computer games

We play computergames. But, we don't know how they work. Behind the screen games work from engine. Engine include graphics, physics, ai and etc. But now, People want make itself. This is mods. Mod i by general public developer. People change games image or something. So what makes a good game? I think a many selling game is good game.

computer-aid

CSCW is initial of computer-supported cooperative work. CWCS is a field of research and design like CAD/CAM, ABB, Powerwall, Drug Design. We work together and design computer-systems and networkds to enable or facilitate group work. For example, CAD is automadically caculation all thing about constructures.
"language/action” perspective was presented by Winograd and Flores. Conversations are sequences of actions because by saying things people are understood to be doing things. For example saying is doing like promise. Sometimes I'm doing something not saying.

human-computer interaction

History of HCI is divided as tools people, systems, funding. History of HCI as tools people is
Vannevar Bush, J.C.R. Licklider, Ivan Sutherland, Doug Engelbart, Ted Nelson, Alan Kay etc. System is Memex, sketchpad, NLS, Xeros alto, Apple Lisa, MAC, NeXT, Macintosh Powrebook, WWW. And Funding is military, Universities, Government, Companies...I think funding is very important every activities. So, We learning about funding. Basic design of HCI is the computer act like person. So HCI and AI meet.
When I did ELIZA, ELIZA's answer is so wrong, and it was not understand my question. I tried to conversation ELIZA but that was not wanted.
Johnstone's "algorithm" is very interasting. haven't story but have story. Sometimes we don't make a story. A Person who did question is make a story but she doesn't feel it was hard. This algorithm have some rule. We have rule and make a story.
I don't know what is ethmomethodology. It maybe make of people's mind that he's mind and social activities, ethics like that.
HCI is not perpect. And We make a media. This media is just tool that make easy to work. But we want more somthing like slave. Tool did it self what I want. And conversation. It was just people's desire. I think.

Artificial intelligence

First, we met a man 'Alan Turing'. He is founding of computer science, artificial intelligence, mathematician, philosopher, codebreaker, and a gay man. He first think of artificial intelligence. imitation game is a some of test what can machines think. It is played with three people, a man, a woman, and an interrogator who may be of either sex. The interrogator stays in a room apart from the other two. The object of the game for the interrogator is to determine which of the other two is the man and which is the woman. Now, we guess who is girl, and boy. It is so difficult. so we think about machines. machines think itself?
But machines have some problem. It doesn't deciding itself. People decide all part. Machines can't think?'
I talked with ELIZA. ELIZA is computer program for communication between Man and Machine. I question something it asked. But it looks like some miserable.
AI is not complete. Some people think it was amazing. but I think it was so weird. If machine could think, it insist a right.

080406 'social networks'

Actually I don't like cyworld. Cyworld was so miserable. Everyday check the number of visitors. And remaining the new posting. People have many time. So I don't make cyworld until 2007. But everybody like doing cyworld. cyworld was new media technologies and it is make reinforce existing social networks and even work to isolate people like me. Why social networks is science? Some people research this part. Many people say that this part '인맥, 학연, 지연' like this.

History of social networks research is simple. Friendship choices between 4th grade boys and girls, kinship studies, six-degrees of separation etc. It was chart connetion of people. Six-degrees of separation was intereasting. It was said we know all people pass by six step. So we lived in the small world. In this theory, I know famous people pass six step or five step?

Social networks have centrallity, bridges, equivalence. There are very important. If they were not in networks, networks was broken. The bridges was broken, we are not find a capital. Bowling alone is become after the second world war. People don't trust each other. So they lost their social capital. So people want make a new social network. And select a new method the new media technologies. But some people don't follow the this method, isolated some people.

Social networks as technology is reaction to others. It was not only human, but also artificial things. For example, some shoppingmall, 'fixing' the networks. We can shopping in the shoppingmall, when we choose the goods, we can see the related recommendation goods. This process also social networks. So we always do some social networks.

Art of social networks is show connetion people and people. In old times, people draw map using pen, pencil, paper. But in time, we made a progam using this program show that connect the each other. This art was not artistic. But it is usefulness.

This part is so complex. Social netwoks is interdisplinaty. Social networks have many parts.

080329 'the world-wide web'

People make media and then media make people. When I was young that I see the similar word 'People make book and then book make people.' This two is powerful influence to people. And
WWW was made of collabolation of people. When doing research, Most important thing is fund. So, Leader's most important mission is supported by other people or organization etc. In that case I think that leader have to know economic.
WWW is standard. and We have so many standard. Why we make a standard. Standard is possible a collaboration writing. And I think it was economical. So many organization is wrote and influence standard. WWW is connect vast people and machine. WWW is made a global village.
Uri is a identifier. So we used this rules find webpage.
Web is so many standard and rules. And this is comfortable to us.

080321 'Hypertext'

Today's class was so interesting. I know what is hypertext a little.but I don't think Cut-ups is a hypertext. I watch the "The Jean Genie". That video so weird.That was just rag. but it is hypertext.
we doesn't explain exactly what is digital media. We have to think that a whole life. I think a forever, I'll find a more than what?
Englebart is pioneer why he make a concept of personal computer. In 1960s, common technology is a hollerith cards and batch processing. That time englebart think mouse, keyboard, monitor, etc. And he was so succeed pursuation. So we used mouse and koebord or something.
Media is a so difficult to me. It wasn't expain exactly. So that is a interesting.
