Just finished the brain storm for the hyperrealities brief just to get a clear understanding on what I'm most likely going for as a start to think about concepts and ideas.
You may notice that memes is a sub category of millennials; that's because I feel that memes are more of a millennial thing than anything else, I could go down the route of the beginning of memes and maybe even what they could represent to non millennials but I'm rather focus on where all the information is instead of digging to find stuff that might not be documented sure as what was the first meme or trying to understand it from someone else's point for view.
I one thing that I linked memes with that needs a bit of explaining is "fire". I used fire because they bought have a lot in common; for example, when the Harambe meme was released "Dicks out for Harambe" it started off a small bit popular, but when someone from the zoo saw it they asked everyone to stop! This added fuel to the fire and the meme went viral, there was nothing they could do other than making it worse.
Just like fire memes can spread every quickly and can hurt people in the process, once big enough it's best to wait until the fire runs out of air and everyone is board of it.
My favourite one so far has got to be "Daydreaming" simply because I do it all the time to escape from reality and think as it helps me to think of ideas and other ways if doing things.
My next stage of action is to pick a few of they words from the brain storm and than by doing research to find a better understanding of what they are and how other people feel about them; I'll be able to have an idea or two for the project.
