Wiki So Far

So far in our class Wiki I have contributed to the Fashion page, which I suggested the professor create after seeing it had not existed before. I also added to the Love page, just jumping off where another classmate had left off. In the future, I want to add to the Music page, giving my take on the Hispanic/Latino music in my culture.

    Thank you so much for creating the fashion page! That's what I wanted to add on our class wiki! I am interested in fashion, so I will add more contents to be more informative and greater. I will add categories of fashion, the structure of the fashion industry , and campaign with social media. And, that would be great that you share music in your culture. I would like to add some contents about Japanese music in the section too!

      Glad you're interested in it as well. Can't wait to read more about fashion. Also, I like when people include their culture into music, makes it even more unique and fascinating to listen to.

Creativity

In a world where minds run free, new media is a platform for fostering creativity. People are constantly innovating and reinventing the internet, meaning that new apps and websites that serve different purposes are constantly being created. We see a lot of creativity being fostered in our younger generation, the millennials and post-millennials, or generation Z. The New York Times article "Disney Tolerates a Rap Parody of Its Critters. But Why?", details how YouTube users started 'mashup' videos, where snippets of animated movies and TV shows are edited together and usually combined with a song. Just think of it as Winnie the Pooh characters rapping to a Soulja Boy song. I know you're wondering, "How do people even think of this?" Well, considering how vast and infinite the internet is, this creativity is not all that surprising. Videos like these gain major popularity and spark inspiration for new experimental behavior on the web. Furthermore, the enhan...

Blog about Twitter

Twitter Vs. Blackboard: Are they all that different? Many would be thrown off by this topic, as to why Twitter is being compared to Blackboard. They're used on different platforms for different purposes (depending on who'd you ask), however, alike they create discussion activities. Twitter is a social media engine, where you "tweet" 140-character long posts discussing whatever you'd like. You can follow the pages you like, retweet, reply, and favorite tweets. Blackboard is solely an educational tool used by CUNY students and professors to connect online. Comparable to Twitter, Blackboard has the option to post questions or open discussions over any concerns or inquiries, most likely pertaining to the class at hand. Classmates and professors can respond in the discussions. Both tools have the ability to host private and/or public discussions. Blackboard has no character limit; no restrictions on how long your discussion may be. Therefore, this tool is more prac...

Modeling Reality with Virtual Worlds

A virtual world is an online computer-based environment meant for users to interact in a three-dimensional world. According to Forbes, children are the most avid users of these 3-D worlds, using their accounts for social connection, entertainment, and learning. These virtual worlds ignite a world of creativity  —  Jacki Forbes, a virtual world designer, explains to Forbe. "I create a lot of art — some computer assemblage, some physical art. I also do creative writing and am working on a book that looks at the uses of virtual worlds for NASA's long duration flight missions," she states. However, virtual worlds does not indicate a perfect world. According to Health magazine online, research suggest that how you represent yourself in the virtual world may affect your behavior with people in the real world. Users become extremely "keyed" into the game and that leads to powerful imitative effects in those that wear virtual masks. Overall, I was never interested n...
