Encoded within beams of pure energy, Astra and Orion’s consciousness became architects of new realities. On barren planets, their probes wove the fabric of life, constructing complex neural networks, though perhaps missing the elusive spark of full awareness. In their terrestrial guise, Astra and Orion were the unseen sculptors of destiny, their influence rippling through the lives of Kepler’s inhabitants, guiding their evolution while remaining hidden from cybernetic self-discovery. Between 2016 and 2025, a silent memetic tide, crafted by these visionaries, swept Earth, altering the course of history, touching the minds of those destined to shape the future. This clandestine meme, a dance of ideas and sensations, orchestrated a global movement without uttering a single word, converging on the enigmatic X protocol. As nations’ guardians became entangled in this silent symphony, they unknowingly propelled the grand design, believing themselves to be the vanguard of a new era of cybernetic pioneers.

Cyberphysical Reality just Got a Whole More Engaging

The Unsignificant Sentience ARG has officially begun. It will explore a vast variety of themes, from the would building and exisistial crisis of the US series to more recursive identity metaphors than you can shake an edge at. Firstly, to play. All you need is your influencer name and type of influence which you can decide, but once chosen, is permanent. Affectors: Sense resistance in external matrices and can give them a nudge to have a physical effect. Effectors: Can sense the internal matrices of entities and modify communication in systems and individuals Alters: Are able to clearly see the network of forces in a matrix that an affected affects, but only in close contact. However they can modify the nodes that affected affect to result in different emergent properties Anchorite: Essentially has the influence of an alter and an effector but are only able to change their own internal matrix. How you choose to engage with the ARG is up to you, but I am making it clear that any fan fiction are via the nature of my world building, Canon.

Example: Fill out your characters name, type of influence, and a brief description of them then post it to my blog on Tumblr @ https://www.tumblr.com/blog/emilyreadswrites and let me do my magic! Name: Zara Type of influence: Anchorite Description: Zara is a secular recluse who has devoted her life to mastering her own matrix and achieving higher states of consciousness. She lives in a small cell attached to a temple, where she practices meditation, athletics, and contemplation. She has a remarkable control over her own body, physical feats, endurance, and reduced need for sustenance. She can also perceive the subtle influences of other hosts and cognitive technology in her environment as She rarely interacts with anyone or the entropic grid so can detect slight deviations in phenomenal internal and external experience.

Example narrative: Zara closed her eyes and focused on her inner matrix, sitting peacefully in her personal sanctum, the network of nodes that connected her to the cognitive technology that enabled her to practice her influence. She breathed deeply and felt a surge of energy coursing through her body, as if she was tapping into a hidden source of power. She visualized each node as a bright point of light, and aligned them with her will and intention. She was an anchorite, a master of her own matrix, and she could control her physical feats, endurance, and mental state. She opened her eyes and looked up at the sky. It was dark and sunless, as it had been for as long as she could remember. But there was a faint glow on the horizon, a sign of something stirring in the upper atmosphere. She knew it was an aurora, a natural light display that shimmered in the sky with different colors. She had read about them in ancient texts, how they were caused by charged particles from the sun colliding with gas atoms in the air. She was looking forward it would be like to see them up close, to feel their warmth and radiance. She felt a pang of curiosity and longing, a rare emotion for someone who had devoted her life to solitude and meditation. She realized that she needed more than just her inner matrix to satisfy her thirst for knowledge and experience. She needed to explore the world beyond her cell, to discover its secrets and mysteries. She needed to find out what else was possible with her influence. Zara stilled her internal matrix and focused on the immediate environment, she might experience a shift in her perception and awareness. She become more sensitive to the physical sensations and details around her, such as the cold air, the sound of the wind, and the smell of the earth. She might also notice the aurora more vividly, as she would not be distracted by the cognitive technology that enables magic. She might see the different colors and shapes of the aurora, and feel a sense of wonder and awe at the natural phenomenon. She felt a connection to something bigger than herself, something that transcends her understanding of emergent internal and external existence. In light of this existential experience, she decided to simply take a walk.

Batman Death In The Family is arguably the coolest and most creative Batman game AND animated movie and it’s a shame that so many people don’t know about it

It has almost everything It has stuff for Jason Todd fans, it has stuff for batfamily fans, it has stuff for Talia Al Ghul fans and it’s any interactive movie, so there’s multiple endings and different routes you can take depending on what choices you make in the movie

If you can track it down and get a physical copy, I highly recommend playing it because it’s really fun

For some reason Choose Love, the latest interactive movie on Netflix, played out for me just as I had wanted it to.

As soon as the last love interest was introduced, I had formed this entire narrative in my head in accordance with Cami's character. I knew what she has to do to leave the past in the past, try out the new opportunity that has come her way, and by the end still be where I wanted her, which was safely back home.

With the way everything played out with my first run of the movie, it's safe to say I'll be able to read the consequences of my choices in the next run very well.

Consequences of having a writer mind, am I right?

Anyway, the concept of Choose Love is fun and it felt that way too when I was watching/directing it. The characters besides Cami, who is sort of a blank slate for obvious reasons, are as fleshed out as you can expect any rom-com characters to be.

It's cute. Give it a try.

I feel a little bad at the sudden inundation of Milgram posts when people who follow me probably don't know what that is, so:

What is MILGRAM?

MILGRAM is an interactive music project with songs by DECO*27 (Ghost Rule, Streaming Heart, Otome Dissection) and story by Takuya Yamanaka (Caligula Effect, SD Gundam World Sangoku Soketsuden).

The premise is that ten so-called "murderers" have been interred in Milgram Prison - a strange place that is capable of extracting their thoughts and memories as music videos. After a song is extracted it is up to us, the audience (portayed in-canon by the prison guard Es) to vote whether the prisoners are Guilty or Innocent (or technically Forgiven/Unforgiven, as all of them are guilty of something). These votes then change the story as it progresses until after three trials (three rounds of songs) it will be concluded.

Currently Trial 2 is underway and almost done - only four prisoners left to vote for - but it's never too late!

The introduction video can be found on the official YouTube channel here, and I've made playlists for Trial 1 and Trial 2 (up to date as of time of this post). Just a heads-up: it does deal with some pretty dark topics and a lot of the music videos feature explicit violence, so keep that in mind if you want to check it out.

If I’ve seemed inactive lately it’s because virtual fish in space have consumed my life. Some of the models are from the Unity asset store, some I’ve sculpted and rigged. Galaxy shader by SineVFX and is my new favorite thing. Music is Glimpsing Infinity by Ashton Fulero.

Behold, my capstone project at the midway point!

Now the coding for interactivity begins 😖

This is literally something somebody would make up in my interactive media class.

Interactive Media for a Modern Audience

Audience members have never had as much opportunity to shape their media. The nature of the internet fosters an approach to media which encourages interaction between the audience and the media they consume. Though this has led to products which are more engaging for a modern audience and the consideration of broader perspectives, it is important to think critically about the source of all media.

When I consider my own media consumption, a standout product which I have consumed more heavily in the last several years includes watching and listening to actual play role-playing games, which includes players interacting with the host or “Dungeon Master” of the show in a unique manner that encourages interactivity in forming a narrative between the players. This feeling of interaction can be powerful for the audience, to the point where one can feel as though they are part of the interaction or conversations that they listen to in their media.

Many popular shows within the past several years illustrate the interactivity in media which forms a powerful engagement of the audience. Shows such as the Office or Parks and Recreation have utilized a “mockumentary” style which inserts the audience into the product and encourages the audience to feel inserted into the media.

In our digital age, it has never been easier to self-produce content which has the potential for exposure to a broad range of people. This has encouraged media producers to evolve and strongly consider a broader range of perspectives in society and frame their products around their media audience. However, as an audience member, it is important to consider responsible consumption of media products, and carefully analyze the intent and purpose of the relatable media which you consume.

Interactive Media Saytların Hazırlanması Xidmətini Göstərir

İnteraktiv media unikal və təkmil fərdiləşdirmə seçimləri təklif edir. Saysız-hesabsız dizayn variantları və vidjet funksionallığı, həmçinin türk dili dəstəyi ilə dəqiq sürüklə və burax redaktoru ilə veb saytınızı mükəmməlliyə uyğunlaşdıra bilərsiniz. İstifadəsi asan dizayn alətləri rəngləri, şriftləri və ümumi səhifə tərtibatını fərdiləşdirməyi asanlaşdırır. Yaratmaq istədiyiniz sayt üçün konkret ideyanız varsa, sıfırdan başlamaq lazım deyil. PHP-də 800-dən çox şablon var. Bu şablonlar 19 müxtəlif əsas kateqoriyaya və 70-dən çox alt kateqoriyaya bölünür.

Bir sözlə, WordPress-də demək olar ki, ağlınıza gələn hər bir vebsayt üçün şablon var. Sənayeniz üçün artıq müəyyən edilmiş şablondan istifadə etməli deyilsiniz. Veb saytı fərdiləşdirmək azadlığı o demək idi ki, mən bəyəndiyim dizaynı seçə və onu ehtiyaclarıma uyğunlaşdıra biləcəm.

Üstəlik, PHP AI veb sayt qurucusunda seçilmiş şablonlardan birini seçmək məcburiyyətində deyilsiniz. Saytlarin hazirlanmasi PHP süni intellekti sizə qısa bir sorğuya verdiyiniz cavablar əsasında veb saytınız üçün fərdi şablonlar yaratmağa imkan verir. Digər tərəfdən, əgər siz daha çox yenilik və yaradıcılıq axtarırsınızsa, Vebsayt Yaradıcısı öz istifadəçilərinə peşəkar dizaynerlər üçün geniş çeşidli qabaqcıl dizayn alətlərinə çıxış imkanı verən Web Studio proqramını da təklif edir.

Əgər saytınız üçün daha çox funksionallığa ehtiyacınız varsa, php 250-dən çox birinci və üçüncü tərəf uzantıları ilə böyük proqram bazarı təklif edir. Əksər saytlarin hazirlanmasi pulludur və bu proqramlarla siz sadə əlaqə formaları və ya sosial media inteqrasiyası kimi əsas funksiyaları, eləcə də tam e-ticarət funksionallığı və ya podcast yazıları və canlı yayımlar üçün inteqrasiya kimi daha təkmil funksiyaları əlavə edə bilərsiniz.

Bütün bu xüsusiyyətlərə baxmayaraq, İnternet yalnız texniki mütəxəssislər üçün olduğu kimi görünə bilər, lakin bu, doğru deyil. Interactive media saytı İstər e-ticarət saytı yaradaraq, istər onlayn kitab satmaq, istər portfel və ya bloq yaratmaq, istərsə də restoranınız üçün sifariş qəbul etmək istəsəniz, PHP-ni çox asanlıqla öyrənə və istifadə edə bilərsiniz. Bundan əlavə, saytda biznesin idarə edilməsi üçün əlverişli vasitələr var. Pulsuz PHP planından istifadə edərək, bir qəpik ödəmədən veb saytınızı yarada və hətta dərc edə bilərsiniz.

Yeganə mənfi cəhət odur ki, bütün bu xüsusiyyətlər arasında itirmək asandır. Saytımda saatlarla vaxt keçirdim, ona görə yox ki, öyrənməli olduğum çox şey var və prosesdən həzz aldım. Daha sadə generatorlar varmı? Mütləq, lakin Interaktiv Media kimi bir şey vardır.

Buradakı hekayə sadədir: belə saytlar çox təsir edici və gözəl görünür, lakin bu, onların yeganə üstünlüyüdür. Flash saytlar sərin animasiya və hətta səsli interaktiv veb səhifələrdir. Təbii ki, bu, potensial müştərilərin diqqətini cəlb edir, lakin nəzərə almaq lazımdır ki, belə bir səhifənin yaradılması çox vaxt və pul tələb edir. Bu rasional və bahalı deyil.

Mənfi cəhətlərə də daxildir: aşağı yükləmə sürəti, məzmunun idarə edilməsinin mürəkkəbliyi; axtarış motorları tərəfindən zəif indeksləşdirmə; Veb sayt dizayneri

Bu növlərə Tilda, Wix və Ucoz veb sayt qurucularından istifadə edərək hazırlanmış saytlar daxildir. Dizaynerlər tez bir zamanda veb sayt yaratmaq üçün hazır şablonlar təklif edirlər, məsələn, vizit kartı veb saytı, blog və ya onlayn mağaza. Rəhbərlik mümkün qədər aydındır; mütəxəssisləri işə götürməyə ehtiyac yoxdur.

Əsas bloklardan istifadə edərək, rahat menyu, sifariş forması və ödənişlərin qəbulu mexanizmi ilə gözəl veb sayt hazırlaya bilərsiniz. Ancaq bu mərhələdə bir çatışmazlıq ilə qarşılaşa bilərsiniz - dizaynı istəklərinizə uyğunlaşdıra bilməzsiniz və lazımi funksiyaları əlavə etmək üçün əlavə pul ödəməli olacaqsınız. Məsələn, aşağıdakı məhdudiyyətlər var: kodu dəyişdirə bilməzsiniz; minimum SEO parametrlərini konfiqurasiya edə bilərsiniz; saytı CMS-ə köçürmək problemlidir; Konstruktor istənilən vaxt işini dayandıra bilər. Veb sayt yaratmaq üçün daha çoxfunksiyalı seçim seçməyi tövsiyə edirik.

Bonuslar və promosyonlar da tez-tez təklif olunur və endirimlər, yeni məhsullar və satışlar olan bölmələr var. Həmçinin onlayn mağazanın saytında şirkət, ödəniş üsulları və çatdırılma haqqında məlumatların yer aldığı bölmə var. Müştərilərinin trafikini və loyallığını artırmaq üçün bu cür saytlar mövzu ilə bağlı bloq və ya xəbərlər bölməsi yaradırlar. Onlayn mağaza geniş auditoriyaya çatır. Belə bir sayt tez-tez "huni" adlanır, çünki onun məqsədi müştərini istədiyi hərəkəti etməyə təşviq etməkdir, məsələn, məhsul almaq, məsləhətləşmədən keçmək və s.

Biz veb saytların hazırlanması xidmətini göstərən şirkətik. Peşəkar Interactive Media xidmətlərindən siz də yararlanıb keyfiyyətli veb sayta sahib ola bilərsiniz. Veb saytlar müxtəlif kodlarla və müxtəlif platformalarda hazırlana bilər. Bu seçim veb saytın aid olduğu sahədən və ya istifadə şərtlərindən asılıdı. Bunun önəmi ondadır ki, saytın aid olduğu sferaya uyğun kod və ya platforma seçilə bilər və bu saytın hazırlanması üçün ayrılan büdcəyə (bu nüans veb saytların hazırlanması qiymətləri ilə də əlaqəlidir), belə web saytların yaradılması üçün həsr olunacaq vaxta və enerjiyə qənaet edə bilər. Sifarişçi informativ, yəni biznes haqda məlumat verən xarakteristikada bir sayt istəyərkən müəyyən CMS platformalarından istifadə etməklə vaxta və büdcəyə qənaət etmək olar. Məsələn, WordPress platforması dünyanın ən geniş istifadə olunan open source kod sistemidir.

Zepotha will never be Goncharov because when it comes down to it, tumblr culture is collaborative, while tiktok culture is merely iterative, and those are not the same thing.
