Transcript: FEED In "Feed" the gang and almost all the characters use slang and inappropriate language as though it's acceptable because when something is repeated time and time again people begin to think it must be correct or acceptable in this case. People now, we are beginning to use inappropriate words and connect them to new meanings that deteriorate the word until we don't even know the meaning anymore and throw these words around like they're nothing. For example people have begun to use the word "retard" with the meaning of a person who has made a mistake or is being idiotic instead of its proper definition. The word is not politically correct nor socially acceptable, yet people use it in everyday conversation. Other examples include "Gay" which is commonly used to replace words like lame or stupid. Among teenagers words like dude, sick and dope are common even though they aren't real words. This is like in Feed, they use words like "meg," "unit," "null" etc. which we aren't sure of the meaning but we have an idea about what they mean know are not part of the English language, It's slang. When Titus is in the hospital, feed less, on page 47 he describes what life was like before feeds. "They had to use their hands and their eyes. Computers were outside the body. They carried them around outside of them, in their hands, like if you carried you're lungs in a briefcase and opened it to breathe." Titus thinks that the way we use computers today is very difficult compared to using the feed. He can't imagine ever having to carry a computer instead of having a passage to the online universe inside your head. Titus and the gang struggle to live without the feed for a short period of time, I'm not sure what would happen if they're feeds had to be shut off completely. This reminds me of my generation who can't comprehend a life without cell phones, and computers. Children these days don't understand that we didn't always have all the technologies we have today, they used to use an encyclopedia not Wikipedia, and they couldn't just type something into Google. Typewriters don't have spell check, if they made a mistake they had to restart. My generation reminds me of the gang from Feed because we can't imagine computers and cell phones not existing just like they can't imagine feeds not yet being invented. "I went up, and willed the light. The light was worked by a string. You pulled it sometimes, and the light went on" said Titus on page 193. The light in the attic of the house was old and wasn't up to date with feed technology. Titus had to manually turn the light on and off by puling the string instead of being able to do it through his feed. This is the equivalent of today's "clapper" which makes the lights go on and off with just the sound of a clap. With the clapper it is still manually turning on or off the light but it's just easier. The clapper and the feedlink lights are both prime examples of our increasing laziness as human beings. We cant even get up to go turn the light on or off we need to be able to do it without moving from our place. Going from the light switch to the clapper to the feedlink light also show the evolution of our technology. First we have to get up to use the lights then the clapper allows us to use the lights by simply clapping then feedlink allows us to use lights without even the slightest movement, because its all in the feed, you just need to think "light on" or "light off." Craters full of pop cans, bubble gum asteroids, and people watching days, weeks, months, years go by, unaware of their fate. “Wall-E” by Pixar and Disney and “Feed” by M.T Anderson are similar in many ways. They bring up Technological and Environment issues and present a dark look into the future of the Human race and earth. Being set in the future it’s not difficult to imagine that technology is prominent in society. In the book “Feed,” Titus says: “…and I couldn't do a fuckin' thing,” while in hospital after he and his friends were hacked at the Rumble Spot. Titus expresses how lost and how little he can do without the feed, this shows how people rely too much on technology as they already do today, imagine how much worse it would be hundreds of years in the future. All he could think about was things he could have been doing on his feed, he doesn’t know what else the world has to offer because humans have been so consumed by technology for so long. Past lifestyles have been whipped out and lost in translation. In the animated film by Pixar and Disney “Wall-E,” people are reliant on technology as well. Being in space for hundreds of years they’re bone mass and muscle tone have decreased drastically. People remain seated as tracks on the floor bring they’re chairs wherever they’d like to go. They’re eyes rarely drift from they’re screens where they chat virtually with friends that may be sitting right next to them. When a man falls from his chair he can’t lift himself back on it, he needs to wait for a robot to

Transcript: Charter of Liberties The Mayflower Compact The Articles of Confederation The compact remained as the governing law until the Plymouth colony was incorporated into the Dominion of New England in 1686. This heightened tensions between religious groups in the area. The dominion was a combination of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and Connecticut into a single province headed by a royal governor. Finally a union of us all under one government!

Transcript: The ideas of the Enlightenment inspired the French Revolution. The Revolution was based on the principles of liberty, and equality. Philosophers of the Enlightenment favored limited monarchy, freedom of speech, and equality. People wanted to be more independent with these ideas, which let them to industrialize by starting business´. Also, these ideas of enlightenment lead to imperialism because people wanted to spread their power. Word War 1 happened because people realized what they wanted, so as countries spread their power war came about. How did the French Revolution lead to Industrialization? How did Industrialization lead to imperialism? Imperialism is a system where a powerful nation controls and exploits one or more colonies, taking over new lands or countries and makes them subject to their rule. By 1900 the British Empire extended over five continents and France had control of large areas of Africa. Enlightenment Imperialism The French Revolution was a period of social and political upheaval in France and its colonies beginning in 1789. The French Revolution was a period of social and political upheaval in France and its colonies beginning in 1789. World War 1 Simply it was a cultural movement of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It stressed reason, logic, criticism, and freedom of thought. Many people were eager to participate in WW1 because they wanted to gain more civil rights and emphasize individualism Enlightenment Relations European Expansion included tensions between alliances, European nationalism, and militarism. All these effects of European Imperialism lead to the outbreak of World War I Industrialization boosted imperialism by providing technology which helped Europe project its power further and harder. Connect The Dots French Revolution Started in England and spread through Europe. WW1 Relations How did Imperialism cause WW1? Enlightenment - French Revolution - Industrialization - Imperialism - World War I Was a European intellectual movement of the late 17th and 18th centuries emphasizing reason and individualism rather than tradition. Industrialization French Revolution promoted the spread of industrialization starting in Britain spreading to Europe. The French revolution increased need for a more modern and industrialized way of life. Industrialized countries found they were able to obtain cheaper resources from their colonies than from other countries. They wanted to gain colonies so they could obtain the resources needed in their industries. World War I began in 1914 after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and lasted until 1918. Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire (the Central Powers) fought against Great Britain, France, Russia, Italy, Romania, Japan and the United States (the Allied Powers). New military technologies and the horrors of trench warfare, caused high levels of death and destruction. By the time the war was over and the Allied Powers claimed victory, more than 16 million people—soldiers and civilians alike—were dead. The Industrial Revolution marked a period of development that transformed largely rural, agrarian societies in Europe and America into industrialized, urban ones. The creation of power machines and factories provided many new job opportunities. The new machinery increased production speed of good and gave people the ability to transport raw materials. Countries became modernized and industrialized and wanted to use their power and spread their colonies by taking over others.

The expansion of cities attracted not just industrialists but arts and cultural institutions. It brought together new thinkers and many of these new thinkers were ordinary people who would achieve extraordinary things. Enlightenment Connects to Industriaization Although the Enlightenment took place many years before the outbreak of the French Revolution, its ideas and achievements still had a profound effect on the French Revolution. The ideals of liberty and equality, that were needed to overthrow Louis XVI, came from the writings of important and influential thinkers of the Age of Enlightenment. The writings of John Locke, Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Baron de Montesquieu greatly influenced the revolutionaries in France.

They also felt they needed captive markets in which to sell the goods produced in the factories. Industrialization Connects to Imperialism Industrialization played a major role in World War 1. It allowed for new machinery to be produced and at a much fast rate than ever before. It brought new weapons and technology for the war.

The ideas of enlightenment caused people to realize what they wanted so as countries spread their ideas and used power, war started. Industrialization and Imperialism As the revolution rose, one way this sparked industrialization because it increased the need for weapons. Many new complex weapons were invented causing Europe to become more industrialized. Enlightenment and the French revolution are closely related as they were both based off the same ideas for example individualism. People wanted to be independent so they revolted to spread their own thoughts. Connect the dots The ideas of enlightenment sparked an idea of nationalism and countries wanted to spread themselves across Europe taking over other areas.
