Lost in the World Like Me


1. The general premise of "Lost in the World Like Me", is an examination of our current society. The video demonstrates how indulged people are in their phones and how their connection to their phones has warped their connections to human life and consideration of the people around them.

2. I would say the video was very effective in communicating its message. The lack of color, the imagery with the phone jails and especially the filming of the person about to jump from the building made an impact on my view.

3. I think the video is more of an examination of our current society. I think people in general can recognize the patterns in the video of being drawn to the phone and disconnecting from the people and things physically around them and apply it to themselves. I would also say its a warning because, if we keep this up as a society, its only going to get worse.

Art Generators

I liked this generator because you could manipulate the depth, shadow, color, size, etc. you could also upload previous work, which I did. This generator is cool because you can put in any word and it will generate a word accordingly. This word was dog.  I liked this generator because you could manipulate the background and how it faded as well as the color and course of the top layer. This generator was cool because all you had to do was drag your mouse and it would create something for you. I liked this generator because the products reminded me of light beams.

The Importance of Art

Tax dollars are wasted on a bunch of things. Art, theater, and music are not one of them. So much money is put into jails when it could be directed towards education.

Although art, theatre, and music are a workforce of their own, they are not legitimized in the way other cooperations are. Directing more focus or an equal amount of focus to the arts in high school could allow for growth in the in the open mindedness of students in pursuing a career in this field but also increase the amount of jobs in the art field further legitimizing arts as a work force. Directing more attention and tax money in this field would allow for a cycle that removes the stigma around art not being a real profession and growing it as a career.
