Week 2 Film 3 & 4

 In contrast to the first two films, both these films depict a  dystopian existence for their people. One uses games, the other a tracking device. Both the films show us an understanding of "us" as the technology interacting with our environment.

Today a chip in a cell phone can track a person from cell tower to cell tower. These chips are commonly used in forensics for crime evidence. Even though the chip is here now, our society has misgivings about the chip and our freedoms. Will the implanted chip ever make its way into our society as it exists today? I doubt that, however, who knows what the future will bring, what leaders we will elect, what freedoms will are willing to give up?
