Hey everyone, class this will be at the same times as last week: Tuesday, 8.30am and 3.30pm, and Wednesday at 8.30am.
Here are the lecture slides:
DIGC101 Lecture Week 12 – Exploring Online Worlds
And here’s for the tutorial:
See you in class!
There are the lecture slides for everyone, and the tutorial powerpoint as well for this week on virtual worlds. Remember that class times have changed: Tuesday 8.30am in Orion, Tuesday 3.30pm in Orion, and Wednesday 8.30am in Orion. This will apply to Week 12 as well.
Lecture Slides:
Week 11 Lecture – Intro to Online Worlds
Tutorial Slides:
See you soon everyone!
The next two tutorials will be dedicated to exploring the virtual world Second Life. Because of a glitch in the Matrix (or, more realistically, a problem where only 5 users can create accounts from the same IP address in an hour), I will need anyone who does not already have an account to create a Second Life avatar and account before the tutorial in Week 11 (Tuesday and Wednesday).
I’ve put all the details on how to join in a Scribd doc below for you.
DIGC101 Second Life Registration
Please ensure you do this before class or you may have to share with someone (which is nowhere near as fun, trust me). Drop me an email at fanthropology@gmail.com with your avatar name once you’ve got it set up! It just makes things a lot smoother on the day.
Some big changes a’coming for the subject:
Becky has gotten a new job! Congratulations to her! Unfortunately, this means she’ll be leaving us for the bright lights of Canberra. As I’m already slotted in to give the Week 11 & 12 lectures, I’ll be taking over the subject for the rest of the semester (such as it is). Make sure you wish her good luck next time you see her!
Also, in Weeks 11 & 12 the tutorial times will be changing (and going back to the regular times in Week 13). Here are the new times:
These are all in the Orion lab, and you can come to any of the three times.
Here’s the Powerpoint for Week 10′s tutorials on media piracy and internet users.
Here are the slides for our upcoming class on Google. See you all bright and early in the morning!
It appears there’s a page missing from the printed reader for the chapter by Anna Munster for this week. It’s the second page, p. 398 in the chapter, and page 130 in the printed reader. You can view this page online through the library website. Search the catalogue for the readings for DIGC101, and open the .pdf for Munster. I’ve added a link to a downloadable version here:
Sorry about the confusion everyone!
This week it’s all about us.
This week we’re looking at mobile phones, dating, those awkward pauses when we talk, and mobile cultures from around the world.
See you all soon!
For any of those interested in doing the machinima project instead of their major project, all the details are available here:
It will be starting tomorrow in the Orion Lab. Please contact me for more details!
Here’s the tutorial slides for this week, mon freres:
We’ll be making YouTube videos in class this week, and also looking at some examples of web projects. Bring in laptops, video cameras, and so on to record your video!
