What we learned

What are 3 types of post-modernism?
Historical
Aesthetic
Philosophy
Paragraphs on these in the essay

3 Theorists:
Boudrilliard - hyper-reality and simulation 
Jameson - simulacra, hybrid
Lyotard (main 1 to look at) - collapse of structure, grand narratives

Post-modernism challenges modernism

Money (consumerism) - reputation, and 
Technology - global communication, social media, hyper real

Emptiness - collapse of rules, lack of meaning, lack of beliefs, rejection of what we're told to believe is true 

WW2, 1960s onwards we could consider as post-modernism 

Continuation of modernism in post-modernism
