Today we had the last networked media symposium everrr.
There was mostly discussion about how protocols both social and technical ‘control’ behaviour online, the dangers of violating these protocols as well as the humiliation that might come with it.
Adrian also mentioned how our course is not really appropriate for media makers at the bottom of the rung because the teaching model is catered towards those higher up in the profession (such as those who plan/create distribution strategies over different media platforms). When he said TAFE was better suited for that, I cried a little inside.. I started this course because it was/seemed like the safest option, and though I had thoughts about dropping out to enter a TAFE course, fear got the better of me. Anywho, I’m still here and may as well try to do a good job while I’m at it.
Only a couple weeks left until the school year comes to an end. Can’t wait for break!!!
