- Therese Tierney

Chair: Kiwon Song
Panel: Moonsun Choi , Kyoungho Lim, Younggeun Kim



Issue of my views;

1. What is the meaning of 'Digital techniques(newly something)' in architectural field(another field)?

2. We need adeptation of traditional common idea to create somthing, Is it really?



Comment

We have not a knowledge of all the ologies.

Always we try, but is hard to achievement.

However, what is the problem?

Let's talking about unfamiliar fields.

The outsider occasionally sees the best of the game(way)!!

It is worth attempting for new meaning or different issues,
even though beginner of some fields can not created the works of good qulity.

Keep going on together!

In this article, The authors present an analysis of collaborative games.

chair: Yong-geun Kim
panel: Chee On, Hyun-kyoung Cho, Young-sun Choi

Friendster: Helping people stay in touch, Discover new people.

Vizster: Visualization of Friendster. (Social relationship visualization systems)
- Relation Keyword based on Human Community


2. Discussion

Main Issues
A. Social Network
B. Information Visualization
C. The use of the visualization of soial network

A. Social Network
- Complex systems: we live in this system
- Network theory: Representation of relation (node-link)
- Social network theory: understanding relation of humans
- On-line social network: structures (financial, sexual, friendship...)

=> Virtual community ~~ Visualization method

Networks (shneiderman`s mantra) - Indivisual views (bottom-up? from element to whole) - Whole views (top-down? from whole to element)

Add issue
1) What different between relationship of on&and off line?
2) How to connected on-line social networks?
3) What is Medium of virtual relatioship? (Rebuil based on deceit)

ex) Relation of Unit(Human) ~ vizster
(One of way, Metaphore of Digital Age... ?)


B. Information Visualization
Overall show the connectivity of people.

Vizster purpose: Fun and Familiar?
-> Discovers(stranger) and Organization(acquaintance)

Add issue
1) What is Social narrative? Social interaction?

C. The use of the visualization of soial network

Friendster (breakaway 'Real world')
- positive: Understanding social(human) relationship, find the position of community
- negative: Misuse open_informations, feeling of relative deprivation from virtual community

Add issue
1) Death of privacy and violence from anonymity.

ex) Amazon & Google know about you!! but you can not take cognizance of this situation...
