This will be my last blog as it needs to be finished for tommorrow to be marked! I just want to say that although I wasnt particularly looking forward to writing these blogs (as lets face it, it is uni work!
), I have actually enjoyed it, as I have found the issues within the blogs very interesting. I always knew that technology and the media played a big part in our lives, but it is intriguing and in a way partly scary to think about what our future may be like with these 'new media's' and technologies arising. Controversial issues have arisen throughout the blogs to do with ethics and so on, but who knows, maybe in the future, despite all the controversies, maybe we will be living in a world where we have human cloning or where we have a third arm! Some of us may be walking around with horns on our head like Orlan (although why anybody would wish to do that, I do not know!), while others may not even be able to distinguish whether they are living in reality or in a 'simulated world'! What does our future hold for us? Will it become a better place, or will it become a world of freaks!? Only time will tell. Do I want to be around to see it? Now that is the big question!
