1st Crit Feedback

Research question:

    Me and Orla- Instagram courses
    Pinterest- Difference between search engine/ social media

Methodology:

    Questionnaires on Instagram- Primary research
    Articles: is Instagram toxic? Or is the toxicity the people
    Analytics

Practical direction:

    Data art
    Installation
    Concepts of filters
    Idea of aesthetic
    90’s cosmetics (branding and selling off the name)
    Jaqueline (affiliate links, branding as personality)

Aspects that need defining:

    The question
    Where you sit in the world
    Who you’re going to talk about/represent
    How to be successful on instagram
    To what extent does success on instagram depend on the quality of the work
    What do I think

Aspects that need expanding:

    Taking the social media experiment and using apps
    Looking into the concept of exposure and owning your own work
    Effects on payment
    Passive viewing and how it is toxic
    Who you want to analyse, cosmetics or design?
