===Hertzian Tales | chapter 1 and 2===
 
The first thing that got me thinking was the role of the designer as an semiotician (a translator of objects?). Making a logical design that could be used without thinking about it. I get the appeal of a semiotic design, we all want to feel smart and semiotic design makes that possible. When I think about it, it seems like all the objects I use are trying to hide their complexity from me so I can feel smart. For instance apple, the iphone does not invite it's owners to understand and explore the technology in their own way. Design is too often used as a way of limiting the user in understanding and exploring their object. In a way I think this relates to the enslavement Dunne talks about, the enslavement to concepts of use which the machine (and perhaps society) dictates.
 
  
It's interesting to think about the concept of use. How a designer / company / producer can make a product so understandable without giving any away any of the technological workings. How we accept the way we have to use and object and how a creative person could spoil the picture of how an object should be used. Also interesting is the mindlessness habits in which we use machines, think about endless scrolling on social media.
 
  
Design is used as a tool to make society more ready for innovating concepts, by basing it on familiar objects. I don't know how I feel about that, it feels like the designer is becoming a slave to the comprehension of the every day men. Design is seems must be understood rather than interpreted. (Critical design: Asks more questions that it gives answers >> << Affirmative design: Evolution of products, not reinventing the wheel)

===<span style="color:#ffffff">QUARTER 9</span>===
  
Makes user-friendliness us lazy and incompetent of understanding the objects in our everyday life.  I agree when Dunne talks about how the potential of new aesthetic experiences should not be dominated by machines expressing human and animal like behavior. We don't need to stay in the recognizable, we should stimulate and be stimulated to think about new and modified reality.  The electronic object does not have to be pleasing and fulfill our expectations, it can surprise and provoke. In his books Dunne states that we, as designers, need to leave behind the desire to model the new world of electronic products in our own, human, image. One can wonder if it is possible for us to let that desire go.
 
  
User-unfriendliness does not have to mean user-hostility. I never thought about the poetic function of langue as user-unfriendly. In it's everyday use language is practical, informative and instrumental, the words are “transparant”. The poetic function of language give words a certain opacity, because the writer is no longer passing information or seeking to instigate action. Your know language can all of the sudden appear strange, unfamiliar and unknown.
 
  
I don't think this short text covers all the information given in the first two chapters of Hertzian Tales but these are the subjects that triggered my brain.

If a man swallows it at once, he will become very fluent and wise, and will also be able to overcome al his opponents in arguments.  But the water-ousel has power to help in other way. For not only does he make people eloquent, but he also makes all who swallow his heart prosper in wealth far above their neighbours.

For my examples I searched for an illustrative approach instead of illustrators. As I see now my examples are more in the field of radiation than radio. My first example is tree drawing by Tim Knowles. I found this very interesting because of the analogue approach. The result is a illustration of that day wind movement. The second example is Nervous Tree by Kristof Kintera, an electromechanical sculpture. I visited his exhibition in the Kunsthal and was intrigued by the trees. They move very weird and very explosive. The third (last two) example is a dance performance and the Smart Wall FLOW 5.0 by Daan Roosegaarde. I put these two together because of the similarities and difference. Both are performance pieces relying on the performer and the spectator. They react to the presence of the human, this is where the difference is. The Smart wall really reacts and the dance performance is calculated and seems to react.
+
Is there a scenario where this technique would be used worldwide?
  
=====Personal examples=====
+
For instance war, people are disconnected from loved ones. The only way to see if they are okay is to check their heartbeat.

4. In what context do you forsee the final result situated in (commercial product/service, gallery object/installation, public intervention, experimental publication…. ?

Depends a lot on the way Kenah chooses to go. It can be some sort of performance captured in film, presented as an short movie in a gallery. It also could be an advertising campaign, or just a really really cool art project.

5. What weakness or threat should be urgently addressed?

Wi-Fi pacemaker can call doctor at 2AM

"In the future, these pacemakers may be placed not just for people with slow heartbeats. We may be monitoring high blood pressure, we may be measuring glucose, we may be monitoring heart failure," he said. "There are literally dozens of physiological parameters that now, with this wireless technology, we can leverage for the future of monitoring. So it is not just a rhythm monitor but a disease monitor." Such systems have also been shown on the likes of the iPhone, with the LifeScan App from Johnson and Johnson one of the flagship demonstrations at the recent iPhone 3.0 firmware upgrade presentation.

‘The water-ousel came down from heaven. He is of a black color and lives along the water-courses. His heart is exceedingly wise, and in speech he is most eloquent. When therefore he is killed he should immediately torn open, and his heart wrenched out and swallowed. This should me done before it gets cold or damaged in any way. If a man swallows it at once, he will become very fluent and wise, and will also be able to overcome al his opponents in arguments. But the water-ousel has power to help in other way. For not only does he make people eloquent, but he also makes all who swallow his heart prosper in wealth far above their neighbours. The person who is fortunate enough to swallow one is called by the special name of Chikoshinninip epirika guru, i.e. ‘the person who has gained a charm’. For this reason the water-ousel is to be worshipped and has inao offered to him.’

questions

Why would we want this personal data online?

Intrigue

Spiritual life source


What would it mean if we can monitor each others heartbeat?

Control over loved ones?

Feeling comfort in each others heartbeat? >> some spiritual meaning?


How could the data be used?

By government?

Health insurance?

A ‘SMART’ house? << Lights turning on and off / Music related to your pulse / mood lights

As an social status (the better your heart rate the more options for succes)


What would be the consequences?

Is there a scenario where this technique would be used worldwide?

For instance war, people are disconnected from loved ones. The only way to see if they are okay is to check their heartbeat.
