BCM214 Digital Artefact Report

Can technological developments protect and restore the natural environment?

The Multi-functional environmental drone

Video Production

Visual aspects

This video is made from AI software (Midjourney). A total of three pictures are edited and progressive, and the diversity of materials is more able to attract the audience. What caught my eye was the product I created, a multi-functional environmental drone. It turns from a drone into a butterfly flying into a dilapidated building, which represents the flexibility of the drone and the implication that with the development and progress of technology, the environment has been greatly damaged. Then, the butterfly flies into the deep sea and sees that the ocean world is also destroyed, which also means that my product can fly above and enter the sea below. Then the picture is cut to two athletes riding, and the drone is transformed into a camera, which also means that the picture of the drone can also be connected with casual smart products such as mobile phones. Then detect the contents of the environment.

The role of music

The choice of light music is in line with the operation process of this product. The destruction of the environment should be a very serious and stressful atmosphere, but the function of multi-functional environmental protection UAV is to detect the degree of environmental damage and repair the damage in the environment, so the choice of light music is cheerful. The voiceover is used to explain the purpose of the entire video and what the product does.

Fast-paced story telling

In just 30 seconds, I need to show the quality and effect of the product in the picture, and at the same time, I need to use a lot of words to explain the role of each picture and the purpose of the material in the video. Moreover, it is also necessary to clearly point out the direction of the SDGS, ecological protection and ecological restoration, quickly attract the audience’s attention and express the main idea of the video.

Contextual Significance

The multi-functional environmental UAV is a high-tech product combining advanced sensing technology with automated restoration technology and digital, specially designed for environmental monitoring and restoration. With the progress and development of science and technology, people’s living standards are getting higher and higher, but the associated consequence is that the natural ecological environment has been greatly damaged. In recent years, the urbanization and agricultural expansion implemented by the Australian government have caused a huge impact on the natural environment. A large number of land exploitation and changes have destroyed the original ecological environment. The over-exploitation of the land is turned into high-rise buildings in the hands of property owners or into farmland that can be cultivated for profit and finally causes land erosion and degradation as well as water pollution and depletion and a series of damage.

However, the emergence of multi-functional environmentally friendly drones will change that. Its role is in line with Sustainable Development Goal 14 (SDG14) and Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG15). It has an important social, technological and industrial impact and will drive social change and development to achieve a sustainable future.（Australia Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade，2024）

Social Domain

The emergence of multifunctional drones has made people realize that technological progress has caused extremely serious damage to the natural environment. So now there is an opportunity to use the power of technology to monitor and repair the damaged environment. Do you have this awareness? A study found that over 70% of Australians hope to live an environmentally friendly life and believe that it is very important for humanity. More than 55% of people believe that the use of renewable energy can improve the human living environment and achieve the concept of environmentally friendly living.This study clearly shows Australians’ awareness of the concept of environmental protection and their desire for a sustainable life. They are deeply aware of the disasters caused by environmental damage to nature, so the multi-functional environmental drone can change this situation and improve the damaged environment through this information.

The use of social media

The research shows that social media software can quickly let people know the information of environmental pollution in different regions or various sudden situations, directly improve the public’s awareness of environmental protection, and provide a platform for environmental protection and environmentalists all over the world to share their own information or environmental protection organizations on it. So that everyone’s efforts can get a faster response and spread. It can also be used as an educational tool so that people who do not know how to protect the environment can also learn environmental protection tips in life at home, and make their own contribution to the cause of environmental protection. The most important thing is that social media is deeply loved by the public and has played a great role in mobilizing people’s behavior and thoughts, so that more people can join the ranks of environmental protection.（Dosemagen，2016）

The multi-functional environmental drone promotes social impact by encouraging the publicity of environmentalism and the spread of social media, so that every person who cares for the natural ecological environment and does not know about environmentalism can invest in the correct thinking and behavior of environmental protection, so that everyone forms a common responsibility for SDG14 and SDG15.（Department of Climate Change，Energy，the Environment and Water，2022）

realm of science and technology

The use of multi-functional environmental drones draws on some existing environmental digital tools, and in this regard, I have to mention my very proud country, China. China’s technology level is in a leading position in the world, and the brand that Chinese people are proud of is Xiaomi. In addition to Xiaomi’s highly cost-effective smartphones, the most remarkable thing is its independent Xiaomi ecosystem. There are many novel products under this ecosystem, such as the robot vacuum cleaner in the Mijia series. Find the S10 Plus. As is shown in the picture.（Xiaomi，n.d.）

Theoretical support and practical operation

It not only has a simple sweeping system, but also has sophisticated sensors, video monitoring functions and even a simple artificial intelligence operating system. When I want to use it, I only need to shout its name to it and then order instructions to work. The most satisfying thing is that it can download the corresponding application through the mobile phone. You can even use this sweeping robot to build a map of the area you want to clean, and then a 3D map will be displayed on the application of the phone, and then you can determine the location of its cleaning according to your mark, which is an important combination of technology and environmental protection machines. It is also a practical support for the concept of environmental protection drones.

The social media community of the multi-functional environmental drone is a typical example of being used for social good. It uses the openness and communication of social media to promote the spirit of environmentalism and gain the echo of fellow environmentalists, so that those who would not otherwise pay attention to the seriousness of environmental damage. And the possibility of using modern technology to do practical support for the sustainable development goals of multi-functional environmental drones.

Industrial sector

Multi-functional environmental protection UAV plays a very important role in the practice of sustainable development. The first is the monitoring of the environment, the sensor system of the multi-functional environmental protection UAV can feel the content of PM2.5 in the air, the degree of water pollution and even the change of soil softness and humidity can be accurately communicated. After that, these data will be transmitted to the user’s casual devices, such as mobile phones or special instruments, in the fastest time to provide accurate data reference. Finally, the multi-functional environmental protection UAV is equipped with repair devices, which can carry out automatic repair, such as air purification system or soil remediation system and water purification system. Even in the event of an emergency, it can immediately connect to the corresponding environmental protection bureau and the police system, so that they receive the emergency notice at the first time to avoid natural and man-made disasters.

conclusion

The multi-functional environmental UAV has made a great response to the society’s protection of the natural ecological environment and the promotion of sustainable development goals, combined with modern science and technology to monitor and repair the natural ecological environment, and made practical technical support for the goal of sustainable development, and then carried out practical publicity through social media. Environmental data and processes are then made publicly available online to ensure that it promotes social awareness and enhances environmental protection and the achievement of sustainable development goals. It has laid the foundation for a wide range of application prospects for multi-functional environmental protection drones in various industries in the future, and promoted the change of green ecological environmental protection and healthy living environment.

BCM325 Digital Artefact Contextual Report Part2（2050）

This article discusses the technological product invented and created by people in 2050, the virtual immersive classroom instrument. Due to the impact of the epidemic, students from 2019 to 2022 have experienced three years of online classes. Therefore, I hope to combine virtual reality technology with learning classrooms to create a virtual immersive classroom instrument that can immerse students in a place full of learning atmosphere and a good learning environment for learning. The most important and worth delving into is the application of AI technology.

The combination of artificial intelligence and virtual reality technology allows you to directly communicate with the instrument after opening it, choose the learning environment and subjects you want to learn, or directly match the system with an environment suitable for your learning subjects, all of which can be achieved.

Three key questions proposed by Yuval Noah Harari

1，Reducing life to a data processing unit.

In his view, the patterns and existence of all living organisms in this world are like a string of code or data, and the various parts that make up the basic structure of humans are the components of code. I remember we once analyzed the movie “Matrix”, where the people are composed of a string of green data codes. This viewpoint also subverts the traditional academic definition of life and strengthens the relationship between information processing and life

2，Decouple intelligence from consciousness

In his view, intelligence is the process of processing complex information, and human consciousness is the individual behavior of people, and personal cognition of the outside world is subjective. One of the topics that people often discuss is whether artificial intelligence can have autonomous consciousness to do some commands or behaviors, which in his view does not exist. Because intelligence exists even when there is no subjective consciousness, this is highly intelligent behavior.

3，Unconscious algorithms know more about our possibilities than we do

In his thinking, artificial intelligence systems can more objectively help humans make more rational decisions. Human judgment, emotional cognition, and emotional self are always influenced by various external factors, which are essential characteristics and weaknesses of humans. Therefore, artificial intelligence will combine various fixed objective factors to make more suitable objective decisions for humans.

My idea：Possible future

Artificial intelligence can fully realize the concept of virtual immersion classroom instruments, and provide a good environment and opportunities for all students who are eager to learn and are learning. The student can use this device anywhere, and at that time, the environment will be calculated by the AI and the environment will be checked and it will give the learning environment that best fits the situation at that time and then the user will communicate with the AI the course material that you need, and the screen will show you what you want to learn. Students will break through the concept of learning knowledge in school, and can freely choose the learning environment, you can learn the works of ancient Chinese literati in the ancient buildings rich in Chinese culture, you can also learn scientific knowledge in the scientific and technological world full of cyberpunk factors, you can see the historical buildings of different countries to learn history, AI creates an infinite possible learning process.

Ensure the openness and security of artificial intelligence systems, and the presence of user information on them. All boundaries for setting and searching are regulated by the basic principles of social ethics and legal bottom lines. Ensure that users have a comfortable and safe learning environment and atmosphere.

Based on the concerns of previous scholars about artificial intelligence, I also set some Settings for this immersive classroom device to ensure that it is socially beneficial.

Based on the basic ethical and moral principles of society, students under the age of 18 need the setting and permission of guardians, and guardians are responsible for inspecting the entire process of instrument operation to ensure the openness, fairness, and safety of the learning process. Adults also need to ensure that the learning environment does not contain harmful factors such as pornography, violence, or drugs when using immersive learning devices. If these situations occur, the learning devices will be connected to the judicial system for direct online warnings, and users may face legal sanctions.

future needs

The importance of online classrooms is particularly evident during the pandemic. Due to the widespread spread of the epidemic, most countries have implemented a policy of studying from home to avoid its spread. As a result, traditional offline courses cannot be held safely and normally. The emergence of online courses ensures the continuity of education, allowing students to learn knowledge on campus without leaving their homes. It has great flexibility. Students can arrange their class time and life plans reasonably based on their own situation at home. Even if they encounter incomprehensible learning problems, they can communicate with online classmates or teachers, and even repeatedly watch the content of the class, achieving a new learning method by reviewing the past. Not only that, students can also learn about learning materials and cultures from around the world through online learning at home, ensuring the diversity of learning content. That is to say, many online technology software has also been widely used, such as Zoom and other software. This provides a good reference condition for immersive classroom equipment. Nowadays, with the gradual weakening of the impact of the epidemic, the mode of online learning has not changed. People can still review the content of offline learning through the online network and communicate with teachers and classmates in a timely manner. This is the transformation brought about by technology and a stage of progress in artificial intelligence.

During the process of using immersive classroom instruments, students can see their enthusiasm for the use of technology and the achievements of artificial intelligence in helping the education industry reform.

Students are communicating with artificial intelligence to ensure access to the most accurate educational materials and a comprehensive educational process.

Conclusion

Based on the three key questions raised by Yuval Noah Harari and the thoughts of scholars such as Nick Bostrom and George Dvorsky, I have brought hope for the birth prospects of virtual immersive classroom instruments in 2050. Combining their views, I have also made discussions on the basic settings of instruments and product audiences, establishing a technological world where reality and technology combine and learn from each other. The most important thing is that the development of AI virtual reality should follow the basic principles of society and the basic premise of law. Only in this way can artificial intelligence technology become a tool for people to promote social development rather than an accomplice to affect social harmony.

BCM325 Digital Artefact Contextual Report Part2（2040）

This article discusses the science and technology that people will master in the future, which has important reference significance for the later social progress or the application of science and technology. Nowadays, transportation is an indispensable part of people’s life. It not only solves the problem of people’s travel but also promotes the economic development of various industries. Then in the future, what new transportation modes will appear to subvert our traditional transportation modes? By 2040, with the continuous progress of science and technology, new types of transportation will completely change people’s travel methods, and the advent of hyperloop will be one of the most popular travel methods in people’s future life.

Hyperloop is a rail transport system capable of operating at high speeds. There are many advantages over the traditional railway. 1, its transmission capacity is very huge. Hyperloop High-speed rail in all countries can meet the requirements of minimum travel time of 2mins and below, and can operate 600 pairs of passenger trains per day. 2. Fast. The biggest advantage of Hyperloop is its travel speed, which is a symbolic change in the technical level of transportation. Every country is constantly improving the speed of the train. In addition to simple speed increase, the main premise of people’s choice of transportation is to reduce the total time of the journey, and the journey time is determined by the speed of travel. Then Hyperloop meets this need. 3. Security. In recent years, unsafe cases of transportation have occurred, and people pay the most attention to safety when they travel, and the hyperloop has noticed this problem. First of all, the section where it exists is completely closed, that is to say, there is no human factor or external factor interference in the process of driving to affect the transportation safety of the Hyperloop. Secondly, the maintenance and testing of the railway will adopt a blanket inspection, and an overhaul will be done every three months to ensure the road safety and body safety of the Hyperloop. 4, the impact of climate change is small. As we all know, traditional railways in various countries will be affected by extreme weather to stop railway transportation, and Hyperloop all use automated control, can operate all day to cope with sudden extreme weather changes. 5. Comfort. Traditional railways do not do a particularly good job of passenger service, and Hyperloop pays special attention to the passenger experience. The ticket purchase mode will be converted from traditional offline ticket purchase to mobile ticket purchase, you will be able to buy Hyperloop tickets anywhere you want to go to the destination, you will get a two-dimensional code after the successful purchase of tickets, and then through the two-dimensional code scan into the station. After entering the station, there will be a special police officer to take charge of the case and check to ensure the safety of each customer. Finally, after taking the Hyperloop, you will experience comfortable seats and clean toilets, bathrooms, and then there will be a special steward to provide service, catering or road questions will be answered for you. 6. Energy consumption. Compared to the traditional railway or the traditional mode of transportation, the hyperloop uses the energy consumption of the point maglev system. EDS systems generate levitation and guiding forces through the principle of magnetic induction. The induced current requires energy to generate and maintain, but due to the use of highly efficient superconductor materials, energy consumption is significantly reduced.

Technological progress and innovation

The stages of technological progress are divided into three stages: invention, innovation, and diffusion. I think it is very appropriate to integrate the concept of innovative transportation into the stage of technological progress. The concept of super high-speed rail is based on the invention of the original high-speed rail, thus innovating. Compared with the advantages of traditional railways, it is more convenient for people’s daily life and built on the existing foundation. Its design on traditional railways has more complex technologies, such as enclosed pipelines and widespread railways. Whether it can gain public recognition also requires continuous testing and later observation to see if it conforms to future development trends. In the future society, the technology mastered by various countries should be shared with countries around the world, so that everyone can learn from each other’s strengths and weaknesses and enjoy the changes brought about by technology.

The transformation of super high-speed rail into a smart city and a sustainable development city after connecting cities（AI）

Sustainable city and smart city

With the application of super high-speed rail, cities will connect with each other to form smart cities and sustainable cities. The development of smart cities helps people to more deeply feel the changes that technology has brought to cities. The application of super high-speed rail allows people from all corners of the city to quickly and safely reach any place in the city, which provides opportunities for urban development. This means that the center of the city is no longer just fixed, and every place has the necessary development and people’s right to choose. A sustainable city is the foundation of the development of smart cities. The development of smart cities must absolutely ensure that the environment is not damaged, public infrastructure must be guaranteed, and the needs of the people for smart cities and the guarantee of sustainable cities should complement each other. Only in this way can we feel the progress brought by technology and the important reasons why people yearn for technology.

conclusion

In general, looking forward to 2040, the innovation and development of transportation will have an important impact on socio-economic development and urban planning. People’s demand for transportation innovation is growing day by day. The importance of hyperloop in the future will be demonstrated by comparing with the development of traditional railways. The subversion of the traditional mode of transportation means that people have laid a solid foundation for the improvement of the quality of life and the development of urbanization, reducing the impact of the environment, and promoting social progress and sustainable development goals.

BCM112 A3 network report

Combined with the experience of the first network report and the teacher’s advice, I did not know much about network report at first, and I always thought it was a task that could be completed by one person. However, after careful consideration, I understood the tutor’s intention. A DA created by an individual is not comprehensive and perfect in terms of its observation and audience’s affection, so I need to communicate with other students more, because everyone is an observer, not a creator, and can give me a lot of opinions, so this time I chose to improve my DA with a classmate and recorded it.（Yuqing，xu）

Because we are also from China, we chose to communicate with Chinese social software. WeChat.

The record here is to show that when we did not understand the network report for the first time, we all made mistakes and did not meet the teacher’s requirements.

Here I am showing my DA account and my promotional content, including my DA content, and hoping she can give some advice.

This is my product showcase, and I hope to show her the latest works she has made and hope she can give me some feedback.

It is worth noting that at this time, she told me that there are some special holidays recently, such as Mother’s Day. We can make some bracelets that fit the festive atmosphere during this special festival for sale and promote traditional Chinese filial piety culture. So, combining her ideas, I created a bracelet that combines Chinese and Australian characteristics in my mind, and received a lot of feedback for promotion and sales on Mother’s Day.

The customer’s message asked us to set up a stall again，hoping to purchase and view DA offline.

After that, Yuqing Xu and I have discovered a festival that only Chinese people celebrate, which is May 20th. And we hope to create some bracelets that are suitable for couples through conceptualization, so that customers who purchase them will start from two different sources, and each bracelet will have a new meaning. At the same time, this gimmick can better promote our Chinese style bracelets, making it a perfect collaboration.

After this activity, I made a personal summary of my account and got the experience. I found that there were 2,365 views between my two events, and the total viewing time was more than 4 hours. And the number of customers on my homepage has reached 169. It’s very pleasing to me. Because my audience is Chinese students from Australia, this is a Chinese social software, and it also clearly points out my shortcomings. The comments of my works are increasing rapidly, but the viewing amount of post articles is not significantly improved, so it is necessary to pay attention to the cover of post articles to attract viewers so that more people can watch them.

There have also been changes in the situation of the fans who follow my DA production, because this is a traffic account. I already have a high fan base, even if some may be fake fans, after this period of rectification, there are still 7 new fans, and it is worth noting that there are also 5 fans lost. This also reminds me to pay more attention to everyone’s evaluation, make timely changes and adjustments in order to better promote and improve DA.

Overall, the production and promotion of DA this time was very successful, and I am also very happy to receive the guidance of the tutor and the help of Yuqing Xu. It has allowed my DA to discover new directions and be loved by the public. At the same time, it has laid a solid foundation for me to conduct research on other projects or deeper DA creation in the future. I hope to receive good feedback from the teacher’s evaluation or classmates’ attention in the future, and I am very happy to complete the study of this subject.

BCM112 A3 Contextual report

After the actual promotion and production in the first stage, I decided to make a summary and analysis in the second stage to accurately position my product and analyze the existing problems, and then integrate the integrity of the whole process with the teacher’s opinions, so that everyone can better understand the significance and impact of my DA production.

Combined with the first promotion and sale, we found that an attractive point of view for customers is that in special festivals and special atmosphere, people actually do not care about the meaning and value given by the bracelet itself. On the contrary, they are more concerned about whether the packaging and decoration of the product are in line with their aesthetic taste for jewelry. That is to say, they hope to convert this fun thing into modern fashion jewelry, which also gives us new inspiration. We may open a new track, which is specifically responsible for the promotion and sale of jewelry strings of modern fashion culture.

Here we begin our attempt at a new track. Mother’s Day is a holiday with a unified date worldwide, and it is a great holiday. Mothers play different roles in a family. They give us life, bring warmth to the family, serve as role models for every child, and accompany every child’s growth path. With the opportunity of Mother’s Day, we need to express our gratitude to our mothers and also give each family an opportunity to gather together. Praising a mother’s selfless dedication is also an important festival for supporting her and conveying filial piety culture. In China, filial piety is very important and can also be used as an opportunity to promote traditional Chinese filial piety culture, killing two birds with one stone.

We chose red as the basic color for the appearance of this bracelet, because in China, red represents passionate and strong love, and at the same time, it can also represent the color of blood. It was not easy for our mother to bring us to this world, and then we used white beads as embellishments, representing the white of Australian pearls. Together, we created such a work to praise our mother’s greatness. It also combines the two cultures of China and Australia.

The second festival we have chosen is a very romantic one. Strictly speaking, it is not a traditional festival, but a popular one in recent years. 520, May 20th, in Chinese, the homophonic meaning of 520 is “I Love You”. Many young couples choose to have a romantic date with their partners on this day or choose their favorite gifts to make each other happy. Even many people who are about to enter the marriage hall choose to register for marriage on this day, and getting married on such a romantic day is very happy and joyful. So for this group of people, we have made couple style bracelets, symbolizing the meaning of eternal unity and never separation.

We are very thoughtful for some married families with children to make family style, so that children can also share the romantic atmosphere of mom and dad.

With the progress of the project, the DA I made finally won the attention of my classmates. Although she is also Chinese, she has gained some traffic. She is also very interested in Chinese-style bracelets, and she also wears some Chinese-style bracelets. In her opinion, some of my views and the production of the new track are very attractive to her. She hopes to join the idea of the bracelet concept and help promote it, which is also of great help to the later promotion of my project. As my gratitude to her, I also selected several bracelets suitable for her and gave them to her to express my gratitude. I hope to get everyone’s feedback and support in the new production and promotion in the later stage.

It was time for the release of the last discord. It was very rewarding for me to have new breakthroughs and updates in every step of the project production, promotion and then sale this semester. In the beginning, the Chinese style bracelet was used as a medium to understand or communicate with international students from different countries during their study in Australia. In the later stage, the inheritance and promotion of Chinese culture and the generation of new racetracks gave each bracelet its definition in different countries’ cultures. Finally, according to the meanings of jewelry given by different festivals, the Chinese style bracelet was used as the starting point of my DA this semester. It also laid the foundation for me to promote other products or DA in the later media courses. I hope that in the future, I will have more opportunities to communicate with people in different countries and exchange products with different meanings given by each country, so as to jointly create products suitable for us and draw a satisfactory conclusion for BCM112.

BCM325 A1 part2 Live Film Analysis

Combined with the experience of writing an analytical film report last time, I made a big change this time. Compared with the first time, I have divided my analysis and opinion on the film into several paragraphs according to the due requirements, and the word number of each paragraph is controlled to about 50-100 words, so that readers or tutors can clearly understand the main idea of each paragraph I hope to express, and they will not get tired of watching it. Compared with the first time, I will not get tired of watching it. This will make it more concise.

This is the second one

This is the Third one

This is the fourth one（2040）

This is the fifth one（2050）

Compared to the first time, The question raised by the tutor to me is also about evaluating others’ analysis of the movie, and discussing it with others based on one’s own ideas, which is very important. Because everyone appreciates every movie from their own perspective, different people have different opinions on the same things. We need to combine different people’s ideas to evaluate the shock and collision of ideas brought by each movie. Discussing with others is an essential stage and also a second opportunity for us to re-examine our own views on these works.

Whether we are in work or in life, it is extremely important to listen to the opinions of others. This experience and idea may come from other students who are also rich in ideas and experience or from tutors through communication. We all need to pay attention to different ideas and voices, because our way of thinking is limited. We need different perspectives and experiences to expand our thinking. One of the most important things we need to learn from this film analysis is to listen to the opinions of others. If we choose to be impatient or complacent, we may miss out on other people’s good ideas about the movie or every analysis. Therefore, we should encourage and listen to the opinions of others and respect the differences, so as to collect more information, so that we can observe the information and learning opportunities brought by each movie from multiple angles, and improve everyone’s sense of participation and self-confidence.This is also what I lacked in my first film analysis report.

During the analysis of the latest films, I found that compared with the previous three films, my page views and interactions with everyone had increased significantly. I began to discuss with everyone with great pleasure. I would carefully watch each student’s understanding and views on the films, and when I found the same ideas as my own, I will be very happy to comment on Ran and discuss the themes and meanings of these films with them, and finally get mutual recognition. In my opinion, this is the meaning of film analysis.

The most impressive discussion for me was with the tutor about their outlook on the future world. The theme I have chosen is the progress of future transportation and the potential emergence of transportation. For my thoughts on this topic, I have chosen transportation technologies that are close to reality and may be realized. I have listed the emergence and application of some technologies from my country and China, as well as the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and aerial light rail systems implemented and put into trial use in China, as well as the use of maglev trains. These are all real occurrences. Combining with some existing transportation in Australia, in my opinion, everyone can learn and communicate with each other. Technological progress and development are not only to facilitate everyone’s lives, but also a way of communication for the world to learn from each other. I believe that in the future, countries will promote the development of technology together and welcome a more technological era through mutual communication and learning. Countries can learn from each other, and the ultimate goal of technological development is to make progress together. This idea has received high approval from my tutor, and she also demanded that I write it on my blog, which makes me very happy.

Of course, every report of film analysis must have something to be improved. In my opinion, my quotation of pictures and videos is not so good, I prefer to use words to get people’s attention and resonance, but for most people, boring words are difficult to get people’s attention, so I also add a few pictures. I hope that in my future study and life, I can have a more comprehensive understanding of the topic I want to analyze and add more elements to get your attention and deeper understanding.

Background：
What I designed was a Chinese-style Wuxia world, a mythical world. According to Chinese folk mythology, a long time ago, heaven and earth were not separated, and the universe was chaotic. There was a giant named Pangu, who slept in this chaotic universe for eighteen thousand years.
One day, Pangu suddenly woke up. When he saw that it was all dark around him, he swung his big axe and struck it violently into the darkness before him. Just heard a loud noise, a dark thing gradually dispersed. Things that rose slowly became days; slowly falling things became the ground.
After heaven and earth separated, Pangu was afraid that they would still meet together, so he lifted his head to the sky and peddled to the ground. The sky rose ten feet every day, and Pangu grew higher as the sky grew longer. In this way, heaven and earth gradually took shape over many years, and Pangu fell down tired.
After Pangu fell, his body changed greatly. His breath became the winds and clouds of the seasons; his voice turned into rumbling thunder; his eyes became the sun and the moon; his limbs became the four poles of the earth, east, west, south, and north; his skin became the vast earth; his blood became a running river; his sweat became the rain that moistened all things. This gave birth to the first Chinese dynasty, the Zhou Dynasty. After constant wars and massacres, the last king of this dynasty was born, named the King of Zhou Shang. Under his rule, the people had no food to eat and were homeless like ants. At this time, you are an emissary sent to the world by the celestial realm, and you need to fight against it and recruit troops by constantly upgrading your equipment and ability to fight against it, so as to gain the ability to contend with the King of Zhou Shang and overthrow his rule to realize the desire of the people to be masters of their own country. Since then, the world has been divided into three factions: people, gods, and demons. The Divine Realm is based on an ancient Chinese mythological story, with the main character being the Jade Emperor, “the one who holds all power in the divine realm.” Taishang Lao Jun is responsible for forging immortal pills; his pills can have a magical effect, and in different circumstances, can have different effects. Erlang God is the nephew of the Jade Emperor; he has the ability to look down on the world, being omnipotent and brave, and is the most feared of all demons and ghosts. Tota Li Heavenly King was once a mortal who sacrificed himself in the process of fighting against the King of Zhou Shang. Due to his outstanding efforts, he was named a heavenly God. Some characters, etc., are still in development. There are also several representative figures in the camp of the devil, such as Sun Wukong, the demon monkey who turned into a sacred stone. His talent is incomparable, and then he worshipped a master to learn a skill, and from the East China Sea Dragon Palace, he obtained an artifact, the Ruyi golden cudgel, as a weapon. His strength is equal to that of the gods, and later he won the title of the Great Saint of Heaven, fighting against the rule of the divine realm. The Bull Demon King was originally on the mountain of the old king, but later he was dissatisfied with the oppression of the divine world and became a demon, helping the bad guys unify the world, and so on, characters created to help tyrants unify the world. The human characters are divided into two camps: those who overthrow the ruling party and those who maintain the insurgency. The camp that retreats from the rule needs the help of the divine realm, and the camp that maintains the tyrant needs the help of the demon realm. Players need to choose their own camp at the beginning, get different identity cards in different camps to launch a war, and finally, the victorious camp unifies the world.（The introduction and preparation of the three act structure）

Game settings and gameplay：

At the beginning of the game, each player needs to choose a different side, and draw your own unique hero card in each side. This hero card is the character that represents your entire game. Each hero card has a corresponding skill mechanic and health, and you need to use your hero’s skills to help your side win. Below is a list of the basic cards in the game. There are three categories. The first category is a simple attack and defense card, which has attack cards, defense cards and recovery cards. Each card can only be used at certain times. (usually only used once per turn), the second category is weapon cards, many heroes have their own magic, but in the game you need to draw cards to get a weapon, even if the weapon does not belong to your hero you can use. The third category is special event cards, such as total solar Eclipse cards, which require each player to play a defensive card in order to exempt damage.

（The core part of the three act structure, the development and battles of the game, requires players to think about how they can achieve victory and continuously move forward through existing mechanisms.）

The climax and ending of the game：

Depending on how the game progresses, players from each camp need to find ways to win. There is no absolute difference between good and evil. The winner is the king and the loser is the aggressor. Only the victorious side can truly dominate the three realms! Gods and demons have no right to intervene in human affairs, and every decision made by people will affect the direction of events, I hope that every player can make the right decision.There are also two different outcomes for each side’s victory. If the rebel camp wins, then the people will elect a new king of kindness and justice to rule the world, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment, paving the way for the second game. On the contrary, if the tyrant camp wins, then the demon realm will rule the earth and declare war against the immortal realm, and the world will be in no peace.

BCM112 Network report

Since the beginning of the project, I have confirmed the latest direction of development. For the purpose of promoting Chinese cultural exchanges and promoting Chinese international students in uow University to quickly understand and help new students quickly integrate into campus life, a DA, Chinese-style bracelet was made for sale. Initially, we chose to go on a field trip to Glebe Markets to observe the enthusiasm of local Australians. From 8:30 in the morning until 4:00 in the afternoon. Our revenue on the day reached 280 Australian dollars, for the first offline sale preparation and online publicity obviously there are still many shortcomings. For example, we are not very familiar with the meaning of each bracelet and the production of different materials. For us, we only care about its appearance and the method of constructing the bracelet, but we do not pay much attention to its material and the meaning it gives. As a result, several local Australian customers ask us about the meaning of these bracelets, and we make them up temporarily. But it also gave us a sense of caution and allowed us to add new ideas in post-production and analysis.

This week, I made two important points in discord. First, choose local Australian social media platforms to promote our Chinese-style bracelet. Second, giving each bracelet a different meaning enables people from different countries to have a different understanding of each bracelet to promote cultural exchange. We quickly ran into problems, starting with platform selection and promotion. In Australia, we do not have the same number of fans and publicity techniques as in China, so there is no way to get traffic by Posting YouTube or twitter, so this kind of publicity is futile, so we still choose the most frequently used social media platforms in Australia by Chinese people.”
Little red book.” It can at least ensure that the vast majority of Chinese people in Australia can see our information and help us promote and sell. There are also a small number of Australian locals who are interested in Chinese culture will download and browse, which is a better way. For the meaning of the bracelet, we have also carried out different degrees of interpretation.

In the weeks that followed, we made different videos and presentations. So that the audience can watch 360 degrees without dead Angle and appreciate the charm and value of each bracelet. And attached to the Chinese ancient music, so that everyone watching the video can have the experience.

Chinese people’s wishes for the New Year are represented by vibrant energy, favorable weather for the coming year, healthy family, thriving career, and smooth life.（Chinese Red colour）

Green represents health, longevity, environmental protection, and the beauty of nature. At the same time, green is also the representative of Chinese bamboo, symbolizing the hope of human peaceful development!

In the future research direction, it will focus on the customer experience and the wearing effect. As is well known, young people’s requirements for clothing and accessories have become deeply ingrained in people’s hearts, and the direction of fashion is also one of the mainstream trends for bracelets. Therefore, in order to make more people like and buy our bracelets, we have launched an activity. After customers purchase bracelets, we will shoot a set of buyer shows and send them to us. We will return these customers a red envelope of AUD 5 and inform them that we will put these photos on our social media platform for promotion, seek their opinions, and then make modifications. This can satisfy customers and increase the number of follow-up visits, while also allowing our Chinese style bracelets to receive free promotion, which is a win-win situation.

BCM112 Contextual Report

Since the project pitch, I have conducted a deep investigation and research. The main direction is to create an account for Chinese students in Wollongong to promote and sell Chinese-style bracelets. Because our scope is a little too broad for international students who are eager to come from different countries at the University of Wollongong at the beginning, I decided to start with a small part and then gradually develop it to study other people from different countries at a later stage. I am an international student from China, so my first choice is China. The social platform I chose is “Little Red Book”, a brief introduction to the software: “Little Red Book provides a platform for users in Australia to share shopping tips, travel tips and food recommendations. This content has attracted a lot of Australian users, especially those interested in Chinese consumer brands and culture.”

In conjunction with the blog post published in discord, we went to Glebe Markets in Sydney for our first offline sale to physically promote our Chinese culture bracelet. Throughout the day, we found that most Australian locals were very passionate about our bracelet culture and actively asked us about the meaning and cultural connotation of each bracelet. In this day’s sales, we also achieved good results, we got a total of 280 Australian dollars in revenue, and found a pattern. In fact, most local Australians are not particularly interested in bracelets with monotonous colors, but prefer those with lots of accessories. However, for Chinese people, these bracelets with lots of ornaments are flashy, so this is also a difference caused by different cultures.

After that, we posted this activity and content directly on the social platform “Little Red Book”, which unexpectedly received a huge response. Many Chinese people in Australia responded positively to our activity and left a message saying that they were looking forward to seeing us in the market next time and were also very enthusiastic to help us promote this culture. There are even some regular stall owners to share their stall experience and gave a lot of valuable advice. This corresponds to the Digital Engagement and Collective Intelligence we have learned in BCM112 class. A person’s thinking about creation and development is narrow, and the development and process of DA needs the public’s vision and ideas to constantly improve and update. Therefore, only by combining everyone’s opinions can we create the bracelet in the later stage more in line with everyone’s expectations and achieve good sales results. It has also made outstanding contributions to promoting the further development of cultural exchanges between China and Australia.

Similarly, the significance of this activity is also to carry out a relatively exemplary activity for realizing the integration of international students from various countries in Australia into uow University in the future. As far as I know, there are many international students from different countries in every university. Some countries are introverted and reserved, and they are not good at words and do not like to express their own culture. However, in my opinion, it is the most correct decision for everyone to show the unique charm of their own country and have good communication with people from different countries.

BCM325 Digital Artefact Contextual Report Part1

This article mainly explores the future technology, people use mobile phones to target the vehicle positioning and navigation system. For most people, navigation is essential, when you go to a strange country or a strange city, navigation can help you clear and tell you the exact direction and the exact driving route you want to get to. Especially for me, when I first came to Australia, I needed to use the navigation to find the teaching buildings and some restaurants of the school. Even now, the usage rate of navigation is still high, but in many cases, the navigation is not 100% accurate, and even makes me confused sometimes, so I hope to explore how the navigation system of mobile phones and vehicles in 2030 will complement each other and cooperate with each other to complete the cross-era connection and development.

Bell’s Sociology of futurology
1.Historical trend：According to Bell, combining the existing results and reviewing the historical trends of the previous development, we can roughly predict the need for future improvements or new directions of development. He especially emphasized the importance of historical achievements, and proposed that the future direction of development should be combined with the failure or success of history, so that it can be more in line with the practical significance and close to life prediction results.

2.Scenario planning：Bell saw the future as a series of possible scenarios rather than as a general prediction. He strongly encourages and advocates people to construct the blueprint of the future world from different angles and aspects and enlarge it infinitely. He will analyze the possibility and influence of each scenario to guide people on how to develop which is the most beneficial for the society or the future.

3.Social change and system innovation：In Bell’s view, social changes and institutions have a certain connection to future development. The promotion and development of society need constant reform, but in different countries or different doctrines, social rules and systems are different, and national conditions are different, so the prediction should be made according to the dynamics of social change and the possibility of institutional innovation.

4.Interdisciplinary and comprehensive：Belt stressed that the future prediction should be combined with the knowledge and analysis of various professional fields. In his opinion, the exploration and research of the future should be combined with the professional knowledge of various disciplines and the use of different methods to comprehensively understand the complexity of the future. Only in this way can the future prediction be the most accurate, scientific and possible.

Historical analysis of location and navigation data from mobile phones and cars

Combined with the development of mobile phones and vehicle positioning and navigation systems, we are not difficult to analyze the situation after. Nowadays, the positioning and navigation system of vehicles and mobile phones is based on the positioning of vehicles by software and then displayed in the simulated map, and then the positioning and navigation system is created by combining the physical AR system and the real world in the past two years. The existing problem is that the changes of the entity and the navigation of the vehicle cannot be updated in real time, including the interleaving of different sections on some highways, which makes it difficult for the navigation to show accurate routes at once. In my opinion, what needs to be innovated and developed in the future is to provide accurate road updates through the accurate positioning of satellites, and then link the navigation of mobile phones or cars, so that the road conditions can be directly displayed to the public, and the occurrence and report of emergencies can be accurately communicated to everyone.

Scenario planning combining positioning and navigation systems of mobile phones and vehicles

Google Maps Diverts Traffic into Dead-End Road: In 2017, Google Maps was criticized for directing drivers to a dead-end road in the rural town of Berry, New South Wales. The road, which was not designed to handle heavy traffic, became congested with frustrated drivers following Google’s directions.

“Google Maps glitch sends tourists into mud pit.” ABC News. August 21, 2017.

According to this example, we can learn that in many remote areas or places far from the city center, the map navigation system and positioning system are not so accurate. You can set up a scene, assuming that you are a lover who likes to climb mountains or explore the jungle, when you step into a more remote area, then the importance and science of positioning navigation can be shown, if the satellite positioning technology is now linked to the system of mobile phones and vehicles, then you can quickly find the exact destination.

Social change and institutional innovation of mobile phone and vehicle positioning and navigation system

By 2030, the wide application of navigation technology in our vehicles and mobile phones will provide more data support and decision-making references for urban planning and traffic management. Government departments can use navigation data to analyze traffic flow, road usage and other information, optimize urban road layout, traffic signal timing, etc., so as to improve the efficiency of urban traffic operation and the overall management level of the traffic system.

The interdisciplinarity and comprehensiveness of positioning and navigation systems for mobile phones and vehicles

The domain knowledge required to implement this possibility is very broad, we need computer science for database management, distributed systems and network technology. We need IT to do technical support for phone calls and tracking vehicles. We need communication technology, including telephone networks and wireless communication technology. We also need expertise in areas such as geographic information systems and engineering.

Artificial intelligence- generated images of vehicle and mobile phone positioning and navigation systems

As we can see from this set of images, there are infinite data systems in the information of the phone and the car, which are connected to each other to communicate the information and data you need

Conclusion

In general, Wendell Bell’s futuristic model emphasizes the methodology of studying the future, historical trend analysis, scenario planning, social change and institutional innovation, as well as interdisciplinary and comprehensive aspects, aiming to help people better understand and respond to the challenges and opportunities of the future. It is good to make the positioning and navigation system of vehicles and mobile phones more accurate and more applicable to different places, so that its existence plays a positive role in the progress and development of society.
