Since we’ve got Monday off (woohoo!) we’ve been given some readings for Media 1. If I’m honest, some of the readings were a little hard to follow. But what I did get from it, was the conflicting interaction between surveillance media and creative media. This brought me back to Year 12 Media, a whole topic was devoted to Media regulation versus Media influence. A lot of the things we learnt there was about how necessary it was to provide strict laws on Media (things like ratings and banning inappropriate material), but that it could sometimes suppress creative expression.
