My Revision Piece

Pop culture is what is the most common interest in society. It is the cool car all people should own. It’s the new style of hair all the ladies should rock. It's the new kind of sound that is bumping through the speakers of all the cars. Pop culture is the reflection of what the society's desires are. Just like tradition pop culture evolves with the generation that it is with. Like for example each decade is given its own pop culture and whenever someone talks about that certain decade, we always seem to categorize certain things with it. Like with the 70's we seem to think about hippies, long blonde hair on guys, and funk music. I believe in the future the pop culture will reflect what is current with that time. If we decide to go green and find alternative fuel sources, we might have a green pop culture in which everybody decides to be on the green side and I believe the music and the fashion will reflect it eventually. Pop culture is what we think of when try to categorize many things in out a summation and try to fit it in a category that is easily understandable. Like for example if we were to look at the decade we have had so far in the decade 200-2010, many ideas can come to mind. We can start out by talking about how we were scared of the Y2K scares and how we started the whole decade in a bang. Then after that there was an explosion of rap music that expanded throughout the country and made the rap stars that were there lots of money. One of the prime examples of this theory was the rapper Kanye West. In the mid 2000’s he had his CD College Dropout that went platinum and made him a lot of money because of it. By the end of the decade he was one of the best musicians and will be looked at as a prime example of what the decade stood for.

Like with the 70's we seem to think about hippies, long blonde hair on guys, and funk music. I believe in the future the pop culture will reflect what is current with that time. In the essay, “This is How we Live”, by Ellen DeGeneres, she writes how technology makes people lazy.  “Modern life requires hardly any physical activity.  We just push a button and stand there.”(638). I feel like our generation that was raised in this decade will not only be considered lazy, we will also considered technologically dependent and a lot less humane than the generations before us. If we decide to go green and find alternative fuel sources, we might have a green pop culture in which everybody decides to be on the green side and I believe the music and the fashion will reflect it eventually. But if we were to look at it in the opposite side of the spectrum, we can see that humans can be a lot less green and we can be more dependent on machines to do our jobs. If we were to go through that route, we all would look like the humans that were depicted in the movie Wall-E. In this movie it depicts humans of just moving on a bed that carries them everywhere without them even wanting to move. Everybody wears the same clothes that can change by a push of a button, and everyone is large and overweight. The pop culture like that would be quite dry and far from the disco, and hippies of the 70’s.
