End of the Summer
Morning All,
It’s been a long time since I last posted, possibly April, and a lot has happened.
First, sorry for dropping off the face of the world. I figured I’d take a month off between Spring and Summer sessions and then be back in the saddle ready to go. Well, I did rest, but as soon as Summer session hit – I was off to the races! The problem was, I was in last place the whole time. Now enough with the horse metaphors and on to the real deal.
Summer session is over and with my one week off before the Fall session starts, I want to do a little sharing and see if I can’t get my butt in gear and keep this up. I’ve tried a few times to get in touch with Tomblin since our last podcast with little luck and I shall try again – see if I can get him to join in on future discussions. For now though – what’s been going on?
Over the summer I took a course on Digital Promotions that examined digital communication technology from a philosophical, physical, and analytical perspective. The result is a paper reviewing the power of imagery through the digital promotion for The Dark Knight.
For anyone who’d like to read the paper, here it is: Foucault and The Dark Knight
I discussed and examined the viral campaign executed by 42 Entertainment and Warner Bros. Studios in my Digital Literacy course, but this time I really got to delve into the imagery and discuss it. Love to hear what any of you might think.
Anyway, there is more to come. I have come up with my Thesis topic and it’s based on a different paper I wrote for my MP3 Culture course on the mechanical reproduction of music and digital distribution. I’ll share that next time.
Anyway, take care all and sorry for the absence. I’ll try not to make it so long next time.
