Creativity and New Media

-

 As an avid food lover, I love trying new restaurants, cafes, etc. I would always post pictures of my food on my personal Instagram account so that I could share these new discoveries with my followers. However, these posts would only last 24 hours on my Instagram story. 

My friends eventually convinced me to make an Instagram food page being that I loved both eating and sharing the new places I had found. I also found inspiration from other food pages I had followed and appreciated the way in which they took pictures of food that made it look so appetizing. I created my food page on February 20, 2019. I posted consistently and made sure my pictures were making the food look appetizing. Unfortunately, the pandemic discouraged me and led me to deactivate my page, as I was no longer able to go out to eat and try new places. 

I reactivated my page as of recently because I have discovered my passion to keep this page running again. Instagram helps me use my creativity as I always try to find new ways in which how I can take the picture. Whether it's taking it in a different angle or adding a filter, I am able to combine my passion for photography and food in one place. I am also always trying to find a way to make my captions creative, while also having it correlate with the picture.


Here is a screenshot of my Instagram food page!

Advice

  If I was hired by Baruch College to improve the college with the use of new media I would do various things. One of them would be to provide a platform in which students can have discussions despite what they are majoring in. As a student at Baruch, it is rare that you interact with others due to it being a commuter school. It is the same case when you are in different schools, as I never interact with students from Weissman as a Zicklin student, unless I take a liberal arts elective. Another suggestion would be to use social media to speak on the achievements of Baruch alumni. Creating a page in which alumni can share their experiences and how Baruch has helped them will aid undergraduates and graduates after graduating. It is often the case where undergraduates like me are first-generation graduates and we have no guidance on what to do after graduation. Being able to interact with Baruch alumni will help Baruch students get a perspective and make it their own. Last but not lea...

 A new form of new media would be the ability to watch 4k movies at home. With this, you will be able to experience the movement from the movie. The movie will also be able to be seen from the virtual reality headset to be able to experience the movie as a whole. I believe this will be created eventually in the future being that it already exists in movie theaters. Now with the COVID-19 pandemic, many technologies have been advanced enough to facilitate life at home.

Blog v Wiki

-
When speaking on the topic of blogs v. wiki, I believe there are differences as well as similarities. Blogs are written from a person’s perspective. A blog usually consists of a person’s own views and opinions. The blogger can also post as many times as they prefer. On the other hand, wikipedias are more fact-based, and do not leave much room for a person’s opinion. Wiki is more of a group collaboration, where everyone can input information they find. Information posted on wiki has to be backed up by a source, otherwise it can be seen as inaccurate.   However, when comparing both, people can have a discussion on both blogs and wiki. There is an exchange of views, where one can provide insight on each other’s work. There is an importance of convergence in today’s networked world because sharing ideas leads to more knowledge. For instance, when people comment on my blog posts, it provides me with more insight. Commenting is one of the ways where people can come together and help each...
