Comment on Commander Prime, the Master of War by Gregory http://mith.umd.edu/digitalstorytelling/2012/11/13/commander-prime-the-master-of-war/#comment-193 Gregory Thu, 15 Nov 2012 17:55:43 +0000 http://mith.umd.edu/digitalstorytelling/?p=1556#comment-193 It does! And for my Capstone, I wanted to design a game to the furthest extent that I could. As you can see I chose Halo for the foundation and opted to do a sequel (Halo 5). This is going to be one of the premier scenes, and will play a pivotal role in the plot. Those questions actually directly relate to the themes I'm going to explore and emphasize. It does!

So much to like here, so I'll just compliment you on your creative vocabulary: "stem," " the silver," all very good, and very cyberpunk. Great story!

I also like this idea of the Void--something that is empty being "findable." Great Bond villain in there as well. :) Great sense of space, Beena.

Is this Halo fan fiction? (I noticed the name of Master Chief.) So, you get at some of the more challenging questions of our cyborg selves. What happens when we ditch the body? Is our mind what makes us human? Our soul? Our bodies? Descartes famously states that "I think therefore I am," but does that mean if we lose the body but can still think we're still human? Will there will still be an "I" there to do the thinking? Keeps ya' up at night, yeah. Great stuff. Is this Halo fan fiction? (I noticed the name of Master Chief.)

Comment on The S Unit by Porter http://mith.umd.edu/digitalstorytelling/2012/11/13/the-s-unit/#comment-188 Porter Thu, 15 Nov 2012 02:16:00 +0000 http://mith.umd.edu/digitalstorytelling/?p=1551#comment-188 I like the merging of Simulink and Singleton into a single 'unit.' This is a great example of another barrier (that which exists between discrete individuals) that isn't quite as rigid as we might otherwise think.

Comment on What People Make of the World by Porter http://mith.umd.edu/digitalstorytelling/2012/11/13/what-people-make-of-the-world/#comment-187 Porter Thu, 15 Nov 2012 02:12:41 +0000 http://mith.umd.edu/digitalstorytelling/?p=1547#comment-187 "This world was the new real. Over the past twenty years, automatics had taken over physical labor, leaving only the creative aspects to humankind. Some people pined for the old ways. Idiots." Great paragraph! I think you capture the idea of "liminality"--the crossing back and forth across the barriers that separate our physical and digital selves--beautifully. “This world was the new real.
