My class and I have begun to watch this film which discuss's how the world of the arts has changed due to mass Media and technology. So far the film is very interesting to me. Being a fellow musician , visual artist, and me also living in the "new age" of technology, I see somewhat first hand how technology is changing the world of the arts. I will not go into much detail about the film now, for as a class we will be doing that later in the week, but I do wish  to share the music video. In the film, they interview an Irish musician by the name of Olafur Arnalds. He creates music by mixing classical with new age sounds and technology. This music video below is one of his. The video was done by a fellow fan of his, and after seeing it , he made sure that it became the official video for the song. Even though the movie only showed a second or two of the music video, it captured me. I then went home and watched it, finding myself on the brig of tears by the end. It s truly beautiful music and a beautiful video. Its amazing what technology can do.
