A2 - postmodernism, filming gigs on your phone, and living without the internet

some questions...

do you film gigs on your mobile phone?

why?

who for?

what makes you want to do it?

and do you think you spend too much time on the internet...?

here's an article from the brilliant, left-field, music-and-more website thequietus.com about filming gigs on your phone

here's another article on a similar theme from the bbc website

finally, here's another article from the guardian about a man who stopped using the internet for a year...


read them, then look back at your postmodernism booklet - these articles give perfect examples of a number of the theories such as HYPERREALITY, ELECTRONIC VILLAGE,  BAUDRILLARD'S IDEAS, INTEGRATED CIRCUITS...

remember, REAL WORLD EXAMPLES are key to your success in section A in the exam - quoting from, and referring to, articles such as these is  a perfect way to demonstrate CULTURAL AWARENESS..
