Shanken Pages 256-290

Having now finished this book, I feel super accomplished.

Anywhome, I love how this section opens up about talking about responsive environments. I love the advice this section has to offer such as:
"Participants should be aware of how the environment is responding to them"
"In order to focus on the relationships between the environment and the participants, rather than among participants, only a small number of people should be involved at a time"

It just explains the complications with new interactive environments and responsive environments, how one can control it and how one can alter it also.

On page 259 Laurel mentions the six elements and the casual relations among them.
Action: Representations are normally thought of as having objects
Character: object bundles of traits, predispositions,
Thought: emotion cognition reason intention
Language: expression voice
Pattern: melody music
Enchantment : spectacle performance basic understanding

Though, they present these in a drama or theatrical sense, they can really be used for just about anything. Just gotta alter them a little bit to fit the subject.

As well all know, this new technology offers new challenges and new experiences especially for us college students. We are learning this technology now, but what technology will be readily available right after we graduate college. WHO KNOWS! It's ever changing for all the reasons stated the last eleven weeks on my life
