MySpace Group

I was part of the MySpace/ Social networking group and we tackled the many issues that are faced in the social networking realm today. These issues include the justification of subjectivity and identity, postmodernism, consumerism and social interaction. Being that its a topic that was loosely all over the place, many of us decided to choose a particular route and focus on those. I decided to put forth all of my effort in finding relevant information on the subject of Subjectivity and Identity (which will be prevalent in my final essay). I decided to focus on strong examples that would best help in making the identity part of the project flow smoothly. It was my intent to find questions that would best work for the project, although the questions that were used in the actual game itself weren’t mine, but Jeanette’s.

Along with doing research for the identity part, during the actual presentation itself we decided to spread the duties around and since Evelyn came up with the first examples for identity and since we weren’t sure that the time allotted would actually be enough, we decided that it would be best if one of us read instead of two, so Evelyn read the identity part and I read the questions for the game. All in all, it was a project that wouldn’t have been possible without the help from every single member of the group.
