Walter Benjamin // Homework 3

I find Water Benjamin very interesting and important for a few reasons.

As a believer in progression and technology, it was only inevitable for the tech boom to occur. As a result, technology filtered it's way in the arts. I find visuals, especially photographs  and video to be immensely useful and powerful to reach an audience. Photographs trigger oneself through almost an idyllic nostalgic sense. This allows the view to be vulnerable to emotions and different ways of thinking.

Additionally, the advancements made in technology allow a much larger audience to view and understand work. Throughout societies, people learn from one another. This can be almost a good or bad thing depending on the way we look at it. This holds society responsible for what we take notice to. We, together, must be mindful of this as we learn in what we know, ensuring our morals match to what our minds choose to view, through both photographs, or any digital imaging.
