This is my environmental art project. Its a biodegradable tissue box with a little metal man dropped inside the box (the television set). He is trapped inside and can't go out and play because his brain is ensnared by the droning voice on the TV. This is a very common ocurence with youth today.

Hey Becky who's that guy?

My name is Zach Williams and I was born and raised in Burlington, VT. Over the vacation I worked a lot and skied however there was a few media experiences that stuck out. My most interesting one was downloading a DJ program to my friends iphone which allowed us to play around with different sounds while our music was playing. This technology is yet another step in the stairs of technological advancement and is part of the competitive drive to create newer, faster, and better media tools. I like this drive a lot however at the same time it is incredibly problematic the old style of social interaction. With the advancing of media technology down goes the level of social interaction which is a fundamental part of life. I love the outdoors and although could see myself working in media my ambition is to work in the mountains either in ski area management or for park services or another organization of that nature. Helping save the forest one species at a time sounds pretty good to me.
