@TheBCMBot what is happening in BCM215 in week 7?

Att: BCM students! The Careers team are currently organising their mentoring program. There are 5 amazing mentors available in the comms/media/marketing space looking for students like YOU to mentor. This program is low risk, high reward. DM me TODAY if interested! @UOWDMS

'Future cultures' students @jess_dinning & @_Tara_W talk decarbonisation of the visual communication and book industries on RadioU “We can't leave any industry to the side, we have to consider everything.” #uowtv #radiou #bcm325 #futurecultures

Highlighted in the lecture, media's future involves both continuity & discontinuity. While some aspects (YouTube & Twitch) have a continuous connection to archives and arcade culture, other industries like journalism are experiencing significant changes due to technology #bcm325

@andreamrra Yes, exactly this! This is why decentralised solar power networks are better than monolithic nuclear power plants.

@_Tara_W We do, but we always make new mistakes. Our decisions and our mistakes make us who we are just as much as our successes. Regrets and achievements are very human - technology has gotten very good at showing us both.

@byronsmith2000 Yes, this is a great observation!

The metaphor of reaching your "mental capacity" can be seen as the side effect of having too much information readily available. The feeling of being overstimulated is widely felt by people in the modern world as social media gives us constant communication and information#bcm325

" there is no inevitability as long as there is a willingness to contemplate what is happening." - Marshall Mcleun. Can we avert the Anthropocene by imagining life back into existence? #bcm325 #midjourney

@saskiaplatzer1 We are collective beings.

#BCM325 "Everything Everywhere All at Once" exemplifies the essence of the presentational media paradigm, skillfully weaving visual narratives that captivate and transport audiences.

@andreamrra The film explores the consequences of technologies that allow us to see other realities and how we must confront being so small in such a big universe. But most of all, how important compassion is as a response to the nihilism that may result from confronting our decisions.

@JoshuaM06714142 It highlights the cyborg nature of the relationship between the human and the non-human to allow us to reframe the paradigm of our existence cybernetically.

#bcm325 the 'tech' being used half an hour into the film can be a clear notion to the tech used in most science fiction films where the logic behind what we see about the films is loosely based on pure logic and dwells on imagination which one can agree is more immersive.

#bcm325 The importance of a characters' upbringing is shown through a giant cybernetic machine that enables one to travel between multiple versions of herself to an extent where it can be odd to tell if she's the 'real one' or the product of the machine that made her this way.

@JoshuaM06714142 Interesting! Yes, it asks about the consequences of the applications that allow us to perceive the realities of others.

@camelliabizi @Gabriellel04 It's also representative of the nihilistic response to the overwhelming nature of that realisation.

THE BAGEL - a symbol representing the interconnectedness of different dimensions and realities. Overlapping narratives that exist within the film's multiverse storyline. It embodies the cyclical nature of existence and the idea that everything is connected in a cosmic web #BCM325
