Looking back on the journey that has been project brief four.. We started this project unsure what to do our essays on.. our theme was ‘Media and Medium Technologies.’
We discussed gaming straight away, but we were also drawn to themes such as surveillance and hacking and artificial intelligence.
After some deliberation and research, we realised that gaming was a topic that we were all interested in, and also was most fitting for our theme of ‘Mediums and Media technologies.’
After a lot of brainstorming and mind mapping, it got to the point where we had to make individual as well as group creative choices surrounding the project. This was an awesome learning curve for me, as I not only consciously reflected on my own creative practices but I also learnt about how others make creative choices, and I think aspects of that has helped me grow in my own creative choices.
Once we had a good idea about what we needed to know and were we wanted to go, we needed to structure our essays.
This of cause changed a little as we started creating, but the main structure stayed the same. It was good to go back to the structure and reflect on it, to make sure we new exactly were to go next with our essays.
