Like last week, I'm really not sure how relevant this lecture was to graphic design was, I feel that this one was very heavily based around photography, with some emphasis on art.
I feel like it was somewhat useful being introduced to the idea of how people can be part of a "non-natural" system such a city, and I think that the concept of "if enough people start doing something for long enough, it's accepted" is something that could be applied to graphic design, but that's about it really.
In regards to the wider creative field, I think that the two black and white silent films that were partially shown in the lecture re-affirm my stance on photography and "film making", in that I really don't think it's very interesting at all. On a personal level, I'd much rather read about the stock market crash than be shown a 10 minute silent film on it, as I feel like it is much more informative, whereas I think the whole concept of "a picture paints a thousand words" is only really applicable to photos that are specifically taken of someone.
