Films... Really!
I identify with technology. I am a nerd at heart. Always working on projects, pushing the envelope.
The film Bendito Machine III showed the relationship between man and technology. Let us say after several generations following a catastrophe people exist with only the remnants of technology. The belief that technology is somewhat like magic would exist. The technology is put together by someone who does not have all the information on what it does. Walking televisions intends to depict a melting of robotic design. For the life of me it does not make sense to have a walking television. That is just me.
The robotic qualities show us a blending of the past and possible future. However, at the end the technology goes awry and kills the people. The last piece is manned by a person so these primitive people are not so primitive and can run the equipment to a certain extent.
To me is shows no matter how sophisticated technology is it can be broken or misused.
The connection to the film Bendito and Inbox are they both use magic. In the Inbox messages are sent and received inside of bags between two people. This magic realism is evident throughout until the bag rips and messaging stops. Technology brings connection to people if they so chose.
When average people think of technology they think it is magic because they do not understand it. Who can build a computer from scratch, who can make a toaster, a radio, a television? Who can build a chipset? Everything we use in our lives was produced in parts all over the world. If the world ceases to exist as we know it who will build technology?
