Meet the Artist: What To Expect When You’re Not Expecting
Hello! I thought I would begin this blog with a friendly little introduction of who. I am and what kind of things I’m interested in achieving through using social media platforms to captivate an audience and, hopefully, spread content that could be useful. Firstly, my name is Bree, a studying artist, mainly in graphic design,…
Back To The Drawing Board – How I’ve Already Managed to Jump Ship
Hey, remember when I said in my last post that I had this great idea for a DA and that I was excited to get cracking on with it? Well… it hasn’t really worked out. To reiterate briefly on what I initially thought my DA would be, I wanted to create a YouTube Channel dedicated…
Better Catch What I’m Pitchin’ – BCM112 DA Pitch
Hey, Hey! So here’s the pitch for my DA. I’m starting up an Etsy Store to sell clothing and accessories tailored for your thoughts and how you want the world to see you. Endearingly entitled ‘SloganBoganAU’, my store is going to start with slogan based items which I’m hoping will soon develop into personalised graphics…
If the Medium is the Message… Then the Message is the Medium! Right? – BCM112
I loved the complexity of this week’s topic of ‘The Medium is the Message’. Not only is it a thrilling paradox to explore and destroy your brain cells over deciphering what it means, it makes you truly consider the importance of what the medium is and how it is being used to construct and add…
A E S T H E T I C A L L Y Vaporising Content! – BCM112
Vaporwave and A E S T H E T I C are somewhat of a remix of old and new to create something completely different and spark a contrasting kind of representation that wouldn’t have been apparent when the individual elements of the visual and sound effects were originally created. It relates back to the…
Big Brother Drones – BCM112
I always thought that the ‘Big Brother’ in society would be the government and higher authorities keeping track of the general public, but perhaps with the surplus of cameras and other devices at our disposal it should be the authorities that are scared. For my content this week, after viewing the drone footage in the…
#DontDraftOurDaughters – BCM112
To learn this week that the US election was possibly swayed by the #DraftOurDaughters movement/meme is insanity to me and I had to create content centred around the absurdity. Not only that but I added the fun twist of making it a TikTok to further validate the idea of an active audience as well as…
Schemavid-19: My Opinion > Scientific Fact – BCM112
This week we delved further into the concept of framing within the media and how it affects opinion and moral. I couldn’t help but reflect upon the media, including social, at the moment and how it is littered with fake news and theories across the board due to the current COVID-19 Pandemic. My content this…
Conspiracy Theory = Hyperreality? – BCM112
This week, I really couldn’t go past the concept of a hyperreality as a focus. At first, I didn’t completely grasp the theory through the prisoners example, however the quote found on the meme shown by Teo during the lecture that read “Homesick for a place I’m not even sure exists” tied it all up…
Beta Catch What I’m Throwing – DA Beta BCM112
I’ve had a rough time with the progression of my Digital Artifact, however I have been able to witness the struggles that small business may face in the real world. Despite endless efforts to try and get my twitter account back in the past few weeks, most not even mentioned in this video due to…
Fair Use Isn’t Used Very Fairly – BCM112
The topic of copyright is one that I know all too well, especially with the totalitarian video service of YouTube. As documented in the lecture, I can see the benefits of not having copyright laws in place such as having more exposure for you product and ease of growth and development. However, I believe the…
Mobile Royalty: The World In The Palm Of Our Hands – BCM112
Ahh the development of technology… The pure insanity of it all. We are now owners of technology that connect us to the world and all the knowledge it has to offer, and that technology can fit in our pockets. Being born in the late 90’s, I do remember a time where not many people I…
i made bread will never die – BCM112
What you put out on the internet will remain there for years to come, perhaps even outlive you with the storage and shareability of the internet. With the internet being such a new invention in the grand scheme of history, it was never thought that we could have a place to document something that has…
