My idea for project one is the future of health. I am planning on being a nurse in the future and from what I have already studied there have been many advances in medical technology. My project will focus on the introduction of robots to replace many jobs. Today there are already robots that will bring you your medicine. I think that the use of robots will become more widespread. I do not think that robots will replace humans indefinedtly, but I do believe it will come a more common occurrence in the hospital. Also, I believe that there will be many advancements in technology alone making it more efficient and modern.
Prompt Number Two
BLOG PROMPT TWO: Appropriation and Collaboration In B Flat (2011) by Darren Solomon and Thru-You (2009) by Kutiman PLEASE ANSWER BY POSTING COMMENTS. From A Dictionary of Modern and Contemporary Art, "Appropriation in art is the use of pre-existing objects or images ... To appropriate means to adopt, borrow, recycle or sample aspects of (or the entire form of) human-made visual culture." Collaboration is when more than one person intentionally work together to create a work of art. Interact with In B Flat and watch at least one song from Thru-You (I recommend "Mother of All Funk Chords"). Briefly describe these art projects in terms of appropriation and/or collaboration.

An interesting and important area of technological research. Good "healthcare" is truly a marriage of science and compassionate interpersonal communication. It will be interesting to see how this is addressed in the future. My own insurance company is really pushing distance care right now - video chatting with doctors and nurses rather than making office visits. Though these caregivers aren't robots, I'm certain AI researchers are investigating this possibility - among many others in the health industry.
