Save me, O God,
    for the waters have come up to my neck.
2 
I sink in the miry depths,
    where there is no foothold.
I have come into the deep waters;
    the floods engulf me.
3 
I am worn out calling for help;

Okay, this will take way too many Tweets for me to write out properly, so I'll type it out here really quickly.

"IRC," like most other words, is both denotative and connotative. Internet Relay Chat, strictly speaking, is just a protocol, but it comes loaded with an expected methodology and culture.

Ideally, we should take advantage of the former to fix some of the problems with the latter.

##IRC is Modular

The crux of this is that IRC is modular in the sense that, as a protocol, it only requires a compliant client and server. Beyond that, there is no way that it has to be. We can layer client features, server features, and other features like bots on top of it.

“Absence"

Patti McLetchie

The project was designed to signify how breast cancer patients feel after they have gone through a mastectomy. The artist has a personal connection to this project as her best friend had breast cancer twice and went through a mastectomy. This project was to symbolize what she experiences on a daily basis. The idea was that as a society we focus on imperfections and tend to stare at what is uneven or what is not “beautiful” by society’s standards. The goal with the wearable media project was to be able to wear something that drew attention to one side like the unevenness of a post-mastectomy patient.

A cream lace bra was used to symbolize Caucasian skin. An “X” was designed out of 5 red leds on the left breast to symbolize where the cancer was and which breast had the mastectomy. The “X” was programed to fade on and off for a minute in a cycle. Women's breasts are often already the subject of gazing and critique. The fading red light was meant to bring additional attention

U Can Touch This
  @atxryan, Web/UX developer
  Why does touch matter?
    Proliferation of touch devices
  What's your strategy for touch?
    Ignore it
      Legitimate strategy as long as it's deliberate
    Retrofit it
      Not recommended
      So many things come into play that you want to design for touch first, get free affordances for mouse

Native UX for the Web
  Andrew Miller - Atlas Learning
  Current web - access content, consume content
    Want to create applications on the web
      Gesture-based rather than link based on mobile
      Websites on tablets feel different, off
  Example: LiveSlide
    drawing, touch interaction, editing all through browser JS
  IE is not an excuse
    Force users to upgrade
