technology overload


With this montage, I wanted to bring in the theme of our world becoming dependent on technology, instead of books and text. To portray this, I photographed the main scene of the books to bring a dominant feeling of the importance of books. The faint images of the computer, computer mouse, and cell phone all mock the literature in the background, giving a feeling that the technology is "taking over." I chose to incorporate the dictionary terms of "technology" and "information" not only to add emphasis to the picture itself, but to the meaning as well. The strong colors of the books gives the montage a strong belief in the literature system and its importance to the world for learning.

I like that you used scanned in dictionary images for this montage. Also, I think the focus for the background image is too soft and too warm
