Why isn’t the public aware of big issues?
When speaking to Simon and participating in a crit about my research, the overwhelming response was to investigate WHY that is. It has been on the news, yet who really watches the news anymore? In addition, it is sparsely featured- crammed in between celebrity trivia.
Crit
In a way to explore ideas Elliott T, James Green, Courtney F, Hannah Rottger and Alice did a crit and I managed to get valuable feedback on the breadth of research.
As this would develop to be a project with an actual purpose, the necessity to define a target audience to survey is crucial. The question that now needs to be asked is who needs to know to make a difference, raise awareness and open peoples eyes to the world outside our little tech-bubble world, where really unimportant news gets the headlines?
Does people know about East African crisis?
Would people be more attracted to Clickbait News- “40,000 Dead”.
Do people know about other events (Bombings, India, some trivial shit we don’t need to know)
