we learned about media resistance. resistance is tactics and means to oppose the strategies of “The Prince” e.g., while the prince tries to “divide and conquer,” the resistance tries to overcome the imposed isolation countering the techniques and “technologies of power” (cf., Foucault) that impose isolation, distraction and domination through surveillance, entertainment, and force
and we realized virus. virus is A cracker program that searches out other programs and `infects' them by embedding a copy of itself in them, so that they become {Trojan Horse}s. When these programs are executed, the embedded virus is executed too, thus propagating the `infection'.
in this proof, we knew Robert Morris, a 23 year old computer science graduate student at Cornell, brought the Internet to a virtual stop in 1988 with a “worm.” He was the first person prosecuted under the 1986 Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. Now, MIT professor.
comment
this time was last class. so I heard very very completely.
software and virus etc... I listen carefully it.
next time is final exam. I will get good score.

that day, we saw the privacy and public. today's privacy and public is relative to many kinds of things.
privacy means the quality or state of being apart from company or observation, SECLUSION: freedom from unauthorized intrusion (one's right to privacy)
and public contains privacy. so privacy can effect on public, public can effect on privacy.
in this situation, surveillance appears this subject. surveillance is supervising something.
in addition, nowadays technology develops so much that surveillance turn high-tech. for example, fingerprint, cctv, electric bracelet. these are appear modern history.
today, everyone use the internet. and internet and web are the form of express one's thinking. for instance, cyworld is famous for us. people inpur their diary, picture and so on.
data mining
this concept derive from elaboration. In general, data mining efforts are directed toward the generation of rules for the classification of objects.
These objects might be people who are assigned to particular classes or categories, such as “that group of folks who tend to make impulse buys from those displays near the check out counters at the supermarket.”
comment
I like this kind of subject. because I express my opinion more and more deeply. and privacy and public.. these are important to us. but danger of privacy would be afraid.
however, technology and persons's mind will solve these problem.

A cyborg is a cybernetic organism (i.e., an organism that has both artificial and natural systems). The term was coined in 1960 when Manfred Clynes and Nathan Kline used it in an article about the advantages of self-regulating human-machine systems in outer space.
D. S. Halacy's Cyborg: Evolution of the Superman in 1965 featured an introduction by Manfred Clynes, who wrote of a "new frontier" that was "not merely space, but more profoundly the relationship between 'inner space' to 'outer space' -a bridge...between mind and matter." The cyborg is often seen today merely as an organism that has enhanced abilities due to technology, but this perhaps oversimplifies the category of feedback.

Donna Haraway is a Professor of Feminist Theory and Technoscience at the European Graduate School in Saas-Fee, Switzerland
comment
I think cyborg is so far from realism. because that will not become truly. and if it comes to us, that will be very fantastic.
human's brain replace robot, and human's body replace another robot..
it is so cool that I can't imagine. but I hope technology develop more and more and all world improve together.

today's key point is game. this field is my favorite field. game has physics, graphics and many kind of simulation.
and what makes the game good? the professional says story, realism, play, and somethings. I agree that these are important. and then they make game more funny.
the more develop game, the more addict people. this is social problem. one concentrate only computer game. so they are crazy in after that.
Identification is known to psycho-analysis as the earliest expression of an emotional tie with another person.
It plays a part in the early history of the Oedipus complex. A little boy will exhibit a special interest in his father. he would like to grow like him and be like him, and take his place everywhere.
We may say simply that he takes his father as his ideal.
And someone says game has gender. I think that is not fair. for example, a job turn in nowadays. that is same in game. there is nothing to game. girls can play sudden attack and boy can play other many game.

comment
I think this subject is cool.
game is relative with media. specially, multimedia. and game has many good things. but if someone addict one game, this is not good .
so I have one hope to game will develop step by step.

in this time we learned about computer aid. computer aid is common for us.
key point is
"every digital media technology has an architecture using diagrams to compare physical architectures with digital architectures."
and people use CAD, CAM and so on. it means people want sophisticated product. so cad and cam is great for architect. it is accurate.
in mainly, architectures are relative with media, people, computer. dr.yoon everyday says People make media and then media make people. so people draw the many lines, connect the lines.
surveillance is the close watch kept over someone or something. the panopticon is the history of surveillance. and It was the dream of a transparent society, visible and legible in each of its parts, the dream of there no longer existing any zones of darkness, zones established by the privileges of royal power or the prerogatives of some corporation by Michel Foucault.
comment
in first I think this subject is very common and easy for me. but it is very hard. but I was fun because I have learned CAD in middle school student. I made house's room in CAD. so I was very delight.
it helped me so much in now.

last week, we had mid-term test. and today we learned many things.
the key point is People often interact with media technologies as though the technologies were people.
related point is ethics, aesthetics , teleology and design.
And we learned about the history of HCI.
history of HCI as tools: people- for example, as we know, Vannevar Bush's memex. and Doug Engelbart's mouse, GUI, word processing, etc.
history of HCI as tools: systems- Memex: 1945 (concept), Sketchpad 1963, NLS (oNLine System) - 1963-68, Xerox Alto 1972, Xerox Star 1981, Apple Lisa 1983, Mac 1984, NeXT 1988, Macintosh Powerbook 1991, WWW ~1994
and then we realized algorithm.
algorithm is famous by us. because we learn math. it is just calculation.
if we select yes, it operate formula.
Ethnomethodology
it simply means the study of the ways in which people make sense of their social world.
Ethnomethodology differs from other sociological perspectives in one very important respect- Ethnomethodologists assume that social order is illusory. They believe that social life merely appears to be orderly; in reality it is potentially chaotic.
comment
this week, I am poor at that subject. because I didn't know such a concept. ;new concept. but in conclusion, media technology connect our life, and interact people.

in that time, we learned about artificial Intelligence.
Do you know alan turing? Turing is often considered to be the father of modern computer science. and he is founder of computer science, artificial intelligence, mathematician, philosopher, codebreaker, and a gay man.
he did many things. for example, 1949- First serious mathematical use of a computer.
specially, turing's imitation game is famous.
“It is [the man's] object in the game to try and cause [the interrogator] to make the wrong identification.” “The object of the game for [the woman] is to help the interrogator.”
in earnest, artificial intelligence [AI] is the science of making machines do things that would require intelligence [as] if done by [humans]
and it works Knowledge Representation, Programming Languages, Natural Language (e.g., Story) Understanding, Speech Understanding, Vision, Robotics, Machine Learning ,Planning and etc.
but it has ploblems with technical, problems with story generation: missing common sense.

comment
in first, I was confused because a.i is so various.
but it is so fantastic. because I have known Alan turing, imitation game. and then I was surprised with intelligence. it is connected by computer.
and I am sure science will be develop better than now.
