Many of us in one form or another are the technical achievements. We rejoice in the new iPhones, apps, smart TVs, tablets and so on. We all understand how these devices facilitate our lives. But we also need to be aware of how they affect our health.
The impact of new technologies on our lives
Experts say that text messages increased the number of car accidents, resulting in increased and the number of victims. In addition, they never cease to tell about accidents that happened because of self, problems with posture resulting from constant communication messages. Now even talking about reducing the abilities of people to communicate without phones. And it's only a few ways in which we use technologies nowadays. If you decide to know what changes in our world occurred through phones, laptops, etc., would the good outweigh the bad, do you think?
Imagine a situation where the Barista makes you a latte, but suddenly leaves his workplace and runs to the phone. It turns out that he needs to catch a pokemon! As we know, such cases occur more often.
The hype around Pokemon GO
Pokémon GO was the cause of the present commotion. Children and adults do not behave quite adequately, taking virtual reality very seriously. With features such as Poke Stops, which provide players with items to attract pokémon, and Pokémon gym, which serve as places for team matches, this game has become a social MediaPlayer. However, around it there are more discussions, as there were reports of various accidents, including fatalities. Some governments have also expressed concern about the safety of the game. As a result, in some countries there is a legislative ban on the game. Iran became the first country in the world where this happened.
"Control"
While the media constantly debate around this issue, others expressed their opinions in unique ways. Take, for example, a Polish Illustrator Paul Kuczynski, who is known for his political cartoons that constantly appear on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. My feelings about the game he expressed in his new work. It depicts a happy Pikachu that sits on the neck of the gamer. The boy's head lowered, and his mouth he the reins held in the hands of the pokemon. At this time, the lad's whole attention is focused on the smartphone screen. Kuczynski called the work "Control".
This Illustrator is known for their special look at such issues as authoritarianism, party politics, cruelty to animals, the dependence on mass media. He exploits the aesthetics of surrealism, skillfully uses visual metaphors. Of course, black humor – this is his element.
New job Kuchinsky has received nearly 30 million views and half a million likes and shares. The figure creates a sense of presence of the game: it distracts teenagers who become victims of various accidents, and also involves surveillance.
According to Kuchinsky, this is a hot topic currently. He does not mention this figure or idea the best. "Control" was a response Kuchinsky on the great success of pokemon.
Do you feel that you are also addicted to this game? Perhaps even, it begins to oppress you. If so, the cartoon titled "Control" will make you wonder: is this people play GO Pokémon or pokémon began to play with them?
