Art Thoughtz: catch a millennial

In this video, Hennessy Youngman is talking to a crowd in Chicago about how to keep up with this generation that is so into technology. He uses satire when he talks about this generation by making fun of them in a half serious/half joking manor, pointing out how things to them only are real if it is posted in facebook. He uses the example of how one decides whether their relationship is real or not based on whether it's written down somewhere on their facebook page. As bad as it sounds that is the fabric of the society that we live in. Seeming so fickle in nature, the way we feel or treat someone is can solely depend on what they are posted as in our lives. He also speaks about the implementation of more interactive pieces in museums that would cater and attract these millenials since they are so absorbed with the idea of technology. Even as he makes joking remarks while delivering this idea, he is absolutely right. The more people feel involved the more likely they are to do something. All in all watching this video was surprisingly eye opening and refreshing, seeing that he was very intellectual but very relatable.
