The exercise we did for the first day of class is a good link to this as well. We had to talk about something we did that affected our experience of time. Some people said sitting in class made time drag on, whereas driving in the car can make time go faster. As an example, when you play video games, you can make a case for being "immersed" in the media, losing your standard judge of time, and thus it seems sped up.Danicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140794386933135195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38644188.post-11010278689348081492007-03-04T22:49:00.000-08:002007-03-04T22:49:00.000-08:00The one thing I found fascinating about the cage-l...The one thing I found fascinating about the cage-like sculpture with the mechanical wheels is that even though the source was moving at the constant speed, all other wheels varied. All wheels were connected by one wire, but each slowed down and sped up individually, seemingly independent of each other. And yet, all of them were driven by the same source that was turning with a constant speed.Alex Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16908682971276161513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38644188.post-87437482634756690612007-03-04T13:46:00.000-08:002007-03-04T13:46:00.000-08:00I liked the time exhibit for showing the machines ...I liked the time exhibit for showing the machines and how they move by air or human powered by turning a switch. I found that this was actually similar to Vertov's film when he depicts the machines because even though these machines make squeaky noises we don't know that the machines in his film did not make some sort of noises as well. Because of the music that was played over the movies the entire time. But that when machine in the exhibit where you had to flip the switch so that it would move is exactly like Vertov's film where the workers have to switch the machine on so that it would start.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13349735646786356325noreply@blogger.com
