Jones and Fox

This article definitely makes me laugh.  I was with my grandfather over the summer and it was so funny, he kept pulling out his droid and playing with apps and checking his emails. While my grandmother on the other hand has the same cell phone that she had from about 5 maybe more years ago and it is never turned on.  I notice that my parents and the older generation loves to check their emails. my mom checks hers everyday. I notice they like chain emails...where as i hardly ever check my emails only recently i have started for school but my regualr email address i haven't checked in weeks. I use Facebook and texting to communicate with people if i need to talk to them.

We Make Money Not Art

Collective Intelligence  

The idea behind the show was to create a genuinely interactive experience where children could be a spy for a day. The journey takes them from a training area, where they must hone their skills before trying to infiltrate the mysterious OSTECK Corporation on an undercover mission, where they will spy - but also be spied on. It concludes with an escape from a high-tech surveillance area. To unite the exhibits in a compelling and convincing spy narrative, the museum worked with people from the Shunt Theater Collective, a Former M16 (the UK Secret Intelligence Service) officer, and sci-fi writer Cory Doctorow.
                     
The exhibition is not all about fun and gadgets, Luckybite developed a whole area of the exhibition around everyday interactions, which have been modified in novel ways to invite the public to take a critical stance and reflect upon the implications and ethics of spying and surveillance: should parents be able to track kids on their mobile phones? Is it okay that paparazzi snap celebrities on the beach? Surveillance cameras makes you feel secure but would you still welcome them if your boss had some installed in your office?
