Looking at Giorgia’s post Atre Moris I am reminded of how lucky we are here in Australia. To not only have the freedom to practise whatever art form we wish to but also have the chance to study it and learn from experts in that area. I remember hearing from Ben and Giorg first hand about how great an experience it was to travel to East Timor. It really sounds like it was eye opening and a great chance to absorb other cultures. Unfortunately I haven’t travelled a whole heap and I feel that in the near future I would love to expand my ideas of the world.

Alex’s post about last weeks symposium Read this, post that was a particularly concise and useful summary of what went down last week in building 56 at 2:30 on a Tuesday. The thoughts that Alex shared about own understanding of the legitimacy of the online content aligned with my own ideas. I also tried to find PDF documents relating to my topic, and with the resource of the RMIT it easy to find reliable information, in a couple of mouse clicks.  Another aspect that I though Alex explained well was how we judge the validity of online articles. Firstly by making sure it’s published on a reputable source or is a popular and secondly something we forget in this day and age, Logic!

To round off my post I looked at Kerri’s Rad Readings #3. Firstly I am in awe at Kerri’s internet-ing ability. There is a twitter widget which is cool and knowing Kerri I know she is a pro at navigating blogs and the internet. This comes through in her discussion of Adrian’s piece on Network literacy. He example of her grandma commenting on friends photos is some we can all relate to as avid Facebook abuser user. We’ve grown up in the internet age and usually  shows in some form of basic network literacy. We all understand that we can’t like our own stuff on Facebook. Not only is that we understand social media etiquette we also have a broader understand the possibilities we have if we utilise networked media.
