post modernism lecture

Post modernism all though the name would suggest it to be an evolution of modernism is very different to its predecessor. Rather than being an evolution of modernism post modernism acts more as a critique of it. As modernists strives to better our society using logic and sciences post modernism believes that these things have no positive impact. Post modernism unlike modernism does not come with certain traits (such as geometric themes in modernism) that influence design as its philosophy does not involve the creation of useful or better items. What I took from this lecture is that its good to not conform to the styles of your time and mixing a load of mediums/styles can create excellent results.
