Zine - Week 3
In week 3 we had one week off from schoolm but still had to make a zine. This week I wrote my zine about what hacking really means, I got my inspiration from the Dutch class discission.
pageDiscussion notesText:
What about the term ‘hacking’? The group did not know the real meaning of hacking.
A meaning for the term "hacking" is: “Hacking is finding applications that are not intended by the creator of the resource, especially with regard to computers. Complexity does not play a role here, on the contrary, easy and fast alternative solutions are preferred (Wikipedia, 2020).”
In other words, with hacking resources you want to make life easy for yourself. Even though the goal you want to give to the product has not been the end goal of the maker. I think this looks a lot like the "Lifehacks".
What are life hacks?: "The term life hack refers to unconventional use of ICT and other simple tools that help people cope with an abundance of information (Wikipedia, 2020)."
In a positive way, hacking is a way for people to change the purpose of a product that fits their personal needs.
Does this makes us all hackers?
