The Human Clock
What an invention! Finally a device that will tell the time in a more exciting way.
I think that this type of innovation is the best kind- it gets people across the world to come together and make something new. This is definitely the way of the future. People need to branch out and do creative projects such as the Human Clock, because after awhile, the regular old things get so boring. And- if everyone across the world is opening up to these cross-cultural communication mediums, then maybe this is one new way to create a peaceful understanding of each other.
Just like the Sesame Project, the Human Clock is making people come together in a fun way. The Sesame Project is probably one of the coolest things I’ve seen in awhile. I never knew that there was such a split between the Serbs and Algerians (I need to brush up on my news), but even better- I learned that there are ways, other than war, to get opposing sides in the same room. I just never expected Sesame Street to become the meeting ground. It will be interesting to see how this changes things, or if it does at all. It is important, like it was mentioned in the clip that we watched in class, to change the views of the latest generation, so that, if nothing else, future generations will be more tolerant and understanding of differences, and will have a greater chance of making this a better world (as cheesy as it sounds). Hooray for creativity!
