@edcmooc Does fascination invite us in?
[Bringing #edcmooc artifact discussion to the fore]
Does fascination invite us in? I know that if I see an accident I have to stop myself from stopping and looking (is that just me, am I simply odd?). Or if I witness a spectacle on the street, I will attempt to understand that phenomenon (in some way). My #edcmooc artifact was a very real attempt (in what time I had) to mirror #edcmooc (should have made that more explicit). The layered sound was an attempt to mirror mass voice, and sound content was an attempt to understand that phenomenon combined with core texts. I think if I had more time I would have made voices more clear, but still textural. I also would have used image sound interaction for immersive properties. But all in all it worked for me, and did what I wanted – fascination, sense of unease, and as you say designed to be elusive. All directly associated with my sense of strangeness (and scale) of a MOOC.
