I need help creating a virtual time capsule. A time capsule is a grouping of items for future discovery. For our purposes, we will imagine that our time capsule will be buried at the end of the course and opened 100 years later. The goal of our capsule is to provide an overview of what I believe future generations will need to remember about the twentieth- and early twenty-first centuries. Though your time capsule is not physical, it will provide the following:
A letter of introduction to tell someone in the future about your day-today life?where you live, where you work, what your family and friends are like.
An example of morality and decision-making in current culture
Your definition of happiness
Your definition of freedom
You will also need to list the following, along with a paragraph detailing why its inclusion is critical:
A significant literary work (poem, short story, or novel)
A significant example of art or architecture
A significant song or group of songs
A significant film
A significant item from popular culture (a toy, gadget, fad, etc.)
Since the majority of our lives have been spent in the twentieth century I can include for example, a 1909 Pablo Picasso painting, a 2003 Jay-Z album, and a Gwendolyn Brooks poem from 1945 in my time capsule.
