Paper 3 Idea and Reading

For my paper, I am thinking about doing it on bullying.  The topic is not set in stone.  I am still trying to figure out what I want to do for my paper.  In fact, I have not thought much about it.  I was more worried about the ARG presentation.  So, the paper could change topics sometime again.

As for the reading, it was talking about the serious games.  The games that touch upon certain controversies or worries.  For instance, running out of oil in the future is pretty likely to happen sometime soon.  I was impressed at the ideas of having a game set like World Without Oil.  This “game” basically predicts a future without oil.  Oil is used for practically everything in the world and is the reason for just about all of our technological advancements.  Obviously, having no more oil would a death blow to us all.  WWO is where it steps in then.  It prepares us all for the inevitable loss of oil by envisioning a world without oil.  Players take and prepare by creating gardens, riding bikes, or even doing laundry by hand.  So, the game makes you develop your survival instincts because we would all be forced to do so when oil runs out.

I like the idea of serious games.  It is amazing by making whatever it is into a game can help us become better at whatever it is.  Granted, some of them might be useless to certain individuals.  Simple preferences, right there.  But, the serious games are still a great idea.  If worried about a certain topic or controversy, create a game or join a game already set up and then help the world that way.

Those kind of sensors of some video cameras change in in the area of contrast, while others utilize a beam with infra-red (IR) light, especially in low light. Higher specification cameras sometimes use a combination of both devices and probably have Face Priority AF where the digital camera can ‘See’ a face as you concentrate only upon that.
