    Digital Praxis Seminar Fall 2014 - Spring 2015

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, A Process Model for Design

    What I’m thinking is how could a non-coding DH scholar survive in DH area where the topic eventually touches down with coding or SC knowledge. I’m not saying a DH scholar has to learn how to code but at least he […]

    Digital Praxis Seminar Fall 2014 - Spring 2015

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, Living History

    I have a programmer friend, and his slogan is “why I am smart, because I’m a programmer!”.
    And sometimes in a group chat that our friends join together, he and his programmer friend will send a line of codes as […]

    Digital Praxis Seminar Fall 2014 - Spring 2015

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, And so it begins.

    Chris, I can feel your complex. One day after I googled “MBA”, the next day my whole webpage’s AD parts were about “MBA programs”. And even worse was even the video ad at the beginning of my youtube video was the […]

    Inventing the Self

    Even when you’re overdoing a good thing, it will become bad eventually.

    In God Jr,  Jim, the father, was searching for meaning and healing in the wake of his son’s death, which he felt responsible for. He tried […]

    Inventing the Self

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, I share, therefore, I am

    Speaking of the text thing, you reminded me of when I was in college, I skyped my suitemate next door. She skyped me back, and we had this skype conversation for 10 minutes when we were just 10 feet away from each […]

    Inventing the Self

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, A scary proposition...

    You made me think up this question: whether we overact or not when we meet new technology. Think about the self-driving car, I do not think people have accepted it yet, which is like the television in 1950’s and […]

    Inventing the Self

    McCarthy and Wright’s intent for the book was not to develop a theory of experience with technology. They suggested that the experience can interact with sensual, emotional, volitional and imaginative aspects. […]

    Inventing the Self

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, Miller/Viegener

    I picked the same sentence from Miller, I think it is very true when I read the 2500 things.
    Even though things Viegener writes are random, it is still so difficult for people actually write down 2500 of them. […]

    Inventing the Self

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, A mosaic of anecdotes...

    Actually, you can conduct a story, based on those details he provides. But there won’t be a uniquely correct answer. While we THINK we structure the story of HIM, we are actually making story of our own. The 2,500 […]

    Inventing the Self

    A few months ago, I was taking train 1 and seated opposite a woman with her headphones connected to her iPod, which was presumably playing music, whilst her mouth formed words that could not be recognized. Her […]

    Inventing the Self

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, Wray & McCarthy-Jones

    I think Wray tried very hard to present the book based on his experience in writing the book in a train station where he tried to tried to fit in the character and background he set for the story (we see here from […]

    Inventing the Self

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, Lowboy, McCarthy-Jones, Foucault, Hustvedt (with undertones of Noe)...too much coffee

    “at least recognize that the notion of a “true self” is a social construct” and Noe, whom you mentioned in the title made me think of Noe’s idea of environment and self-consciousness. In class, we had a short […]

    Inventing the Self

    Instead of reading a fully fleshed out theoretical argument such as those we have been reading over the previous few weeks, this week I feel as if I’m reading a psychological test, and the wheel that is supposed […]

    Inventing the Self

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, Crossbreeding

    I really like the way that you connect this week’s reading with Damasio and Noe. When i was reading the part from Barclay and Smith, I thought about Damasio as well! Speaking of the language and concept formation, […]

    Inventing the Self

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, Self as Personal Narrative

    McAdam’s first chapter reminded me of the reading from first week, Eakin’s autobiographical consciousness. The personal myth is constructed with personal history, which is like a autobiography. And because of […]

    Inventing the Self

    Q: How will you response to Henry Molasion?

    Noe: Even though part of the brain is removed, such a person could still act consciously like other normal people. Consciousness is not in the brain; it requires […]

    Inventing the Self

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, The 'Conscious' Performance

    I also very like the way Damasio writing comparison but it’s when he tries to distinguish two similar concepts and it’s much easier when actually tries to explain them separately:

    “Protoself with its […]

    Inventing the Self

    Yitian Liao commented on the post, What we think about when we think about ourselves....

    I agree with what you about his structure is efficient but it’s after you start following with his step. I have admitted when he starts talking the core consciousness and extended consciousness and follows up with […]
