| ==Description==
| |
| "Vague, but exciting."
| |
|
| |
| Writing these three words on the cover of Sir Tim Berners-Lee's first draft of "Information Management: A Proposal" in 1989, CERN supervisor Mike Sendell approved work on the research project that became the starting point for what we now know as the World Wide Web. Over the span of 25 years, the web has emerged from its roots as a hypertext experiment to help physicists flexibly mediate large amounts of information, becoming the killer app that brought the Internet into mainstream use and popular consciousness.
| |
|
| |
| Today the web is no longer itself just an application: it is both the fundamental architecture underpinning the largest structured collection of human content ever assembled, as well as the core technology central to the emergence and maturation of mobile and pervasive computing. In this module, participants are offered the opportunity to get acquainted with the technical fundamentals of contemporary web technology, and to develop the requisite skills necessary to creating and working with web content in artistic, professional and research contexts.
