Assignments

Exams 2 exams, each 90 minutes

Project The overall objective is to design a platform independent knowledge media system that uses multiple existing location centric API feeds and allows users:

1.  to contribute audio, text or photo information to the system based specifically to their location

2.  to retrieve intelligent information from the system about an area based on the above input

At the end of the course each group has to provide the following deliverables (adjust to the scenario you work on):

A report of not more than 15 pages that contains: 1.  all data generated (logically formatted) 2.  an analysis of the data with conclusions 3.  a series of static screen designs (UI) that explain how your system works and an

explanation of why this is the 'optimal' solution 4.  a machine processable system (architecture, data structures, algorithms) that

incorporates data to produce the output displayed in your UIs

A presentation of 20 minutes about the groups work at the end of the course.

Intro – Systems, Senses and Communication


ILPS 11

Intro - Systems

Interactive information spaces

mausoleum of information versus space of ideas and interaction


ILPS 12

Intro - Systems

The responsive room

the real versus the virtual


ILPS 13

Intro - Systems

The creative system

support versus create


ILPS 14

Intro - Senses

Vision is the ability of the brain and eye to detect electromagnetic waves within the visible range (light) interpreting the image as "sight." Audition is the sense of sound perception in response to changes in the pressure exerted by atmospheric particles within a range of 20 to 22000 Hz. Tactition is the sense of pressure perception, generally in the skin. Equilibrioception is the perception of balance or acceleration and is mainly related to cavities containing fluid in the inner ear Gustation is one of the two main "chemical" senses, where four well-known receptors on the tongue detect sweet, salt, sour, and bitter. Olfaction is the other "chemical" sense. Unlike taste, there are hundreds of olfactory receptors, each binding to a particular molecular feature.


ILPS 15

Intro - Communication

Consumption Interaction

Organisation and adaptation (processes)‏


ILPS 16

Communication - Types

Dialogue or verbal communication A dialogue is a reciprocal conversation between two or more entities.

Nonverbal communication Nonverbal communication is the process of communicating through sending and receiving wordless messages. Examples: gesture, body language or posture, clothing, hairstyles, etc.

Nonverbal elements in speech: voice quality, emotion and speaking style, rhythm, intonation or stress. Nonverbal elements in text: handwriting style, spatial arrangement of words, emoticons.

Visual communication Visual communication makes use of visual aids. Examples: typography, drawing, graphic design, illustration, colour, etc.

Communication – exchange of symbols

p c p p

Reality Description

Sign Repertoires

c

Communication

•  is a process of transferring information from one entity to another •  is sign-mediated interaction between at least two agents •  both agents share a repertoire of signs and semiotic rules.

p = perceive c = conceive

ILPS 18

The Sign - Saussure

Concept

Mental Perception of Media

SIGN

Signifier Signified beauty

ILPS 19

The Sign - Peirce

SIGN

Representamen (symbol)

Object (referent)

Interpretant (thought) active process

physical or mental entity?

psychological or ontological status?

referred to on a particular occasion? typical or ideal representation?


ILPS 20

The Sign - Arbitrariness

Conventional in the Saussurean sense means that the relationship between the signifier and the signified dependents on social and cultural conventions.

The Saussurean model supports the notion of arbitrariness of the sign by proposing the autonomy of language in relation to reality. Its emphasis on internal structures within a sign system assumes that language does not “reflect” reality but rather constructs it.


ILPS

Semantics – Index, Icon Symbol (Peirce)

Icon A sign which represents its object mainly through its similarity with some properties of the object, based on the reproduction of perceptual conditions.

Symbol A sign with an arbitrary link to its object (the representation is based on convention).

Index A sign which represents its object by an inherent relationship.

Intro – summary

  The key concepts with respect to modelling in KBMS are

  context   interaction   adaptation

  Different media require different modelling approaches
