Fresh Foods Fresher lives

Our goal is to make accessing small, locally grown/made produce and products easier for people living in the Chicagoland area and surrounding suburbs. We plan to achieve this by making information about dates and times of local farmers markets more easily accessible. We currently have a Facebook page and plan to maybe get into contact with larger chain grocery stores which cater to such quality standards such as Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Plum Market and Eataly. By doing this we hope to inspire people to support their local farmers and care more about getting the highest quality produce possible.

We will also be including things such as fliers, and review on books about Organic and Fresh foods that have tips, recipes and basic consumer information.

Remix: Copyright or not

When it comes to copyrighting, there are a lot of issues that come up.    And I am on the fence about it at this moment.   I have had people, friends, who have tried to copyright my stories and creations under their name.   That is a theft that is not easily forgivable or forgettable.   I have never forgotten it and so I am actually a bit paranoid.   As a writer and an artist I feel I would actually prefer it if people came to me.  I have worked so hard on creating my characters, my stories, my world, that I would be horrified if someone took it out of the context I meant for it to be.

Now, I'm not saying that I don't understand the other side of it, so I think I would copyright a good amount of my work and specifically  come up with something that I can release for Creative Commons, that other artist can use.


My Artist Manifesto:

Protect yourself and your work

Help others and create to help them

DON'T take yourself too seriously.

This Pitch or that?

And my writing for new media class we all have to present ideas for us to work on in groups that would create an active web space.  

 

My idea was on creating a common space using common language for cultural studies. This is an attempt for the structural lysed institution to see why so many people tend to shy away from learning about its theories and ideas. I really think my idea for a came out of the basic frustration that I feel I have with the field.   From what I see so far the academic ideals of cultural studies is just that academic ideals.  My idea was to form a webspace is kind of a cultural studies support group. 

 

Everybody from our class each gave us their own idea what do you think our project should be one of the projects that I really liked was the project for fresh and organic food by local farmers to be more accessible.  I really like that idea because when I lived in China all of our food was made fresh right there you could stand there and see them making your food you could go to the street and find fresh behind next or Lowdes much that would just brought in everything was so much fresher and it just improve the taste of food and I think that in America while it's what we say we want we still program to go to the store and buy something frozen third in the freezer and reheat it when we needed that could be why America's best countries other than the fact that we supersize everything.

The other idea that was pitched to the class was one for online book club. That is an idea that I feel like I can get behind I work in the bookstore I have for a long time I worked in libraries and I think it's time for people to become more active with the reading.
