March 23, 2008: This course is intense. There's lots of basic concepts to grasp here such as boolean, for loop, recursion, short hand, floating, integer, lists, if and then statements, and some more. Anyhow what I enjoy most of about this class is that it is balanced through weekly writing, reading, computing, and discussions. Yuri Gitman gives us blank white paper to write on and says he enjoys reading the handwriting. This is my first college teacher who out loud admited he enjoys reading students' handwriting.
Cloud 9 Nirvana
- We intend to create a 9-stage experience leading to "Cloud 9," the state of nirvana, tranquil bliss, or ecstasy. We draw upon the idea that, in a classic path toward nirvana, the subject feels increasingly lightweight and unencumbered, shedding perceived physical and mental burdens. Our intention is to recreate this experience by programming sound depending on the amount of users at once in this defined space. For example, if there is 1 person averages every 5 minutes in an hour time frame, then audio content is solo moments (buddhist chant, ecstasy, classical music, intimate moment.) If there is more than 2 more averaging every 5 minutes in an hour time frame, then audio content are group moments (cheering, laughing, playing, toasting, socializing, jazz music) "Cloud 9" is a spatial and auditory representation of nirvana. by Katherine Lee, Fiorella Gu, Gabriel Medina, & Carol Chiu
