In 50 years I would think media would be completely different; It gives me that impression because of the rate technology and media are advancing nowadays.
Maybe phones, computes, tv, everything would me more like that 3d experience about everything being more with that idea of being immerse i the experience.
Also think that media and technology would be in every part of our life and we would depend on it even more than what we depend on in now.

Media in 15 years
In 15 years I do think media would be very different, maybe our phones would be more like a little computer, we could do many different things from it and maybe we would rely on it more.
I also think that touch screen would be more and more common, I think most computers and phones would be that way. Now 3d TV's are starting, but in 15 years I think this would be more common and even more advanced.
I think they would also think about video games in a different way, maybe more realistic and also with that idea of feeling immerse in the game.

Media in 5 years
In 5 years I think that media won't be too different. Nowadays media is so advanced, we can basically do anything from anywhere.
We can already see people through some phones , we can e mail, go to the internet, have gps and many other things that a few years ago we would never imagine. Some TV's are already 3d and and 3d movies are becoming more and more common.
I think in 5 years this things that are beginning now would be advancing and our 3d experience would maybe be more realistic, but I don't think it would be to different from what is now.

Videogame narrative
To be honest I never thought that the stories of videogames were really deep and important, but after this assignment I tried to look at videogames in another way and now I think a little different.
The videogame that I focused on was The Legend of Zelda. In this particular videogame the story is important, the whole game revolves around one character that is trying to achieve something.
The only thing that I think is different with the narrative of a videogame is that there is a basic story, but it changes depending on what the person that is playing does. So in a way the stories are customize based on each person.
Now I do think that the stories in a videogame are important. The story makes the whole game, without the story, the game is not as interesting. But I also think that not all the videogames need a basic story because anyway you play it you make your own story.

Pattern recognition
Pattern Recognition is a story about a woman who works in advertising. She has the ability to find things in meaningless information. She finds patterns in things.
She was hired to find the people who created some videos that are posted in the Internet.
She starts talking with some people on a discussion board on Internet and they tell her that they know what is the hidden message on the videos. She goes through a series of thing to try to get that hidden message.
I think this story is about how people wish to know more of what they are supposed to. And also is trying to show us that trying to get more information sometimes have consequences.

The story also focuses on all the aspects of Asterios life, from his childhood to his present life.
I an not really familiar with graphic novels, but I thought this one was very interesting, not just the graphics but also the whole story.

Female Body image
Nowadays people are really obsessed with how they look and sometimes they go to extremes to change their images.Girls now think that having the darkest tan is really attractive and go thru many things to look really tanned. Tanning is not the healthiest thing to do specially with no skin protection.
The image that I have is of a girl that has a really dark tan; she also has really heavy make up, hair extensions and bleached blond hair. This is how some girls try to look like nowadays and to be honest it worries me a little.
