Articulating architectural design through computational media
This thesis proposes the concept that computational tools can merge two high order cognitive operations for architectural designers. The first cognitive operation being the internalization of displacement (as defined by Kant and Piaget). The second being the construction of a mental Model (i .e. …

From storytelling to story making : children creating stories with tangible computational media
… of their personal stories using Tangible Computational Media (T1CM) - a medium that enables them to design and create physical objects with interactive and dynamic behaviors. Through workshops I observed children's StoryMaking explorations with three forms of TCM: paper electronics, …

Off the page : object-oriented representations
… explored the use of structures inherent to computational media. Additionally, database structures were explored as a key component to information reuse in the documentation process. Two prototype systems are developed to propose alternative methods of documentation using computational media. …

The crystal world: executing a new media materialism
… examinations of the materiality of the technical media, namely the computer, that underpins new media art. Contemporary new media art practice has tended to focus attention on software or hardware interfaces, interactivity and network communications. Whilst explorations of these specific …

Indeterminate liberal form : public space in sprawl
… Public Form and proposes the use of computational media to define and enable new forms of public space in sprawl. In addition, this document puts this theory into practice through a speculative architectural design and a physical installation. Both projects use sound as an expressive …

Sensory Encounters in the Age of Computation
… force of visual information in multimodal media. From the history of haptic interfaces to the data practices of social media communities across the US and China, this thesis uses historical and ethnographic methods to understand how users of quantitative information encode norms about …

Listening in code : process and politics in interactive musical works
… among musicians in taking fuller advantage of computational media produces a strand of interactive, software-based musical works I call open mediational music. This phenomenon stands apart from other types of creative work centered on music and interaction by valorizing the listener's …

The Specter of Representation: Computational Images and Algorithmic Capitalism
… that were invented to accommodate the human eye. Computational images exist as information within networks mediated by machines. They are increasingly less about what art history understands as representation or photography considers indexing and more an operational product of data processing.</p> …

Mediating the Marginal: A Computational Analysis of Representational Hierarchies, Aesthetic Tourism, and Queer Imagination on Instagram
… An ontological trace of visual culture positions media technologies as sites of both regulation of and resistance to racial, sexual, and gender norms.. The rise of computational media and neoliberal sociopolitics has paradoxically both destabilized and bolstered visual hegemony, expanding Black …

In Search of the DomoNovus: Speculative Designs for the Computationally-Enhanced Domestic Environment
… and it has a strong impact on a person’s life. Computational and media technologies (digital and electronic objects, devices, protocols, virtual spaces, telematics, interaction, social media, and cyberspace) become an important and vital part of the home ecology, although they have the ability …

Bio-inspired Design and Information Visualization
… I investigate the state of the art in both computational media design and bio-inspired design through a journalistic and design-oriented approach to create an active survey of these fields. I summerize ideas and opinions from a large set of interviews and design tools providing insights into …

Computational Framing Analysis: Proposing And Applying an Unsupervised Entity-Centric Semantic Relations Approach
This dissertation presents a novel computational approach to analyze how the news media construct frames around certain people or groups in their coverage. The approach centers on entity-centric emphasis frames, focusing on the language used to attribute key entities (e.g., shooters and victims in …
