matrix and the caves

So i was surprised that we were watching the matrix during class.
Since we started watching the clips right away I didn't really know
what to think... In my head I was trying to make all these different
connections. There was this one part in the clip where Morpheus
is trying to explain the Matrix to Neo. He was saying how you can't
really know what the matrix is, that it is everywhere, and everything
you might think is real is not really real. I thought that's kind of how art is...
Art its everywhere and everything can be art. Art could be interpreted
in many different ways. So yeah that's what i thought we were going to
be talking about, but i was completely off base. As for the caves,
 I'm amazed by how art can be so old! Whenever I learn about old
art or old anything I always try to imagine how the things will be like in
the future! I get lost in that idea...the idea that not only art will be
different, but society and technology will be different was well!
Well, to finish off, I'm very excited because my artist piece that's do on sunday
is actually going to be on one of the caves!

  1. Valerie,
    I was just as surprised as you when Professor Zucman put on the Matrix, haha. But I really liked how you connected what Morpheus said to Neo, about how the Matrix is everywhere, to art. I totally agree with you that "art is everywhere, and everything can be art." I also think that it is a bit crazy, in a cool way, that art constantly changes. Well thats it for my comment, nice post!:]
