    I liked your project concept, however I did have one question. Would the music played come from the user's own created playlists within some application launched with the device, or would the music be chosen from all available songs within the application's database (like Pandora)?

      There are various ways of getting music off the internet and collaborating with those applications like Spotify definitely is an option. The core of this project is the software algorithms that helps to choose the musics and the bracelet to detect physiological changes. So it is supposed to work with some kind of music database. Sorry that I did not made it clear in the presentation.

The first event I attended was a series of talks on the topic of Eco Materialism and Contemporary Art. The main focus has been on the social and environmental issues and how are they being portrayed with modern arts.  I arrived the auditorium while during the talk by Ms. Linda Weintraub was talking about the praying robots. It was a really interesting topic about Eco-Arts and was very closely related to our readings. Her key point was about technology advancement and human’s dependency on technology. Indeed, since the industrialization revolution, we have enjoyed so much benefits from the technology advancements and are believing in technology more blindly than ever. Robots are tireless and precise at work which make them a better choice than human. Under the current technology, we cannot employ robots to do everything. However, as technology continue to grow, more automation of industry will happen and eventually a full automation society may be achieved. What happen to u...

2 Cultures

Image
Science and art were once regarded as separate components of live. Especially during C.P. Snow’s time, thus he used the term, “two cultures”(1). However separable and unrelated they may be, according to Snow, these two “galaxies” will always have a, “clashing point” (17). Like the photo on the left, although there is a distinct boundary between the Baltic Sea and North Sea, taking a photo of it then explain it with science is a perfect illustration of the joint power of the two cultures. Indeed, art and science meet at our daily lives. As students at UCLA, regardless of our major, we are forced to take the numerous General Education courses which are designed to expose us to the different aspects of our world. Although we have the North and South campus saying, all students have been to both side of campus for various class. Also, in Victoria Vesna’s article Towards a Third Culture and Kevin Kelly’s article The Third Culture , they introduced technology as the “in-between” t...

NanoArt

Example of NanoArt NanoArt is a new art that combines science and technology. As its name suggests, NanoArt are done at nano-level. So it is only possible with the use of modern technology that allowed us to see at nano-level. Nanotechnology is about engineering at molecular level. It was first introduced by Richard Feynman in 1959. He did not bring up the term “nanotechnology” in his lecture “There’s plenty of Room at the Bottom”, but he suggested the idea that scientist could build things at atomic precision(CRNANO). Since then, many work have been dedicated towards creating machines at molecular and methods to observe at that level. One application of nanotechnology is on the skin-care and beauty products. These products are more related to us since most of the people uses some kinds of skin-care and beauty products on a daily basis, especially the females. Sunscreen contain titanium dioxide and zinc oxide nanoparticles, which are highly reflective to protect our sk...
