Week 10 - Art Activity - Intermedia

 

Living in the 21st I thought about something that I frequently use: Snapchat, which falls under the social media category. To be honest, I couldn't think about anything for this prompt, so I decided to show some of the thoughts I have daily, I don't want to go into any details or add more because  I'm not in the mood. Lately, I have just been tired and sad, so doing most of my assignments is taking a lot out of me. I'm not saying the assignments are hard or anything, I'm just not in the mood to do anything. I have a test tomorrow, but I have hardly studied, I'm just waiting for summer classes to end but then comes the new school year. Anyways back to the topic, I chose social media as my media because a lot of us use it, especially Instagram and TikTok. I use snap the most, I Snapchat my best friend a lot and she snaps me a lot as well. Social media can have a positive and negative impact on users. Besides Snapchat, I was also considering painting/drawing my thought, or take pictures that show how I feel but both those ideas required a lot more time and patients which I don't have at the moment. If I had chosen either of these two maybe it would look better for someone else but to me no matter what I chose it was still going to be my thoughts on display. To be honest, I'm not satisfied because it looks like I put no effort into it but I did put the effort that I had in me. My piece does give the audience an idea of what I think about daily, but honestly, these aren't the only thoughts I have the rest are just even more depressing so I rather not put them all.
