    Learning Outcomes

    able to:
    1.Identify facets of digital self.

    What is “digital
    self”?
    It is a new type of
    existence. Our being-in-the-
    world is not experienced
    from within, but from
    without. This new being –
    our digital self – is
    sustained by the eyes that
    view it on the internet.
    IN THE LAST 20 YEARS WE HAVE BEEN
    INTRODUCED TO:
    • World Wide Web
    • Emailing
    • Chat rooms
    • On-line shopping
    • Cell phones
    • Internet gambling
    • Internet pornography
    • My Space
    • Facebook
    • Texting
    • Sexting
    • Tweeting
    • I-pods
    • Google...Yahoo
    • E-Harmony...Match.com
    • Four Square
    • Wii
    DESCARTES’ COGITO ERGO SUM
    (I THINK THEREFORE I AM)

    HAS BECOME EGO VIDISSET ERGO SUM


    (I AM SEEN THEREFORE I AM).
    AND BERKELEY’S ESSE EST PERCIPI
    (TO BE IS TO BE PERCEIVED)

    HAS NOW BECOME


    ESSE EST IN INTERNET EST
    (TO BE IS TO EXIST ON THE INTERNET)!
    But how is this digital self actually
    constructed?

    What are the building blocks we use,


    and what are the guiding forces behind
    our curating?
    who
    we
    believ
    e we
    are
    now
    who we want to be in the
    future, how we think
    how we want them to view us others see us now
    The digital self, with its many curated personas, its
    new language and vocabulary, its simulations of
    human activities in digital space that are slowly
    replacing real actions, is now steadily and stealthily
    overwhelming our physical self and taking control of
    our lives.

    Our only defense is to observe, study, and understand


    it, so that we can try to contain it and force it to
    remain where it is supposed to live.
    Assignment:

    Create a self portrait made up of objects or symbols and./or


    imagery that represent key elements of your digital identity.

    Write an analysis that explains the portrait.

    Create a display/or exhibit of the self-portraits.


    THANK YOU! 
