Imagine the Future

CHRISTIAN DIOR          Born in 1905 in France and passed in Italy in 1957. He was an iconic French designer who reintroduced femininity after the war. He turned focus to focus on luxury to women's fashion. After graduation, Dior opened a small art gallery that handled the works of Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso. After the gallery closed, he made ends meet by selling his fashion sketches. However, some years later he had to serve as in officer in the French army when World War II started. When he returned he was hired by courturier Lucien Lelong. Lenlong's design house would dress the women of both Nazis and French collaborators. He then found the house of Christian Dior on December 16, 1946. Dior considers 1947 to be year of conception as that is when he showed his first collection. His collection was a "new look". The look consisted of calf-length, full skirt, cinched waist and fuller bust. In 1948 he established a luxury ready-to-wear house on the corner of 5th A

 While video games are not really my thing, Ready Player 1 really put them into a new perspective which was interesting. And the difference in how people are online versus in reality is slightly scary. Based on all the presentations, my groups included, it was clear people feel comfortable online therefore express themselves how they want to. Although sad reality and society stops people from expressing who they want to be because of stereotypes and stigmas, there is some relief that video games is an escape for people. It was interesting to see some people who were playing were males, but played as a female. The females especially in Destiny 2 were given power and were favored over the male characters which is major change considering video games are mostly for men. Overall, this assignment was very eye opening about severely stereotypes affect our society. 

Ghost in the Shell was one of my least favorite films to watch thus far. While the animation for the time is incredible, anime just might not be for me. The storyline was relatively difficult to follow and I had a hard time staying engaged. This could just be one of those personal preference movies I have a preferance against. Also, writing the paper to relates Issac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics was challenging possibly because the storyline was difficult to follow. However, it is interesting to think about whether Asimov's laws can be applied to hybrids (part human, part robot).  Isaac Asimov’s “Three Laws of Robotics” 1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws The Bicentennial Man https

StarTrek once definitely one of my more favorite movies to watch, but I had no idea it had such an impact on the world today. Looking through a futuristic lens, there are so many futuristic technologies of the time and even today. Inspiration should continue to be taken from StarTrek not just in the nursing field, but all other disciplines as well. One thing however I did note was the apparent stereotypical role of women tried to break the mold. For Uhura, the mold exploded, but for the role of nurses and women in healthcare not so much. Women were given the role as nurses which are subservient to doctors. In today's world, while women can now also be doctors, it is still predominantly a male's role. In some of the more recent remakes or spinoffs of StarTrek we do begin to see an increase in appreciation for nurses and invaluable work they do alongside doctors. In one of the most recent, Strange New Worlds, I believe some referred to Nurse Chapel as doctor, which is the beginni
