HW: Lecture #3

Todays Lecture session was about Art and Technology, "How it us used to make things" and the "Critical relationship between art and technology." The speaker discussed three different parts in his series, or at least he said he was going to talk about all of these topics, though I do not feel like he accomplished this. The parts were 1. Separation 2. History (pre/post war) 3. Now What


We apparently live in a global age, where we can communicate across the world. It has come to the opinion of researchers that "new technology" is fighting with art because it makes it easier to share art, so "art" is depreciated in value.

When he discussed history he mentioned that after the war, artists tried to make it so that the viewer experience someone else's point of view and allowing them to gather information that they would've never gathered in their own everyday life.

Once the photograph was created expression and impressionism grew into the post war world like a wild fire.

Art has changed from generation to generation thinking that the skill of making things by hand has ended and we no longer seems to be being done. Which means that the new generation is losing originality, leading to limited being in expansion of skills.
