    Here is another great video series that I recently saw. It's a little older now but super relevant for our class and program.

    I love this. It makes me think about Cassini's class and how we talked about this there. Skeuomorphism is an interesting tool, and was a smart way to introduce the iPhone to the general public, it was easy to understand how to use it because of Skeuomorphism.

    I wanted to share this great documentary with everyone. I watched it right before deciding to apply for the EMAC program and I honestly credit it with helping me make my decision to apply. I hope everyone can find something to take away from it.

    The digital programs look groovy. Some were even developed by graduate students. I plan to use a couple of them in my work.

    Today's tech companies hire social scientists to help them develop, or enhance, the user experience of their digital products. These kinds of gigs seem to fit with the EMAC program.

  • But some linguists and music historians say the reality is more nuanced. For one thing, frequent use of "I" doesn't signal a haughtier sense of one's status but the opposite, according to James Pennebaker, the social psychologist who invented the text-analysis program used in the 2011 study of song lyrics. The higher a person's standing, the less frequently that person uses 'I' words, according to Pennebaker in his book, The Secret Life of Pronouns: What Our Words Say About Us.
  • People who tell the truth use the word 'I' more.
