The Future looms...

I hope everyone took advantage of the spring break to think about their final projects. Today after the class break we'll have a brief discussion about the options, but as a sneak preview, for those pursuing the trailer treatment option, here are some, but by no means the only, offerings:

*Revolution in Military Affairs - using on-the-road footage from Virtuous War, with JDD
*Synthetic biology — designing of artificial life systems through hypermeda, with Phil Gara
*Terror Media - the history of terrorist use of media, with John Santos

There is also the possibility of working with Koji on political film, Rob Jensen on gendercide, and Chris Lydon on opensource convergences, but these options would require further development/negotation with them. Let's discuss. And come 'armed' with questions today for our military guests....
