Introduction of the course and the Black mirror 

"The Entire History of You"

There was an introduction about the course, which included the description and the syllabus. After the intro, Dr. McMullen showed us the one of the episodes of the Black mirror series. I guess she wanted to give students some ideas about technology’s role in the society. People have improved technology expecting a bright future, yet still they face to many difficulties. In the episode, people wanted to check on their memories like watching a movie for several reasons. One reason that they want to use the device - a grain- is save the perfect memory and show one that can’t be convinced by the brain’s ability. In my opinion, the memory is very important and unique, because it defines the person’s identity and also, reverses the time in the present. When the memory turns to the fact through the device, there is no space for connection to people’s imagination or emotion. Memory provides the power that people can be a human being. People can’t live only the facts. This is the limit when people rely on technology entirely.
