We are collecting data all the time, we refer this to as ‘Big Data’. Eventually the over come of data will take over and over flow because the amount will be too much to comprehend. Infographics is a new way of displaying information/ representing data. Deb Roy presentation on TEDTALK called ‘record your life’ shows an example of this through recording moments of his sons life, growing up and having a inside look at what happens daily in the life of a child. During these years, he gathered information and data through recording speech movements and influences of the company and whereabouts of the home. Using this recorded information the data has even showed when Debroy’s son spoke his first words. This idea has become known to many varieties of people and has shown how this method is more fascinating and creative than just gathering photo’s for a family album. Here is the video clip of the seminar:

“Inspiration is inseparable from the people who are creating it”
The Inter web is a way of linking/ communicating with the world through images and data, while the internet is just a form of communicating. The Sarnoff loop is a demonstration of how everything is broadcasted. For example the loop has a certain radius of 144 point that only make communication available for one on one. And it can grow and grow by sharing more information and expanding its radius so it could be spread to more than just one person which is the stage of Metcalf is developing further and further so that is then re-looping. This info graphic was easier to understand and to contemplate the term of inter web and how it is processed and shared. We use technology everyday to communicate in ways without even knowing that we are.

This is from the fact that everybody has no time for television as we are all using our smartphones or macbook’s as a source of entertainment. We all done a poll about the different sources of connections that demonstrate our use of time. Example:
How many hours we spend watching tv?
Playing games?
On the internet?
On the mobile phone?
And how many texts do we send a day?
As statistics show with the answers that we received from the poll, it explains that a majority of the class mainly spend the time either on the internet or on the smartphone, and even then we would use the internet on our phones.
We were also asked about these other two topics of:
Do we need to be face to face with people to communicate?
Does hours of unsociable behavior behind a computer playing games or using the internet do any harm?
No, because we are always connected to everything, therefore it would not cause harm to how to socialize.
The generation of technology today can now read information that will be of use and will help you. Technology can connect to other forms of technology to make it activate such as the new Aibot x6 which can only activate by an ipad or iphone. This device can raise a large security alert which can invade private spaces within the region and is also used as a spy gadget. By watching a video clip of how the device actually works, I was impressed with how clear and detailed the camera is at such a high distance.This is an example of the new Aibot x6:
