不很冷，不很热，不很干，不很湿。长居北方的我，在这样的气候中，简直是太奢侈的享受了。I am sorry to say that I came back just two weeks ago, and still that I feel difficult to truly 100% understand Jeff’s blog. I am sorry Jeff, but I could say that when I feel the difficulty to understand you, I believe that you are one of the [...]
昨晚做了一个奇怪的梦，而且在梦里感觉是那么的真实Began to play WoW in the Thanksgiving break, I found I have already addicted to it. Last semester, I remember I asked Jeff that why people play games, are they very lonely, have nothing else to do or they are not interested in their surrounded environment? Jeff said no, but [...]
We talked about people creating based on preexisting items instead of creating a brand new object in lass week on Jeff's class.
I could not stop think something about Cost-Benefit analysis. Let’s think about movie industry for a while and think which good movie has no followed serial II,' [...]
I was thinking about shopping experience last night, (just for fun, and sometimes when I could not fall asleep, I do this kind of brain exercise), maybe it is very directly related with your post, sorry about this.
For traditional shopping, the store “designers” promote their business by design some [...]
I know my portfolio site is so terrible, but I just get a headache when I think about to make a new one, because that two words–portforlio site means maybe more than ten hour work! But finally, I could not tolerate [...]
Just forgot the mention that one of my friend Wei said that each of us is a neuron, and the whole human world is a big brain. I really like this metaphor because I was thinking about the connection between human beings, natural world and the artificial world. [...] Eight friends ate and played together in the evening on Friday after Pumpkin Carving. All the chatting remains on the same theme: the meaning.
The conversation began from Dalai Lama. I found that I almost know nothing about him except that he is a Chinese, got a Noble peace prize [...]
O MY GOD, I just realized that I didn't finish my pre-writing until now. However, I did some reflection-on-action work.
After Tuesday's class I decided to do the most time-consuming work: re-read those readings and gather all my notes and those underlined sentences together! It turns out that it is a [...]
Nine friends played Wii games today at my home including sport games and Mario party games. We have four handlers which means that we could have four people play at the same time. When we played those minigames, eight of us were really enjoy. Another one was very busy and [...]
If it is the motion make films living compared with photographs, and therefore gives films overwhelming power to encourage the directors to express and create far beyond record and remind, entice audience to involve beyond just know and accept. What is the motion in HCI? The dynamics in a social [...]
photos as statistic pictures are reminder of the past time, here and then.
Films, a serial of pictures which was called motion plus audio provide a much more vivid scenes to us. And we get a kind of here and now illusion. After we get the illusion, we enjoy them [...]
Six year ago, I listened a lecture given by a very famous music composer, Wang Liping(王立平). He composed all the 13 pieces of music for the TV show "The dream in red mansion" during 1982-84. "The dream in red mansion" originally is a novel's name. It is the best novel [...]
If we think about the process of the language to be formed, isn’t it a phenomenological process? It’s just like the doing and undergoing model. We use our own language as a baby, but nobody can understand, then we learn, accept the language of other people which based on social [...]
These questions show us another aspect of design, theory, progresses, or we can say change: it’s unpredictable character. Although we are always trying to predict the future or the result of some action or design.
[...]In the classes of this semester, and the HCI/D master program so far, I am in the journey to explore the answer for the question: what design is, from both theories and practices. I try to answer it after I read, [...]
I visited the Computer Science and Informatics Poster Session in the evening yesterday. Other two my classmates and I have already worked on a poster for hours for our course project before we went the session. Before went there, I believed that poster should express one theme by using simple [...]
