I really enjoyed the dialogues with Josh, Arzu, and Onnik. I appreciated that they took the time to answer our questions and I enjoyed reading and keeping up with the different questions and responses posed by other DOTCOMers.
I also liked the analysis behind the different types of persuasion in media. I think marketing and persuasion isn't often thought about when the mass media bombards our lives, but having a constant reminder in the back of your head that the company is ultimately trying to find any way possible to sell you a product (no matter how much of a bigot they will make themselves out the be).
What was the most challenging part of the DOTCOM PHASE 1 project for you?
What was the most challenging part of the DOTCOM PHASE 1 project for you?
The most challenging part would have to be the analysis of the videos as pertaining to the neocortex, limbic, and reptilian brain. I found that my analysis behind each of them would blur the lines between them.
What is one specific suggestion you have for the DOTCOM PHASE 1 project, when we do this project again?
One suggestion would be to have more "special guests" from different fields so that we have a broader view of the reality facing social/community activists as well as how they combat issues that we will be facing when we begin to "socially conscious" create films.
