Creativity and New Media

I made a video highlight tape of some of my blocks from my volleyball season and posted it to Instagram. My Instagram is private so I took a video of it to post here. I had to crop some of the comments because they were inappropriate. I combined my passion for volleyball and video editing when i created this. In addition i added one of my favorite songs to play in the background. I don't have many Instagram followers but this post gave me the most views and favorites that I've ever had.


(UPDATE: the video I initially tried to post isn't buffering so I attached some screen shots)

Users could play with complete strangers or play with their band members if they couldn't meet up in one location. This new media would create a community of musicians. Who would converge together  and collaborate on creating music together. This form of new media w...

P2P

File sharing is as the name implies, a way to transfer data digitally. This can be applied for the smallest files to the biggest. Whether you share the notes you took the other day in class, or a two hour documentary, you're participating in file sharing. P2P file sharing stands for person to person file sharing. The P2P implies that a user is sending the data to another user. Consider the difference between P2P file sharing and buying a song off of iTunes. When you buy a song from iTunes, you aren't interacting with anyone, you're just downloading a song. If you P2P file shared that same song, you, the uploader would send the file directly to the receiver. An example of P2P file sharing is the open source project BitTorrent. According to The BitTorrent Effect, in April 2001 Bram Cohen quit his job and created BitTorrent. BitTorrent overcomes a problem with P2P file sharing: the bottle neck. ISPs will allow users to download files at high speeds but they only let them upl...
