introduction

 

Hello!

My name is Cameron Whitney and I grew up in Amherst, NH, about an hour from UNH. My major is English/Journalism and I love to read and write. I have always found those two activities to be a lovely escape from the harshness of real life. I cherish comfort, kindness, creativity, and honest self-expression. In my free time, I enjoy journaling with words, crafts, and art, along with making potions and buying funky clothes. 

I feel excited to learn and get to know everyone in the class!

Thank you for reading :)

VR and Empathy Machine's

 What I really appreciated about Chris Milks Ted Talk was how he expanded upon the idea of film. he describes it as "the same now as it was then."

Each time he presents a new piece, people seem to have stronger and stronger emotional responses to it. I think this speaks to how powerful immersion is. The more immersive the piece is, the more invested the user becomes. I think this is what his goal was with the last project when he did clouds over Sidra. It was incredibly moving to see her entire environment. It was as real as it could be. He could have made a documentary on Sidra, but often times those can become movie-like. This project was the opposite of that. "You are sitting there with her... and because of that you feel her humanity in a deeper way." I think this piece captured that idea beautifully. It captures her world in such a way that e
