We had a public holiday on Friday 27th of August, on which date the Gold Coast Show is always held at Parklands Showgrounds, so there was no tutorial on that week. So we are one week behind now.
On week 6 tutorial, we formed a group for a culture jam task. Our group discussed some ideas like this:
- Find a UFO on campus (!)
- Koala and rabies
- Energy drinks cause serious sickness
etc...
But the best idea of all was:
A construction worker found gold at the Gold Coast University Hospital construction site, across the road from our Uni!
we decided to spread a rumor that someone found gold there.
1) we made a new face book account for 'Josh Finn'. He has a friend who found some gold at the construction site, and now he has so many friends on facebook (good work, Ruby!). He is going to spread the rumor very soon.
2) future plan:
a) spread a rumor by - twitter, youtube, email etc
b) post a news article at any citizen journalism site. So we have to
- make a news video including some mobile phone video footage
of the person who found gold.
- make a news article
We are going to discuss more ideas, and start this culture jamming on the next tutorial.
Cheers!
