[Back to TECH index page] [TIME-LINE] New media can be automated; ideally AI. Reacts/inter-acts Modularity -- put together into something. Variability -- can customise the appearance, etc. Vector graphics (scale-able) ---- Manevich: Closed I/A -- a tree. The content and the data can't change Open I/A -- Do a google search based on random words, etc and ten I/F transmit philosphies (of design) and logic and stuff like that. On-line spaces (eg, SIM's) if 2 or 3 men move into an on-line room to live together they are assumed to be friends -- that the SIM co-erces that they are not lovers and that they can not get married. This is a co-ercive (and behind the BOX) philosophy/ideology. Next: eof.
