assignment 4

After I watched TV series Black mirror, I thought Black mirror has no relationship with “realistic ”. In the movie, they are living small room surrounding black screen with same clothes. They have to see many advertisement if they don’t want to spend their cyber money.  Most life are based on their cyber money, they also have to ride a bicycle to earn cyber money. This repressed life is hard to watch and understand the movie is trying to say. But when I watch YouTube video at home, I had to see advertisement at least 5 seconds and found that I always hold smart phone (new technology), I felt I look like Bing. This makes me change my opinion like this movie might be realistic.

In the real world, nowadays, we are addicted to Media fantasy and spend too much time for entertainment. For example, we watch many audition programs like hot shot or many other incendiary TV program. And I feel that judges are high social class, and we are people that ride a bicycle everyday. We ride a bicycle to produce electricity for them. They live in comfort.  It looks like our community system. And two main characters accepted their offer to escape “bicycle life”.

In conclusion, this movie is all about the media influence in the modern society. As technology is developed, we might be controlled by technology.
