The 5th Element: Fashion Show

The 5th Element Fashion Show: 
my group members were Emma and Olivia. I represented the enlightenment of humanity which connects to "the divine light" in the 5th element. It represents hope for the future of humanity, and the positive side of life if we keep our planet healthy, and continue with technological advancements. Emma represented the dangers that can lead to darkness. It connects to the "giant ball of black fire" in the movie. It represents possible dangers in our future if we continue down a path of overconsumption and poor environmental choices. It could also connect to other sci-fi films through the death and chaos advancements through technology brought to humanity, and how sometimes it can affect us negatively as well. Olivia represents the in-between. This relates to the time before "the great evil" returned. It represents "the now" instead. It displays the push and pulls between light and darkness. It further connects to the importance our daily decisions have on the future.

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...
