New
media projects by 11 ART 240 Digital Processes students responding to Marshall McLuhan’s ideas of the global village from his seminal book The Medium is the Massage. Writes
McLuhan, “Ours is a brand-new world of allatonceness. “Time” has ceased,
“Space” has vanished. We now live in a global village…a simultaneous
happening…we have had to shift our stress of attention from action to reaction.”

Olivia Rowe- Confession
A film about a girl trying to confess to the person she likes exploring anxiety and love through a variety of digital (and non-digital) mediums.
Hannah Ganzel- Ach Mein Gott

Michael Hubbard- Never Lighter
A short experimental pseudo-horror film featuring Ridley Tankersley as a college student who has become too entangled with the distraction of his computer and is slightly detached from reality. Meanwhile, another college student played by Ben Meunier takes notice that his social life has also become mired in the occasional folly of modern technology.
