German Mash-Up

For my mash up assignment, I chose to make a study of one of the most bizzarely complex societies on Earth. The German culture. Many people know that the typical German at a normal state seems infuriated in comparison to the rest of the world. However, there are three things that make Germans happy. They go in levels, the most basic being rap music. The next level of happiness many Germans attain is that of Beer. The Oktoberfest in Munich is a HUGE festival and most Germans love this festival. Finally, Germans are made happy by what they may be best known for. Excellently engineered automobiles. For this project I found videos of "Angry German Kid Rapping" followed by a video of the Munich Oktoberfest which were demonstrative of German happiness. Finally, I used a video of a vintage BMW advertisement that has a soft, nearly "Mad Men" quality to it. The intensity of these three videos decreases as the German happiness level rises, demonstrating how the scale indeed works.
