This picture by Banksy that shows two African American women working on a plantation, and another African American woman who seems to be cut out of the picture and sitting on the frame smoking a cigarette. Banksy has many art works sending messages to his audience about world issues. This obviously shows how during the enslavement of Africans, the Africans were worked to the bone. This shows how the slaves were tired of being controlled and treated unequally. This was made to address how the African Americans during this time brutally over worked. Its purpose is to show how the slaves detested this manual labor. This was addressed to people who know of enslavement of the Africans in the Americas and Banksy fans. Elements imagery and pun. Personally I like this very much. Its different from other paintings, and very realistic, it looks like she just stepped out of the frame and sat down.

Game Informer: Co-op Issue

This issue of Game Informer focused on the third installment of the successful trilogy, "Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel". The article by Jeff Lork is about how the team at Visceral Montreal are making big changes to the AOT (Army Of Two) franchise. In the previous installments, Rios and Salem (main characters of last game) were two cold heated mercenaries that took joy in their job. The game developers are taking a new turn with this game. They are moving into a more serious mode with the new characters of the game; Alpha and Bravo. Visceral Montreal wants people to tell their friends, "Man, you have to play this game".(Jeff Lork) The purpose of this article was to tell people that the third Army Of Two are making major changes to the new game, but still going to be the same fun game that their fans loved. This was mainly to the people who loved the previous AOT games. This is telling them that they are in for a real treat. I think that Jeff Lork did a good job telling the fans of what to expect for the third AOT. I'm a big fan of the franchise, so I'm very excited. This gave me an insight of the new characters, plot, and aspects of the game.
