New Ways of Creativity in my Generation

I believe that my teen subculture is very technology based. Practically everyone I know has a facebook or myspace, cell phone, iPod, etc. It seems to me that a lot of my generation has technological gadgets and uses them for entertainment. It seems to me that because of this there is lots more ways of expressing a person’s creativity. Youtube is an excellent example, the whole site is made up of people posting homemade videos or videos compiled of different shows, It definitely shows that my generation is more creative and expressive through their artwork. Also, because technology has allowed for cheaper production it seems that mp3s and cameras are more accessible, so they are common now, whereas they used to be very rare. This also adds to my generation’s creativity because the availability to take pictures and incorporate interesting things into our lives.

That's a really good point. I completely agree that our dependence on technology is unique to our culture and has allowed us to be more creative. I didn't think about that before.
