These sets of readings offered an interesting approach to the notion of spectacle and its relationship to daily life. I found in Debord’s “Society of the spectacle”, his interpretation of spectacle is often accurate to what I see in society. Spectacle is used as a driving member to an illusion of everyday life. Society easily advertises so much and puts on a front that we lose a sense of ownership. “Judging a book by its cover” has become a norm. It’s interesting in this carried over to “Preliminary Problems in Constructing a Situation.” We often read society as a whole, but if its broken down to the individual, people often construct their own daily situations. People interpret and its all to an individuals benefit. I found that constructing a situation relates to the idea of an interaction between machine and man as seen in “From Plans and Situated Actions.” A computer is situation designed to benefit its user. The situation established by man influences the actions that are carried out day to day.
