C:\Bob\Run: Inspiration


`C:\Bob\Run Inspiration`		`MAS110 FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTATIONAL MEDIA DESIGN`

`PB & J`		Every once in a while, several concepts combine, yielding a powerful new idea: Peanut butter and Jelly, the BLT, Wallace & Gromit. Nylon has brought the technology allowing the combination of Lite Brite and Pat the Bunny.

`Influence`		The role of the Lite Brites is obvious. The roles of color and low-resolution pointillism in the animations bring out enough detail to tell the story without having it interfere in the way a reader imagines the characters and actions in their minds. A more advanced display would turn into television with closed captioning, eliminating the role of imagination. Pat the Bunny is the touch-equivalent of `C:\Bob\Run`, with a circle of fuzziness right through the middle of the book. The parallelogram of visualization takes just as little attention to work with, and increases understanding and fun levels.
