Design is Dangerous

                Ever thought if design is ever dangerous? There are dangers in almost everything. The computer cause radiation, small toys are choking hazards, guns are design to protect but are dangerous, and etc… One design that is the most dangerous of all is the Atomic Bomb or bomb in general. Of course they are used in wars and battles, but as a way of fighting off the enemies. But the Atomic Bomb is not an exception. It is simply inhumane, it can kill many innocent civilians that had probably never committed a sin before, as innocent as a child or a baby. It is made of atoms compress together to create a powerful force when it is release, and when it hit its target, it releases radiations all over a certain radius of a location, obliterating everything within its range. 

                It can be use as a threat to other countries and who ever obtain this bomb will become the world power. But if other countries start having this kinds of bomb, no one in this world is safe. Atomic Bombs will destroy everything and everyone, simply ending mankind on earth or ending the world itself. This kind of design should be thought out carefully, such as the consequences, and how it affects the world before it was utilize. When this design was use, it was already too late to call it back; thousands of innocent people lose their lives. 

Design in Society

What is the main product and the most popular in the world? The computer is the most wanted item in society.  Why? It is because it makes tasks more efficient and convenient. This is product was design to makes the lives of everyone easier. It can organize, keep data, help with other designs and etc… Without the computer, many other products in the world would be design by hand and made buy hand. There will be factories all over the world in every city and every town. But because of computers, there are no needs for so many factories around the world. 

Not only does it help with factories but also students. Without the computer students would spend lots of time hand writing essays, writing down notes and have limited resources. It’s efficient and helps saves some time for students who are busy. For example, if they are in sports or clubs and have no time to go to the library to look for references and information for their school work, then they can turn to a computer and start their research there. They don’t have to rely on type writers, which if there is a mistake they either have to start over or erase it with whiteout. But on a computer and word processing students can simply delete and erase with ease, making easy corrections. 

Color Transform

                Many things or designs are better left as black or white. But sometimes adding some color brings out the characteristics and make the design livelier. Take movies and films as an example. If the movie or film is in black and white then it portray originality and classics. But if the film is in color it makes the whole film livelier than it was before. It catches the viewers’ attention and letting them notice the surroundings more from a color film than a black and white film. In a black and white film, the audience focuses more on the characters and the storyline instead of the setting of the story. In a colored film, the audiences are able to experience the colorful environment instead of complete contrast of black and white. 

The photos above are an example. The wizard of Oz is a classic movie in black and white. Of course it is an enjoyable movie, but once it is transform from black and white to color, it portray the beauty of Dorothy’s dreamland. When the golden path is describe, viewers can actually see the bright yellow color of the path instead of the washout white color path in the black and white film. The green, castle, Dorothy’s companion, and the whole surroundings come to life with more color added.
