In watching the Jesse Schell video, I thought about how some of his aspects were realistic and unrealistic. Some of the things that were plausible for the future is the live gameplay on the back of cereal boxes or live interaction with a screen and wifi of the coke can. This is great advertisement and…

by Carlos Cuevas 1) Jesse Schell’s presentation about the future of technology was surprisingly disturbing. A lot of the topics he discussed are highly plausible. Disposable technology is becoming increasingly popular because components are decreasing in price. If a point system were ever developed and became mainstream, a point system between everyday activities such as…

The Jesse Schell presentation on bringing gaming into everyday life was quite interesting and somewhat eye-opening. I especially enjoyed his example of fantasy football being a proving point to what he was going to discuss about how easily people become attached to games, which can be as simple or meaningless as fantasy football yet they…

In watching the Jesse Schell video, I definitely thought about how realistic and unrealistic that these sensors and points factor into a person’s life. In finding plausible things with highly advanced technology of the sensors, it is possible for it to happen. I also think it is able to pick up those points. It reminds…

Ashley Villagrana 1) What is plausible about Jesse Schell’s future is that it does sound fun in a economical sense. It does sound possible with technology happening how it is today. Pedometers that earn you activity points on your ipod is actually up and running today. I can see a person getting points for eating…

1)             Jesse Schell in this video brings up a whole slew of different ways that gaming technology is going to affect our physical lives. The most plausible idea that he brings up, I believe, is when he talks about the games on cereal boxes in the beginning of the…

One of the artists who stood out to me in this passage was Roy Lichtenstein. While it is not a New Media artist, he is defined as a “pop artist”. His work utilizes comic strips, manipulating them to a more emphasized effect.  In the picture below, Lichtenstein uses bright colors in order to offset the…

The concept of using data as an art form is not new nor is it exclusive to new media. It’s been found before in mathematics with the idea of fractals as displayed by early computers with added color. The beauty and acidic quality of fractal pieces drew my attention into the world of mathematics where…

The New Media artist I have researched and will present is David Rokeby. He is a Toronto-based artist who began his exhibitions in 1982. Rokeby works primarily with interactive installations and his had his work displayed all over the world. Three works that I focus on is Very Nervous System, Pixel Cube, and Hand-held. I chose…
