Matt is trying to say that no matter how our cultures may differ, we all can express ourselves in similar ways. We are all humans, no matter what people may say about the different races of humans. Seeing that is difficult for many people, and watching this video, we see that those who dance with Matt are conveying a powerful message: unite and be strong together.
Matt is saying that even though we are all different, we have many similarities. The people dancing with Matt support this by not caring about who Matt is and joining him. This video shows me the similarities of people
As language brings the world together to communicate with each other, there are many different kinds of languages, accents, dialects and what not. Same to dancing, dancing is just another category of language, there are many different styles of dancing, no matter where you are there is a type of dancing and Matt is trying to tell us that dancing brings people together to share they're cultures style of dance.
What Matt is trying to tell us is that the world is a grand mosiac made of many diverse peoples, with their different languages, cultures, religions, and just ways of being, dance being inluded, but dance puts together so many different things, such culure, religion and language and it's a way that we can all communicate and understand each other because it's something that expresses eveyrhting that we, as people really are, no matter how different we may seem.
I think that matt is trying to say that we are all the same as humans but its the way that we express ourselves that changes. Even though our languages and cultures differ, dancing is a universal way of communication and the different people joining in to dance understand that.
At first Matt dances alone. Then, as he begins to travel more throughout the globe, he begins to unite people by the art of dancing proving that actions can be stronger than words. He's telling us that even though we have diversity, there's still similarities among us.
I think he is teaching us how dancing is part of the worlds culture. The culture of different people teaches us there way of life and how they do everyday things. Benji
What Matt is trying to say is that no matter how we dance, laugh, talk, or look like, we are all the same. We can express each other in different ways, but the message can still be understood. We still have ways of communicating each other wether it be dance, music, or language. What brings us together makes us who we are, humans.
The world today has become narrow-minded that they believe they do not have any similarities with each other, and as we all know, dancing is a symbol of culture. Throughout the globe, there is a great variety of cultures and ethnicity, but Matt brings a common ground with dancing in order to link different parts of the world together despite the different statuses. It also presents an optimistic point of view as some countries have differences with each other or internal conflicts can all be neutralized by dancing together and forgetting everyday problems. Although Matt starts off dancing alone, more people starts to understand his purpose of cooperation and setting aside differences. It's difficult for one person to make a difference, but if we could all work together, we could put aside our differences to develop a great production. I thought that the video was trying to tell us that even with the numerous lifestyles, differences and conflicts, we are always united as one.
Matt is saying that no matter who you are and where your from, we can all come together in order to accomplish something great. The people he dances with are showing us that this is a universal philosophy. It says to me, "Dance" but i dont really want to.
Matt is demonstrating the power of unity, on both a local and global scale. By dancing alone, with a group, and (metaphorically speaking) with the world, he has created a sense of peace and prosperity in a language we can all understand: dance. Dancing is something we all can connect to- even if you don’t know how. By dancing with Matt, the other people in the video are showing how it only takes just one voice to bring together an entire world. This video gives me a little hope that the world might be a better place someday. If we were all like Matt and went out of our way to create a sense of companionship with our fellow nations, maybe someday we could have a world without war.
Matt is trying to say that no matter what differences the world's cultures may have, we can still come together and be "at peace," if it's for 30 seconds, or 30 years. It gives me hope that the world can unite and become pre-dominantly peaceful with few conflicts.
As many people have said, music and dance are universal languages that cross-boundaries and help tie the world together.
Matt is trying to communicate to us that the world needs to come together and share their views and cultures. The people are responding to Matt by coming together and showing their cultures to Matt and the veiwers. They use dance, the universal language, because it is a sign of peace and joy that all people understand.
Most people said similar things, and I agree. Matt is trying to show the unity of the people no matter what culture or race. Those that end up dancing with Matt are those who wish to show their own beliefs and cultures through the universal language of dance. To me, this video shows that all people are united together and that all people are just people. Even though they're not all the same, there is a unity that puts all people together. Some people don't accept others, for reasons that I don't understand because whether they know or care about it or not, the unity is always there, connecting them to the very person that they don't accept.
Matt is trying to communicate to the world that we are able set aside our differences, and unite to express happiness and unity in the form of dancing. All the different people of unique backgrounds and cultures coming together represent peace and love that every human is able to express. This video sends a message that we can unite together and create peace and harmony in the world if we set our differences aside and respect one another for the purpose of happiness.
matt and those he dances with are expressing a message of unity and communication as he dances all around the world; such as language connects everyone else, we must cooperate with one another to solve bigger issues worldwide
What Matt is trying to communicate is that we can all come together even with our diversity and cultures. Even if our cultures are different one thing can bring us together and that one thing was dancing. It was the way Matt used it to communicate. This brings the concept that we can all be open minded about things we aren't sure about and have new ideas towards the new year.
I think Matt is trying to say that no matter where you are, people can always find something to unify together in despite the differences. In the video, Matt was dancing and other people around him understood that and started dancing as well so actions can go a long way when trying to communicate with other people.
Matt is trying to say that even though we don't know each other we still can get along. He doesn't actually say it but he uses the form of dance a communication to the others and it works. Which in the end unites everyone and brings them all together.
Matt is showing us that even though the world has many differences, there is always some similarities, things that we all can relate too. We may think we are different from terrorists and we are in some ways, but we need to realize that we all have the same inner language, a human instinct.
I think Matt is trying to say that we should unite globally but when he shows different places it symbolizes to act localy. It's also a symbolisim that no matter where were from we all are the same. Diversity is a key to this boring dull world. It doesn't matter what race color were all the same.
Matt is trying to say that even though the world has many differences with its cultures and races of people, there are certain things that bring us all together and are understandable by everyone, such as dancing. Those that Matt dances with are communicating their way of dancing, which differs in every place he visits.
Matt is explaining that despite differences between each country, and those differences might bring the countries farther apart, there is still hope to unite the countries and have world peace by dancing because almost all countries have dancing and dancing could bring the countries into unity and maybe even prevent a war.
Matt is trying to tell everyone that dancing is a language that everyone can understand. It is dancing that brought all of those people to him not by speaking through words but with dancing. He is telling us that we all unite when we dance or do something that can bring us all together. His whole message in the video is it is not necessary to know another language or know other people's culture to come together their is one thing that can always unite people: Dancing.
In the beginning of his video, the first few clips showed matt dancing alone. As the video progressed, others gradually joined Matt, and showed off some of their country's culture in their various dances. This video represents the coming together of different cultures and people working together to create friendships and share positive as well as memorable experiences.
Matt is trying to emphasize the fact that language or any other means of communication does not have to be verbal. The people that Matt dances with are sharing their culture with him, proving that people from different backgrounds can coexist. The moving piece demonstrates unity, or bringing of the people together. It creates the image or idea that everything put together can make something all the more beautiful.
Matt is trying to bring everybody in the world happiness by dancing. Since dancing is a way humans understand each other, every one else dances back with Matt. Dancing can be shown as a language that everybody understands. Matt brings the world together from every part of the world Jenny Chen Period 1
In the video, i think that matt is trying to tell us that no matter where you are from, what language you speak, or what culture you are everyone around the world knows dancing. Dancing is a way that everyone can communicate. Most cultures in the world have a special way of dancing and it usually shows us something about their culture and the way people do things in it.
Matt is repeating the same dance though out the entire song, and the people who he is dancing with are doing what he is doing too!! But toward the end he finally starts dancing in the style of another culture, and i think that shows that he is learning things from others and changing his way to the way of other people and their cultures.
The parts in which he is dancing with no one represents that a person has to be him or herself, and dancing alone shows that you take a piece of yourself where ever you go!!
When everyone joins in to dance with him shows that joy and dancing are universal. Because no matter the culture or place you are from everyone enjoys dancing.
I think that what Matt is trying to say, is that alone, something does not really have much significance, but in a large group it has great significance, relating to events like Global Warming, which can't be stopped by one person, but if we work together, we can have it stopped
