Introduction

My name is Gang Li, a PhD student at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. I'm taking this class due to my curiosity about the impact of digital technology on modern communication and creative expression. I'm interested in the dynamics of people's interaction with information through digital mediums and how such interactions influence the generation, presentation, and accessibility of information.

List of Media

  • Books: Paper or Kindle: The Kite Runner
  • Movies: Theaters or via Internet: The Avengers, Avatar
  • Games: Computer Games:League of Legends; Switch: The Legend of Zelda
  • Social Media: Phone: Facetime, Wechat

Challenge

I found theaters in the U.S. don't provide subtitles for movies, which is an obstacle for me to follow the story. Additionally, when I want to watch a 3D movie, I have to put on 3D glasses, which don't work well with my nearsighted glasses.
