However, none of these violate the right to life.

An additional 781 chemicals have not been studied. Yet fracking routinely injects the chemicals into the ground, forcing them through fissures in rock, where they contaminate aquifers, wells, and other sources of drinking water.

The workforce needs coders.

Re-conceptualizing coding as a literacy demystifies it and helps remove preconceived notionsthat only a select few can (or need) to learn it. This can broaden the pedagogical scope of coding literacy and open opportunities for learning to those who might not conventionally beengaged in the traditional conceptualization of coding

Biologists have shown that it’s a natural tendency of living creatures to fill up all available habitat and use up all available resources,”

This paradox produced by the increasing production, use and disposal of ICTs also directly impacts the management of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), or electronic waste (e-waste). Miniaturisation, device obsolescence, and the enhanced versatility of devices (for example, with the new generation of devices compatible with 5G) have contributed to the redundancy of older devices.

These include the emissions due to increasing the production, use and disposal of ICTs. In other words, we must consider the material cost of the ethereal imaginary of digitisation.

And while there are certainly carbon emissions associated with the traditional art world, if the point of blockchain art is to imagine something radically different, he wonders why avoiding climate destruction wouldn’t be at the top of the priority list. “We have to change our existing habits,” Akten says. “So how can we build new platforms that are unsustainable?

The idea is to offer some semblance of the authenticity that is naturally bestowed on physical art.

She changed her mind recently after seeing the interest of artists who had established themselves independently of blockchain hype—people like Lemercier. Some of the NFTs Carlson saw even looked like actual art. “The prices are still totally outrageous,” she adds. But both things can be true at once.

The works were placed for auction on a website called Nifty Gateway, where they sold out in 10 seconds for thousands of dollars. The sale also consumed 8.7 megawatt-hours of energy, as he later learned from a website called Cryptoart.WTF.

HODL, meaning to 'hold your investment long-term', and gas-fees, which refer to the price paid to ‘crypto-miners’ for transactions to be registered on the public ledger.

Also, NFTs have a feature that you can enable that will pay you a percentage every time the NFT is sold or changes hands, making sure that if your work gets super popular and balloons in value, you’ll see some of that benefit.

More than before, web platforms allow a better communication between spectator and creator, and more importantly, the possibility of convincing the audience to pragmatically get involved is greater

Up until the 1990s, VR and AR equipment, such as goggles and gloves, were mostly used for medical reasons, flight simulation, automobile industry design or military training.

Interactivity became the key feature of most new media forms and continues to be the subject of debate, as theorists try to define its complexity, and creators continue experimenting with it, pushing its boundaries.

Broadly speaking, the pioneers were the following authors: Charles Babbage, Herman Hollerith, Alan Turing, Norbert Wiener, Claude Shannon, Konrad Zuse, Jack Kilby and Joseph Carl Robnett Licklider. (Gifreu, "Emergence" 2

Both during WWI and WWII, film became a propaganda instrument, more so than  before. U.S. tried to justify its military action through the Why we fight   series, whose  production was overseen by Hollywood director Frank Capra, at this point enrolled as a major in the US Army Signal Corps.

But the painter-as-documentarist had only a brief moment of glory. There were reasons. His spurt of activity came at the last moment of the silent film. With the arrival of the spoken word, images were suddenly downgraded. Games of movement and texture were, for the moment, almost forgotten. Furious aesthetic battles over the uses of sound took their place. (Barnouw 80)

“Only the rich could afford toilets,” he said, adding that a famed rabbi once suggested that to be wealthy is “to have a toilet next to his table.”

s a form, it can be described as "literary works created with the use of a computer for the electronic medium such that they cannot be experienced in any meaningful way without the mediation of an electronic device
