Information Media

This thesis document investigates contemporary forms of information media and their effects on library architecture. The reseach portion of this document concludes with a design project that illustrates a solution to programmatic infill imposed upon academic libraries built prior to the rise of digital media. The casualties of injecting additional porgram elements into older libraries are the print collections. Many such libraries have adopted roles resembling community centres and have lost space devoted to quiet study and book stacks. The driving concept for this project was to return the program of the Ryerson University Libary to a state closer to its original design. By reintroducing lost collections and quiet work areas, the interactive and digitial program elements are forced outside the walls of the original building. This expelled program has been reformatted into a new archetype and is skinned as such, creating an additional university building focused on information exchange.

Information Dispersal

Post-market economies are driven by ownership or shareholding interests. We may consider ourselves to be living in societies driven by investment blocks - there is no doubt in our minds, given our awareness of the information blocks that compose media content, that the interests of these investment quarters in a globalized geo-economy is what determines how news is presented and consumed. What are the characteristics of investment-driven media scenarios? Our concept of media scenario differs from information dispersal models in brand capitalism and media franchise (Chomsky 2002; Golding et al 2012)? The disintegration of values of social responsibility in journalism is also apparent in the rise of investment driven journalism, with its absolute dependence on the mirror neuronal mechanics of social behavior, where the individual likes falling in with performance, and post-truth dialogue. But there are also options and limits of consensus within such discursive practice, and selective attention as the consumer betrays preference for information. We hypothesize that the new information media is a product of investment acts, and is fluid by nature, never innocent, and is always conditioned by local interest factors, and is as Barnett argues in a paper, a simulacrum of shareholder values (Barnett 2009).

Learning By Designing

Pesatnya perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi telah membawa dampak kepada pendidikan, tidak terkecuali di Indonesia. Program pendidikan yang bersifat konvensional sukar dipertahankan seutuhnya, karena tersedianya media dan informasi baru yang semakin banyak dan bervariasi. Salah satu media yang perkembangannya semakin melesat adalah penggunaan komputer. Penggunaan komputer sebagai sarana pendidikan dimungkinkan karena banyak potensi yang dapat dimanfaatkan dari komputer tersebut. Penelitian ini mencoba melihat efektifitas dan efisiensi pembelajaran dengan merancang media komunikasi berbasis web. Situs pembelajaran Universitas telah diujicobakan terhadap tiga puluh mahasiswa. Sebanyak 96% menyatakan program ini sangat menarik dan sangat membantu dalam kegiatan pembelajaran. Selain itu 90% menyatakan program ini dapat mengatasi kebosanan terhadap perkuliahan di kelas dalam bentuk metode ceramah. The rapid development of science and technology has affected education, including in Indonesia. Conventional education programs are difficult to be maintained completely, because the availability of new information media is becoming increasingly numerous and varied. One more shot of media development is the use of computers. The use of computers as a means of education is possible because a lot of potential that can be used from that computer. This study tries to see the effectiveness and efficiency of learning by designing a web-based communications media. The e-learning site has been tested to thirty students. As many as 96% said the program is very interesting and very helpful in learning activities. In addition 90% stated that this program can overcome the boredom of lectures in the classroom in the form of the lecture method.

Government Data

The long evolution of everyday life brought to our heritage the "mountains" of relatively structured data (dictionaries, phone books, hospital data files, government data files, driving licence data, crime data, etc.)). New information "media", physical (such as CD-ROM or DVD-ROM) as well as logical (organizational), such as hypertext, simply crave for mapping these old-fashioned information sources into new shape. This article shows how to achieve that shape automatically using the paradigm of higher order logic programming and particularly the HiLog language.
