Network Media Final

Inspiration: I used to listen to music when I was working or relax,  sometimes I was tired of the same song in my MP3 or iPhones, so I began to listen some music radio station online, in this way I can hear random music, and it will bring more surprise and the feeling of freshness. However , this kind of free style is uneasy to control, although there is some arithmetic to recommend the same style music to audience.

I want to make an app to recommend  songs according the audience choice and taste but still have some space of random. The songs recommended to the audience should be unpredictable but still fit audience' aspiration.

Audience can collect the songs they like and put them in their favorite folder， anytime they can go back to listen it again.

What's more , I also want to build a solid physic music box, which collect all the songs which audience like, they can listen it no mater where they are.

Process:

I connect to spotify's API to use their songs, then i build the function when your press singers name, his or her album will appear on the website, then I catch the image of album cover on the screen, as well as put the title of album.

Inspired by UI pattern- natural language form, I hope audience to fill out a sentence and let this sentence to command a song for the audience.

I want the audience to chose the quantity they want to listen and the style they'd like to heard

Reading Assignment- Class1 Network Media

This week’s reading material was so hard for me to understand! I found out it was a article from 1945, no wonder it was not easy to try to decode his ideas. However, I tried my best to relate.One thing the author claimed is that recording is very important for science. I totally agree with that. How are we suppose to store what we have learnt and communicate it to other people if there is no method of recording? How can we even learn things from the past without recording tools? It is very interesting to read what the author wished back in 1945 from now. He mentioned about the value of photography. It is easy for us to copy and print materials in library today, not to mention we are using CMOS in cameras. He must be very jealous! I really want to show him our world today! Imagine if he see how Internet works. Some of his anticipations and ideas sound really like the prototype of computer and other digital stuffs today. And some conceptions sound really like how our network system is working today. More important, the author realized that it is not hard to provide a good concept, but it really matters can it be practical enough to be produced in a large number. I found the author’s idea and the way he look and think about the world very inspiring to me. Although I still don’t fully understand everything he tried to express there, I understand it is important for designers to think bravely and to look far than anyone else. It is important to be visionary.
