CUT-UPS, video

The relation that I think the cut - up and the video with the post modern "style" can be seen by taking into account that there are no linear structures. The video and the text show how a person manipulates two different sources and create one together, which may represent one of many points of view that people have from one single situacion; but nevertheless it is important no to forget that this also shows the concept "rhizome".

Inception

I chose the movie Inception, due to my fascination when I saw it. The role of memory in tgis movie is very important because it determines the dream´s "reality" inside the one they work. For proving this, is important to remember the part in which Leonaro Di´caprio shows Ellen Philpotts that they are inside her mind and that her memories are going to provide the space and materials they work with. Also it is important to recognize how Leonardo´s mind contributes with people from his subconcious.

I think that the most important fact is to be able to realize that dreams are not limitless. There limit is to wake up and continue in reality
