Media Implementation
Companies or corporations buying into the software (could show through fake stokes etc)
Anti rallies against the software from population (could be fake website etc)
Basic users rallying against the software
Journalist reporting or media activism (could help reveals from the software)(could be scribbled notes revealing flaws)
Film (from AI pov) showing last anti rally member (dark and twisted video)
Street art in the densely populated town of Newtown. It's a graffiti piece that is meant to represent the counter-culture anti-establishment movement in the fictional setting that CONNET exists in. I emulated this piece in photoshop after taking the photo of the street myself. The top text is difficult to read for a reason but it says "Disconnet".
We created a subreddit as a real platform for the fictional anti establishment movement against CONNET to congregate. We made multiple fake accounts to create various posts on the subreddit and also comment on them. Making CONNET seem real and a threat to the freedom of mankind.

A youtube video of leaked footage from CONNET spying on Kai Thurmull.
I commented on the youtube video a link to the Imagur post. (it got deleted by youtube moderators, thinking it was spam)

This project was a fantastic insight into useful marketing and exposure techniques of transmedia. The transition between various different media forms and outlets to express an idea was insightful. As a group we decided to use my story synopsis from Project 1 as our base story for the transmedia. During the conceptualisation and pitch phase we delegated roles on who would create what media. It also helped us correlate our separate media's so they will connect to one another for more coherent story. I think we worked well as a group and the communication was consistent throughout the project. I made the street art graffiti based off a music video that depicts a TV monster controlling the world around it. I believed the symbolism was similar to the story of CONNET and adapted it to our story. Creating the street art in photoshop from a photo I took on my phone of a street I live near. I helped others in the group connect our media pieces together, creating fake reddit accounts and commenting as if they were real people. Also posting links in the comments that connect to other media as a way of stringing people along to discover more about the story. Overall I'm happy with my input into the project and I liked the end product we created.
