My Yoko Ono project was to ask 3 random people a question that would give me a short answer and make posters and put them on the 3rd, 4th, and 5th floor of the fine arts building. At first I didn't really like the idea of going up to strangers, because I was afraid of people being mean. The first person I asked told me that he didn't have time and walked away, so I didn't feel well about that. So I decided to ask a girl who was sitting down and I felt the need to explain the reason why I was going to ask a question. She was very nice and agreed. I asked her to describe me something when I say the color red. Her answer was Silky flowing ribbons. I can't remember what the second person responded, but I remember the third who was a man that was coming out of class and I asked him what was his favorite activity and why. His answer was dance, because it's who I am. I loved that answer out of the 3. So at the end I felt very good about the project and would even like to do it again.

What I think about the article is that it is a great way to really make people notice what are all the bad things that are currently happening. Advertising has become so powerful that companies pay millions to make their products known, because it really works even if you think it has no effect. Advertising is everywhere so there is no way to really escape them unless u go to the middle of nowhere, however when I was on the road to Mexico out of nowhere and there was a big deoderent can from Axe and women climing on it. So if we can change these ads and other public displays to inform people of all the things that we choose to ignore. My idea was about putting out how these big companies like Nike are taking their companies to other countries to pay less and not have to give benefits.
