"What are we talking about when we talk about art and technology" (B: Sadness High Cold Edition)

actually,

Art is not technology,

Technology is not art either.

We are easily misled,

The combination of art and technology,

It's all about the future.

Especially when we find:

Bionic technology, nanotechnology, 3D printing technology

Start leading the fashion trend

Fashion designer Iris van Herpen's haute couture dresses are based on bird flight and sound wave patterns.

The dynamic lighting installation was designed by Studio Drift.

but,

We are always forgetful,

Forgot to travel through the historical plot,

look for similar expressions,

feel the feelings of our ancestors,

Especially when we find:

Material synthesis technology finally allows us to wear whatever we want,

Modern cooking technology makes food delicious, and the taste is no longer rough.

prefab technology that lets us work in glass skyscrapers,

The internal combustion engine technology allows us to "run the car" without relying on a horse-drawn carriage,

Computer technology, let's fly planes in "space wars",

Photography, let us take a selfie without looking at the face of the portrait artist,

Film technology, let us be frightened and afraid of the rushing train in front of the screen,

Music recording technology, let us bring good music with us

turn out to be,

When we discuss art and technology,

we discussed,

It is still food and clothing,

Eat and drink.

We may not understand technology yet,

You may or may not understand art,

We just want to "open our minds",

We're just binge-watching again.

We are just as ignorant, small, conceited, and confused.

Black Mirror: Bandersnatch quotes

  • Dr. Haynes: The past is immutable, Stefan. No matter how painful it is, we can't change things. We can't choose differently with hindsight. We all have to learn to accept that.

  • Stefan Butler: I've actually had a bit of breakthrough with the game. I think I'd got bogged down before, but now I can see.

    Dr. Haynes: So you finally finished it?

    Stefan Butler: Finished, delivered, everything. I'd been trying to give the player too much choice. So I just went back and stripped loads out. And now they've only got the illusion of free will, but really, I decide the ending.

    Dr. Haynes: And is it a happy ending?

    Stefan Butler: I think so.
