Sleeper

While I found the movie quite humorous I found the subject rather disturbing. The idea of going in for a routine surgery and waking 200 hundred years later and your life has changed. The future is very unpredictable, but I sincerely hope that it does not turn in what we saw in this movie. I idea of not having relationships and being less and less depended on human relationship is shocking. All humans need other people to be there for them, someone they can connect with. It helps people to grow into individuals and express our emotions. We will lessen our quality of life if our future looks anything like the future in this movie.

After watching a little bit more of the movie sleeper I could not even begin to imagine life being the way it is in this movie. Everything just seems too far fetched and if this is how life truly will be someday then our society is going to be pretty lazy. I know that the robot idea has already come into effect to some extent but if we get robots to actually do all of our house work and hostings for all of our gatherings then the traditional preparations for a party are being left out. The preparations for a party can all be a part or way to interract with others and to stay engaged with the party. We will no longer have to do anything for ourselves it appears. It goes back to what Borgmann says about the traditional culture of the table. The phrase refers to staying engaged and interractive with society and doing things the focal way with focal points and practices rather than doing it the new and easy way with the devices. To some extent our world is being taken over fully by technology and we are no longer doing things that make us independent and different from one another.
