technology reaction

1. I think there are many consequences and benefits to technology  i think sometimes the consequences outweigh the benefits. it think bottom line thanks to technology were creating a more distant and less communicative nation, one that can build relationships hiding behind a computer screen letting people live in unreal realities. they can make up their entire life on a computer, work and socialize and this is creating an awkward generation. while were creating these social recluse we are also creating ways to make life easier and better such as GPS and all the learning applications you can visit, the fact that anymore all the information you want is at your fingertips and you just have to possess it and harness it all the multitude of what you can learn is incredible.


2. i think technology has broadly changed the way we view art, think of this, one wouldn't see half the art we see not if it wasn't for technology, i don't think i could just walk down a random street in Mansfield and see a Linksy piece. also technology is changing how we are, and how we interpret things such as art, art to me is anything that makes you feel so these internet "memes" could be considered art, maybe not in the same was as Picasso but you get the point. also were learning to make art the non traditional way with technology, i mean thats why we took this class, i cant draw or paint but maybe just maybe ill be able to create something using the technology we are provided with, but then again maybe not haha. :)
