7th week summary

This week, first, we saw a last time subject about A.I. and second, this week we learn about HCI(human-computer interaction). HCI key point people often interact with media technologies as though the technologies were people and key point that has implications for the aesthetic, ethics and evaluation of human-computer interaction. HCI related point are ethics, aesthetics & teleology and design.
And we saw a video about history HCI. that video is very fun. and we learned about history of HCI as tools, people. we learned until now about Vannevar Bush's memex, J.C.R. Licklider's computer networking, agents, Ivan Sutherland's sketchpad, Doug Engelbart's mouse, GUI, word processing, etc. Ted Nelson's hypertext, Alan Kay's object-oriented programming, laptops and we saw about history of HCI as tools, systems. about Memex: 1945 (concept), Sketchpad 1963, NLS (oNLine System) - 1963-68, Xerox Alto 1972, Xerox Star 1981, Apple Lisa 1983, Mac 1984, NeXT 1988, Macintosh Powerbook 1991, WWW ~1994. and we talk about where does HCI meet AI?, and history of HCI as tools: funding, Johnstone’s “algorithm”. and ethnomethodology. ethnomethodology definition is the study of the ways in which people make sense of their social world, a fairly recent sociological perspective, founded by the American sociologist Harold Garfinkel in the early 1960s. The main ideas behind it are set out in his book "Studies in Ethnomethodology" (1967). and we saw about brief skipping interesting research topics hci and film 1,2,3. that film are very interesting and funny.
This week study is a very interesting. because, many interesting video! and...... make a like animation. that animation is very interesting! I'll try to make a this like some animation!

6th week summary

Last week, we learned about social networks. as science, as technology, as popular culture, as art. and this week, we learned and talk about artificial intelligence. we lead about 'computing machinery and intelligence' by Alan Turing. who is Alan Turing? he is a founder of computer science, artificial intelligence, mathematician, philosopher, codebreaker, and a gay man. we saw a invent by Alan Turing and his lifetime. and we thinking about artificial intelligence. artificial intelligence definition is a both the intellogece of machines and the branch of comeputer science which aims to create it. another definition is a the science of making machines do things that would require intelligence as if done by humans. and we learned about artificial intelligence as research areas. and we thinking about planning as a technical problem. problem that while there is no universally accepted definition of intelligence, AI researchers have studied several traits that are considered essential, and a problem with ai planning is a the agent can assume that it is the only thing acting on the world and it can be certain what the consequences of its actions may be. however, if this is not true, it must periodically check if the world matches its predictions and it must change its plan as this becomes necessary, requiring the agent to reason under uncertainty. multi agent planning tries to determine the best plan for a community of agent, using cooperation and competition to achieve a given goal. emergent behavior such as this is used by both evolutionary algorithms and swarm intelligence.

this week, we saw a simple movie about A.I, that is..... actually same happen in the future. we have a mid-term test next weekend. I'm worry about test... but in order to receive a good score, I will endeavor.

5th week summary

This week, first, we saw about last time subject and so far key point. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th weeks.. we learned about Hypertext, World Wide Web...and so on. and second, this week we learned about social networks.

This week key points are new media technologies usually reinforce existing social networks or even work to isolate people and when new media technologies facilitate new social networks, they simultaneously challenge existing social, political and economic relationships. we talk many way about social networks. for exemple, as science and technology, popular culture and art. in order to understand a subject easily, we saw some of picture. in the social network as science, history picture by J.L. Moreno (1934) Friendship and kinship (family) studies. circle like same shape, it connects each related with the line. this type of picture, we learned about social network as science with history, equivalence, centrality, bridges, social capital, bowling alone... and so on.

And we saw a social networks as technology. we use a internet. in the internet, we use a search engines, e-mail and webblog! hmm... when thought it tries, also this blog is a social network! also, e-mail is a social network. look around, we find a many thing about social networks. and so many picture about social network as art. some picture of art that is bottom picture.

we use internet many time. using a internet, we saw a many social network. but we don't recognize. frankly, I don't recognize some... cyworld! and e-mail! and webblog! about social network. we learned about social network. so think about social network many time. next time, we will learn about artificial intelligence. What is mean a artificial intelligence??

4th week summary

This week, First! we saw so far key point. every week, we saw a last subject and key point. for example, Hypertext, Media.. and so on. so we think about with this week key point relationship with so far key point.
Second! we learned World Wide Web(WWW)!. we always using a internet, so WWW is a very intimate word. this week key point is 'People make media and then media make people'. and we learn the Nam June Paik art. he is master of the Korean world of art. and this is a question and answer in about WWW. It learned this week class.

-who is tim berners-lee?
He called father of Internet, world wide web. he is invent a www and html, http.

-what is the www?
It called another word W3. the world wide web(www) is a hypertext connected system.

and this answer learnd this week class.
answer 1 : a collaboratively authored hypertext
answer 2 : it is a standard

–what are URIs, universal resource identifiers?
URI(universal resource identifier) is a Internet address which is only it shows a resources. URI existence as the primary requirement which is demanded from the Internet stick always in internet protocol.

–what is HTML, the hypertext markup language?
HTML is a system of codes for producing documents for the Internet. HTML is an abbreviation for 'hypertext markup language'.

–what is HTTP, the hypertext transfer protocol?
HTTP is a way of formatting and transmitting messages on the Internet. HTTP is an abbreviation for 'hypertext transfer protocol'.

-what is the international standards organization (ISO)?
ISO is a network of national standards institutes from 145 countries working in partnership with international organizations, governments, industry, business and consumer representatives. It acts as a bridge between public and private sector. It has created over 12,000 standards.

-what is the internet engineering task force (IETF)?
It is a board of inquiry of the United States IAB (Internet Architecture Board) which develops the internet standard for the using which the Internet is smooth.
A large open international community of network designers, operators, vendors, and researchers concerned with the evolution of the Internet architecture and the smooth operation of the Internet. It is open to any interested individual.

-what is a request for comments (RFC)?
From the IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force), It is an official document publication which provides process etc. it is necessary to it embodies a technique from the Internet.

This week subject is a WWW. It is very intimate, so it is easy to understanded. and Nam June Paik art is a very crative! it is so interesting. next week class, I try to the understand about social networks.

3rd week summary

This week, we are only one class. first, we saw a last week class subject once again. and we learn this week hypertext. last week subject and this week subject is a relationship. Hypertext is One way that digital media has been understood is as new forms of writing, reading and thinking.
this class we are two key point. first, when a medium is new, it is often used to simulate old media. second, new media do not replace old media, they displace them.
Tristan Tzara's? we learn about 'To make a dadaist poem'. he write the poem this process. take a newspaper, take a pair of scissors, choose an article as long as you are planning to make your poem, cut out the article, then cut out each of the words that make up this article and put them in a bag, shake it gently, then take out the scraps one after the other in the order in which they left the bag, copy conscientiously. and we are view about example “cut-ups”. "cut-ups" is a... similar to hypertext! hypertext and cut-up principal is a similary! so we are view about "cut-up" video.
And Who is Engelbart?? maybe Engelbart is a computer's god! he made a mouse, 2d display editing, hypermedia & hypermedia email, multiple window displays.. and so on. and he is inventor of hypertext. he gets inspiration from Bush's treatise "As we may think." he made a many useful things today. Especially, Mouse is a very useful invention. Think! Using a computer without Mouse!
um... this week, I don't understand focus. It is confused. Last week subject and this week subject are similary...so it is confused. frankly.. lead a book is a very very difficult. especially, this week so many books. so I don't understand. next time try to understand perfectly.

2nd week summary

This week, we read two books and discussed contents.

we lead Sandy Stone's “Welcome to the present” and Vannevar Bush’s “As we may think.”

"Welcome to the present" means, present digital media technology is developing and developing, but The technique which is developed becomes more distant from present. we discuss a seperate and connect by digital media. media is connect people to people, and seperate people to people. media is a embody many things. so we are think, media is medium. when discuss a seperate and connect, we use egg. and car.

"As we may think." by Vannevar Bush’s. Vannevar Bush’s lived a lot of information without arranged. He need to arrange it. so he made Memex. Memex use associative indexing. This like today hyperlink. he has a creative think! so professor has many question for student 'what is the creative think?' this book title "As we may think" is.... um.. like that as we may think!

this week two books are very difficult.... read and read...but that's like Alien language!
I don't understand(ㅜ_ㅜ).... and professor asked a question to me.. but I don't answer.(ㅜ_ㅜ)
but professor explane books contents and it endeavors that I reads the book, next I'm answer the question.
