Notes Towards Affect Engines
Wed, 02/07/2008 - 10:48 — AdrianMiles, Adrian. "Notes Towards Affect Engines." International Association of Philosophy and Literature. Melbourne, July 2008.
Contemporary theory in its approach to digital media has largely relied upon traditional notions of story and narrative to understand the similarities and differences afforded by digital media. While this work has been invaluable it has emphasised the ways in which things like hypertext may, or may not be, story like and so has examined the new roles of the reader (Douglas 1994; Douglas 2000), and the implications for multilinearity for story sense. (Bolter 1991; Joyce 1995; Joyce 1995; Joyce 1995; Aarseth 1997; Gaggi 1997; Bernstein 1998; Dovey 2002; Landow 2006) However, emerging dominant digital forms juxtapose highly local content and practices with system wide and global combinatory systems.

Web 2 An Introduction (for Science Communicators)
Thu, 29/05/2008 - 14:56 — AdrianAn invited presentation for the Victorian branch of the Australian Science Communicators, May 29, 2008 in North Melbourne (Victoria, Australia).
This is the brief I was received:
"they have no idea what Web 2.0 means but would dearly like to know how, why, when and it [sic] what way it effects the way they do their job."

Rhizome Four: Two Loops and Sound
Mon, 14/01/2008 - 21:03 — AdrianThis fourth rhizome template is based on the first template. It loops two videos and plays a third which is a soundtrack. None are controllable by the user - they all just play.
This rhizome template consists of three QuickTime tracks. Two are intended to be video, which are loaded via the associated XML file.
Rhizome Three: Paired and Sound
Mon, 14/01/2008 - 11:59 — AdrianThis rhizome template provides for 2 video tracks to play independently alongside each other and for a separate soundtrack to be loaded and to play independently of these video tracks.
This rhizome template is the same as rhizome two except that it now adds a soundtrack. The soundtrack, like the video tracks, is loaded via the XML file for this rhizome template.
Rhizome Two: Paired
Fri, 11/01/2008 - 18:44 — AdrianThe second rhizome movie template. This one plays two videos alongside each other in the one video window while also providing individual controllers for each of the video panes.
This rhizome template allows you to create a movie that has two individual video tracks. These are played alongside each other in the one QuickTime Player window.
Rhizome One: Two Loops
Fri, 11/01/2008 - 11:22 — AdrianThis is the first (and most basic) rhizome movie template. It allows you to place two different videos alongside each other. They will autoplay, and loop.
This first rhizome movie, "Two Loops" allows you to place two 320 x 240 pixel QuickTime compatible videos next to each other. Each will autoplay and loop.
