Artifact 2



      It's an advertisement by Verizon on one of their phones called Droid 2.The way we use cellphones have changed dramatically over the years. Cellphones were meant to be use to communicate with one another, now it can do a whole bunch of things like surfing the web, taking pictures, recording videos, play games and a music player. Back then cellphones were use for one reason and one reason only, to be able to talk to communicate with one another. Now we can even communicate through email, and texting.

      Almost everyone has a cellphone now. It's been use everywhere to go, it's like were cyborgs.We need the phone to carry on through life. Cellphones separate us from talking to the real person since the voice we hear is not a real voice, but a digitized voice.I chose this video because many people think its real but cellphones wasn't like it used to be.

  1. I like that you put a video rather than a picture because its more descripted.But i think you should write more why you choose this video and how it relates to the topic.

  2. I have to agree with Raissa--we need to know why you chose this video and how it connects to artificiality/simulation in the modern world.
