Repetition where he said "doesn't it feel good to touch?" 3 times in a row. With his voice he also says it in three different manners which really resonated with me and how we are obsessed with our tech today.

I drew inspiration from his topic itself. The idea of what technology has done to our way of communication and interacting with each other. The topic itself is heavy and he was able to construct a very blunt way of discussing it that I admired.

I related to the part where he said "where there are voices that are only read and laughter is never heard". I relate to this because everything is online and we end up reading text and sitting behind a screen instead of talking to people in person.

Some literary devices Marshall uses includes repetition (When he says click 3 times) and when he uses multiple line lengths to adjust his standpoint. emphasizing some things that are more important to others - Kiernan

Jones's use of a robotic tone and movements when reading out his poem would be helpful to utilize when reading my own poem. I probably wouldn't make it robotic, but change the style of my speaking and movements to reflect the message of my poem.

Every "click" in the poem really exaggerates each point that Jones makes regarding the effects of social media. It also helps to draw and reset our attention before our minds drone off in the long list of events Jones is bringing up.

This poem made me understand better the premise of slam poetry, so it became much more clearly what topics I should write about for an effective poem

The inspiration I got from this poem is that I should talk about a topic that people are concerned about. When it comes to issues like these more people are able to relate and more people will understand what I'm writing about.

Marshall uses an allusion to the Garden of Eden and the branches of Macintosh. It's a very jarring warning, and it appeals to a pre-constructed cultural symbol of forbidden things that seem appealing but will ultimately hurt you. It helps connect the poem to the world around it.

A line that resonated with me the most is "My smile is 50% genuine and 50% genuine HD" This is because most people will definitely smile more on social media than in real life but also it made me think that a smile is not worthy of its entirety when it's split between a smile and an HD one.

Really makes me want to use literary devices in my poem. Those literary devices can prove extremely beneficial at making the words I say stand out. -Kiernan

this whole poem is of course fill with allusions.
the first one he did I feel was the perfect way to draw in an audience.
"introducing the new Apple iPerson
complete with multitouch and volume control."
and while he said this, he was really robotic with his voice and hand movement.
he was an iPerson and I loved using that to draw in an audience.

It resonated with my when marshall had said that he has 3000 followers online but only 5 real friends in real life... This goes to show his point about how fake the internet and social media can be...

I really liked this line : "from the Gardens of Eden to the branches of Macintosh" . Not only is it great personification, but just a great comparison.

"doesn't it feel good to touch?"

Repeated three times straight from the pitch. At first it confused me, but the emphasis placed on a phrase describing something that we have so naturally brings to mind that while it's something we have unconditionally we may be throwing it away. Throughout the poem Jones utilizes repetition in a similar manner as well.

the phrase "amateur person" got me thinking about different states of personhood. What does it mean to be human? How do people justify relegating people to lower classes of humanity? In what ways are there double standards for those seen as "fully human" and those seen as less important, whose job it is to accommodate the majority? - dylan

"From the garden of Eden to the branches of Macintosh". This symbolizes and makes a reference to religion when he connects the idea that Apple is always about oneself.

The author's use of diction and wordplay when including "We used to sprint to pick and store blackberries/Now we run to the Sprint Store to pick Blackberries" adds a bit of humor and irony to the message of the poem (nature/the real world vs technology).

It introduced the influence live reading could introduce on the overall impact of the composition. As if some points absolutely required the live reading from the poet to truly express its prose.

His poem was inspiration because when he said  "doesn't it feel to touch" in a way as if he was glitching like technology. I see it as we are so addicted or using technology on a daily base we are turning into a a glitching computer. you used to connect by talking to people in person and now we connect by " did you like my post" or "did you see my text" .   - Nathalia

"iPod, iMac, iPhone, iChat, I can do all of these things without making eye contact"

"Yo would think these headphone jacks inject  in the flesh the way we connect to disconnect"

I specifically liked these lines because it shows how advanced technology has created a barrier for human interaction and we base a lot of our lives around social media and technology.

There was a moment where he used repitition where every word would start with "i" to mimic Apple products
(MI)

# data[].attributes.body
near the end he said
"that I hope the Technologic can reverse the universe
so the screen can touch me back"
this really hit me because I remember times, especially during covid, where I needed a hug but the best that can be done is an emote.
also emotionally.
It doesn't feel the same hanging out with someone online than it does in person.

Could music--specifically rap or anything lyrical--be an implementation of slam poetry that is properly able to convey the meaning in a poem through a person's impressive ability to properly articulate all of their thoughts properly?

He uses alliteration in "whole web wide world" to emphasize his mockery of social media and how we treat it as an important aspect in our lives when it shouldn't be.

Do you think that technology, especially sms/social media services are technically necessary to modern day life? Do you think there is a way to <realistically> limit/reduce how much people use it? How? Do you think having acess to technology is a good thing or a bad thing, considering places like North Korea where media and social media are heavily monitored and limited?

I believe that the style in which he is talking was very interesting and how he emphasized important parts/cimaxes in his poem that will capture the audience's attention with his movements.

" Ipod,Imac,Iphone, Ichat. I can do all these thing without using (I)contact." I can relate for myself or seeing other, when we walk in the hall and we don't want to make it awkward making eye contact pasting others so we go on out phones to save us from awkwardness  - Nathalia.
