Just Thoughts

So first sumester here at Hereford College of Arts is almost done! And that means it's time for holiday work (not fun) got plenty to do over the Christmas break. The main body of work I need to get done is our personal project where we take a previous week's topic and re do it but better and in more depth.

I've decided to choose documentary photography and focus on addressing Commercialism as having previously studied sociology such topics are often floating around in my mind. With Christmas coming up this should be emphasis on heavily saturated ads and the like etc. I might in turn contrast this with the death of the independent buissness and photograph closed down shop fronts. We'll see

Research - Pop Culture

Pop Culture: ‘Modern popular culture transmitted via the mass media and aimed particularly at younger people.‘fashion, music, and the iconography of pop culture offered the perfect medium for profit’’ - Oxford Dictionary

Pop Culture: ‘Popular culture or pop culture is the entirety of attitudes, ideas, images, perspectives, and other phenomena within the mainstream of a given culture, especially Western culture of the early to mid-20th century and the emerging global mainstream of the late 20th and early 21st century. Heavily influenced by mass media, this collection of ideas permeates the everyday lives of the society. The most common pop culture categories are: entertainment (such as movies, music, television, and video games), sports, news (as in people/places in news), politics, fashion/clothes, technology, and slang. Popular culture has a way of influencing an individual's attitudes towards certain topics.’ - Wikipedia definition

What does pop culture mean to me?

I believe pop culture is the attitudes of the mass of society towards subjects such as music, film, fashion, art, news and sports. I also believe it to be the clothing that I see worn by very large groups of people (the mass of society) as well as the music they listen to as well.

Pop Culture which I am interested in and could look into for this project:

Fashion

Music

Art

New Designers - Private View and Awards Ceremony tonight!! All set up!!

Putting up the exhibition was a little tricky. Things just don't look the same as they do in your head and I should have learnt this by now. Oh well. 

My pieces looked so lost on the wall space I'd been given so some rethinking had to be done - spent an afternoon sat outside measuring a new border size for them to sit within. So glad I spent so much time measuring it all out, I'm really pleased with how it turned out.
