Star Spangle Banner V. Allegiance

            The Star Spangled Banner is a very controversial term in the classrooms throughout the United States of America. Not everybody knows the Star Banner because they do not believe in our country. The question whether or not citizens should know the banner is a very controversial topic. Should the public be made to know of our countries song of honor? I believe that if they live in the United States then the person should at least have knowledge of what it stands for.
            This topic relates to the Pledge of Allegiance, people across America find the song demanding. Not all citizens believe in the same god and to have the name in the song means forcing to pledge under our god. Its unfortunate the country has this problem; but the people have the right to argue the pledge. I believe both songs are respected well, but should be taken into more thought on when it should be recited. At every main event the banner is sang in U.S arenas. Since it’s our country we have the right to sing it, but forcing everyone to stand up isn’t right.

Security

At times the world changes so rapidly that you don't even know what is happening. The truth is that a brutal "futuristic" police idea is growing up all around us, but most humans are unaware of the change. At our present day state security is cracking down on crime. Futuristic police will have an easier job of detecting criminal activity. Humans today are unaware of the importance of security force improvement. If there is more technology advancement with things like cars, crime will erupt.
The future should look to better the civilian life, look to protect, hopefully in the future there’s world peace, but of not smart police cars and training will protect society. What is highly questioned is what the job of futuristic policemen will be like; with so much new to take place police need to step up their duties, new laws should be enforced. I look to see humans abiding by the laws creating a empathetic society. The video above highlights the new improved police car of the future, its new functions assist cops on the road.

Living




When it comes to the idea of the future, communities will probably be intentionally designed so that humans will have a great amount of eco friendly space even in the most densely populated cities. Living today is at a livable standard but look for it to increase during the futuristic shift. Creatively houses will be made and shaped to produce solar powered life styles. It’s also safe to say houses could also be designed to help and aid human life. Sort of like a Smart house, this could benefit humans and provide friendly assistance. I also feel futuristic houses will all contain home security. This will lower the house invasion rate in society.

Living for the future is always depicted out throughout movies today, many wonder how life will be in the homes of the future. Details will be added to the house creating beneficial chances for humans. In our present day technology is used to help out humans. Once more ideas progress technology will produce easier living. What housing in the future will most likely interrupt is architects who design, you can infer that technology will design life later.

POEM

Futuristic
By Kestrel Quiambao
It's okay, it's alright
I can survive this endless strife
Living all this life with all the fight
A beginning, a start of a new life.

Sitting in a rock beside a green pepper plant
Everyday the sunlight strikes my skin
Breathing air and water as what I want
Jumping one feet high just to win.

It's okay, it's alright
I'll sow the seeds of the future
Painting the wall with black and white
For the beginning of a new culture

I don't suppose you know
That my life's not complete
I keep on searching, from high to low
And I don't suppose you can compete

 
  -This poem explains the blankness the future can bring, nobody has a clear idea on the way the future will be shaped. There are many different articles. Poems and media produced entertainment depicting the future. It's all useful because it’s based on many different ideas and feeling of our unknown future, the poem above shows the vision though the eyes of a girl with an open mind. Her use of relating the future to black and white gives you a feeling of unfamiliar thoughts about the future. Both colors stand for information.

I would say this poem could relate to how most humans feel; living life everyday creating a future for you is significant. The poem views life for the future as a growing idea in minds of those who live, her choice of using word choice like plant and seed supports that. The future should be revealed to everyone when the time comes. What the poem shows is how much time is taken to create positive ideas to a future where everything Is normal

Fahrenheit 451

In Fahrenheit451, being human meant you had no rights to the government, reading a book meant you were not following protocol. All citizens had to abide by the rules of the society, being different meant you were an outcast. The depiction of humans in this book contrast what humans actually do in present day. Today we can make our own choices without having to follow any dictated or judgmental rules forced by our government. Government today creates equal rights for people to do what they please as in the book your house was burned down.

The book forces the future to present the present as a time of more empathy then shown throughout the book. This means life today should be never over looked or taken advantage of, really because worst things can happen rather then what happens in the book. If the government took the freedom away our society would become fierce. Worldwide violence would spring out because of the change of living. The book shows how their society became formed into believing one thing.

Transformers


\
The movie Transformers is an alienated movie contrasting the sides of robots the Autobots and Decepticons. Both robots from worlds far beyond Earth fighting a war that landed on Earth. The autobots find themselves aided by the human military, while the decepticons look to destroy life on Earth as a whole. There motive was first to wipe out the autobots, but then became aware that in order for that to happen the humans need to go also.
It wasn’t until the character played by Shia Labeouf, came across a car; a car which he thought was normal started to act strange. Little did he know it was a autobot disguised, this is how our human involvement came about. The U.S NASA program became aware of their new intruders and began looking for Shia. This movie has a scientific twist depicting the way humans react when under attack by such a bigger, stronger and smarter force.
A wider look into the movie could broadcast a time where our present is much easier to live in then a future like Transformers. It is easy to tell what happens during the present , but our future is at a bigger disadvantage because the events are uncertain.



District 9


District 9 is a science fiction film based off previous films already broadcasted with the same principles. This South African thriller depicts a time period where aliens and science intertwine. Both sides are controlled by the government. Only later creates a disaster for civilians and the angry aliens. This problem was created when the large alien aircraft hovered motionless over the land. Once civilians got control they forced all the pawns to live in quarantine a confined area; secured by the multinational military. Humans are using technology to achieve greatness, but use human soldiers to form peace between the people.
The movie reflects life as it is today, some of the same tactics useable today are shown in the movie. It’s clear to say the movie depicts what happens when there are two different life forms living together. Both sides are equally curious about one another, and the human mind is given that ability. In the movie a couple of men wonder into territory in search of alien fluid. Transforming into one of the pawns the man is now living for the alienated species. This creates a problem for the man because his organs are worth bio-tech millions.
The purpose of this film is to show the bad tendencies humans create when money becomes the ultimate goal. Humans like to keep the power on their side, sometimes abusing it but technology also interest what the humans want. Throughout the movie they want to use alien weapons create a desire for alien life.

Jamming in the Future


What will the music be like ?

                It comes to a time where music will change up, generations kick out the old and invite the new. Not ever to be left in the past, but to be brought up later to mix in with the present. This happens in our present year 2012, although music has catawampously changed, we still peek into the 1990's or earlier then that to satisfy our music savvy minds. I question the future, what will kids in a society like now be living like? I could create a couple ideas for the years to come, the video above provides a glimpse into a robotic theme. Mostly because robots and technology are mixing now, I feel this could some how affect humans, mainly because we all have different types to listen to. I could predict awkward change in society because of the same music craving.

Transportation on a NEW level .


 -In this video, you will see the crazy transformation in cars of our future, with so much questions being asked only as time passes will you get more answers.

        As our future progresses, the amount of questioning for transportation picks up. Each day new ideas and creations are being sought through and developed. What this means for the life’s of humans, is faster transport time, but also means not many could afford the new high tech cars because of their prices. I predict the prices are going to be more expensive then you present day Bugatti automobiles. As pollution already affects the environment, new cars? What will they be ran on, would this help our new world or hurt it.

        This advancement in transportation will open up the doors to more change, because when cars start to fly, they will also start to cut through water. This most likely will create new laws and restrictions for public users. The future of cars taking off is what I wouldn’t and probably wont see in my lifetime but the idea of it seems very much possible. What I would like to see is futuristic cars shape and size change, also speed ,creating a car that goes at the speed of an airplane. Although it seems as dangerous, having a car that fast could be intense and unique.

Future Utensils

    -  (Positve) Digitally captures handwritten and audio notes. Sensitive microphone. Notes can be shared with popular online sites.

    -The Echo combines the flexibility of handwritten note taking with the intertwining of digital document management to make your notes more useful, and Livescribe Connect makes your notes easier to access and share.


The Apple store has recently released a new writing utensil called the Echo; this pen is like a glimpse into futuristic writing techniques. The pen has 8 components that create the smart functions needed to help out those using it. As technology advances aiding human’s life’s become easier, I would say the pen should be bought by college students who receive lectures in classes. Also one of the functions allows the pen to audio record, so taking notes is no longer a hassle. The overall effect of this pen is to make writing easier, the pen picks up all that you write no matter the neatness of your penmanship. The creation of this pen depicts the future as technology starts replacing methods making regular pens and pencils useless, because why write if you could audio record and take notes from invisible writing later to be translated on your computer. As of right now the pen is selling alright but as the sequels come out and new advancements get put on the pen it should be a better seller.
