We are immersed in over ten thousand media impressions a day. What I do not understand is why very little or none of the media is our own. We are not all expert photographers or videographers. Many of us do not write four to eight hors a day fiction or non. In a smart home I would be able to catigorize pictures and movies. Whole messages could be presented or I could run reports into the body or corpus as the nltk calls it. In this case though a corpus includes links through text into movies, sound bites and the summary reports or even thoughts on topics identified by reducing written thoughts (‘This image was taken at my favorite place in the whole world … Here is why.’) These are thoughts i can refine and choose to campaign on behalf om me. What do I need to pull this together. A way to analyze blog, email, google data export. A way to tag or link images with thoughts, (sound bites) A way to present a campaign A way to record and link the recording to a report or an image or a video. (‘This is what I remember of that time.’) Another idea: an iPad app that will let you use part of the screen as a track pad that can be used instead of a mouse. Not to sell but to convince apple that they should put it into the operating system as an optional keyboard.
