Flipbook

The concept for this flipbook is inspired by the book in which it is created in: 1984 by George Orwell. The novel revolves around the concept of the all-seeing and all-knowing Big Brother, so the animation is a representation of that all-seeing being in the form of an eye, and the concepts that Big Brother revolves around appears around it to symbolize the brain washing that occurs within the novel.

Importance of the Vacuum Tube

Vacuum tubes were revolutionary in terms of radio, television, and computers. In terms of radio and television, vacuum tubes were essential in terms of broadcasting. They gave these devices the opportunity to cast higher frequencies, allowing them to transmit signals that could be received worldwide. As technology advanced and the vacuum tubes are tweaked, the signals become more clear and more reliable. Eventually, ships are able to use radios over morse code to communicate between one another. Vacuum tubes in relation to computers were important, but highly inefficient. The early computers required many vacuum tubes and consumed massive amounts of electricity because of that. Transistors have now replaced the vacuum tubes for all of these devices as they more efficiently transmit signals than the vacuum tubes.

Grid Art Project

Image
I used tissue paper and poster paper to create this grid art of Cinderella's Castle with a Mickey Mouse in the center. I used the photoshop image below to create it. I took a picture of the castle with the mouse head in it and made a 30x39 pixel image. Since it was black and white, I then painted each pixel a different color in order to make the image come to life. I then took my poster paper and created a 30x39 cm grid where each square became a pixel. I would rip little pieces of tissue paper, ball it up, and then glue it to the grid in order to recreate the image. The finished product is seen above. The black and white castle is the original image that the grid art was based off of.

Response to Incognito Interview

While the human brain functions similarly to one another, each person's brain is unique. I find that to be an interesting concept as Dr. Eagleman applies it to the criminal justice system. He proposes that the addition of neuroscience to the criminal justice system will allow for a more effective system of punishment. Chemical imbalances within the brain can cause people to commit crimes. Many people don't view this as a possibility. We tend to hear of the horrendous crime and immediately assume that the criminal is an evil and despicable person. We don't take the time to analyze and see the outside circumstances. If someone has a tumor in their brain that prevents them from processing their actions, we cannot truly blame them for the crime in which they committed. Other people are born with a chemical imbalance. Punishment may not be the way to solve their issues. They may need therapy or other forms of help in order to prevent them from doing something like this again. If
