Task 7

Task 7 - Considering what you have learned during this week, change the semiotic mode of the first task (What's in your bag) to a different one. Additionally, this task has to be delivered in audio form. Avoid simply recording yourself describing the image, instead, think about the original purpose of the task and redesign it, as entertained by the New London Group.

Here is my recording. I re-wrote task 1 to be as follows:

• Pick a common or everyday item(s) or digital artifact that is/are of importance to you.
• Create an audio format work where use your item(s) as an example to explore and explain the effects the affordances that the new Internet has had on your home area. You may limit to one area/feature of the Internet.

Disclaimer - Fort McMurray Matters is a real daily local radio segment and podcast, which I have not been a guest on, and use their title for artistic effect only. The local Chamber of Commerce does have a YMM Shop Local campaign, which I do support. The YMM Online Shopping Experts is not real, though I think it has potential.
