The Biased side of Jean Baudrillard

Jean Baudrillard’s book Simulacra and Simulations describes a world in which materialist cultures destroy what is real. The Simulacra is a system of people who purposely surround themselves in hyper reality or “the simulation of something which never really existed.”

People use the movie ‘matrix’ to do an example on it. The whole sequence on real and un-real. The truth being define and un-told. The Matrix develop the idea that the apparently real is nothing more than a simulation.

So, we juggle between the stable idea of reality. Is it real or matrix? I was flipping through endless researches and the ‘matrix’ word kept coming out. I guess no harm in peeping on it.

The funny thing was I realised how much I love/hate that movie. You can’t blame people for saying that love and hate, they’re just a mere thin line next to one another.

The more I read ones’ essay the more I got blurred. The culture differences that wave the lines between facts and surreal, between information and entertainment, and of course through propaganda, it involves the politics.

The public gets the influence by these Simulations and Simulacra which led them to get involve with the activities that these ‘vibes’ are releasing.

P/S: i wanted to add a few more lines to scold my lecturer. but then, i had some warnings from friends. So, i better be nice.
