More to come…
Digital visual media can best be understood through the ways in which they honor, rival, and revise linear-perspective painting, photography, film, television, and print. No medium today, and certainly no single media event, seems to do its cultural work in isolation from other media, any more than it works in isolation from other social and economic forces.
was trying to find something and stumbled on this. video is from 10 months ago.
3 students at Stanford demonstrate their haptic controller which spatialises sound. the controller uses 4 faders which controls sounds in space, and these sounds interact within a physics engine. made in Pd!
great collection of writing on new media/technology & culture
presence is always mediated by both physical and conceptual tools that belong to a given culture: “physical” presence in an environment is in principle no more “real” or more true than telepresence or immersion in a simulated virtual environment. (Mantovani and Riva, 1999: 547)
instead:
the past several decades have also produced a substantial body of work that explores the ways that global communication networks reconfigure our experience of time and space.
The question becomes how we can think this orientation towards the future without becoming mired in either a predictive structure or the progression of a technological determinism where we simply react to “new” (media) technologies.
