Assignment 1

I’m really interested in Typography works such as photographs, paint or animations.
I’m always searching for typography images and I love to look at others people’s idea. so, I decided to collect and post up other’s typography work that I had been through, I would like to make my blog as a collection of typography work that I like.

the reason that I chose blog to show my online exhibition is because blog can post up lost of thing such as journal, photo or video.

and now my blog is almost done

Assignment 1 (my typography blog)

I had already created a blog for my typography exhibition

on this link: mytypography.blogspot.com

My blog is look like a collection of typography photos, which divided the photos into section: alphabet, people, tree and etc...

Assignment 1

I felt that the exhibition of animation that I wanted to do is too board.

So, I think I'm going to focus on only one particular topic which is 'TYPOGRAPHY'

I think I will create a blog and demonstrate some articles, videos and images that I think it is interesting and related to typography

badly, I can only find the typography animations in YOUTUBE website, but the animation is not in very good quality, in Mytoons and Vemio

website don't have any typographic video animation.

thank you for the nice image

week 5

This week tutorial,

Nathan asked everyone to pick one website that we like, it can be any website or a personal blog. Then we have to present it in front of the class about:

• what do we like about that website?
• whether we like the design or not?
  
• is it a web 1.0 or 2.0?
• is it a social website?

I chose to do www.kosanathai.com ,

a Thai website, which is a bit old and massy design, but the good thing is it has lots of Thai and world television commercials(TVC) for me to download. Plus, it also a social website because there is a forum to discuss about the TVC and other types of ad. Still, it is a web 1.0 website, because the user do not able to the interface much with the website.

My understanding of Web 2.0 is that the websites that are interface by user rather than only the owner of the web.

Production Project A

Today I started to think about my Production project A . 

first I was going to do an TV Ads (TVC) exhibition but I  think it just a little bit too much about copyright. So,  I chose to do an online exibition of "the Animation Videos" instead.

At the end of the tutorial, I spoke to Nathan about my Project. Nathan recommended lots of website that I can demonstrate my exhibition and some websites the I can find the animations.(Mytoons.com, Vemio...etc.)

Then, I asked him about the copyright licensed. he told me to find some of the animation that I interrest in first and show him next class and he will tell me how to licensed appropriately.

Lecture 3 ( one of the nominated posts)

 From the lecture week #3 the most interesting part was.. when Michael said that

" It's not necessary to always follow the rules"

He reminded me of one of my teachers in Thailand ...In the first lecture class, a lecturer walked in and introduced himself normally......after that, he gave out A4 papers to every student. At first I thought he was gonna ask everyone to right their names down and put it on the table so he gets to know everyone's name, but instead of that he asked the students to make their own paper airplane and try to throw it as far as they can.. so the students started to fold their nice and powerful airplanes in the usual style (such as, the arrow,the dart,the champ, the moth..etc.) then start throwing it as far as they can, but no one could make it hit the wall at the back of class room.

Finally, the teacher said he will show everyone his paper air plane....he grabbed an A4 paper and scrunched the paper with his hand then he threw it and it hit the wall.....

"don't stick to the rules" he said

'so, let's make our Blog different'

What is NETWORKED MEDIA ( one of my nominated posts)

MEDIA = A “medium”, (plural: media) is something intermediate, something
between one person and another, and that medium allows us to communicate or express ideas.(across space and time)

NETWORKED = “networked”: not face-to-face: there is a carrier medium. Not one-to-one {telephone}. Not broadcast {one-to-many e.g TV, radio}. It’s many-to-many. In practice, that means the >>internet.


HTML = HyperText Markup Language

XML = eXtensible Markup Language. XML is kind-of human readable, and it’s kind-of
machine readable.So it’s a good compromise.

RSS = Really Simple Syndication.(The basis for newsreader feeds)

Moreover, I learnt a little bit of Internet history from the first lecture as well.

Precursor: ARPANET ARPA was the Us Advanced Research Projects Agency.

in 1960s, They started connecting computer network across US and then the world.

In the past, the internet was very slow, and we unable to send the whole message or file in one contiguous stream.

So, we have to chopping up data into packets, this method called 'Packet switching' and the data have to send along with 'Metadata'

Metadata is the thing that tells the packet where to go, so when the receiver got the packet they will understand it.

Bandwidth is what  learnt from lecture 1  >>>

•   from what i know bandwidth is  something in the Internet connection cables  which indicated how fast data can be transfer from ISP to our computer
•     It 's the capacity for a given system to transfer data over a connection 
•     so why does it take so long for every Web page you visit to appear on your screen ? that's where bandwidth comes in.
  

In computer networks, bandwidth is often used as a synonym for data transfer rate - the amount of data that can be carried from one point to another in a given time period (usually a second). This kind of bandwidth is usually expressed in bits (of data) per second (bps). Occasionally, it's expressed as bytes per second (Bps). A modem that works at 57,600 bps hastwice the bandwidth of a modem that works at 28,800 bps. In general, a link with a high bandwidth is one that may be able to carry enough information to sustain the succession of images in a video presentation. (http://searchnetworking.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid7_gci211634,00.html)

If you've ever wondered why it takes so long to download certain Web pages or other files to your computer, it's all determined by the bandwidth of the connection between your computer and your Internet Service Provider. Which is to say, it all hinges on that wire connecting your computer to your modem to your ISP. That connection is often referred to as the last mile, as illustrated in Figure 1.

The beginning of my blog

I chose Blogger because it looks simple but actually there are lots of thing We can do to the Blog.

In the lecture 2: lecturer discussed about Blog or Weblogs

he said blogs are form of online publishing.

A website that we might classify as a blog is one that is easily and often updated and mostly in the chronological order.

Blog, is about anyone, everyone publishing about anything.

Moreover, he also mentioned that Blog is the easiest, cheapest, fastest publishing tool ever invented. Blog makes people have a voice that they did not have before.
