===============================================
some thought about augmented reality (ar)
(before and after sxsw)
===============================================
1 ar is localized
ar -> {x sub y}
2 ar is interference (googleglass)
entanglement
3 ar is distancing (lorenz, ethology, avoidive behavior)
in terms of active engagement
drawing distinction, 'defoliation'
4 ar is technology- and corporate- dependent
capital multiflux jitters, hyper-hyperbole
5 ar is protocol- and codec- dependent
codework internalized
6.ar is clever
ar is w(W)ired
7 ar has the potential for deep history and deep ecology
historiographies
8 ar like tablets creates class distinctions in the school
system
capital / Kapital
9 ar needs to get rid of external in favor of embedded
technologies
on the level of the sensory aegis
10 ar is coming whatever one thinks of it: ar is here
corporate, ar -> {W}
11 ar may be distancing in terms of passive engagement -
think of issues of slaughter, pain, resource consumption,
etc.
image epistemology, bypass surgery, suture
12 ar will increasingly be independent of technological
sophistication on the part of the user
autonomic somaticism
13 military drones are the most sophisticated application
of ar: why are we not making the connection?
tunneling effects, embedded theory
14 w/ googleglass privacy is destroyed: the third person
devours the first person transformed into the second
person
ar will talk not to you but among you
15 does augmentation always improve the quality of our
lives?
lifeworlds and does it matter?
16 ar is useful in specific situations - say, the
location of mines in mine-fields, in surgeries, in
situations that involve specificity and deep knowledge
deep geographies, geopolitics
17 ar is useful as a demonstration of ar, of what lies
behind the ordinary - mark skwarek's erasure of the dmz
but what lies behind is digital, truth is problematic,
anything may be inserted
18 in this sense ar is highly useful as a symbolic
construct
or the symbolic
19 and in this sense the recording of ar for others is
equally useful as a symbolic construct - it presents
the subjunctive
potential individual communality beneath the sign of
capital
20 ar -> digital over or among analog - what are the
phenomenologies here? what are the potentials or
dangers, what entanglements, what flows of capital?
