Deus ex machina

Dun dun dun dun du du dun! Deus ex machina!!! 3 examples of Deus ex machina. 1. Futurama - In the episode Godfellas, Bender is floating in space and suddenly he runs into God and God is able to fling him back to earth to meet back with his friends. 2. Revenge of The Fallen, Transformers - Sam at the end of the movie is killed and instead of him dying it is an epiphany like experience where he travels to heaven to be told he is the savior of the Autobots, but really Sam has died while medics are working on him and he suddenly comes back to life. 3. The Simpsons Movie - Homer is lost in the middle of the Canadian forest and is going to die until he passes out and is found by a monk performing a special ritual on him hat wakes him up and allows him to wonder back to safety.

-> Paul Cuero <-

CREATIVITY!!!!

 I found everything he had to say very interesting. To think that creativity is more than stimulation of your imagination blows my mind. I think that if I change my out look on life and focus on the little things and interact with everything differently, a new world will open up for me to explore. Most people limit themselves and as Cuero shows he was able to over come poverty and live his life very well. I think he sets a good example for people to follow and how he looked at everything with an open, creative mind and that helped him pursue his dreams.

Juan Carlos Delgado

Why is this multimedia?
 Multimedia can be a mix of many different things but for Delgado he chooses to have his pieces interact with the environment. Instead of having direct contact with a physical force his piece freezes and unfreeze as it reacts with the moister in the room. That interaction with the environment makes it a multimedia piece of art.
