Introduction In this hyperessay, I will be highlighting the segments of the symposium that stood out the most to me, namely Annie Abraham’s performance ‘Online Ensemble – Entanglement Training’ and two of Blast Theory’s works, ‘Kidnapped’ and ‘My One Demand’.

[EI] Micro-Project #9: Video Selfie
I am anonymous because I like the idea of being mysterious. I am fluid because I am adaptable to my situations. As an extremely camera-shy person, I am uncomfortable appearing on camera. Hence, I am totally fine with the idea of personification. That aside, I also feel that staying anonymous exudes an air of mystery which I really like, hence… Read more →

[EI] Micro-Project #8: I Am My Desktop
This is my desktop as it is, no staging whatsoever. I do my best to keep my desktop neat, but due to the amount of work that I have to get done every day, I usually only organise all my files at the end of each semester. My laptop wallpaper has remained the same for as long as I had… Read more →

[EI] Micro-Project #5 – GL!T(H
My wonderful friends turned me into a Pigcasso! Photoshop-ing and distorting other people’s faces was a favourite past-time of mine, hence I was excited when I hear that this was our next micro-project! This is the first time that I’m distorting, or glitching in this case, alongside with others. Often times when I glitch alone, I would already have an… Read more →
[EI] Micro-Project #3: Telematic Embrace
I am sure that all of us are no stranger to web-conferencing platforms such as Skype and Google Hangouts. Therefore, the experience of seeing one another through a screen in real time is something that we are familiar with. However, what is out of the norm for me is the fact that I have never been in a video conference… Read more →

For school! Posted by Francesca Nio on Thursday, 18 January 2018 https://thirdspacenetwork.com/public-video-wall/ What was my social broadcasting experience like? This is my first social broadcasting experience and I was hesitant about it initially because I don’t like filming myself and hearing my voice on video especially. But to my surprise, the broadcast was pretty fun and I wasn’t as… Read more →
