Trend Analysis - II (Group III)


TREND ANALYSIS - II (group III)


This is an analysis of the following trends :
  • Well - Being
  • Art meets Technology


WELL - BEING
'Well-Being' can be classified into the following categories :






  • We have our physical well-being in the top of our priority list and have paid no attention to our spiritual well-being so far. We have employed technology to take care of our physical needs and comforts, we have the world at our feet but we still feel something missing deep inside us, but we don't know what it is. As we keep on pampering our selves the uneasiness inside us keeps increasing and technology fails to do something about it.
In reference to the visual above, we should start from within rather from the outside, if things are all right from within the rest will be fine.





ART MEETS TECHNOLOGY


The present scenario :
  • It has made our tools better
  • Has amplified our senses
  • Helped us to express faster
  • Improved materialistic quality
The scope :
  • Things haven't changed much except - quality, speed and new- techniques.
New paradigm :




  • The present interaction of art and technology is very superfluous. Technology has given us better means but no motive. It has made our thinking linear which is killing our creativity. The heart of art lies in the subconscious and the unconscious of the human mind, where technology still haven't been able to reach. It is here that technology can make a significant contribution and prove its worth.
