Who do you think you are?
Our culture is heavily relied on media, I am an individual that does not revolve around the media. By observing my family or friends it really is time consuming. It takes away the act of interacting with another person in real life. I try not to take any part of the social medias or any platforms that will utilize my time.
I try to focus on what is important in my life. There will be times where I am dealing with media consumption. My role in that part is that I do not intend to use social media as much because it takes a lot of time out of my life. For an example, in the link below it is about how the media and technology can disconnect you from the real world.

In middle school, I've experienced shared art through an app where you can display animations and it would inspire me to make some myself. At one point, I had an audience who would motivate me to keep going and who were also inspired by me. I constantly posted on the daily, it gave me a drive to make something that I had enjoyed and receiving feedback was great as well. Also, in the app your identity can be hidden. I had a sense of privacy through that app because I was not comfortable in displaying who I really was.
How the media fits into my life is how I present myself on those platforms, such as Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, & etc. On these social outlets, I do not put that much information about myself. I prefer others not to know about my business because I rather not hear unnecessary opinions because I find it irrelevant. If it's advice and motivation that will benefit me than it is fine. As for the future, no one can really tell what will happen, as of right not I do not intend to post any pictures of myself or my art but when I feel comfortable again, I would love to be active on social media.
