In the animation “Finding Nemo,” the main character, Nemo, asks questions about the sea and where he lives. “What is the sea?” Hearing this, the dolphin puts Nemo on its back and jumps over the water to reveal her world. When you are in the sea, you do not know what the sea is. However, when you rise above the surface, you can see that the sea is a place where water gathers at a low level, and above it are air and land. She eventually realizes that she is also on the ground with water. If you want to understand the essence and grasp the reality, you must step out of the place you belong to for a while. Further development and reform can be expected. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Even if a work of art or technique that imitates a person is overly clumsy, the favorability declines; conversely, if it is too similar, the favorability drops sharply. This heterogeneous discomfort is known as the “uncanny valley.” Considering these properties, we create robots or create animations. Although technological advancements have made it increasingly difficult to distinguish between live-action and animation, Pixar’s animation clearly shows traces of trying to avoid this uncanny valley. Humans admire these creations, yet they, too, have wrestled with the duality of their nature, as they simultaneously enjoy and dislike it. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
