After our tutorial meeting on 15.09 I had quite a bit of thoughts in my head. I was wondering about among others about the phenomena of reality tv.
I did some researches online and I found out that some of the real tv funs have webpages and forums were they can talk about their favourite programms
You can even buy a calandar with the sexiest men as reality tv for 2006!!!
What is it that people like about it?
Is it power by the same needs as gossiping?
"Leftovers" to think about-
-if digital image is a copy without original is reality tv "non reality tv"?
- how does it try to cleam reality ( whitch means are beeing used )?
other questions:
- what should media do to not to loose their credibility?(in USA there are jokes about American media, like this picture)

- is there anything else that could make people think more about it or let them noe their is more then TV shows?

- can art be the sollution?
this is a "thinking out loud" process.
I have liked a few art works in ZKM and I'm not quite sure yet whitch i should choose.
I hereby proudly present the candidates:
- pulse 8
- architecture and music laboratory
-bubbles
-interactive plant growing
-map of sounds
I'll think about it on the side..uff..

...a lot of space..
I don't know the exact size of the Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, but it seemed huge to me. Only the Media Art Museum takes three spacious floors. But ZKM it not only Media Art Museum, it's also Museum for Contemporary Art, the Institute for Visual Media, the Institute for Music and Acoustics, the Institute for Basic Research, the Institute for Media and Economics, the Filminstitute, and Mediothek.
The uniqness of ZKM lies in it's variety. It's both a place where art is exibited and created, it's both a musuem and a reserch center. 
A former weapon factory that was opened for public in 1997 as our kind guide told us.
Crazy place..
You completely loose ability to tell reality and virtuality apart. Well, maybe not..you know what is the art piece and what is the museum building but when it comes to interacting with the art pieces you think you know that f.e the bubbles you see aren't real but on the other hand they interact with your shadow, that if a part of you..in a way..so it's like you re playing with the bubbles, but they arent real so how can you play with them?????
Maybe it's a bit naive what I wrote but after a few hours in ZKM I really felt confused.
You leave the building wondering if anything you touch will interact.
Luckly the bus that took us home was real and we arrived safely in Maastricht.
12.09?? oh!! it's my birthday!!!
