POMO essay plan

"Postmodern media manipulate time and space." To what extent does this definition apply to the texts you have studied?


POMO REJECTS ALL ABSOLUTES (THE TRUTH)


Topic- Pomo
viewpoint - manipulate time and space
Instruct  - To what extent (yes or no)
Aspect - apply to the texts you have studied


Topic:
Postmodernism is the rejection of modernism. Modernism offered truth, improvement, hierarchy and order.
Grand narratives rejected
Industrialisation created the possibility for pop to exist, because everything became identical.
Loss of identity - simulacrum


Viewpoint - Time = linear measurement
                    Space = an area or position in relation to something else


Remix
Bricolage
Homage
Pastiche


Instruct - Yes or No? Yes. Pomo changes everything because it allows artists to flourish and take ideas from others but the problem is we don't know what's real and what's not. Eventually no new music/film will be produced because snippets will be taken from other things.


We don't know what's real - holograms  and hyper reality - Tupac/Michael Jackson/Elvis Presley.
