? Radical or progressive way in design innovation I was thinking of the style of interface/interactions when I saw two devices at http://www.monsterdesign.co.kr/ I just compare the two devices in conceptual view of interface/interaction design; innovative or progressive, or futuristic or current suggestion. The first device is a conceptual MP3 player, Iriver. The second…
Prewiting, I Hardly Knew Ye
[Marty] My name is Marty … and I’m a pre-wirter. [Group] Hi, Marty! [Marty] I guess I’ve been a pre-writer for some time now, I just didn’t know it. At least not until Jeff held the mirror of truth up to my face. Even though I think I already know what I’m doing, I plan…
Prewriting, Phenomenology and Games
The last two or three weeks have brought a couple of writing opportunities my way, some of which involved extensive prewriting and others that involved very little. I can without a doubt say that the prewritten papers were much, much easier to finish. I mentioned a couple weeks ago that I submitted a paper to…
My Pre-Writing Exercise
Concrete Phenomenon: In the Animal Planet original documentary nature series, Meerkat Manor, the viewer is presented with a reality different from other nature programs, and therefore, a different kind of response to that reality is generated by the viewer. In Meerkat Manor, the meerkats (the main characters) are given names, roles, personalities, and many other…
Reflecting On Pre-Writing
I am naturally a pretty skeptical person and when I was introduced to pre-writing I was a bit unimpressed. I felt that the ideas of pre-writing were obvious and that I have been doing them for years. I was wrong. I started my pre-writing exercise and realized half way through that I suck at pre-writing.…
Prewriting Experience
I have no idea what prewriting is before this class. I thought I was doing prewriting because I organized my thoughts and listed them as an outline. When thinking of some theories could be used in a paper, I started looking it up rather than put these ideas in an inventory before writing. As an…
Prewriting Process-Phenomenology & Reactable
I started out just writing out keywords and major ideas we’ve had about phenomenology so far-things like intersubjectivity, ethnomethodology, and authors like Dourish and Metz. At the same time I had a couple of “concrete examples” that I find interesting. When I looked at the two parts together(theory & example), one of my concrete examples…
My prepwriting experience
My experience was pretty similar to Mike’s as he described in the previous post. I did a lot of whiteboard work as well as a short analysis of the thing I was looking at (youtube comment dialogues for political discourse). I finished the assignment up with a document with prose, putting all of my ideas…
Prewriting
I spent some time on my flight reading through a couple of articles about my topic. I really enjoyed the process, although I’m also eager for feedback because I’m not entirely sure I did it correctly. I followed the outline that Marty did in class and I made some lists of ideas from the two…
Takeo Time
I’m a big fan of Takeo Igarashi’s work in creating interesting and accessible ways for people to participate in traditionally complex, digital, visual creative processes. Over the past few years, he’s developed some very unique “hands-on” interfaces for things like modeling, animating and texturing 3D objects, 2D deformation animations, and so on. While he tends…
