I posted this almost exactly a year ago, and it seems relevant to re-share it now. Craft and Philosophy: jarango.com/2018/03/27/cra… 1/16
TLDR: Craft = how-to and philosophy = why-to. Healthy professional disciplines evolve both. This calls for ongoing discussions between academics, practitioners, and stakeholders. Hosting these conversations is one of the purposes of professional conferences. 2/16

#IAC19 Keynote by Ha Phan — Signal vs. Noise @hpdailyrant
.@hpdailyrant begins by talking about a photo of her father. The photo was taken by a manual. A manual trigger is a distinct intent of the user. Now photos are automatically generated and decided by a computer. What signals the computer about our photos? #IAC19
Computers (ie our phones) get signals from us all the time. All data starts out at noise. How can we measure intent if there’s no button to push? “Signals begin as the tallest leprechaun.” @hpdailyrant #IAC19
