selection of television for almost any nationality (Dish.com). DISH has expanded their coverage to rural areas in the United States by launching new satellite based broadband service, aiding to the Federal Communications Commission reports that 14 million Americans who live in rural markets cannot receive broadband. This will allow them to target members who in the past were unable to receive satellite internet services or HDTV while providing them with @dishNET.com email accounts (Buckley, 2012). With DISH adding new items like Sling TV streaming service, and Hopper HD, they are staying up to date with the latest technological changes. Sling TV service offers a selection of major cable channels that can be streamed through smartphones, digital media players and other apps. The Hopper 3tm enables more capabilities with fewer conflicts. Hopper is the biggest update with a 16-turner capability facilitating subscribers the ability to record up to 16 movies, sitcoms, games and more at the same time. Added into the feature the subscribers are able to customize six channels at once with the Mosaic feature, and comes with a new remote with a simplified design with advanced voice recognition (Dish.com).…

family script. According to Byng-Hall (1995), children learn behaviours and family norms from observing parents, and thus demonstrations of favouring music by parents can act as a script that children follow. The script writing can be both obvious and obscure. The situation that my mother forced my sister to learn the piano would be a typical obvious script writing as Borthwick and Davidson (2002) states that parents who had music education in childhood tend to make children receive the same no…

be easily manipulated depending on how certain information has been acquired. The Conversation, The Lives of Others, and Truth in Numbers all record reality using technology. The Conversation uses tape recorders, The Lives of Others mainly uses a typewriter, and Truth in Numbers uses the internet. Technology and the accuracy derived from this source can be deceiving if the technology is manipulative in any way. In The Conversation, Harry Caul is a paranoid, lonely man whose job is to eavesdrop…

An iPhone is a combination of an iPod, a tablet PC and a cellular phone made by Apple Computer that pairs the ease of use of an iPod with robust multimedia, internet browsing, and networking capabilities. Also playing tapes out of a VCR vs. a blue ray player are very different in a lot of ways, a blue ray…

Once a week, I meet up with my friend Michael to talk about some of the bigger ideas that seem to consume the great majority of my thoughts. Our bonfire chats generally last until 9 or 10 PM, just in time for me to catch some of the George Noory show on my way home. How can you not love a talk radio show devoted to aliens and conspiracies? The other night, however, 1290 AM was not coming in too great, so I scanned the dial and stumbled upon a voice that could only be that of a Christian…

Interactive learning has become dominant from a round 2000 and this is due to the increase in the number of people involved in the digital technology and virtual communication. It is a system where the boundary between the educator and the learner means completely nothing and the educators can no longer be regarded as the keeper of…

My Response to Ritchin and Balsamo. From the four reads of the week by Ritchin and Balsamo, my main takeaway from Ritchin was the advancement of digital photography and how it has made it easier for photographers to tell their story through imagery, plus the added effect that tells a false story and Balsamo the unconscious consequence of technological innovations on culture. “Photography, as we have known it, is both ending and enlarging, with an evolving medium hidden inside it as in a…

OVERVIEW: I AM DIGITAL™ 101 The time to bring “I Am Digital™” literacy in the mainstream of American communities is now.

Digital Privacy Without privacy there is no freedom. Conversely, without security there is no country. Imagine a chaotic world where citizens live in constant fear of what could happen to them, because of the lack of safety in their country. Terrorism has especially been an issue in America, and with the growing number of threats, it is impossible to tell when or where domestic attacks may occur. The government should have every right to access digital information of their citizens, to maintain…
