# Socialmedia, a review ingenious use of our social networks

Do any of you have checked your facebook wall while having sex? Above It seems that the French artist and staunch critic of social networking itself has. It is curious his latest creation titled # socialmedia, since this is a video time-lapse where the guy he paints over and over a wall, reflecting messages about our use of social networks and how we stun , isolated and all those things that are "cool and original" critique.

The irony is that the format of your video is totally viral, and of course, its most fertile land to spread are social networks, so I'm confused, do not know if the artist himself is biting his tongue with his speech or wave is that part of his claim.

The truth is that the video he was very cute and I had to take hours, far more than a person normally spends reviewing your facebook or twitter. In fact in the video description claims that the guy filming took five days of work and more than 9000 frames. Is your idea a waste of time? I do not know, but according to the lengthy statement accompanying its new production, Above really trying to tell us something:

"People look at me like it was from another planet when I tell them I'm not in any social networks like Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. In the eyes of social media I'm pretty much out of time, lost and unconnected.

No part of social networks make me a stranger that looks like used their sacred society networks, and I can not help but notice that the people around me seems to be consumed and become addicted trying to keep up with them.

You check your facebook while driving your car, you send a tweet telling you're taking a shower, get on Instagram a photo of your Starbuck coffee and so on to infinity ... "

One thing is clear. The artist is half Emo and his proposal before I sympathized more hyperbolic know the position of the author.
