notes from tutorial November 8, 2010.
Before the tutorial with aymeric, I was considering the different interests that I have,
and how to clarify what are the places where magical thinking comes into place in relation
to technology, also which subjects am I particularly interested in. One approach would be
observing elements of magical belief and elements of technological usage, finding the possible common points.
Things to use when writing:
- Describe the project and the desired outcome
- describe some previous projects
- describe what you want to do
- describe why you want to do it
- describe how you intend to achieve it
- describe the success criteria for this project
If I focus on new magical thinking, or a magical understanding of technology, the goal of this project would be to try and find a way of implementing it into my interest of navigating through information layers in the city.
Some things to look at:
cloud as a metaphor for mystifying data
tantalum chemical components in devices
i-phone suicides
Graham Harwood and his work on hardware energy
- taking the starting point of repairmen isn't the best analogy for products getting more closed, because it invokes the idea of "good old times" and doesn't show the true picture
