What is Cool?

Cool, hum...

Cool is taken in the chapter as it effects the major group of young teens has it's varies usage. It is taken not only in different ways, such as socially in their lives but also in the political and business aspects of it.

The term cool, is used as a acknowledgment of what should be consumed, or what should be praised, and what should be recognized. In this, the word "Cool" is the biggest pitch in advertising, because it is a tool used to influence what should be cool and wanted out there.

Final Project Idea

My idea for my final project is on the big Corporate behemoth, Nike. The poster will be to expose nike and the hidden finding behind their great success. I am thinking of exposing the children sweat shops, or at least make the viewer more aware of what is going on behind the big corporate doors.

I might have a different idea, but not quite sure yet!

Ways of Seeing

I agree, glamor is a great example or point.

Marilyn Monroe was seen as someone beautiful, classy, the typical celebrity icon. While Mrs. Siddons, is not seen as glamorous or that of the strata and hold the same endearment.

I highly disagree that if you buy more you are more amiable or loved. I feel that a secure financial standing is important, but the idea that money buys happiness is false. There is a substantial level of emotional, social responsibilities to be upheld in considering society acceptance. The very idea of them trying to convey this to the reader is full a many fallacies. Money can not buy happiness, but it could make it a little easier to live.

Poetic Terrorism

My first idea for my Poetic Terrorism is to go to a University and go to their server room and find the main hard line for the internet. I'm not talking about just disconnecting, but hooking to only one server. So none of the other server will be functional except the one which leads to a single school page that states What will you do now without your precious internet.

Can you imagine what chaos it would cause the students, they will not be able to turn in work or read email. Instructors and faculty will not able contact anyone or get any work done. Hmm..... Its all fun!!


My second poetic terrorism is go to a major local waste management early in the morning, and slash all their tires so they won't be able to pick up trash from anyone. Do you imagine how much trash can build up in one days worth of pick up servicing one whole county? Then e-mail the waste management saying, "Is it eco healthy for the environment where they dispose of the trash? We need a new plan for waste management because if they failed we would be so overwhelmed the trash that could cause a whole different kind of chaos."
