…for my generation, at least (b. 1983). Idea is my wife‘s. Storyboard is mine. Suggestions welcome. Click for full version.
Nostalgia. We all have it. But how do we express nostalgia for ephemeral media?
I’ve been invited to lecture on convergence media at Southern Media Corporation in Guangzhou, China this June. I’m beginning to pull on some of the resources I have throughout my media contacts so don’t be surprised if I drop you a line to contribute to the deck I’m working on.
This should be a [...]
It’s not – at least yet. This is analysis, not a normative or cautionary statement. It’s also not the only future that could play out: there must be other, better options.
What would happen if the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, a 40+ year survivor of many political designs on its existence, were finally fatally [...]
One of the major challenges we wanted to tackle with the PBS News project is how we syndicate rich stories. Not multimedia packages, not playlists, and certainly not ‘rich’ articles, but visually compelling, narrative-true structures of content.
For our big move to the west coast, Morgan and I decided to shoot at least every 100 miles to built out a geoblog of our adventure. We didn’t have as much time as we would have wanted, but this helped capture just a bit of the beauty and diversity we saw driving across this [...]
The news industry is suffering one of its worst years in modern history, including a splintering audience, plummeting revenue and the inevitable layoffs that follow. But even in this in environment some have found ways to find success in the fault lines of the media landscape.
The Uptake, a left-leaning Minneapolis-based journalism [...]
Flanked on one side by an alley and by a crumbling antiques store façade on another, Dos Gringos Café has become a stable mainstay in a changing and sometimes troubled neighborhood. After nearly 9 years of serving the Mt. Pleasant community of Washington, D.C., however, it faces even more challenges than in [...]
For my Art History Senior Thesis, or so-called “Comps” at Carleton College, I gave a historical comparative analysis of art that has striven in either form or function to provoke illusion in the viewer or cause the psychological phenomenon of immersion. From these works I traced the evolution of illusionistic concepts into the immersive [...]
In the Spring of 2006 I co-developed a happening funded by the Art & Art History Department of Carleton College along with the Carleton Administration. Combining inexpensive and readily available building materials with live video and lighting, we created an indoor video landscape for an estimated 500 participants.
Encouraged to adopt the guise of [...]
Nearing the end of my time at Carleton College, I sought to find and document those events – in a confluence of very special conditions – that only occur in such a college environment. The removed, rural setting of the college and intensely academic though thoroughly eccentric student populous produces many of these [...]
Now in his third and final year as head of the station, [Cameron Nordholm] credited streaming audio – which allows listeners to tune in worldwide by visiting krlx.org – with changing the focus of a station that has been on the air since 1948.
Song requests from listeners in Minneapolis are regular [...]
In preparation for my senior thesis project entitled Illusion, Immersion and the Myth of Total Reality, partly based on the work of Oliver Grau in his book Virual Art (2003 MIT Press), I prepared several written and visual overviews on the history of digital and virtual art.
This project examined salient topics [...]
In the History of Photography Course taught at Carleton College in the Fall of 2003, the class was assigned various topics to discuss and to produce these discussions on a web-based platform. Social Reform Photography was our topic and I launched into creating a multimedia html website for kiosk hardware that we were [...]
For the Art After New Media course I spent much of our time examining the link between information and interface. My first project examined the map as an interface for the actions of our daily lives. I project my movements throughout the day in a breadcrumb fashion throughout the campus and also lay the communications [...]
