Thoughts about Video
"Your life on the internet." If this was 10 years ago, people would scoff at the absurd idea that the internet could be that useful. However, we live in 2013, a time when technology is rapidly advancing. People don't call this age the "Internet Age" for nothing. It's pretty scary when you realize that people post up their personal information so easily. In fact, they're probably unconsciously posting their personal information. I guess that we don't realize how easily people can find out about us. Social media makes it easy to connect with my friends, but also with the world.

Steven Johnson, Video or Animation
Truthfully, I think the video style was better than an animation. The subject about where ideas come from and the networks of ideas was best explained to me through the video. Maybe it's because I'm used to lectures from college, but this subject is, well, too subjective. Good ideas are, like Johnson explained, ideas that take many, many years to develop. One person's imagination is completely different from another's. That said, it was a bit harder for me to understand the animation because my perception of the words spoken in the animation was obviously different than Johnson's. His ideas in his words and pictures were a little bit difficult to understand. When he lectured, I felt more of a connection. Most likely, it was because I could see his face, understand his logic, and find meaning in his personality. I can analyze him like an open book.
