Simulacrum in S1M0Ne Movie
What are the things people call real? What are the requirements of reality to make sense? These questions are in the category of:”You shouldn't have to ask that questions!” Why on earth asking these type of questions instead of relying common sense anyway? Common sense is learned habit for humanity through the ages that makes us feel relieved because of the security blanket of us called: “I cannot be the only one who believes this!” I call it “chaotic simplicity”. It is chaotic because learned behaviors take time to depend on like; religion. People once had to break their traditional habits to adapt new ones, a new God. It is simple because people pathetically need to believe. It is best option to follow in order to get answers of incomprehensible systems. It is as simple as Maslow's hierarchy of human nature: need belonging and get acceptance from others. As my favorite quotation of Matrix suggested: “Ignorance is bliss.” So not questioning is our business. French theorist Baudrillard have suggested; our so called real world consist of the imitations and simulations that reflect reality that humanity rely on. Ironically, I learned the ideas of him in the simulation version of his original work. The theory is impressively roaring because of the miniature copy that I rely on to support my ideas may even derived from some kind of artificial fact. So here comes another question: “Does reality create artificial intelligence or other way around?” The movie S1m0ne is about interpretation of perfection for people. In the movie, Al Pacino created a computer program called S1m0ne and he tried hard to make Simone flawless and he succeeded it because all the people sooner or later became a huge fan of the new celebrity Simone without seeing her. The absence of physical appearance of Simone, doesn't effect her fans because they admire her as a role model and sarcastically call her magnificent and absolutely unreal, she is not of this Earth. The illusion of perfection

    Abrose Bierce created a work of literature “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” a short story that takes place during the Civil War. Farquhar the protagonist in this short story is being hanged. ““The commandant has issued an order, which is posted everywhere, declaring that any civilian caught interfering with the railroads, its bridges, tunnels, or trains, will be summarily hanged”(Bierce 770). Farquhar arrogance contributed to his death. He saw the signs that told him to not tamper with any traveling path or die. His disregard for the rule caused his untimely death and the flashbacks in his life before the incident.…

    Before commencing the actual experiment, the lab instructor first went over the basic rules on how a one should operate a simulator. The first exercise that we started off with was to suspend the drill bit slightly above the bottom of the hole, while allowing the drilling fluid to slowly circulate using the desired parameters. Each group member assumed one of three responsibilities, driller, choke operator, or BOP operator.…

    Response to Bell Hooks

    • 5 Pages

    In the article “Justice: Childhood Love Lessons” bell hooks claims that “there is nothing that creates more confusion about love in the minds and hearts of children than unkind or cruel punishment” (hooks 27). In other words punishment of any kind, let it be pinching, flicking or spanking will result in disorientation in a child’s mind. This statement is true to some people, false to others, but overall hooks tends to be bias in her argument. She doesn’t explore the different variations of physical punishment and how these punishments affect the child’s thought about love. There are many different types of punishment out there in this cruel world, but not all of them can disorientate a child’s mind or heart about love.…

    The first law of thermodynamics states that the energy of the universe is constant. Heat is transferred when the atoms of one material vibrate and collide with the atoms of another material, thus transferring energy. For this reason, heats always travel from hot to cold objects and two objects will reach an equilibrium temperature.…

    In life we tend to avoid the hard and difficult questions that no one has an answer to. For example who is God? Where did he come from? Does God really care about us? Who is man? And what is truth?? We can spend countless hours and millions on research to try and find out the answer to these simple yet profound questions yet we would never get anywhere close to the answer. If we knew everything we wanted there would be no desire to learn about God because we already “know” everything.…

    Along with the characters in the movie, the writers, producers, and directors are the ones who created this deception. The Matrix, which is the “fake reality”, is created through the minds of the characters by the means of technology. The advancement in technology that the movie portrays is the basis behind the “artificial reality.” I believe, after viewing the movie, the main characters figure out the difference between fact and fiction by simply going through the metamorphous of the real world and the matrix. I feel that the reality of this movie is the possibility that the future of the humans may indeed involve a conflict with machines, artificial intelligence, and/or the entire cyber…

    What is prime reality, or in other words, what is truly real? Many people ask this question on a daily basis, without having a true sense of the question they are asking themselves. What is prime reality? There are two sides or more sides to every argument, and the question of prime reality is no different. Asking this question raises a couple other questions as well. Those are “What is external reality?” and “What is my purpose?” Naturalists and Christian Theists propose opposite claims to these questions, but who is really right? I believe that God and his creation are prime reality and also explain what external reality and the purpose of living are. To not look at both sides of an argument would create an incomplete, and possibly uneducated, answer to very important questions.…

    What is meant by reality? It would seem to be something very erratic, very undependable-now to be found in a dusty road, now in a scrap of newspaper in the street, now in a daffodil in the sun. It lights up a group in a room and stamps some causal saying. It overwhelms one walking home beneath the stars and makes the silent world more real than the world of speech-and then there it is again in an omnibus in the uproar of Piccadilly.…

    Humans have since the very earliest time of their existence questioned various fundamental facts about their existence and the world around them. They have tried to answer the mysteries of life such as how they came into existence and what happens after their death. These questions they discovered could be only answered through religion and science. Religion went about explaining that all things were there because of some greater spiritual being which brought everything and everyone into existence. Religion especially during ancient times put God as the master creator of all things and beings, having created men on all other creations.…

    Some people will tend to disagree that matter is the only real thing. For example, is this piece of paper real? If it is not real then how are you reading the words on it right now? Yes you could say that paper is made out of wood pulp and water, which is made out of stuff which is made out of more stuff and keep going with that until you get down to matter. But in reality, this piece of paper in fact is real. Yes it is made up of matter, but it is still real by itself.…

    What is Reality

    What is reality? In my mind, reality is defined by the individual. It is not a single, or whole entity that is the same for everyone. What this implies is that each person has control over their own reality. It varies from person to person but also intertwines. Individual realities can interact with each other which add up and ultimately create other joint realities until an intricate “web” of realities is made that represents the world.…
