NEW MEDIA: Life Imitating Art

July 8th, 2007 by Susan


More a case of the old updating to adapt to new methods.  In watching (half-ass, I’m not that into it) the races on tv this afternoon, I’ve noticed that it looks exactly like my home page selection on my computer.

There are modules that are related and yet not.  At one point, on the right half of the screen was the commercial, the left half split again with the upper showing the race, the bottom showing the statistics.  Along the top, just like the stock exchange ticker tape ran the driver positions.

At another time, there is a three-way screen showing the same scene from different camera angles.

Funny, I used to figure why would anyone want to watch tv shows on their computer?  Now it looks like I’m watching computer graphics on the tv.
