If ‘all things equally exist‘, why is it that ‘they do not exist equally‘? We began by listing our perceptions and at it’s simplest, what we truly noticed. Individually, everyone was different in what they observed, articulating their mornings, dislikes and views in a list format happily at the class. It came apparent quite quickly, […]
Our studio began with I, a list of questions. At first glance, they all assumed it was simple, that what I was asking was a matter of their own perspective. ‘What do we know? What don’t we know?’ A little hesitant, everyone twitched in their places, reflecting back to the reading and admitting the context […]
Firstly, there are two things you should know about me. 1.) I like minimalism. 2.) I like messiness. When it comes to semantics (and purposes), these two parts of me are oppositional, but only in the nature of their existence. Much like the reading and Kitchener, Davis’s, and Kuhn’s approaches, these two parts of me […]
Everyone’s on the field, but nobody really knows the game. We stretch slowly with creased foreheads, shuffling while the warm-up feels too long. Adrian’s looking at the rulebook, but he smiles and shrugs. Reflecting on the studio, it was one large warm up for ‘the big game.’ Building team skills, becoming familiar and responding in […]

The final symposium for Networked Media focused on protocol and the issues of technology and social etiquette. The conversation itself was pulled between theory based learning and application, making points on such references like TAFE, workplace exchanges and IP addresses.

There’s been a lot of quality music coming out lately, so I’d thought I’d throw together a short mix for such a lovely, sunny day! Bringing you some of the tastiest tracks, I may be a bit bias on what constitutes a good time on Soundcloud, but give it a shot. Happy Sunday fellow bloggers! […]
This weekend was the first time I have published an interview and let me tell you, it was an awesome feeling. Not only was I graced with the talented Becky Sui Zhen, but also given my own little personal shoutout through Facebook thanks to her. As strange as it sounds to write, I am trying […]
This week’s reading was full of jargon relative in understanding technology and the upside down system of the Internet. While the term protocol is not a new word, it’s adaption to computer behaviour has changed it’s conventions by broadening the behaviour of networks and systems. In essence, ‘protocols [now] refer specifically to standards governing the implementation […]
In other music news, Alice Glass took to Twitter last night announcing the break-up of Crystal Castles. ‘Although this is the end of the band‘, she wrote, ‘I hope my fans will embrace me as a solo artist in the same way they have embraced Crystal Castles.’ Of course, Alice, but I still wasn’t over the […]
