In this lecture we watched a video called WTF is the internet by We are the internet which had good points on what the internet actually is and shows how much we take the internet for granted.
In this video a lot of good points were made about the internet. The internet is humanity and it gives people a voice too speak. If we were to understand the internet as a culture it would make sense, we take the internet for granted because it there at the touch of a button and has never been more involved in humanity's life style like it is now. Your computers,tablets, phones and now even watches! The internet is constantly around us were ever we go. You can pick up wifi almost anywhere, you can access the internet enywere without wifi using 2G, 3G and 4G. Internet could be posivitive depending on the person using it. You are what you post! The internet is a opportunity factory. Anybody anywhere can post on line and any body anywhere can see the talent. The problem is there so much talent out there so its becoming harder too be recognised for you talent so people are taking risks to be recognised which could be really successful or you could fail miserably. "Genius is the talent of one person, Senius is the talent of many people." - Brian Eno. The internet is a place were people take risks and show creativity and much more. The internet is 'senius'.
Cybernetic comes from the greek word for Art of Stearing. Questions to help me with my project : What defines you? And How does interaction with others affect that? These are brilliant questions to help our project get started it really got me thinking about how I look on social media. After this lecture i began too look at friends and the people I follow on instagram too look what kind of thinks they post. I noticed it was mainly Gym, Fitness, Outfits, Food, Holidays/Travil and decided that i would make my project biased on this. Comparing my self to others on instagram I just need to think of how too show this idea clearly and successfully.
