Reflection on Seeing Ourselves Through Technology Chapter 2

Filtering was the main word in chapter 2 of Seeing Ourselves Through Technology. There were many kinds of filters like a coffee filter, water filter, air filter and so on, but the main one was filtered images since the title is about technology. When it comes to filtering images, I have almost no experience. I do actually have 1 app on my phone that filter the images, but the app wasn’t downloaded by me but a friend who is an expert about this; she downloaded the app because, with the normal camera, the pictures look quite horrible. To me, the pictures look normal at original but my mind changes after using the app, it just looks so much better, and that is when I realize that I look quite good, too lol. Do I use the app someone might ask? Yes, I do. It is not that filtering is bad that is why I don’t use it, but it’s simply that I don’t know about it. I don’t use the app a lot since I don’t ever take pictures, but I find the app is very useful. The app basically makes the picture look better by our choice, and who doesn’t like beautiful things right.
