My thoughts on the iPhone products made by Apple are they contain a great deal of technology a person can use. As we increase our technology older products do become obsolete or get regard as outdated. Technology will always improve and there will be no stoping point in its future. In regards to Apple inventing a new iPhone each year just shows my previous point our technology is improving so the need to integrate this technology results in the making of a new product. As of right now I believe technology is helping us acquire new resources to us ourself, however contains information that isn't necessary on phones in regards to apps. Apps are really only have a use in a given situation and also most of these apps are not free and must pay for its value. However, this is just one flaw i see in the technology we have on our phones, but the core data we have on the phone is a benefit that technology has given us. I wouldn't be surprised if another new iPhone will be reveled in this year, however i know i won't be buy the new phone until a few more years have past.

The word A.I meaning artificial intelligence a topic we always thought of as soon as we created machines. This topic  always goes two different ways should it be made possible or should we really create it. To be honest my opinion on this idea neither of this ideas, but a combination  of both. I think we can work to achieve this idea of making artificial intelligence, but we need to check the result constantly we don't know what would happen to giving a non-living being intelligence what they would do with it. Would they help society as we most likely wish to achieve or would we end up creating a monster that will end up destroying our very lives. Intelligence is a powerful weapon in it's own right and we must be careful on the result of share intelligence with machines.

Comm 360:01 Studio Crash Course

The curtain rises for the next upcoming show of the ages. Television we all had an experience with television before as we move around in the world or just siting down at home. Tv is everywhere now and will be in our lives in the future. So the work behind the scenes is just as important as the result the viewer sees. In the two weeks here i've learned about a camera work,compressor, and recorder box.

Even with some experience with working behind the camera you always find that somebody will always use a different video camera then you worked with previously. So the learning begins anew this is definitely the first time i'll work with such a small cam-recorder before. I've worked with cameras that have all then buttons on the sides on the camera, but now there placed in the touch screen menu. When I do enter into the my own line of work I know that i to will have camera that different then ones used.

Next up is the compressor a complete new identity in my work as Digital Media student. As i have been told its a monster of buttons and nobs to just control the volume of the waves of sound and it's still looks like a complicated mess to me even now. However, for now just have to focus on the five nobs mentioned i'm good to go with compressing. There names with take time to memorize, but the idea of how its works sticks on how to control the waves for good quality sound. In the end of this class i hope i can master have good use of the compressor in the future of my work.

Last on the list of things learn these few weeks the recorder box. You know at of all of the the machines we use in a studio or anywhere else the recorder is talked about the least. All you do press a button and your good to go and have your footage recorder, but the process takes more then that. Depending on what equipment used like in class have to setup up the system before reordering, which i'll remember in the future to check what recording equipment is used. The second part i have some experience with uploading the data recorder into the editing computer to begin working on the footage shot for the day or numerous days before. I just have to remember to know the equipment i will be using and there shouldn't be any problems.

My experience this two weeks has been great for expanding my knowledge in the field. Just goes to show you there always more to learn when working internship or in another teachers studio, because one person always have a different way to film for there purposes. Just keep expanding my knowledge i know it will help me achieve my goals in the future.

Internet Security

In this article is talking about the NSA undermining internets social contract and we need to stop this. I would agree that America has had lost of problems with internet security in the years. What Bruce Schnenier says in this article does make a point we have seen our information been leaked and we done nothing to stop it. Through it on the our firewall and user mistakes for going on sites with virus. But this article talks about the government making the internet multi layered surveillance object that the makers, maintenance, and business can't use anymore. What i agree in this article is that government shouldn't have non tech people working on internet surveillance should be expert people who know what there talking about and should be involved in tech related laws being made because this have the most knowledge on the subject the political representatives. Just the one problem of this article it doesn't explain enough of what NSA did to make major issue to cause us to fight back. Just in this article could be another article. But internet security definitely should be talked about to make change for the better.

Growing up Online Video

When watching this video it just shares with the concern that parents show on there kids online life. We think everything is fine and dandy when go online no need for concern about what not real and what we can escape from. When we use the internet we teenagers what to find funny videos, play with friends already know, and connect with others through Facebook and Myspace by add me.
       For most of us teenagers the internet is a continuation of our daily life. Where we use after class are over and talk to our friends after the school time. Even i can't say that the internet wouldn't be a key point of my time at home. I use it all the time and if i didn't i might go to the t.v or start playing video on systems. The problem is that parents see this amount of time we spend online to much and were sharing to much about ourselves online and all that is true because can search us online and fine all the info we given online because that info doesn't disappear.Being a first generation online user i also agree that our parents might not be in the loop of how all the new technology out now like my mom who doesn't do well with computer but still tries to learn from my dad. With this technology schools are also trying to accommodating for us using so much new technology. For example they would use smart boards or projectors to display the teaching of the day then when before there would be a chalkboard and a teacher talking will writing about the classes topic. When in this type of a class our there is a lack of focus because where use to an immediate response we get on computer due to the information being right at our finger tips to learn about.So when technology continues to grow the next generation my be different then the our generation like it is with our partents so we just need to take it at a step a time and learn to consider how much we do online.
