Inbox - Utopian or Dystopian? Jeremy

Inbox, dystopia
We loved the
quirkiness of this short film, and the original way it deals with
contemporary social exchanges. How do you think it might suggest utopian or
dystopian ideas about the nature of communication in a mediated world? What
kind of educational debates can we draw associations with here?

I loved the happy ending of “Inbox”, but it make me
wonder why it`s so difficult to connect with people we met in the traditional
ways? Why are we so defensive to human contact? I think face to face
communication is overloaded with prejudices. The acquired look and image
patterns we learned and interiorize since childhood makes us” tag” people
before even know them. Virtual communication eliminates this prejudice and
lets us perceive other values and charms that we usually don`t dig to find if
we don`t like the package.
