Summary of last class 3

Wednesday - Friday (03.26- 03.28)

"WWW"

This week's main idea was 'WWW(World Wide Web)'.
It is important to define the meaning of the "www". It has two meanings. The first one is "a collaboratively authored hypertest". And the second one is "a standard".I think standard is pretty significant. Because there is heterogeneous network in it. I mean if we want to keep the diversity and develop it, we need to follow the kind of rules. This principle can be applied in our daily life. Morover, I stronly believe that the standard should be based on the "agreement". It is related to not minor, but majority. we can't imagine that the standard includes minor's thinking. Anyway, the www is very convinient way to interact lots of things each other especially, human knowlege and graphical interface.

Also, In this class, the most important key point is 'People make media and then media make people'. We use this project everday and every time so I thinkl it is a great and useful project.

"Hypertext"

Keypoints of this week are: When a medium is new, it is often used to simulate old media.
New media do not replace old media, they displace them. (both of these points are paraphrases of ideas from Marshall McLuhan’s book Understanding Media.)
This week's focus is Hypertext.
Hypertext is One way that digital media has been understood is as new forms of writing, reading and thinking.
The moment I saw it, I stare in wonder.And we learned computing of the 1960s.–standard computer i/o of the 1960s was hollerith cards and paper printouts–standard computer-human interaction of the 1960s was batch processing–Ivan Sutherland’s MIT Dissertation, the Sketchpad system (1963)–MIT Project MAC’s Compatible Time-Sharing System (1961) and later the Multiplexed Information and Computing Service (1969)Engelbart invented mouse, windows, e-mail, and the word processor.
Engelbart's narrative strategies is①“graphic vision”/science fiction narrated in the second person②reporting style③personal reflection④speculative voice⑤demo(don’t forget the demo, the strongest rhetoric in new media)
(Comment)
I think his voice is very attractive.I want to attractive voice.If We invent technology, it have to put to practical use.So, We have to power of persuasion.

"welcome to the present"

There are two important key points of this week.
One is the digital media techonologies connect or separate people and another is that technologies embody social, political, cultural, economic and philosophical dieas and realationships. And we talked about egg for art material connect from another material to place painted.
I saw some pictures and explains connect or separate by power point system. Power point system is very interesting and Yoon professor's explanation too.
But study which it does with English in me is difficult.


"As We May Think"

Vannevar bush designed for MEMEX.
MEMEX is very amazing. It is very similar with technique of today.
Bush's stated motivation is the method. Bush made the Memex because the way of collecting and of compressing data is hard when people have lots of note for study besides he wants to find the data faster and easier what he exactly need. And Bush was trying to solve the problem which suppose the idea were not enough. And Memex is help to scientist when they keep their own data. Also it helps people.
The index which is able to move to move, it like as the WWW.
Memex is the beginning of arranging the data and developing the information techonology. I really surprise the Structure of MEMEX.

(Comment)
I'm embarrassed in last class. Because I didn't read which text.
But the study contents is interest. Vannevar bush's Idea is very interesting and amazing.
But the study which it does still with English in me is difficult.
