  We'll keep ya 'round! Hi! Okay so my whole approach to this project was pretty all over the place. With such broad concepts like time and space I had no idea what I wanted to do for this video. I tried filming myself and trying some tiktok style transitions, but it just didn't feel right. I felt lost, so I went into my camera roll and found these two videos. On page 63 McLuhan writes: " "time" has ceased, "space" has vanished. We now live in a global village...a simultaneous happening." and not only does this apply to memories, especially nostalgic ones involving family, that gradually change over time it also connects to the unique backstory of these videos.  On my family's ranch we don't have internet and some other modern amenities because of how remote it is.
