Journal Title: In Medias Res - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 8

Abstract

Unfortunately, drones or unmanned aerial vehicle were used previously in reality and media descriptions mostly in war situations when innocent civilians were killed. But, human creativity, research and artistic spirit change and the using this type of technology to future unknown possibilities. Although the use of drones in civilian - commercial or artistic purposes - is still not completely defined, media opportunities to discover new art of creativity through aerial perspective and by recording and photographing with drone technology are spreading in practice and on the Internet at high speed. With a suddenly trend towards introducing technology of drones and pilotless aircrafts, as well as digital recording and storing of memory of everyday events, it seems that further possibilities of misuse and danger remain forgotten. With corresponding reflection about the future of this kind of media creativity to which should be given the human dimension, we must ask ourselves if they are normal and expected extensions of human or just new prison bars for Man?
