As soon as I got through he first two pages of the ‘Culture and Technology’ reading and immediately was like, yes, this is interesting, this is going to been a good reading. “…not so interested in how things work technologically, as how they work culturally.” Now that’s always fun to discuss. I like the description of technology as ‘the application of science to production,’ as it really sums it up well. We discover new things and require new things, and design new things, then produce them in new was to create new technologies.

As i progress further into the reading, it is beginning to sound a lot like a reading from ‘communication histories and technologies;’ another subject i am doing at the moment. Particularly what we were discussing in the first few weeks of semester, regarding the difference between techniques and technology, and their relationship to each other. I found it particularly interesting reading about how people interpret the word ‘culture.’ Because cultures can be small, large, based on any demographic collection, and some consider fine arts to be culture, but others consider aspects of working class living culture as well. People use the word culture to describe so many different things, so it is difficult to talk about culture as a thing, we must accept that culture is dynamic and broad.
