The roaring 1920s gained the name by the enhancment of new technology and culture. The radio enhanced our culture in many ways, it improved our knowledge of things going on in the world like the news or even a baseball game that you just couldn’t miss out on. Two art movements, Surrealism and Art Deco had their rise during the 20’s. Photography was a popular way of an art form but a lot of advertising relied on artists and illustrators to produce high quality advertising to be either in black and white or in color. Also, there was a lot of different slang used in the roaring 1920’s, some of which we do use today. For example, baby means sweetheart which is what you call your boyfriend or girlfriend, dough means money and spify, when you’re lookin nice. The slang, art, and culture, influenced how we are today.
