Introduction

Hi friends! My name is Cameron, or Cam, Slide and I'm a Junior majoring in English: Text, Business Writing, and Digital Studies! I look forward to gaining a more expansive knowledge of electronic literature, as well as the platforms used to create these bodies of work in this course!

Alongside my passion for writing, I have an equal love for photography! The ability to capture temporary life moments into an archival digital frame allows me to reminisce on times in life where I felt the happiest. At the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic in April of 2020, I invested in my first DSLR camera. Like everyone else in the world, I had an abundance of free time, and felt I needed to take my creative energy and channel it in the way I felt would bring me joy. I immersed myself into test photo shoots, taking photos of loved ones and experimenting with color grading in Adobe Lightroom. After 6 months of acquiring content for my portfolio, I started my own photography business, Cameron Slide Photography!

I have attached a photo of me in my photographical element!

That's a little bit about me! I look forward to spending the semester with you all!

It feels as if every choice I have made in my life over the past "22 (Taylor's Version)" years has led me to this moment.

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." But what Chris wanted to do was to use technology was to make stories that couldn't be made with current techniques. 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
