![]() Terror is the sounds of unknown creatures scratching at the door horror is seeing your roommate eaten alive by giant rats. Last year, Lincoln Michel contributed a brilliant essay on the difference between the two: “Terror is the feeling of dread and apprehension at the possibility of something frightening, while horror is the shock and repulsion of seeing the frightening thing. Terror and Horror – Terror and horror are often used interchangeably, but the two terms are actually quite different. It is interesting to see the ways in which these terms overlap, and it’s important to note that their exact “definitions” can be hard to nail down because of the way they have changed over time. ![]() In its earlier iterations, the term “grotesque” was used in a way that overlapped more with “the uncanny,” referring to works that blurred the line between the real and the fantastic, such as Kafka’s “The Metamorphosis,” in which the human protagonist is transformed into an insect. Gothic fiction often has elements of the grotesque, such as Mary Shelley’s monster in Frankenstein or the off-kilter characters in Flannery O’Conner’s stories. Very much like the uncanny, the grotesque draws its power from the combination of the familiar and the unfamiliar, or the familiar distorted. The Grotesque – Nowadays, when people talk about “the grotesque,” their meaning is closer to its adjectival form: “very strange or ugly in a way that is not normal or natural.” The grotesque in literature focuses on the human body, and all the ways that it can be distorted or exaggerated: its aim is to simultaneously elicit our empathy and disgust. And what’s exciting about this for writers of fiction, poetry, and creative nonfiction, is that it invites us to practice uncertainty.” A preview: “The sensation of uncanniness is, at its core, an anxiety about the stability of those persons, places, and things in which we have placed our deepest trust, and our own sense of identity and belonging. The Uncanny – What exactly is the uncanny? We can think of no one better to explain this slippery term and its history than Marjorie Sandor, who contributed an essay on the uncanny earlier this month. ![]() The Gothic tradition continues today in the works of such writers as Joyce Carol Oates and Julia Elliott. Gothic literature has evolved over the years to include subgenres such as Southern Gothic literature, which takes place in the American South and is associated with much-beloved authors Flannery O’Conner and William Faulkner, among others. The genre itself was named after the architecture that inspired it: the medieval castles and ruins in which much of Gothic literature takes place, and which often play a vital role in the narrative’s plot. Gothic Literature- Merriam-Webster defines Gothic as: adj., “of or relating to a style of writing that describes strange or frightening events that take place in mysterious places.” Gothic literature all started with with Horace Walpole’s novel Castle of Oronto in 1765, and the tradition was continued by writers such as Ann Radcliffe, and in classic horror stories like Frankenstein and Dracula. Here at TMR, we love scary stories, and it is useful to examine the vocabulary we use to describe the fiction that frightens us. Today, we are pleased to present the Halloween edition of our Literary Terms series.

If a younger child around 3 or 4 wanted to have their own profile, I say go for it. I play it with my 12 and 13 year old daughters. This game takes more skill and should be played by older children. People are very demanding on this game, and the level of patience is lower than on the dsi. I have played with two players as well, and it is much easier, but you have to come up with the right strategy because it is possible to fail even then. You have to keep changing your method on what you buy and do, because of failing, to pass the level. There are times when it seems impossible to get passed. If you are playing a single player game, it is much more difficult. This game is better than the Dsi because you can play a single game or play with up to three other players. It is much harder than the DSI cake mania. It's a fun, addicting, fast paced, challenging cake baking frenzy! It is very similar to cake mania 1 and 2. If you are l ooking for new cake mania because you have already played all computer cake mania's out there for the computer, you will not be impressed. ![]() The story line of this game is pretty stale. This game is very cartoonish.No SUPER JILL or anything. Nothing like some of the stuff currently on the market. The 3d effects are pretty basic, similar to the computer game. Though I am 36 and pretty easily amused as I haven't really played many video games since the Atari. I WILL be playing it again because it was pretty fun. Keeping in mind that i have only played this game one time and just got it yesterday. The character does not seem to move as fast on the wii as she does on the computer game and it is more difficult to keep up. It has a different feel than the computer game but a similar look. I like the cake mania computer games so i was very excited to try out the cake mania for the wii. Nearly middle aged gamer, easily impressed. I figured this out when I got it but luckily I only played the online free version so it wouldn't let me get that far as to ruin the Wii game. Do know that it is a repeat, for the most part, of the PC Cake Mania 3. Easy to get through if you play it regularly, I was done in a couple weeks just playing here and there, which was basically the same as the PC game. The graphics are great and it was cute to see my Mii show up as a customer in the higher levels. Also, when you point and click you have to be very precise because the clients/frostings are very close to one another in some scenes and this can slow you down if you don't click in exactly the right spot. Not sure it that is a glitch in the program, but it happened 3 or 4 times to me. The only problem I found was that a few times I would make the cake to specifications but the customer still would not accept it. At first it was annoying, but once I got the hang of it, I actually liked the challege that exceeded just clicking the mouse. This version of Cake Mania was more challenging than the PC version because you have to incorporate the different buttons on the Wiimote rather than just clicking the mouse. Figure is clear, limited, and near while the background is relatively unclear, unlimited, and far away.The figure stands out from the background while the background stays behind the figure.The figure has a clear outline while the background has no clear outline.Figure is organized than the background.The figure has a definite form while the background is relatively formless.We distinguish figure from the ground-based on the following characteristics: The distinction between figure and ground For example, when we see words on-page, or a painting on a wall, or the birds in the sky, the words, painting, and the words which stand out are perceived as figures, and the page, wall, and the sky are perceived as the background. Gestalt psychologists gave an important concept called Figure-ground segregation, which states that certain aspects of the surface stand out which is called the figure, and the other aspect of the surface which doesn’t stand out is called the ground or background. The form of an object lies in its whole, which is different from the sum of their parts. ![]() ![]() Prominent among the Gestalt psychologist are Kohler, Koffka, and Wertheimer.Īccording to Gestalt psychologists, we perceive different stimuli not as discreet elements but as an organized whole that carries a definite form. They proposed 6 principles, knows as gestalt principles to define this. And, the work of Gestalt psychologists is widely accepted in this area. ![]() Several researchers have tried to answer why we see a meaningful whole object rather than parts. Consider a motorbike, you don’t see parts of a motorbike, such as wheels, handles rather you see a meaningful whole object- a motorbike. If you see around you will realize that we see a whole object rather than the parts of the object. The mobile app synced up immediately and I was ready to use the password manager while on the go. If you don’t bulk add passwords from your browser, you can enter each one individually. The first task was setting up my free account.Īfter I clicked Import, the app offered to pull passwords from my browser or from several other password managers – handy if you’re switching providers.

Generally speaking, if the directional keys don't work in a menu, try -/ +.Įsc will almost always take you back to the previous screen until you get to the top level of the UI, at which point it will display the options menu. Sometimes you use the directional keys ↑ ↓ ← → and Enter to make menu selections, but sometimes you will need to use the alternate selection keys ( - and +) instead. Sequences of keys will be written with dashes between them, so a- b- C means "press 'a', then press 'b', then hold shift and press 'c'".Ĭursor movement, menu selection, and navigation Esc Lowercase and uppercase keys will almost never perform the same function, so it is important to use the correct key. So t means "press the 't' key without the shift key" and T means "hold down shift and press the 't' key". In order to save space, Shift+ t will be written as T. Most documents on the wiki use key symbols that look like t to indicate what keys are used for an operation. If you're looking for more UI help as you get deeper into your first fortress, you may also want to read this section in the Fortress Mode Guide. This is just the Quickstart Guide, so we skip lots of details on the UI. All the keys you can use in a menu are always shown on the screen somewhere. Also, don't hesitate to ask for help if you can't find answers on the wiki.Ĭontrary to what you might be used to, the Dwarf Fortress interface uses a combination of key presses, instead of clicking through menus with the mouse, so, for example, instead of clicking on the Build menu, then on the Workshop submenu, and finally on the specific workshop, you press b- w- c. Refer to the Fortress Mode Reference Guide or use the wiki search function. While the guide contains many links, you may still need to look something up. 1.2 Cursor movement, menu selection, and navigation. ![]() Metaverse platforms are likely to increase the potential range and amount of personal data that third parties collect.

To that point, UMGC is working to secure the new metacampus against the types of cyberthreats that bombard traditional enterprise IT today, Mintz said. UMGC leaders anticipate its immersive program delivering benefits such as enabling students to view artistic masterpieces as if they were seeing the art in the actual museums where they hang, said Daniel Mintz, chair of the university's department of information technology and one of the faculty members heading its metaverse initiative.īut those benefits don't obviate the need to look at the real dangers. Students enrolled for select fall classes at University of Maryland Global Campus will be the online school's first cohort studying within a "metacampus." UMGC's pilot program, done in partnership with VictoryXR and using Oculus Quest 2 virtual reality headsets, will offer a digital twin campus for both in-person and online students. Leaders at the University of Maryland Global Campus are among those dealing with metaverse issues. From security issues to the high environmental cost of blockchain and AI, business and tech leaders will need to confront a number of problems as they move forward on their metaverse strategy.
