As far as the production of the film, I found it interesting
that they reproduced an older version of the video and overlapped the new
version with the original. It provided a different prospective to the same
subject based on the different time periods that the both videos take place in.
However, the information that was provided in this video was difficult to
grasp.
The
flow of the film wasn't smooth and it gave a lot of information at once. I
think that the spectacle's affect on society is an interesting topic. It was
defined by the video as "a social relation between people that is mediated
by images." The video went further into detail about how the spectacle
affects society, but it was hard to take in all the information about it. Some
of the information seemed irrelevant/unimportant to the idea of the spectacle.
For instance, the entire concept of social dreaming, "as long as necessity
is socially dreamed, dreaming is a social necessity."
