I feel disappointed I couldn’t stay longer for Steve Dietz lecture because I had a class to attend after our original time of our class. However, during the time I was there for the lecture of Steve Dietz, he talks about altering and how different artists use different method or technique to alter “unscripting the political process.” For example, The Billionaires for Bush “No You Can’t” shows how the multimedia and artists can manipulate the original video of “Yes We Can” and show it to the people. “Billionaires for Bush is a do-it-yourself grassroots media campaign using humor and street theater to expose politicians who support corporate interests at the expense of everyday Americans.”This video shows how billionaires for bush wants to stay alive and continue to run the same political system; helping the rich people and not care about the world and bringing a better future for America. According to the website http://billionairesforbush.com/index.php it is said, “If you prefer more of the same, please stick with the Grand Ol' Party. If you want hope and change, there's that other guy running for president...” the guy from the original video of “Yes We Can.” Alteration became so easy these days and almost every ordinary person today can do it. Technology and multimedia also became more accusable and valuable existence these days. From my perspective, it is really good to have this type of system available for the people to make a good choice not only for the political reason but as well as for personal reason.
