Foley in Games

This is applicable to animation as well.



This is a very diverse art form one where the artist can bounce from games to film to animation, quite easily.

The Individual: Privacy & Interaction

Dangerous data - The death of privacy

A rather far fetched and detached notion from the idea of Graces Fall but still along the lines of analogue to digital. It discusses the idea of privacy and the birth of the all knowing database, the transfer of the physical to the digital.

An article here talks of the necessities of human interaction.

"The Benefits of Human Touch" by Carmen Jochmann

Another Gaurdian article, this time focusing on something more contemporary. The Wikileaks website. This I have sourced due to its subtext, this is relevant to the message that we are trying to put across. The inability to express what is truly needed to be said and one that separates the system.

"WikiLeaks row: why Amazon's desertion has ominous implications for democracy" by John Naughton

Zeitgeist: Addendum - 2008 by Peter Joseph from ZeitgeistMovie.com on Vimeo.


A brillinat insight to the world we don't know, the one we are not informed of. I sometimes feel that this a one sided view but the ideas of technology, influence and manipulation are a agreat reference.
