Re/Revolution



This is a trailer for my research project in a Mediated Cultures class Anth522. I would like to thank Al Jazeera for the Creative Commons video. I would also like to thank Tryad for the music titled Alone.

I have been watching videos online about the revolution within Egypt. The video that I constructed is an attempt to create a conversation starter for how new media has Re/mediated Revolution. This video is a proposal and it contemplates the questions:
  • What do we touch with mouse buttons?
  • Within the interwebs, What ripples are created by a link?

The world is in constant flux, and our new media awareness resolves the ripples. Yet every ripple we try to change... another begins
