a tool that will let everyday end-users create mashups by making it easy to extract content from web pages, process it in a data-flow manner, integrate it with other data sources, and direct it to a variety of useful sinks, such as databases, map services, and compilable source code that can be further customized.

What is JSON, anyway? Well, by a happy coincidence, it turns out that the syntax JavaScript uses for defining data objects is rather broadly compatible with other languages. This makes it a sort of lowest-common-denominator syntax for specifying data. Other folks have covered this better than I can, so I'll just send you straight to the source: json.org. One of the key benefits of JSON is that because it is essentially JavaScript syntax, browsers can "parse" JSON data simply by calling the JavaScript eval function. This is both easy and fast because it takes advantage of native code in the browsers to do the parsing. (This is also why JSON can be a security problem; if the JSON string actually contains non-JSON code, then calling eval on it is quite dangerous.)

Create a short video remix that explains what Remix Culture means to you. Using video footage from any source, including Public Domain and Creative Commons licensed work, we want you to produce a creative, educational and entertaining video remix that communicates a clear message to a wide audience. The video is to be no shorter than 30 seconds and no longer then 3 minutes in duration. This contest is being run to promote awareness of remix culture in an educational capacity by encouraging the fair use of a wide variety of content and also to create a new pool of work that explains what remix culture is to the general public. For more information on fair use, check out these guidelines from the Center for Social Media.

Following up my previous post sharing my students’ projects in my Media Technology course, the second assignment was to create a remix video that in some way offered a critical examination of media, posting it to YouTube to potentially generate some feedback from people who stumble across it. One of my pet peeves about teaching is that often you get wonderful student work that is, by design, written for an audience of one, and has no lingering presence beyond the semester. By asking students to blog, share, and otherwise publish their work, it both raises the bar for their own sense of engaging a community with their ideas, as well as offers an opportunity for faculty to publicize their excellent work.
