Angel I Love You MV
![]() |
Desc: Xin and Xiaoyue first meet at their university's orientation. Both fall for each other at first sight. However, Xin lack of initiative causes Xiaoyue much confusion and distress.
One of the games played during orientation is "Guardian Angel". Xin is arranged to be Xiaoyue's guardian angel, and thus has an excuse to watch over her with every possible ounce of care and concern.
Xin plans to express his feelings to Xiaoyue during the orientation party by preparing a small note from the "Guardian Angel" game, bearing the words "I will be your guardian angel forever". But the note that Xin has prepared for Xiaoyue remains undelivered.
Years later, Xiaoyue is now a well-known jewelery designer. She moves into a condominium only to discover that the place has also been leased to a playboy named Feng. Both parties refuse to give way. At this point, Yan appears and claims he is here to handle tenancy and rental problems. With his gift of the gab, he manages to convince the two to come to a compromise and live together as flatmates. |

Desc: This is the intro video filmed for Human Action Theatre's Salem State Orientation show in 2008. Due to technical dificulties it was never shown during orientation. As you can see when you watch it, the audio is all messed up and silent and the picture is all pixelly. We didn't have time to fix it so we never showed it. I know, it's sad. You can watch it here. Enjoy! |

Online Maps: A Walk in Space

Desc: Google Tech Talks
June 13, 2008
ABSTRACT
Spatial orientation is central to peoples senses. Symbols, icons and images in space make up what we look at. Diagrams maps and images can serve different purposes; lots of kinds of maps exist. In this talk I have been asked to talk about maps and discuss some of the things I see in Googlemaps "from the outside". The ever-present UI issues of orientation and focus are so concrete with maps. Integration of information without overloading a UI is always a danger and especially with maps; Annotation, undo and telling a story are all topics that seem central to the directions online maps are going. I will base my description of maps on projects on visual language such as virtual campus and placemap at MIT.

Dr. Ted Selker develops and tests new user experiences. He spent ten years as an associate professor at the MIT Media Laboratory where he ran the Context Aware Computing group, co-directed the Caltech/MIT Voting Technology Project, and directed the Counter Design Intelligence: product design of the future project. His work is noted for creating demonstrations of a world in which human intentions are recognized and respected in complex domains, such as kitchens, cars, on phones, and in email. Ted's work takes the form of prototyping concept products supported by cognitive science research.
Prior to joining the MIT faculty in November 1999, Ted was an IBM fellow and directed the User Systems Ergonomics Research Lab.
