The blog is your personal reflection, but it should engage,(but really need to reflect readings which websites are posted below) in a bit of detail, with aspects of the required readings( just below of this formation) and other preparations for that . Obviously, you need to have done the readings , and engage with these in the blog posts. That is, don’t just take one word or topic from the week and then have no further engagement with the ideas and events discussed in the readings and other preparations.
You can be creative about this, Your blog posts will have to include responses to reading material, Specifically you will have to respond to the topics .You will need to explore, think through and write about your own pathways through the issues and ideas.
You should briefly publish your reflections in writing, in images, in video form, audio, and
collections of links, feeds and so on (you do not have to use all of these! If you want, you
can choose one and stick to it. It’s up to you). You have a choice of formats for reflection
and publishing, and you can mix up these formats as you go. Your blog can of course link
out to other sites (on, for example, Flickr or YouTube) on which you may have published
your reflections in other media forms than writing. It can also include feeds and links you
are collecting.
You need to think about this. You reflect not only on the things we’re thinking about on the course. You also need to reflect on how you’re going to make this interesting for others, in a sustained way This is “Your demonstrated engagement with the materials/readings/preparatory explorations for that week of the course”.
That’s probably the easy part, if you keep up with the work. The harder but more interesting part is to make this reflection work as a short piece of writing. This is the third criterion, “Your synthesis (bringing together) of the ideas, practices and issues you’re dealing with in that week into a satisfactory form of expression you can publish.” This will require you to develop your own thinking about these issues. You’ll also have to develop your writing (or image creation, audio, etc).
Writing Content should include readings and topic below
Topic： “Global Mnemotechnics”—
Globalising Memory, Thinking and Action
Individual, Social and Global Memory (as well as attention and “protention”)/
Media, Thinking and Acting
First up, what are your assumptions about how thinking processes work? Perception?
Memory? “Protention” (projections into the future)? Feeling and being affected by the
world? Sensation? How do perception, sensation, thinking and feelings relate? What is
consciousness? What is attention?
how your (various) assumptions about all the above make
for different assumptions about media, media change, society and social change? Try to
think through the relations between perception, thinking, memory, protention, etc, in a
variety of media/social contexts.
Thirdly, what do the readings and videos for this topic—concerning embodied and
extended mind, and technics and memory—tell you about memory, perception, thinking/
feeling etc? How might this lead you to think differently about media, media change,
society and social change? Again, try to think through these relations in a variety of
contexts. Many of these ideas are controversial but they are also, now, very common. And
you can of course, disagree, but what are your alternatives? To what extent, and at what
level of human experience, are media technologies part of perception/thinking/memory/
protention/feeling etc. And how do your own assumptions and models come into the
practical realities of media engagements?
Fourthly, consider the impact of the globalisation of media technologies (what Stiegler calls
“global mnemotechnics”), or the increased complexity of media technologies, on human
experience.
Finally, have you changed your understanding of new media, cultural and social change?
What can we say generally about this? When do we need to be more specific?
18Required Readings/Explorations (quite short, but lots of ideas … try and get to
some of the extra resources if you can)
[right here] First up, the extra sections in this course outline for this week are
important reading, as they ground everything else
[online] Stiegler, Bernard (n.d.) ‘Anamnesis and Hypomnesis: Plato as the first
thinker of the proletarianisation’ <http://arsindustrialis.org/anamnesis-andhypomnesis> (you are only required to read some of the beginning, from the start,
down to the words ‘which destroys the world heedlessly.’ After that things get
complex! Those who enjoy a challenge read the rest. It’s actually pretty interesting.
Or, you can skim.)
