Part 1 Reading Quiz 2

The goal of all forms of media is to be efficient and helpful. As technology advances, constant remediation occurs to outdo the latest writing space. The competition to create a more useful form of media is what keeps the world moving forward. Examples of this are the constant refashioning of game systems. There is a new game system introduced at least once a year; whether it be a remodel of one that was already introduced, such as Playstation's one, two and three or an entirely new system; the circumstance when the Wii came out. Each system that is marketed serves the same general purpose: entertainment through video games but they all function in different ways; with varying graphics, controllers, games, and physical appearance. The production of new game systems will never cease to occur because humans like to advance and do not stay satisfied with one option; as with any other aspect of life. It is not necessary to keep advancing for survival and it could be argued that no more technological advances should be made because the world will become a very superficial place with no ties left to nature. However, this argument would never be accepted and followed because it is within the will of humans to try and better their lives and surroundings; giving them something to live for. If humans were to be completely content with every aspect of their life and not yearn for any remediation, there would be no will to live.
