they take the reading and how they interpreted it. […]

Have you ever tried of touching wind? Do you feel the frustration when you touch nothing? Thats what I feel today, Adrian symposium is super confusing.

I have to say today symposium is both interesting and complicated at the […]

This week we look deeper into the reading we have done. One of the things discussed is about the validity of stuff and information we found in the internet. There are numbers of way to check whether the information we are looking at is valid or not, personally I try to look on a trusted […]

–          Materials : Books/Films/ Music – the way it is linear, shapes our perception and understanding about beginning, middle, and end. They have beginning and end because they have edges, eg. book has cover.  How about blog that has no edge? Blog do not have beginning or end because it’s ‘shape’ has no edges. Posts within blog […]

Today I found that the content my lecturer, Adrian, talked about was quite confusing, philosophical, and very deep. He was talking about materials and how it matters, about understanding things is crucial to using certain items which in my minds sort of links to how useless if we have a car but don’t know how […]
