The Machine is Us/ing Us

I love this video because it beautifully demonstrates the argument that our relationship to machines, and especially the internet, is incredibly complicated. We have created each of the technologies that we use on a regular basis, but we are also being created by our use of these technologies. And as we and our technology advance, this intermingling of both identities will become even more difficult to sort out. The guy that created this video is brilliant.

Japanese Learning English

Those are the key words I use to find this video on youtube when I want to share it with others. And I can always find it. I think I just stumbled upon this video during a random search through youtube, and I am always glad that I found it. These women never get old to me. I just wish that I understood Japanese culture better to know what purpose this served.
