Week 1 - Follow up on digital determinism

My first week in EDCMOOC was beyond exciting! It was amazing !!
So I tried to organize my experience from the first week's theme " Digital determinism- looking to the past".
I thought  about an image and tried to make it .
Well, here it is!!!( actually it's my first attempt to create an image on a digital programm, so I initially used bitmap - not very nice graphics though...)
Program that I used to make the picture: Bitmap.
Programs I used to fix and add effects on the pic : Pixlr, picmonkey ( cloud applications)
Sites I used to find photos : CC search engine, google images, ficklr.
The theme is " Determinism? Not so much".
As you can see the human's mind and the computer output have a common image : society. Meaning that social systems ( the images on the human mind is the tree levels, technoeconomic,social and philosophical levels of society). of the real world are interacting with digital media ( youtube, twitter, e-mail,facebook) and create a digit-real society in the digital networks and in human contact through the computer system ( that's why an image is repeated )

  1. Nice image Ioanna!

    It's great to see you working with images early on, good practise for the final assignment. Like how you have used the same image to comment on determinism. Also,the big yellow head is kind of cool!
