The video is burlesque. It is caricaturing modern computers by suggesting that they may one day become smaller than your finger, and making fun of it this way.

Satire, because the video was obviously mocking the computer.

We think that the video is an example of satire because it mocks the mac computer and how everything is smaller these days. Satire is the use of irony and sarcasm and this video has those traits.

I think that the video is more of a burlesque or caricature because it exaggerates the traits of the subject in a humorous way.

I think the Mixing mind and metaphor video is a burlesque because it has an artistic aspect to it and it has a dramatic side to it. It has pictures and creative examples.

I DIBS ON SATIRE!! YEAHHHH. It has sarcasm and irony in the video because the way he talks, shows the sarcasm and his actions describes as irony. He was talking like a "dumbfounded" person. His actions were hilarious and it looks like it wasn't that important. He was presenting the "minimac" as a joke.

I believe the video was an example of a satire because they ridiculed the Mac Laptops, which is a quality of satire.

The video is satirical because it is criticizing how small computers have become in order to exploit their flaws as they get smaller.

The video is burlesque. The video makes fun of the fact that computers keep getting smaller and smaller and that one day they will be as small as the tip of your finger. Or maybe just a microchip attached to your brain?
