thesis thoughts
i stressed how much i wanted to create something that was reproducible the other day. it isnt simply important to create something that can be used in the future. i like having it be accessable - that is, the less the user must adapt to the technology and the more the technology can exist in the background, the happier i am.
i came into the program wanting to tell stories across media. the further ive gone into this program and research, the harder it has been to continue on this path. more and more, i feel i am working on beuilding the tools that will enable others to tell stories.
thats ok with me.
i see myself graviatating towards some sort of web interface/data mining/hardware creation of some sort. though i would love to be able to make a game/narrative to leverage location and player into the larger piece.

(i must admit i despise link lists, so these are a smattering in no particular order of site i like - either content, programatically, usefully, and other items...)
