hedonism- Psychological or motivational hedonism claims that only pleasure or pain motivates us. Ethical or evaluative hedonism claims that only pleasure has worth or value and only pain or displeasure has disvalue or the opposite of worth.

We seek pleasure and try and avoid pain at all costs. For example choosing to sit on a comfy chair rather than a chair of nails is a hedonistic choice.

Libertarianism – seek to maximize autonomy and political freedom, and minimize the state’s violation of individual liberties; emphasizing free association, freedom of choice, individualism and voluntary association.

Authoritarianism – is a form of government characterized by the rejection of political plurality, the use of strong central power to preserve the political status quo, and reductions in the rule of law, separation of powers, and democratic voting.

Hedonism – comes from the ancient Greek for ‘pleasure’. Psychological or motivational hedonism claims that only pleasure or pain motivates us. Ethical or evaluative hedonism claims that only pleasure has worth or value and only pain or displeasure has disvalue or the opposite of worth.

The Frankfurt School:

The Frankfurt School consisted mostly of neo-Marxists who hoped for a socialist revolution in Germany but instead got fascism in the form of the Nazi Party. Addled by their misreading of history and their failure to foresee Hitler’s rise, they developed a form of social critique known as critical theory. Technology allowed the public to sit passively before cultural content rather than actively engage with one another for entertainment, as they had in the past. The scholars theorized that this experience made people intellectually inactive and politically passive, as they allowed mass-produced ideologies and values to wash over them and infiltrate their consciousness.

Theodor Adorno:

Adorno argued, along with other intellectuals of that period, that capitalist society was a mass, consumer society, within which individuals were categorized, subsumed, and governed by highly restrictive social, economic and, political structures that had little interest in specific individuals.

Rise of the teenagers 1950s and 60s:

Young people who participated in the counterculture of the 1960s rejected many of the social, economic, and political values of their parents’ generation, introduced greater informality into U.S. culture, and advocated changes in sexual norms.

The early sixties for a young teenager was very much about Marks and Spencer clothes, eating plenty of fresh meat and vegetables and unquestioned respect for parents, politicians, teachers, and the police.

My Political Compass:

I am intending to create 3 products for a campaign about the false identifications that social media can lead you up to. For my first product I will be doing an A4 poster landscape to illustrate the 2 different sides of positive and negative sides of the social media and explaining how scammers try to manipulate your thinking about the reality of social media. Their will be two different examples of twitter accounts were one being a scam alert where the other being a real account. This will benefit my audience to see the difference and help them to identify the scammers that are out there and to stop the next set of scammers. The colours will be bright to catch individuals eye’s to make them want to take a look at it. I won’t add a bunch of information so it doesn’t bore my audience as I will much rather make it short and snappy.

For my second product I want to create a flyer as a portrait. My aim for this poster is to teach young children how social media can be dangerous and shouldn’t always be trustworthy. Therefore, my product will be presented for a schools, so that further education can be learnt. It will be the colour blue wit a mixture of shapes to suggest technology and how the internet is always surrounding us. My flyer will have 2 sides to it one being the front cover and the the back. This is just so it can give a little detail of what it is about. I would like my audience to get a sense of control and the cost of benefits that this is giving towards the world.

For my third product for my campaign I would like to create a set of icon apps sliding from the left side of the screen to portray a symbol of social media. Majority of the apps will be common to suggest the use of social media used nowadays. On the right side of the screen I would like to have a quote to suggest the use of problems and risks of using social media in certain ways. I want my poster to be landscape so it makes it easier to lay out. There will be a variety of colours so it will make it bright and catchy.

For my regulation NEA I am going to make 2 campaign posters based on gender equality that would be an advert you would see on the side of your computer on any website and sometimes on a billboard that would be seen in large cities on a billboard or large screen. Gender equality is the state of equal ease of access to resources and opportunities regardless of gender, including economic participation and decision-making; and the state of valuing different behaviours, aspirations and needs equally, regardless of gender. The posters/adverts will be portrait and A4. The target audience is anyone, meaning no particular age or gender. According to the United Nations ‘discriminatory laws and social norms remain pervasive, women continue to be underrepresented at all levels of political leadership, and 1 in 5 women and girls between the ages of 15 and 49 report experiencing physical or sexual violence by an intimate partner within a 12-month period.’ ‘Some 1 in 20 girls between the ages of 15 and 19 – around 13 million globally – have experienced forced sex in their lifetimes’. It has been proved that women still make only about 80% of what men earn for full time work as women are less likely to hold managerial or supervisory positions, and when they do, their positions carry less authority.

Why do females get paid less than males? ‘Differences in pay are caused by occupational segregation (with more men in higher paid industries and women in lower paid industries), vertical segregation (fewer women in senior, and hence better paying positions), ineffective equal pay legislation, women’s overall paid working hours’

On my first poster, I have the title of ‘we are all equal’ will include the hashtag of #jointhemajorityvoteforequality! in the main picture. For the whole of the poster I am going to have two females and a male, this is to show that ‘what we share is more powerful than what divides us’, I am also going to include this quote underneath the two half faces. The type of colours I will use will be dark and gloomy to suggest connotations of an element of seriousness and to catch an audiences attention. This will be a type of social media challenge, I am going to do this by creating a competition, this competition will be the social media user that shares the campaign the most and raises the most awareness will win a reward. On the top of the poster I am going to make it clear to the target audience that it is a competition.

‘Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world.’

For my second poster, I am going to have the title ‘change the world’ and include the quote ‘gender equality is a human fight, not a female fight’, with the hashtag of #womendontexisttobepretty. For the whole picture, I am going to include an edit of a weight that balances out, on one side of the weight the idea of a female is represented, however, on theother side the idea of a male is represented, representing the idea that both genders are balanced and equal. The background of the weights will be blue, this is to oppose the stereotype that ‘blue is a boys colour’ as we are talking about women and ‘all girls like pink’, ‘it is a girly colour.’

I plan to create three products around my campaign about data-protection. For my first product, I will make a poster meant for schools, offices, and other places with large amounts of people, in order to increase the campaign’s spread. My second product will be a moving-image product, which will be shown in television commercial breaks and on social media platforms such as Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, Facebook, and YouTube, since the people using those platforms are the specific target audience for the campaign. My third, and final, product will be…

Statement of Intent:

For my regulation NEA I am going to make 2/3 flyers based about the freedom of what you can post on the internet. The flyers will be portrait and A4. They will be based around any age or gender. My idea will suggest that you should be able to post whatever you want on the internet without the restriction of the government. I am going to use examples of suppression with social media’s such as Reddit, Twitter and Google. The main pinpoint of my flyer though is to show the history of freedom on these social media’s and highlight why its so important. I am going to base my flyers off these campaign designs. The flyers will be very libertarianism compared to authoritarian, meaning it is for freedom rather than controlling

For my flyers which is pro-freedom I will have a divide of information flourishing with bright colours to represent a sense of happiness and freedom on one side and another of corruption on the other side with much darker colours to represent depression and unhappiness. For the strapline I am going to say “Its your choice” to reinforce the freedom to pick what you want which can Gratify the audience using Uses and Gratification. I am going to add a hashtag called #freespeechforall will be created in the process.
