Camera

A camera is a device used to take pictures, either alone or in sequence, with or without sound, such as with video cameras. The name is consequent from camera obscura, Latin for "dark chamber", an early mechanism for projecting images in which an whole room functioned much as the internal workings of a modern photographic camera, except there was no way at this time to record the image little of manually tracing it. Cameras may work with the visual spectrum or other portions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Every camera consists of some kind of enclosed chamber, with an opening or aperture at one end for light to enter, and a recording or viewing surface for capturing the light at the other end. This diameter of the aperture is often controlled by an diaphragm mechanism, but some cameras have a fixed-size opening.

Video and digital cameras use electronics, usually a charge coupled device or sometimes a CMOS sensor to detain images which can be transferred or stored in tape or computer memory within the camera for later playback or processing.Traditional cameras capture light onto photographic film or photographic plate.

A video camera is a group of movie camera which stores images onto magnetic tape.Cameras that capture many images in sequence are known as movie cameras or as ciné cameras in Europe; those designed for distinct images are still cameras. However these categories overlap, as still cameras are often used to capture moving images in special belongings work and modern digital cameras are often able to trivially switch between still and motion recording modes.

A Brave New Audience

It always feeds people information with which they take in without even significant its perils. What they think is an admirable source of information, is actually a hazardous medium through which millions of Americans reduce their intelligence. According to Neil Postman, it is simply just a damage of content because it focuses more on descriptions, rather than content.
In Postman's essay, The Huxleyan Warning, he exhorts readers that Huxley's prophecies are launch to be realized. He claims that society will enchain themselves through their love for their own oppression; the technologies that disable their abilities to think. This technology comes through the shape of a television screen. These prophecies, which were first introduced to us by Aldous Huxley, are observable in the movie The Truman Show. Truman is a normal human being, accidentally being watched by billions of viewers ever since his birth. Viewers are stuck to their television sets watching his every move.

As mentioned above, love, turns out to be the most satisfying of all approach to transcend limits of individual life. All forms of orgiastic unions are powerful and even violent; they are temporary and periodical. It is a union in which the individual self disappears to a large extent and where the aim is to belong to the group. There is orgiastic state, which may have the form of sexual orgasm, alcohol, drugs and etc. Regrettably, equality today means sameness, rather that oneness. Orgiastic unions result in a growing sense of separateness. People try to be equal by performing tasks and feelings agreed by the system and trying to follow the same rules, the same model of life from the age three or four. Union by conformity is calm and it is permanent.
