We learned about 'open source' lecture. Then, let's see outline of today. *what is "resistance" in digital media? *models of politics - open-source software and virus.
First, what is "resistance"? It is tactics and means to oppose the strategies of "The Prince". and countering the techniques and "technologies of power" that impose isolation, distraction and domination through surveillance, entertainment and force. For example, virus, trojan horse, worm, bomb etc.
Second, what is a software virus? A cracker program that searches out other programs and 'infects' them by embedding a copy of itself in them. The virus may do nothing but propagate itself and then allow the program to run normally.
Then, what is a software "trojan horse"? A program designed to break security or damage a system that is disguised as something else benign. And what is "worm"? A pro gram that propagates itself over a network, reproducing itself as it goes. And what is a software "bomb"? to perform some destructive or security-compromising activity whenever specified conditions are met. And what is a "back door"? A hole in the security of a system deliberately left in place by designers or maintainers.
Then, do artifacts have politics? more democratic by being made more "free" or "open"? or the reconstruction of foundational tools or infrastructural "architectural" elements. Lecture of today also finished well. This lectures have got many help. It is very interesting.

12th weeks's Summary
We learned about Donna Haraway's "cyborg manifesto" last week. Today, we learned history and surveillance, review of the capture model, definition of privacy and lessig on monitoring and search this week. Surveillance is close watch kept over someone or something. "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." And we learned, too. Surveillance model versus capture model → surveillance model is built upon visual metaphors and derives from historical experiences of secret police surveillance.
Then, let's know about privacy's definition. 1. the quality or state of beong apart from company or observation 2. seclusion : freedom from unauthorized intrusion 3. archaic : a place of seclusion
See Lawrence Lessig on the merits of inefficiency! - an inefficiency that makes it harder for these technologies to be misused. It is hard to argue that less is more. data mining systems are designed to facilitate the identification and classification of individuals into distinct groups or segments. profits. unacceptable social consequences.
Lessig on architecture of privacy : Life where less is monitored is a life more private and life where less can legally perhaps be searched is also a life more private. Also, let's see about cookies. Cookies are information that a web server stores on the machine running a web browser. Also, let's see about encyption. Encyption is the process of transforming information using an algorithm to make it unreadable to anyone except those possessing special knowledge, usually referred to as a key.
Goals of data mining - data mining efforts are directed toward the generation of reles for the classification of objects, discriminating or distinguishing between two related, but meaningfully distinct classes. Also, let's see about types of data mining. 1. descriptive : compute a relatively concise, description of a large data set. 2. predictive : predict unknown values for a variable for one or more known variables.
Technologies and architectures of privacy-technologies and architectures do not independently determine what is public and what is private technological determinism. Then, we will learn about authorship&ownership next week.
This week's lecture learned that we can adjacent life. It is interesting.

11th week's summary
We learned about humans this week's lecture. The lecture is philosophical and profound so, little hard. Then now, let's see and summarize about human subject.
First, 'media as extensions' is like our nervous system. That's why down information. And ratio of the senses->human's five senses : seeing, touching hearing, smelling, tasting. The, when it connects media, we can be lose a part of power because we are making new media. Let's see about another information. Radio changed the form of the news story as much as it altered the film image in the talkies.
Most people feels hard to write by hands. Computer can be prosthesis. Many people can't write something without computer. Because of media, we can be lose senses etc. Human cannot live without media technology. Today, media is more and more very important. Media technology cannot separate to human.
Let's see about 'medium as prosthesis'. -> we are radically altered by a medium.
continually, media technology can see that emphasized. Also, media studies is the theory and practice of exploring how people and things are connected, reflected, extented, reconfigured, and separated by technologies.
Also, let's know about cyborg. Cyborg is made the most logical. cyborg also must be like human. Most media technology imitate for alike human.
We cannot live without media. up informations see more closely. This week's lecture is more hard than other lectures. PPT is not upload, so, more hard. but, I tried hard. The lecture is hard bur, interesting.
