  1. Okay first of all you don't look bad.

    Now that that's out of the way, I think that throughout the whole video you look rathe bored. Even though you were doing somethin it looked like you wanted something else to do. i.e the part where you did the giant sigh.

    It was funny when you pulled out your phone and started texting while being on the computer. (Not sure if that was part of the plan or not) But still pretty interesting.

    Your video was pretty cool.

  2. I enjoyed reading your writing about the video, and I liked how there was someone holding the camera for you and you were talking to them and then you told them to stop because its started recording. Hahah, and then after a little of talking to that person that’s holding the camera for you I felt like you forgot all about them you forgot that there is someone in front of you and you were focusing on the fb or MySpace whatever your doing on the internet! And then texting and then back to the computer! It toke your attention to forget someone sitting in front of you.



    While you’re sitting on the internet I guess on (fb or MySpace) you were surprised from something to the level that you were chewing gum and when you saw that thing on the internet your face gave the surprised expression and you stopped chewing the gum both in the same time!



    I connect how she stopped chocking gum and had the expression face to what we were talking in the class (disbodiment/displacement) that’s the person lose his/her control on what there doing from there face expression to stop chewing the gum to probably moving there hands or screaming, and that’s what happened with you Sarah you stopped chewing gum and your face gave the surprised expression!


    You could have showed us what were you doing on the internet(your on MySpace or fb or watching videos on YouTube) and like it would be good too if you had a headphones on to show that you be doing more than one thing in one time like texting and computer and listening to music, even though when you be focusing on the internet or texting you forge the music you don’t hear the music anymore for a second in some how!




    The video makes me consider if I be giving expression faces a lot and I was wondering how like all are attention goes to the thing were doing on the (computer or phone …etc) and we forget what were doing or the place were sitting at or even the people were sitting with! And it makes us sometimes to hold are selves from using the bathroom or eating if were hungry! But if it was homework to do we would go use the bathroom and eat and do everything and keep the homework till the end!




    I really liked your video because it made me feel like I’m not just doing a homework I actually felt like I am learning something through this!

  3. Hey Sarah,

    I thought that your video was fine. I didn’t notice the eye thing until I read your comment for the video. And even afterward it is barely noticeable unless you look for it specifically. I also like how you asked questions and questioned your motives for doing videos in the past. You also noticed that you were nit picking at the video. I also like how the video show how you were multi tasking you were using the computer and then half way through you started to text. They tone of the post was overall very direct. You stated how you felt and questions you had when you watched your video. That made the video more real. And last of all I appreciate the questions you asked.

    The overall idea of the video and post was that we do things that do don’t notice and that was sometimes do things without intention. When you questioned you motives for doing video messages of Facebook before you stated how you did it because you could and because everyone was doing it. But a part of you also thought it was cool and fun to do. All of the video and digital you were doing was used to talk to someone else. But the biggest idea I think I got from watching and reading the post was the question WHY? Why do we critic ourselves? Why do we make Facebook videos and why should we care? I think these are all valid questions that the reader should keep in mind and think about. One reason I came up with is to waste time.
    I would rather do anything else then homework or any other work sometimes. If you spend your time busy doing other stuff that isn’t needed then when it is time to do Homework our excuse is I don’t have time. I usually do my homework last minute. If a paper is due next Monday I will not start until the Sunday before and by that time I am usually screwed. And applies to other work to. When my parents ask me to clean the house up I usually say I don’t have time for it I have to do homework.

    All of you questions got my thinking about our motive. We all mostly agree that the digital is bad for us but yet we can’t stop. We say that we are addicted but we don’t know why. And I think if we can figure out the why then be can begin to try to fix this problem if we wanted to.

    I like you post but I think that if it was longer and you had developed your ideas more that you would have a much richer post. One thing you could add is maybe what a friend thought about the answers to your questions or expand on what you thought was the answer. I think detail would help the reader connect more and have more ideas when they read your post. A detail you could add is maybe a story like you last post. Anything that would help me and anyone else get an even further understanding. It would also help people develop more idea base on what you wrote.

    Great Post/video Sarah. Look forward to reading the next one to get more ideas.
