The camera as an empowerment tool

My favorite piece of technology is my camera.

I liked because I can capture moments in a second, I can capture the past and see it again as many times as I want, I can also make visible situations that I consider important, in that sense it can serve as a tool empowerment of minorities and people who suffer violence to give them dignity through the resignification and photographic reconstruction of all those groups.


Besides, the camera, when capturing moments and leaving them retained in time, allows them not to be forgotten. But the camera isn’t who takes the pictures or who filming the scene. It’s the photographer who does it, that is why it’s important to have a point of view that allows this empowerment and fight against violence. So it’s important to know that this piece of technology it’s a double-edged sword.

    I agree with everything you're saying. I think the camera it's a great instrument to show anything you want to depending on your point of view, which makes it very interesting.

    I really like your idea, besides that the camera can portray moments and show different visions of the same thing.

Joey Tribbiani from Friends

Friends is a sitcom about six friends who live in New York. They always meet in the Central Perk cafe or in the Monica's house. My favorite male character of this sitcom is Joey, but I have realized with time that he has many macho attitudes. Joey Tribbiani is a young man of italian origin, he is the only guy in a family with 8 children where seven are girls. He lives with his roommate, Chandler Bing, in his appartment. He dedicated to acting in theater plays until he become famous when playing "Doctor Drake Ramoray" in "Days of our lives". This character represents the typical womanizer man that his only purpose is sleep with many women without any affective responsibility. Every night, he sleeps with a different woman. Besides, he sees women as sexual objects, and always talks about the size of her breasts and her bodys in general. Joey loves food, specially sandwiches, and proper to his personality, he includes women in their concept of food, when in cha...
