The state of the world reflects the ever changing progress forward and the resistance to stay back. others move forward towards technology to heal save and improve while others fear the inevitable and fear that which is “modern”.

everyone considered her a modern girl, even though she felt like she was wearing a straightjacket of conservatism every day of the week. she could barely stand to stay in her neighborhood, let alone walk around and talk – converse – with the other so-called “modern women” who were more like 1950’s robots than anything else. The stupid fashions, the petty backstabbing at the bus stop, the 3 happy hours with the women still in their tennis attire – it was all just too much for her.

When I think of modern things I think of things that are new, trendy, sophisticated, chic and the focal point of current pop culture. I think of new things, things that are shiny and new, futuristic, and sometimes off-the-wall. Usually very cool stuff.
Trevor Dickerson
Modern. I think that modern is what you make of it, Modern could be new, but modern could also be your grandmothers earrings. Fashion is modern, but whatever they had 200 years ago.. was also modern. Think about it.
Jacqueline Ruijgrok
Modern, how does one stay modern? I’m too busy to keep with the times. I think I’d be busy reading magazines on fashion. Why did fashion come to mind when I read modern? I hate fashion. Now I’m talking nonsense. Who cares if I hate fashion? What’s modern?

In these modern times, it is nearly impossible to detach ourselves from any sort of eletcrotnic device. We are “plugged in” our ipods, computers, blackberrys, etc. The misuse of tehcnology as our only form as communiciation such as texting, facebooking, and twittering, is ruining our soicety’s communication skills not to mention grammer and literacy skills.

when i wake up every morning, i stop and think about the roads, the bus and the whole town. when the power grid failed, i thought are we really so modern as we thought?

the world is so interested in living in the future and the past that we don’t stop to focus on the present enough. the way concepts and ideas are viewed in the now is so vital to the impact that we leave that it is absurd to ignore current and modern thoughts.

neo classical contemporary robot space wars against greco-roman pantheonic displays of brute force against housewives of obscene and absurd proportions ever wanting to put in their picnic baskets of tomatoes and chives a lovely auburn sunset as well to complete this MOMA MCA meal located directly underneath the pencils in your wall yelllow yellow yelloe yellow. Sticks all in the wall, a better man could climb that and a lighter one as well. ralph s mouse where you at dog? get your motercycle over here and show these modern motherfuckers what you’re all about… all plasticene and latexy with pastels and vinyl to match your japanese whimsy and sparkly hello kittiness. All segway chairing me around and shit whilst your very hi haircut and modern glasses square me with a question? What the fuck is wrong with you? You aint a cartoon and never will be.

modernism in music is the contemporary stylings that battle the norm of classical music and the rules and boundaries set forth by it, modern music can be classified into many different genres such as metal, jazz, funk, and blues. although these stylings are as different as they are diverse they all draw from similar backgrounds.

modern. what the hell is modern these days? in my life, right now, it’s all about the modern relationship. with heather and i, that’s polyamory. i suck at it. so hardcore. i way to jealous and possessive. but i think that is the way modern relationships need to go. because eachother is all we have, and eventually we won’t all be able to pair off. we need eachother, in big communities to truly value ourselves.

something ridiculous. Everyone has their opinion of what modern is. To another man or woman it could be old fashioned. But to many it is a bright light seeking knowledge of the future. Modern clothes, Modern technology, modern furniture. It’s all just made up. There is no such thing.
Mary
nowadays we think about what is hip. hip is cool, cool gets you laid. in modern ways, that is. no boring man-on-top-posisions, no, we have porn to inspire us. and twist limbs.

The modern age is one where technology is more prevalent than others. We have a dependency on technology which was never there before and as a result, people are becoming more isolated from each other. We don’t trust each other as easily and this hurts intrapersonal communications. We need to get over this and start building relationships once more. While modern can be a good thing, it can also hurt us severely.

“Like Oh Em GEEE” I cried in despair, flicking my hair over my shoulder and raising a hand to cover my gasping mouth… “Oh forget this… I can’t do it” I say seriously, brushing off the valley girl persona, the laughter of my peers ringing in my ears.
“Aww come on! We need you to help!”
“To do what? It’s a short film and I suck at acting- especially being a ditzy girl,” I pout.
“Fine then. You can be our zombie. Go eat the ditzy girl’s friend… and make sure you make it gory.”
My eyes twitches.

i cant really think of what to write. my word is ‘modern’.
i suppose it’s a modern thing that one could go online and find a site that could exercise their quick-writing skills. modern and convenient.

Oh my….modern…my house, my life, the car I drive….the place that I work. I often wish it weren’t so. I actually would like to live in an antiquated world. Mmmmm. Maybe getting old has me wishing otherwise?

There are many things in this modern world. Times have changed, but not for the best. People have become greedy, dependent, and abhorrently cruel. Racism, sexism, and materialism dominate life. People don’t value their lives in the modern world, they value technology that connects them to other empty shells.

Something new, moving out from the classic styling and concept. Delivering a new perspective and ideology.

modern is assumed to be better , but is it. Is modern life with it’s fast pace and many distractions better than the slower paced life of before? Yes many choices but…

world history isazing. i hated the class, though. it wasn’t modern at all, but more bout the old times and renaissance and stupid crap that no one cares about anymore. That’s what we’ve been learning in art history – crap no one cares about. I’m in an art school to do art, not to learn about the times that no one even talks about in books. It’s pointless. What ius modern in the world should be talked about, not what happened decades ago. Because no one cares about tht. i right?

lifeless manequins mark the modern age of this woman. stark, empty. listless.
she can wear it all, have it all and be nothing. so long as she’s modern. she’s proud, but only because she is formed that way, formed in my image, formed for you. to buy. to have. to own. to be. modern.

Modern days. I laughed bitterly to myself.
These were the modern days.
I envied the people of the 21st century, they had no idea how lucky they were. Now, all that was left was flat…dull…land. Empty land.
I was the Only One Left.

i’d rather go backwards, to the days of bows and arrows and sword and skill and honour.. of sorts. it’s funny i associate modern with war and high tech guns. maybe in the future we’ll decombust and return to that simpler past.

Modern? what is modern? Why are there modern and old fashioned stuff? There’s only good stuff and bad stuff. Why label them as modern or old fashioned? It just doesn’t make sense to me. =)

it is a difficult thing to decide what it means. Computers are the centre of moderness today. but thats not what it should be about. now it is hip to be square like. randomness is a good thing now its silly i dont get it. it used to be orignality but now its copying originality.

There was an unbelievableount of old shit in her grandmother’s attic.
Not one single priceless antique.
Not one single first addition.
She tossed the vinyl out with the crinkly only papers and called the House Clearance Company.
She needed to spruce the place up before she could sell the dump.
She needed to modernise.

what is modern? as in modern day? not ancient, but now. or is modern a state of mind? in which, one can live in the present but with attitudes of the past. what would that be? or is it a style? architecture? modern man? modern woman?
