This video is about postmodernism and talks about some of the theorists involved and gives some definitions of what postmodernism means. Two theorists mentioned are Lyotard and Baudrillard. The video also talks about the characterists of post modernism.

The video above sees Baudrillard's theory put into place in the film The Matrix. The video explains his theory indepth and shows how it has been included in the film. It helps gives a better understanding of the film as well as the theory that Baudrillad used.

This guy above, has a made a video explaining post modernism using a simple definition in context. He includes the things that are related in postmodernism such as gender, power and class.  He states that post modernism can challenge our thoughts on these things and aren't actually true.

    I found this a really interesting site which has many theorists on postmodernism. It explains the theories and was very indepth. It talks about the history of postmodernism and also uses some key words which are really helpful such as defining modernism and the differentiations.
