PICTURES? MEMORIES? Oh you meant Photography...

Image
^^ I use a great Icon, Kobe Bryant who unfortunately passed away in January. His life in photographs allow us to remember him in our memories and all of his great ventures throughout his career. This is the product of photography and why it is so important for our own memories as well as others. In part 3 of unit 3, what I like about this is the transition from text to photos because it relates to how our technology and how media has gone from texts to photos and how they are in correlation with one another. The aspect of photography is so relevant that people have been getting paid a lot of money to do it over the years and even now getting paid millions to do so. Even with the apps we use, photography is something everyone does on a regular basis. When I say that photography has evolved, look at the apps such as Instagram and snapchat.

\ This is literally the map of the world, but every moment we wake up and take a step we are stepping into the world and wayfinding ourselves through it. Me (buzz) telling everyone else (woody) that we are wayfinding ourselves through the world through each step we take. Everyone confused about how we are wayfinding ourselves through the world In general, when it comes to the ideal of wayfinding and maps it’s something, we all do every single day. Everyday we all wake up with the ideal of having to go somewhere or with the knowledge of knowing our environment and knowing where we would like to go and how to get there from where we are hence the term special problem solving. In this case it’s important in our everyday life to have this ability because everyday we wake up with a purpose. Even if its just walking to the kitchen to make breakfast, we have to know where we are and where we end up going. Wayfinding and maps are just a part of our lives no matter how we see i...
