Project 3. Script

 Project 3. Script


On November 21, after important work, I spent a day without using electronic devices. He did not have a television set because he lived in a dormitory, but did not use his laptop, iPad or cell phone. I already expected it before the experiment, but it was harder to live than I thought. I'm going to pick out some of the many inconveniences. 

First of all, it was hard because there was no way to contact. Team projects and meetings were inconceivable and there was no way to contact friends or family. I couldn't use e-mail because I couldn't use my laptop. The only means of contact, "letters," would have been used immediately if the experiment period had been more than a day. There were problems besides simple greetings because I couldn't communicate with anyone. Because I live in a dormitory, I can't order food because I can't use the 'delivery application' to order delivery food often. So I had no choice but to go to the convenience store and buy some food to eat. I couldn't go to a cafe because of Covid 19 and there was no way to contact my friend to go to a restaurant with me, so I packed food near the dormitory and solved it.

 

And I always listen to music. No matter how boring you are, you can spend your time well if you can listen to music. So it was more frustrating because I couldn't listen to music than watching Netflix or YouTube. There was nothing I could do in the dormitory all day, so I did some simple homework and spent meaningless time lying on the bed. And I could not listen to music even if I went out for a walk, so I felt so lonely and didn't feel like I was taking a walk listening to music, so I came back to the dormitory in a short time. 

Finally, I realized that there was little I could do because I didn't use electronic devices. These days, I do my homework with my laptop, and as I submit it, I rarely use paper. So I couldn't do my homework for that many hours except for the tasks that I could do by my memory for a short and short time. It was an opportunity to look back on our daily lives that we now seem to be living a life of too much reliance on electronic devices.

 

With the development of technology, it is good to live using electronic devices, but we have come to realize that it would be better to avoid the way our lives are dominated by technology. It would be hard not to use all the electronic devices suddenly like this experiment, but little by little, I think we need to bring back the old analog methods into our lives. So I think this experiment was very meaningful to me.

Imagine you and your family are throwing a party for your family friends in your house. What are the stages?

 I think the stage is 'back'.  In this situation, I'll only invite the friendly friends in my house, so, the people who in the party going to be most close friend to me. With close friends we talk about anything, like hating person, talking about crush in somebody or even the physiological phenomenon. And the home. Home is one of the most comfortable place that I can relax my body and my mind. And also, nobody can hear what we say. This is why people love to be at home.   However, we can't talk about this I the public places that everyone can hear this. Because it is embarrassing.  In this case(house party with family and friends), we can do anything that we didn't do outside. So, I think the stage is 'back'.

W4. Extra ) the Interaction Assignment

  I had an Interaction Assignment activity with my companion and observed the responses of pedestrians on the road. Through the observations and reflections of Goffman's theory, we find that "no matter what the specific goal an individual has in his mind or what the motivation for achieving it, his interest is always to control the behavior of others, especially the reactions of others to him."This control will be achieved primarily by a restriction that affects others gradually, and he can express himself in some way by giving others an impression that he will lead others to act on their own will."This is what we call impression management. The process of human communication is the process in which people perform "self", but this "self" is not the real self, but the "self" dressed up in symbolic disguise.

What's the front of a TV idol?

I think TV idol has very different image in front and back stage. Many of them can't show their difficulty or tiredness in front of the camera, because of the image. Many people call that 'professionalism'. Like dancing in the rain in the concert or on the TV show regard of health problem. Also, they have to be on makeup or wear a fancy clothes all the time in front of the camera or in the show. They can be shoot anytime.  Normal people don't do like this. Most people are rest in their home when they are tired or have a health issues. And not everyone be on a makeup all the time. Because everyone don't mind about them. But TV idols are different. They have to be perfect in front of the camera. So, I think the front stage of TV idols is all the time when they are in front of the cameras.
