A Lil Introduction 

by Chanara L. Smith-Rookes

      Trying to get your footing into a new school, make new friends, figure out if you like or hate your new roommate because you just sense that they are gonna get on your nerves because the never put the top back on the toothpaste. With all these distractions, the least you are worried about is how well you are gonna fit in your class. You are here to get your education and work on your future career.
      As it turns out, picking the right classes are critical to your ability to succeed in a subject. What is the point in sitting in an hour and fifty minute lecture if the whole time it sounds like a completely different language because you know nothing of the topic nor do you particularly like it. Its serious enough to start looking for replacement classes before the first thirty minutes since class started.
     The title 'Art and Technology' is enticing as it is because everything these days revolve around technology and creating more ways and opportunities for artists to showcase their creativity with different methods and techniques. Learning how advanced technology has progressed, the creations humans have come up with and the opportunities to express and develop thoughts and images through technology is incredible.
     Being from Bermuda, the cultural difference and the advancement in basic structures makes it easier to appreciate the simplicity of art and self-operated objects. Technology is slowly being trickled down into Bermuda and still there are some who prefer and sketch pad and pencil over tablet and stylus. Dabbled in  music, drawing, film production, writing, poetry, its almost hard to find the exact outlet that expresses and reflects the proper wording and meaning to come across as.
      Now, being exposed to greater and far more advanced programing with a broader spectrum of artists, the likely hood of finding the perfect outlet and a better understanding of the arts, period, are what needs to be on the lookout for.
