I had to read this one twice. Bleeker’s style of writing seemed a little sporadic at least for me. I wasn’t really getting his train of thought, I didn’t know where he was leading me and mainly the metaphors he used seemed to be all over the place. I couldn’t quickly grasp the material because …

Readings Week 4
Harnessing the Power of Feedback Loops by Thomas Goetz was a very insightful reading for me, and I believe it probably would be for any designer. “The premise of a feedback loop is simple: Provide people with information about their actions in real time, then give them a chance to change those actions, pushing them …

Reading Commentary for Week#4: Calm Technologies 2.0: Visualising Social Data as an Experience in Physical Space Michael Hohl, PhD
I liked how this article explored the virtual world vs the physical world. And what does it all mean in the end? What I concluded was that there sometimes a need to map out who connects with you and the information you’ve shared on the internet. Is there a way to visualize that and if …

A number of the terminologies Merrill used sounded and looked familiar. The rest— not really. Because before entering the program I’ve been doing nothing but …

Reading Commentary Week#4: Harnessing the Power of Feedback Loops by Thomas Goetz
This article has been extremely interesting to read. Mainly because I’ve never encountered the terminology of “Feedback Loops” before.
