Banksy - Exit Through The Gift Shop

I had previously watched this document and was blown away by the underground world of graffiti art. Banksy is completely anonymous and does his artwork at night in order to conceal his identity. He has traveled across the world and each of his artworks are a talking point for mass amounts of people. He is able to draw attention to unique and hard hitting issues that he believes are social injustices. It's incredible to see a graffiti artist actually make changes on a large scale.

Pop Art
Richard Hamilton was considered the father of pop art. He was known for his iconic creation of these collage based images. These unique images combined allow for a completely new direction in art. This style innovated a new area of art. It's interesting to see an entire scene created by individual images!

Dada Art

Dadaism is the movement of the European avant-garde in the early 20th century. The height of the movement began in New York in 1916. I wasn't familiar with many art movements, but this one was particularly interesting and sparked my attention. The textures allow for a detailed and appealing look while also maintaining the viewers interest by layering many unique patterns.

Andy Warhol's Forgotten Floppy Disk Art
I'm not familiar with much of Andy Warhol's artwork. However, the article that covered this rediscovered piece of art described this as a 'futuristic theme'. It's funny to see a group of completely outdated technologic items that were once considered 'futuristic' when it looks like a low end garage sale. This was created in 1985, which is interesting to reflect on the rapid development of technology as well as artwork.

Final Project - Performance Art

www.unity3d.com

On the Computer Tab of the website, there is this website listed as a gaming site that allows you to program and create your own video game. I checked out the website and googled this website to learn about what is offered. It is a powerful cross-platform 3D engine that is user friendly. Beginners are welcome on this site to learn how to begin programming. It allows you to create 3D games and applications for your desktop, web, mobile device, and consoles. It's shocking that a beginner can utilize this program and actually create an entire world and characters by programming. I couldn't imagine being able to single handedly create something without having extensive knowledge and courses on the subject.

Dial Up Sound
Dial up internet first debuted to the public in 1989. The World was the first provider of internet that used dial up, a computer system that remotely accessed the internet through a telephone line. This sound is a sound anyone born later than the mid 90s will definitely remember. I was very young when we got our first desktop computer. When we turned on the internet it would make this noise, which is engrained in everyone's mind. This is the start of the internet.
