2 questions

The Work of art in the age of mechanical reproduction.

1. Reproduction: it is made by people who want to fill selfishness. They wanted to have quality of the art in low prices. However, the reproduction has positive and negative parts such as people could earn education or the lost of aura of real one, the value of the work, are missing. The reproduction are deep into our lives if it is can not be reject there could be many ways to make this to more positive. What people need to do? Moreover, what is aura? What is value of the work? In the book, the author mentions “the accent is on the value”, “the exhibition value of the work.” What is different?

2. There are some of step of reproduction such as copying the work, by the photo, by computer, movie, and advertising. Furthermore, what is gab between audience and artist? Is that really impact the audience because there are mechanical system between art work and audience? Moreover, is mechanical reproduction not art?

The cognitive style of power point: pitching out corrupts within

1. Even the Power Point lost their meaning; there are many great power points that are use for the business. It could be unmeaning or no useful but there are plenty ways to make this power point work better.

2. The Edward R. Tufte’s idea of the good power point might works good for most people. However, I think it is more personal thing. I mean it could be more weight on personal opinion. I greed with simplify of the design of presentation and text. They are good ideas but sometime people need more word or more expiation. I think people need develops their own way to make good presentation.
