NEW MEDIA & LITERATURE: Updates
Probably won’t be posting much on New Media, since we’ve developed into teams, which is really the basis for any new media applications, and it wouldn’t be fair to give one view of a five-person effort. Did get the books … Continue reading Continue reading
NEW MEDIA: Exercise 3 – The Window
In this exercise, we examined three different visual spaces, to help understand static and dynamic content. We first looked at a projected image of the Mona Lisa painting, then looked out a window, then were happily let outside to play. … Continue reading Continue reading

REALITY & NEW MEDIA: The Faucet’s Story
Brushing teeth, watching the water running out the faucet (note, that I do try to shut the faucet off in between, while my husband lets it run at full blast—a source of minor irritation). Bored and gazing out the bathroom … Continue reading Continue reading
BLOGGING & NEW MEDIA: Grey Windy Words
…or maybe not. Methinks ’twill be a boring blogging day today. Between the mundane framing of images*, I need as well to write an exercise for the New Media class–and this, I fear, although I’ll post it as a link … Continue reading Continue reading
REALITY & NEW MEDIA: Opening Doors
Love to watch the backyard in a battle with the wind. Trees, their rain-heavy heads bow and swerve in all directions; an audience in final throes of prayer meetin’, led by a fiery Reverend Storm. I stand just inside the … Continue reading Continue reading
REALITY & NEW MEDIA: 1000 Angels Dancing on the Head of a Pin
Looking up at my panorama piece of sky, my personal view that no one else but me can see. It is not large, but still it’s cut in half by horizontal flight; a teeny tiny eighth-inch gleaming silver spark of … Continue reading Continue reading
REALITY & NEW MEDIA: Morning Revealed in Inches (Prelude to the Window Exercise #3)
Goodness me; am I to go around applying new media principles even to my simple morning cigarette routine in the dark garage? Going out a bit later this morning (oh, all right; my second cigarette!) it was lighter as the … Continue reading Continue reading

NEW MEDIA: Devil in a Red Dress (Readerly/Writerly)
Perhaps the reason that I’ve put this post off since last night is that in trying to organize my thoughts, I’ve gotten bogged down with coming at it from all angles: —–> Reader reading readerly written text —–> Reader reading … Continue reading Continue reading

BLOGGING & NEW MEDIA: Interface
I visit my personalized (variability) Typepad home page several times during the day. With posting, editing, getting to Spinning to connect with those not available through Bloglines, some stat checking, etc. I can use the “back door” plain entry that … Continue reading Continue reading
NEW MEDIA: Transcoding
Along with Sister Mary Winword as an example of transcoding, we should place Clippy, perhaps better in his alias of “The Genius” (whom I used when I first started with Windows 2000 and called “Albert” before I got tired of … Continue reading Continue reading

NEW MEDIA: Existence Update
Checked the garage this morning; sat for a few minutes and looked around. Visually, I still wasn’t there. By virtue of cultural coding, I was able to maneuver within the space, leave and enter an area where the light revealed … Continue reading Continue reading

NEW MEDIA: Sister Mary Winword
How’s this for transcoding (a blend of human and computer), although not graphically accurate: Winword’s little Spelling & Grammar Tool taking the place of your second-grade nun cracking a ruler on your knuckles every time you misspelled a word. Those … Continue reading Continue reading

NEW MEDIA: Thinking on Writerly/Readerly
I feel like a server on a DSL or cable line. Always open to the thoughts flying around out there, and some stimuli acts like a cursor that clicks it onscreen. Yet I can’t focus on something when called upon, … Continue reading Continue reading

NEW MEDIA & LITERATURE: And, a connection in reality
Before I go any further, please allow me this: I smoked in class today—NYAH-NYAH-NYAH-NYAH-NYASH! (No that’s not a typo, it’s a Polish nyah. Between classes I pulled out my copy of Ploughshares (Fall, 2004, Vol. 30, Nos. 2 & 3) … Continue reading Continue reading
