“I hope to establish the relation of specific image, object, event or environment to conceptual frames. These frames exist within art and technology and are present in other forms of symbolic and material culture (51).” said by Beverly J. Jones . Actually, Jones consider as the technology change, art form also changed by the technology. There are some relationship between art and technology. On the one hand, art promote graphic design. On the other hand, new technology also always use for the old mode of art.
If we look back to the thesis, we can easily find out there are three historical examples author use in the article. The first example I found is about digital art.“In the 1940’s analogue computers were used to generate the earliest computer graphics and display them on oscilloscopes. Ben F. Lapofsky and Herbert W. Franke were among the pioneers creating these images. Franke’s graphics were phase forms, presented as events rather than as static imagery.( page 52)” Author use this example to how digital art developing. The digital art is improving from past to now.
I think one of the creations that I can image and relate to Beverly J. Jones’s article is google glasses. I consider google glasses change how people see the world. It is so easy to record the videos and take photos for everybody that everybody can become a photographer. People think this technology change the way how artists to create the artworks. Some people got the positive attitude, they think this creation gives motivation for people to create their own artworks. However, some people get negative opinion about this creation. They consider people use the google glasses to create artwork is totally different from the way how photographer use their camera to take photos. Although I’m not a big fans of photograph, I think people should accept the way of new form of art. I understand sometimes new technology might hard to accept by people, new technology challenge people’s mind about how to create art.

Why people want to play game and what’s the different between the game world and the real world? As a game designer, Jane McGonagall fully discuses these problems in the video. In her opinion, people found that their life are difficult, they cannot get the substance their want, so they expect they can get satisfaction in the game. Actually, I’m not a big fans of games, however, I do understand what Jane McGonagall ’s mean. That’s truth, some people are addicted to the games, they prefer to live in the game rather than live in the real world. I trust there are some people want to get satisfactions in the games, but I don’t think people play game means they all get negative affect. I got some friends play game for entertainment. Some of them believe that they can change the real world like the game. The play hard and work hard, try to change their life. Not every people get negative affect from the game. Game also can give positive affect to people. Lots of online game need to do the term work that get accomplishment. So, people can practice how to do the term work in the game and they will do the term work more easier in the real world. In addition, game is other epitome of the real world. The motivation for people to playing game is, they are eager for better things. They need to work hard, become more patience for success in the game. This is totally the same in real world. I don’t consider all the things in the game will cause negative affect for people’s real life. I never judge a thing is good or bad. I think the owner of the good will decide this thing good or bad. So, I consider computer game will cause negative affect or positive affect mainly depend on the player.
