Primary Blog Question
- When compared, the two film clips help illuminate a key question for this course: How has our relationship to technology changed over time?
After watching the two film clips, I believe our relationship with technology changed primarily within the area of accessibility. Today, one cannot go anywhere or do anything without some aspect of technology being involved. For example, when I go to the movies in Pittsburgh and I want a soda, I no longer have to physically pull the handle to release my desired beverage into my cup. Instead, there is a screen that has the logo/flavors of every drink offered and I simply use a touch screen and select the drink I’d like. Technology is more accessible, but it can also be considered a hindrance to our society by removing/limiting physical movement.

- How has film technology changed?
I propose that technology has changed over time by becoming more advanced. As a result of various technological inventions (coupled with trial and error), technology seems to have adapted overtime in a way that is easier for people to utilize for whatever purpose they wish.
How has our understanding of time evolved?
When I think of time, I understand that it is indeed precious and as each moment goes by it is imperative that we use it wisely and on what we consider to be meaningful.
Those soda machines freak me out. Wait. POP machines.
