Week 4 what are new media? 2

1.1.4 non-technical and inclusive

Everything become New thing.
computer, internet, game, virtual reality, transport and so on.
New media is not limited narrow concept.
range of phenomena.

Digital media is based on technology.
Analogue <-------> Digital

pure medium : obeing social coustom, old thought, old idea and old media. the feudal system .
visionary image( people painted for showing their high class and wealth), physical
'inter' medium : breaking and opposing old things.
'New' medium : pure + inter media. opening horizon. sensible image(we think and feel, admire through painting)

Both pure and inter medium have very diffirent character each other.
But New medium include not only pure also inter medium.
Therefore New media is inclusive.
So we are difficult to define New media.
Today we learn New media again.
Same topic continue but I feel new every class.

We learn semiology.
denotation-- SIGNIFIER ( letter, sound, sign, the surface, the exterior)
connotation-- SIGNIFIED (abstract concept, metaphysical)

Every scholarship have science system.
Semiology connect name with object for using conveniently.
It is distracted because It is at pleasure by people.
So many language are maden by each culture.
Meaning is same but naming is different.
One object's signifier is various.signifier shows the surface, exterior.
Signifier and denotation is similar.
On the other hand, signified and connotation include abstract concept.
So Pure media looks like denotation.
New media looks like connotation.
We communicate with each other everyday.
When we talk with someone, we express our thinking and feeling by using our language and face expression.
If people speak only their language another person doesn't understand, we can't communicate.
So we need to comply with the rules of language.
So I think It is important to use well-formed signifier.
And We develop our idea creative by new thing.
So each person's thought and feeling is different.
They express their idea by using signifier, but the meaning change abstract.
It has interior meaning. This is signified.
Compling with the rule and visionary image like pure media is as important as breaking and opposing old things so developing creative thing like inter media.So combinating pure media and inter media is New media.
I think New media play an important role in our communication life.

Week 3 what are new media? 1

1.1.3 the ideological connotations of the new

New
New=Better
A cluster of glamorous(attractive, everybody want ) and exciting meaning
The cutting edge(brand new)
Avant - gardes (ex.Marcel Duchamp)
Forward - thinking people(innovator, thinking diffirently)
From a mordernist belief
Increased productively(developing technology makes our living comfortable and our lifestyle change), education horizons(unknown world)
Open up ne creative, communication
A range of development 'New'
Part od a powerful ideological movement (people think diffirent in same space, situation. It makes culture and setted idea keeps change )
New Media & ICT (Information Communication Technology)
Globalizing neo-liberal form( globalizing are made by computer internet quickly but we use English language)

What does 'New' mean??

I think New is very innovational word.
When I heared 'new' I felt fresh and challenging and It made me expect to better before.
New technology are make our living develop.
We want to be more confortable and convenient.
New thing make our ideas positive and progress.
So New thing make more creative thing than original.

Why do we learn art?

It is like our first class lecture.
Learning art grow up our sensitivity.
Our feeling and thinking is bigger and bigger.
As a result, We express our feeling and thinking in many way.
That make creative and different thing before never seen.

We saw a video, Da Vinci Project.
Subject is art education change in 21 century.
It emphasize the art education.
We think Art is not more important than math, science and so on.
But we must develope not only reasonable thing but also emotional thing.
Then, our every sense develope fairly.
Art education's important has started already in Paris and Germany.
Leonardo davinci was not only scientist but also artist.
We could learn from him.
So mordern art combine art and technology like Renaissance.
They are very different part but their meeting contribute to make new and creative thing.

Week 3 what are new media? 1

1.1.1 the media as an institution & 1.1.2 the intensity of change

what are new media?
-Medium ---> Media
-Media that by which something is expressed and connected. (ex. eggwhite)
Media seems like bright future and has various

the media as an institution
-Communication Media( newspaper, TV, internet, book etc) = Mass Media
-Institution an organization
-Cultural and material product of the institution
-New technological possiblitities an established Media forms

the intensity of change
-1950 : independent all country expect for Europe
-1960 : the Union of Soviet <---> Democracy
Many people died because of divides two world and war
so came out humanism
-Shift from mordernity to post- mordernity :
decentering of established and centralised geo-political orders
(Feminism,
pay attention to another culture get out of western-male culture,
seek to find something new and strange get out of something boring)
-Globalization
-Post- industrial information age :
Today information have great value although It is not physical
-New technoculture :
computer+ culture


Media have many modifier such as Mass, Digital, Multi, New and so on.
So I think New Media is difficult to define accurately.
New media that I learn today broke the Media's history(old media).
As computer has been improving , Media have changed rapidly.
So we got various informations from Media through computer.
This technology mixed with old media and it forms New media.

Media provide us something convienent and there are various kinds of Media(newspaper, TV, internet, book etc) near us.
We must need them in information age.
So Media's power is bigger and bigger.
Besides Media is interesting Because It is not fixed but changable.

Week 2 Theoretical Background 1: Traditional Thoughts on Art

Art and philosophy used to think difficult things. And I still feel so.
Today I have originally learned about changing processing of philosophy related to art.
Culture wasn't built in a day. This is made day by day.
Culture include many things, cloth, trand, lifestyle, art and so on.

Why is Art important?
Art express our emotion through music, painting, dance and so on.
That may make more creative ideas by only one's own feeling.
That has value to art.
So I think art is essential and necessary to feel happy and pleasant in our life.

For that reason, We study way to understanding the art.

Hume's philosophy = We feel external. We make decision which based on knowledge by oneself with our own perception. It is the most important thing to become center of ourselves.
Kant's philosophy = beauty is based on feeling. Because we can't give a description
everything.

Week 1 introduction of the class

I saw 'the glove'.
It was an embarrassing short movie.
But It include many things that could be thought.
Main actor told that maybe the glove came from hell.
But he made the glove got power by combining with computer.
The glove which got power killed Tim?? who gave the glove power and main actor was in danger.
The technolohy should be developed as long as human's life is not ruined.
I think that the short media could expect that machine(=glove) which people believe as a toy would conquer human.
