essay on manufactured landscapes video [3]
Aurora Delorme
In the film manufactured landscape is about how the industrial world is taking over the natural world. In china they e-waste all electronics and have ruined huge amounts of land and underground reservoirs. Some places have to have water shipped in, due to no clean water. They just let the e-waste sit out to soak into the area
There are tones of other areas that are affected by humans not disposing things well. The pacific ocean for example. In the There is a swirl of plastic; this swirl is twice the size of Texas. We have recently found out that there are 4 other garbage swirls in the world's oceans. They are all located in the north Pacific, south Pacific, north Atlantic, south Atlantic, and the Indian Ocean.
These are doing lots of damage on our food source the fish die and then animals that eat fish die and the people that eat the animals die. Animals all over the world are being found with plastic in their systems or around their necks.
All these problems are caused by mans longing for power and knowledge. But because we "need" to keep creating new and better things we are giving others a reason to just throw out what they have and we don't have a proper way of deposing it. Before we keep creating things we need to master a proper way to dispose of what we already have. That's what I grasped from the video we watched on Tuesday May 22/2012 in photography class
