week 8 part 2


We’ve been having a bit of a discussion on if we actually want to do fast fashion because we thought that maybe another group would have done it and we kinda didn't want to have the exact same project as another group  so yeah I kind of thought that another group  would do fast fashion and at this point there were no slides on the Google slides document and we could have really changed topic if we wanted to topic but I'm glad we didn't i did however ask two of the groups what they were doing just to make sure it wasn’t fast fashion so then we then proceeded to go ahead with the presentation and chenming was the first person to have the slides done , I made a little brainstorm on what I wanted to include in my slides I also watched a few documentaries which really helped me understand the production and the waste that it produces. Which i found so shocking and horrible and I wish a fair-trade policy would be introduced as the amount of money the people actually sewing clothes making is little to nothing  shockingly  it seems to be normal in this industry which is quite sad for the workers as the working conditions they have to put up with is disgraceful and should be against human rights.I hope that my team mates find some good information to make this project good and maybe get are other class mates to think twice before they buy the products produce from this ,I know its really affected my choices from now and I haven't even found out what the others have on there slides. Watching the documentaries it also made me feel so guilty for supporting stores that don't treat their workers right in the poorest of countries.

Week 3

The Team project  I'm in the Red team with CrimsonChocobo  and  ChenmingZhang Unfortunately we didn't meet that weekend in second life due to how busy we were and the fact we didn't have any other type of contact apart from second life it was hard to get a hold of them because obviously i'm not and there not gonna be active all the time on second life,I kinda didn't know who they were and i left the class in second life as soon as it was over as i had to do something after, so i kinda failed to communicate with them after the class and it was hard to find them because i didn't know if there username on second life was there real name or not, so it was hard to find them on social media especially because i didn't know what they looked like or there real name.I Managed to private message Crimson m y phone number on second life and i knew she'd eventually get it and before the next class we were able to set up a group on whats app. I think are meeting d...

Week 5

Unfortunately i Missed this weeks class as i was in England and couldn't bring my laptop and i also didn't have access to one while i was over there, So i will be discussing the impact and approach Marshall Mc Luhan's lecture gave to me and the meaning be hide what i think he means.  I think Mc Luhan  is a man that has experienced a lot of things and a lot of people its almost like he's studied people and knows how to read society,In the first part of he's lecture he started saying how much TV and radio have an effect on are life he stated "a TV person has no objective at all and that TV is subjected and literature is objected" .He also thinks peoples opinions can be confusing and misleading "Value Judgement is very personal that it confuses people" what i think he means by this is that when people give there personal opinion on news or reports there often forget there opinion isn't always wanted or relevant. Mc Luhan also goes on to say ...
