Asthetic object from material to abstract idea.
- conceptualism & minimalism
spatial shift
ideologic shift(value)
discursive field
1) short history of technology - based media art before 2000s
begining - 1967 E.A.T(Experiment in Art and Technology)
Application of simple technologics 1970s & 1980s before www.
Application of internet technologies
2) Media artworks after 2000s
character : dynamic, interactive..
breakage: fine art(artwork without artist) & other art
3) Applied media artworks
art fused computer tech.
etc.
-------------------------------------
Epilogue.
- It was absolutly great time for me and for us. Speaking and Listening in English were good experience for us. The class is gonna be taken big part of our impressive memory. Anyway, actually I don't understand the 'art' and the 'aesthetics' of a media but I can say I tried to understand and feel those something ultimately hard themes. Lastly, I'd like to say thanx to Dr. Yoon and the classmates(the guys who most desperated) for had impressive effort.

new media: determining or determined? 2
*Based on Hyowon and Sunghoon's features
A narrtive of redemption
McLuhan’s view of media as technological extensions : These four cultures
Primitive oral Culture , Literate Culture , Mechanical printing , Electric media
Remediation-
Any media contents can be changed or transiated to other media
Extending the sensorium-
electric circuitry = extension of the central nervous system
The medium is the message
The power of media technologies to structure social arrangements and relationships.
‘Medium is the message' means the broadening of the concept of a medium to all kinds of technologies that enabled.
Human agency versus technological determination
The complex of social, cultural, and economic factors which shape them,
The ways that technologies are mobilished for certain ends
Through the media, communications several of the questions will be.
printing thechnology
The extension thesis
Four versions of this thesis: Aristotle , Marx , Ernst Kapp , Henri Bergson
That technology becomes autonomous determining its own fucture
and that of the socity it shapes.
Medium is not a message anymore.
Medium became a massage.
Medium came to us too closely.
Medium spreaded out ALL the entertainment we see.
and.
It will be fused to our mind inside, someday.

New media: determining or determined? 1
*Based on Jiyoon and Dahye's Features.
Why the Frankfurt School?
-Produced first critical perspectives on mass media and popular. And theories & methods is important aspect of the development of the study of popular culture .
Mass society critics feared four things : First is the debasement and displacement. Second is the erosion of high cultural traditions. Third is loss of the ability of these cultural traditions to comment critically on society 's values. Fourth is the indoctrination and manipulation.
Fascism and Stalinism : Totalitarianism
– Standardization , political indoctrination
– 3S : sex, screen, sports
-
McLuhan and Williams-
The Different between McLuhan and Williams are that McLuhan said new media change everything. But Williams said media can only take effect through already present social processes and sustain existing power relations.
Marshall McLuhan’s major works are,“The medium is the message”, clothes is an extension of skin, a wheel is an extension of foot, a book is an extension of eyes, electricity is an extension of the central nerve, and “global village”.
Raymond Williams’s major works are, The research direction to popular culture like movies and television, countless detailed studies of all kinds of media are guided and informed by his careful and penetrating outlines for a theory of media as a form of cultural production, and new media as subject to control and direction by human institutions, skill, creativity and intention, we are building upon such a williamsite emphasis.

Who was dissatisfied with old media?
*Based on hyerim and joohee's presentaion.
What is discourse?
Language does not merely describe a pre-given reality .Operating such as microscopes, telescopes and camera .
A sense of repetition in how media changes is dejavu (: 'seen this' or 'been here' before ). And each new medium occurs and proceeds technologically and socioeconomically in the same way.
Also the same patterns of response are evident in the members of the culture and the same patterns occur in widely different historical and social contexts .
Determine a kind of media is panorama or dirama and technological visual culture .
And lastly we ask ourselves that what is real. Noone can tell defenitely about the real. Think about that am I reall real. And are those things we see are really real. The answer should be known by ourselves.
-What is the problem to which new communication media are the solution?We Will find discursive framework.
-Celebrate as overcoming that negative limits, oppressive feature and dominant analogue media.
-Superiority of new media from retrospective projections and post-hoc rationalisations of change.
-Two sets of idea exist technological Imaginary and ‘mass’ broadcast media.
-Psychoanalytic theory is critical thoughts… So, recast in more sociological language.
-The imaginaire is difference that ‘real’ & ‘symbolic’. And it is not refer poetic mental faculty or the activity of fantasizing.
-We apply to technology Role of such an ‘other’, social reality and desires for a better society.
-Abstract notionv is case study. And reminding ourselves, so considering the recurring sense.
-Loss of the form that are displaced from photography on painting and television then video on cinema. More recently digital imaging on photography and graphics software.
-Expressed in social is telephone invade the domestic privacy and email eradicates the time for reflection.
TV kills the limit of imagination, I think. We call it stupid box in Korea and I agree with it absoultly because there is no interaction between the media and contactor.

What Kind of history 2
*Based on dayun and samyeol's presentaion.
A sense of deja vu-> New media have caused several media historians to record a sense of deja vu.The feeling that we have been here before.
Photography Cinema->That have been used to contextualise the widespread technophilia of the contemparary moment.We discuss earlier 'media revolution'.
Existing body of media history->Literacy, Printing Press, Book, Photography, Film and Television + music.
'Coming of the book', 'the birth of photography'.-> cultural impact of the computer, but such studies are very important.
Historical & ethnographic research->imaginative investment in new technologies their appearance inour lives the members of a culture repurpose and subvert media in everyday use.

What kind of history? 1
*based on Semi and Nahyun's representation.
- Teleological accounts of new media
From cave paintings to mobile phones
In rheingold's historical scheme
the cave paintings -> fax machine
From photography to telematics : extracting some sense from teleology.
includes Peter Weibel's 8 stage historical model of the technologic
developments of image production and transmission
Seeing thr limits of new media teleologies
focault and gerealogies of new media
Mark Poster's concept
Jay Polter and Richard Grusin's concept
-> focauldian perspective
- New media and the modernist concept of progress
Deffered future of new media
- because of technological underdevelopment
-> rather,culprit is cultural resistance
- be used and understanding according to older, existing practices and ideas
-> limit the potential of new media
The view of medermist aesthetic
medium has its often kind of essence
medium has to be genuirely new from the past and old media
Gene Youngblood
Steve Holzman
Modernist viewpoint - new media has to make a radieal break with the past
Greenbergian ideas - did nothave to break with a past
Pictorialists, TV, cinema - Pictorialists are would be the example of the perceptual imperialists
The content of medium is always another media
Ray williams - Media technology doesn't have an essence
New media is radically novel?

change and continuity
- Based on TaeWoo and JeongJin's feature
- Polarized over the degree of new media's newness
- Hinges upon the disciplinary frameworks and discourses
- Revolutionary - historical perspective
Newness - measuring
How new? How large changes?
- We need to establish from what previous states things have changed.
Revolution -Change (new) + Continuity(Old)
Three possibilities
1) How can we know that new things are made from?
2) Familiar in everyday use on consumption
3) Degrees of novelty
- new media buzzword 'interactivity'
Medium - is kind of a bridge between two objects.
