A Brave New Audience

Over time, technology has become extremely developed. This is unpleasant for mankind because the more superior, the more serious television gets, the not as good as it is for its viewers. It always feeds people in sequence with which they take in without even important its perils. What they think is an admirable source of information, is actually a dangerous medium through which millions of Americans decrease their intelligence.

According to Neil Postman, it is basically just a damage of content because it focuses more on descriptions, rather than content. In Postman's essay, The Huxleyan Warning, he exhorts readers that Huxley's prophecy is launch to be realized. He claims that society will enslave themselves through their love for their own oppression; the technologies that disable their ability to think. This technology comes during the shape of a television screen. These prophecies, which were first introduce to us by Aldous Huxley, are observable in the movie The Truman Show. Truman is a normal human being, inadvertently being watched by billions of viewers ever since his birth. Viewers are caught to their television sets watching his every move.

Utility of art

One of the defining personalities of fine art as opposite to applied art is the absence of any clear useful value. But this obligation is sometimes criticize as being a class prejudice against labor and utility. Opponents of the view that art cannot be useful, argue that all human activity has some efficient function, and the objects claimed to be "non-utilitarian" actually have the function of attempting to confuse and codify flawed social hierarchies. It is also sometimes argued that even apparently non-useful art is not useless, but rather that its use is the effect it has on the psyche of the creator or viewer.
Art is also used by art therapists, psychotherapists and medical psychologists as art therapy. Art can also be used for qualities Test. The end product is not the principal goal in this case; somewhat a process of healing, through creative acts, is sought. The resultant piece of artwork may also offer insight into the difficult experienced by the subject and may propose suitable approaches to be used in more conservative forms of psychiatric therapy.

General Aviation

General aviation includes any flight that is not armed and does not fly on a regular schedule, ranging from a leisure flight in a hang glider to a non-scheduled cargo flight in a Boeing 747. The greater part of flights on any day will fall into this category.Because of the huge range of activities, it is difficult to cover general aviation with a simple description — general aviation may contain business flights, private aviation, flight training, ballooning, parachuting, gliding, hang gliding, aerial photography, foot-launched powered hang gliders, air ambulance, crop dusting, charter flights, traffic coverage, police air patrols, forest fire flighting, and many other types of flying.

Each country regulate aviation in a different way, but typically, general aviation falls under several different types of system depending on whether it is private or commercial and on the type of equipment involved.Many small aircraft manufacturers, as well as Cessna, Piper, Diamond, Mooney, Cirrus Design, Raytheon, and others serve the general aviation market, with a focus on private aviation and flight training.
