    What I'm getting from these is the theme of conformity, or "join us or else." I think that the middle phrase draws out the most from that idea.

    I like the last slogan the best. The middle phrase seems a bit long-winded, while the bottom and top ones get straight to the point. Depending on the visuals in the poster, I think the top one could work well too, but the last slogan has more of an emotional argument.

Interactive art is something that I find very unique, because it is something that has only emerged as a medium very recently. Other new mediums like digital illustration, 3D modeling, or even film, are based on another medium from the past, painting, sculpting, or acting. Interactive art also goes hand in hand with performance based art, in that both are usually experienced through first hand involvement, rather than viewing a product once it’s complete, like a painting or sculpture. Interactive art allows users to experience the art on a very personal level, and in a way, create their own experience based on the way they choose to interact with the piece. One of the works that I found really interesting was Fantastic Prayers, in which users can click to reveal a seemingly endless collection of media. I found that this work was basically a representation of the internet itself, in which people might find themselves on a completely different sight than they had originally intended.

From the Origins of Interactive Art Response

The idea of “cyborg art” was absolutely fascinating to me and brings up many questions about today’s society and the way it is headed. With our continued reliance on technology, it makes you wonder how long it will be until we start to foray into making ourselves cyborgs of sorts. I recently saw an article about Neil Harbisson, a man born with colorblindness that surgically implanted an electronic eye in his head that allows him to ‘hear’ colors. I thought this was incredible, and after watching shows like Black Mirror that speculate on this subject, I wouldn’t be surprised if we start using cybernetic implants for medical or just everyday purposes. I also wonder how people might react to this and the questions it raises about ethics and humanity. If you were able to safely get an implant in your eye that allowed you to use it as some kind augmented reality lens, would you? I was also surprised by the influence that performance art and happenings were able to have on future int

Code of Best Practices Response

This document was something I was really interested in reading as I went into it, copyright and fair use conversations are becoming more and more prevalent in our society, yet often the exact rules of what constitutes copyright infringement don’t always seem to be clear. Something I didn’t think about that was brought up in the document was about how nonprofessional video can be much more easily distributed nowadays, and as such there is more of a chance for these amateur videos to possibly have an affect on established businesses, making knowing these laws even more important. What I was surprised to read was that fair use does not necessarily have an explicit letter of law, but rather it is flexible and able to be changed to apply to different circumstances. I can definitely see how this is a good attribute, as art in particular is a very broad field, so applying one set law to regulate it would be very difficult. However, I also think it’s possible that this kind of system could l
