Firstly, is technology. Both science and technology have ascertained a somewhat cultural equity, yet they are two very different aspects of our lives. Primarily, are the core uses of each, technology is advanced in order to provide humans with a usable item to overcome obstacles or ease the difficulty in performing said task. On the opposite side is science which is a set of ideals used to answer questions about perceived phenomena. Technology is often tied in with a common sense path of thought, such as the wheel making something easier to push. The individual does not need to understand the science behind this, they simply observe and apply the technology in order to become more efficient. Science however, would look at the forces in the natural world acting upon this wheel, such as friction and explain why the device made movement easier. The reward for advances in each of these fields is also vastly different. Those who seek to advance technology hope for money in compensation for their new product placed on markets. Scientists however, seek advancement merely for the esteem and self gratifying feeling of …show more content…

Yet in art, no one objects to another play of similar setting to that of Shakespeare’s
