Assad's speech suggests the Arab League are in greater disintegration than thought, today's Le Figaro headlines suggest Iran/USA cold war is intensifying, international #occupies are cres·cen·do·ing, Ed Miliband is even more unfit for the role than the Clegg/Cameron coalition, the eurozone crisis continues, NHS reforms are a farce and Harvard Medical School claims you can actually die of a broken heart. (again) overwhelmed this morning about how much has/is/will chang(ed/ing/e). just a regular tweetering morning, then. follow it all on twitter going to walk out of my house into the Wimborne Minster sunshine and take refuge in my media studio....

technologies and cultural perceptions

2010-11-02T16:19:50+00:00

cc cláudia gabriela marques vieira This week, my first year BA (Hons) Interactive Media Production students and I have been exploring the extent to which our technologies determine our cultural perceptions. View my initial lecture on 'Technologies and Cultural Perceptions', part of the Interactive Media strand of our first year course Critical Media Concepts and Contexts at the Media School, Bournemouth University, UK.

'responsible information'

. Because every day should be a Day Against Cyber Censorship, Reporters Without Borders . . Following on from my last post, Jean-François Julliard, Reporters Without Borders secretary general, has posted an open letter to Julian Assange, founder of wikileaks, claiming that the public archiving of the Afghanistan War Logs has set a precedent that, "leaves all those people throughout the world who risk their freedom and sometimes their lives for the sake of online information even more exposed to reprisals," by "unintentionally provid[ing] supposedly democratic governments with good grounds for putting the Internet under closer surveillance."

deep down in time: archiving the Afghanistan war Logs

Julian Assange, the founder of wikileaks Every so often, something happens that makes me want to get involved online a little more than I have done recently. The release of raw material from the Afghanistan war logs by wikileaks, a site that specialises in publishing untraceable material of political or corporate misconduct for the public benefit, is one such event. wikileaks has archived and published over ninety thousand US military internal records of their actions in Afghanistan between January 2004 and December 2009.
