Theorists of new media have noted an intriguing resemblance between the features of digital technology (such as the nodes and links of the website), and the features of creative thinking. This resemblance is the point of departure for the experiment that will focus our study of Hypermedia. The semester project may be summarized as follows:
compose a blog that documents the process of designing your image of wide scope.
The experiment is cumulative, including two assignments (the blog is evaluated at midterm and finals)
NOTE: The assignments are posed as problems to be solved. Each problem is expressed in terms specific to the assigned readings. The purpose of the bands, email, and class discussion is to figure out exactly how to do the assignment.
