This course for graduate students
in the graduate school of information science, is an introduction
to the general knowledge of digital media with expanding theoretical
discourses in terms of culture and technology. Overall scanning
of digital media from the early stage to our contemporary will be
introduced. Then, New media and new technologies are covered interdisciplinarily
considering various topics: hypertext, www, social network, artificial
intelligence, human-computer interaction and computer games. Furthermore,
machine-aid, human, public & private, authorship & ownership and
open sources will be discussed broadly. Students will practice and
reconsider their ideas and thoughts on digital media and leading
edged technologies reflecting cultural matters and current issues.
Every week students have to follow up given readings, and have to
present their own comments and summaries that we can share our understanding
and knowledge altogether.Also, the class will be held in several
exhibitions to embody the current technological environment. We
are not simple sponges that absorb and throw out something as it
is, but filtering, digesting and deconstructing entities that consider,
build, create and explore our own ideas, works, media and so called
knowledges.
*Thanks for Warren Sack, this class material could be made more effectively. Many schedules and material-information are taken by his lecture system.
