Zima Blue

Zima Blue was a cartoon about feeling belonging and appreciating the simple things in life. The blue squares and other shapes he presented in his paintings represented his old self. He started as just an electronic pool cleaner who cleaned Zima blue tiles and later became a bigger and improved version of himself who he didn't even like. He was very powerful and even had a lot of human qualities. He missed being a simple blue tile pool cleaner and wanted to go "back home". "The search for truth was finished at last." 

This cartoon represented a different artist named Yves Klein Blue. He also included blue this shade of blue in his pieces, and later made that his entire art, just like the cartoon. His pieces are so special because of how abstract they are. They make you think and have a message behind each piece. He believed this color could change emotion, and he had a mission to show it. This blue color was believed to represent spirituality. His art was alive, and everyone made fun of him including the critiques. This made him feel like he wanted to go home as well, he wanted to feel normal again, just like Zima blue.

AI and Pinoccio

       “I want to be a real boy” is what both Pinoccio and David both had in common. In the book, “The Adventures of Pinocchio” and the movie, “AI Artificial Intelligence” both Pinoccio and David went through a lot and tried their hardest to become human. Pinocio was created as a wooden puppet who could speak, then learned to walk, and later became a real life boy. David was a Robot made with the ability to love. After David found out about Pinoccio becoming a real boy he insisted on finding the same blue fairy that humanized Pinoccio, so she can do the same thing for him. He thought that becoming a real boy would mean  his mother would love him more. They both had human qualities, but still didn’t feel like a real boy. No matter how well they both walked or talked they still begged the blue fairy to become human. David looked just like a boy, and had more feelings than some humans do. Throughout the movie he shows signs of emotion, and it is clear how much he r...

Space Odyssey

  “Hey, Siri what's your favorite song?” “My taste in music is rather unconventional. I doubt you’de like it.” Technology seems like a cool resource, but what if that was all we had. No more human contact or connection. Life would be so abstract, boring, and dull. Technology doesn't have feelings or emotions so how would we connect on a deeper level? We can’t. Do not get me wrong, Siri and Alexa know far more than all of us do but are they really BETTER than us? The world needs humans. Do you ever have a conversation with someone and are so invested, you can just sit there for hours without it getting dull? Alexa and Siri can’t hold a conversation for more than fifteen minutes. After a while, it seems like you are just talking to yourself. Asking Alexa to play music and what the weather is isn’t enough for us to interact with forever. We need emotion and feelings, and real ones too. Sure, Siri can say things like “I'm sad” but obviously she isn’t really sad. I told Siri i w...
