The primary thesis of “Computer Graphics: Effects of Origins” which was written by Beverly Jones is about the importance, influence and the development of technology. More specifically, Jones clarified the technology influence our lives and plays a key role in our culture and art. She explained that the technology changes people’s lives, and actually people invent, develop and change technology.
The historical example is about Mercedes Benz Corporation. “This perspective is analogous to early market predictions of the Mercedes Benz Corporation, which limited the number of potential automobile sales to the very low number of trained chauffeurs then available” (Page 21).Before it, many people doubt that the microcomputer could be used to make the prediction. This example explained that people do not think the technology in the old days which may increase their business. However, actually the technology, the computer do influence people’s life and more importantly, help people a lot in the real world with different objects, images, etc.
There are a lot of examples that can support Jones’ thesis. Technology has influenced in many field for people’s lives, such as healthcare. The author Alyson Krueger says, “In a 2004 survey of 8 million seniors who use the internet, only 66% said they searched healthcare information online. In 2009 24 million Americans reported the same.” It can easily see that with the development of technology (internet), it makes life more convenient than before. Another thing is that there are many electronic devices in medical field which can help patient do more and better treatment but less suffering. The doctors can find patients’ medical record only by typing some words on computers, it can save more time and keep the records for a long time. Right now, there are many medical organization are doing research for different diseases. The technology helps a lot in graphing and prediction for the tendency.
Technology plays key role in people’s life now and it can be more helpful in the future. It not only influence in business, but also in many other fields, like medical field, education, etc. I believe, technology would make life easier and more convenient in the future.
