Time to do something for 2018

Time trickles down as we get older and as we stand still what we do builds up around us. We take responsibility of our own muddled lifestyle's enriched by multi media produce. We've moved from being well digging, bucket carrying communities to pipes, taps and jet hoses to gather our sustenance. 

Summer is not far away so at some point I'll have to put a cork in it. As we enter spring there is much to do. 2018 has already been a funny year and just like every year there is the usual things that need doing.

Media responsibilities begin but first let's do a bit of house clearing. Any old news needs to go into bins and you might want to abide by recycling paper trash in the usual places. 
Current news online, offline and wireless can seem quick and fast. I call this machine gun news and think it is done to heighten or confuse people. 

There is a natural order of topics we can sprinkle with whatever they want you to know about. As knowledge about cryptology grows online freely people move from bothersome crosswords and cartoons to the main headline's. Both ways of reading can make you want to scratch your head thinking. 

Equally old school thought is rehashed in education like it means something. We teach our next generations out of date news because it is all we know and what we were told whilst people reached us. Computers have changed things even though the movement of packets and special hand shakes remain the same, almost a homage of the past. We put weight to this glue and bag it up the same way we did when we were kids. The fact is time has changed and yes things have spiced up a bit but how they plant food has not. And it's this sort of lingoism kids understand, especially the troubled flock.

Sat there behind a desk typing, standing up, lying down, single indexing all sorts of messages. The short stop emoji helps brighten up the digital page and fills in that missing void known as emotion. 

Nothing is needed. On it's own we are already confused. Without discipline we are walking zombies bumping into people, driving liabilities secretly lap typing and engaging in conversation's not fit for the road. Behind it all is a clock counting down the fractions of power left in batteries. The confusion creates pylons and battering rams. 

The longer we choose our own castles the shorter the outside most becomes. And inside our prized princess becomes lonely and less fashionable. We always return to our jesters in society and hold on to tickling stick's like it means something when of course it means nothing at all.

Media Audiences - Television in 2018


Watching Television

Viewers around the world watch television from the comfort of their own homes. Television is a popular form of entertainment therefore TV series are in high demand. Consumers by into brands, write, review and explain to others what series are about especially they enjoyed it. Justifying profits from TV series is measured in a variety of ways. This includes measuring online metrics and mentions. This article explores media audiences theory (Stuart Hall) in 2018, particularly in Britain as a template for global audiences perhaps in different language's or accents.

Stuart Hall theory on Media Audiences

Stuart Hall a lecturer from Birmingham in the 1980's wrote a book about Media Audiences. Thing's have changed with the Internet and the new pay walls. Television's have become digital and have more built in device's to observe viewing behaviours. I sure you agree as valid as this subject is in cultural and media studies it's high time we took an up to date look at this subject in 2018. We want to know who is watching what and how this works in a cost effective way. We do this by outlining current forms of viewing and how long does good TV series last. Also we speculate on influence of the mass television media to drive interest in this ongoing theoretical topic.


Mass Production of TV programme's

This decade we have seen series after series remade around the world. These sorts of televisual transactions have indicated how productive this industry can be. Branding is another topic worth noting since culturally a good written series is transferable all around the world. Equally viewing is treasured by many cultures other than natives of the United Kingdom living in other countries. Understanding the chain of investment's in television you should at the end of this article be able to follow the trail and connect the dots right up to mass media outlets who invest in these sorts of things.


Times of broadcast / Before and after the watershed

Traditional channel's follow rules that Internet viewers need not know. Age rule's for example differ, age of consent for example corresponds with all these difference's culturally. Equally other countries outside of Britain have other block's of certain things, China and Russia come to mind. Even America has a variety of state laws. In Britain generally before 8pm GMT shows are classed before the watershed and are targeted at younger audience's who are expected to go to bed earlier in the week to get up in time for school.


Online viewing on Netflix, Amazon, iPlay  and Google

These companies have an advantage because they have a better understanding of viewers buying habit's. Behind the scene's they have direct access to the device's viewing habits and times in which various things happen. Tested shows from over the years are sprinkled in with show's they have made themselves which have mirrored on demand needs of members and device holders. Television viewing can be mobiles, laptops, PC's, tablets and wrist watches. Each I am sure top up the information mass media companies have on their audiences.


Genres serving different demographics and viewers

Hybridisation of genre's is much more prominent, just as every country have their own favourite actors. The Internet is a hodge podge of sources; anything from Pinewood, Hollywood, Bollywood to Nollywood. As the population grows more people engage in media products like the television series. Opportunities arise for writers, translators and TV producers to supply and demand this heavily engaged product. This also creates jobs for actors in the show and advertiser's in between series episodes. Locally popularity of series's mushroom out into the mainstream audience's where currencies carry weight. 


Making television show's cost effective

A live audience in the studio helps install in the show an engaged ambience which works particularly well in comedy, reality TV and day time television. They do this for free and interest is raised through good email marketing in a timely manner.

It maybe difficult to get people to watch if all actors are yet unknown unless the show is a well known series. So starting a new show paying unknown artists peanuts is not a good idea, employing well known actors with decent fanbase can really help a series take off.

Reality TV competitions provide food for tabloid media and bloggers. People want 15 minutes of fame to get more followers on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn. Building portfolio's have been made important as more and more recruitment agents sprout up. This sort of data mining has become as popular as metrics with media audience's.

The best way to cut costs perhaps is location. If you film someplace nice for free, with good lighting you can produce anything. Storytellers can gain from this too when writing for television channels. Also you can film scenes with cheap mobile phones mounted on cheap tripods and selfie sticks.


Branding after a series on Social Media

The show needs an icon, this type of branding really helps. An emphasis on character's, making them larger than life in a world which mirrors cultural realities.

Branding lead well will create a big charge in online memes. Sites like Tumble still daily produce GIF files/ Moving images of TV shows. Instagram gives celebrities opportunities to build there brand. Audiences can bounce of and engage with lucky actors, cast an crew involved around series, films and sound. Live video is also popular on Face box.


Fan base interests to ensure a series continues

Art sites are flooded with images and artists. Writers online have communities where narratives can be developed. The person profile gives films and series a realistic window onto reality. Real people from real characters often unknown to the actual avatar.


Propaganda by rewriting the past, predicting the future and changing perceptions of the now

Television series's that mess with time are often motivated by current changes in consciousness. In time they may want to portray the past in a current way from a group of people's way of thinking in order to feel comfortable in a changing world of prejudice.


Writing stories in episode's

Episode's follow a pattern that repeats in each series. This makes viewers comfortable and breaks down the episode into a singular story with acceptable starts and conclusions. Writers like this sort of thing though timing has been noted as a problem. With Netflix and On Demand series where people can watch the whole series in one blast has helped because each episode can last different lengths of time. This makes writers jobs a lot easier.


The difference between books and televised version's

How many tines have you been impressed by people comparing books to films and visa versa?


Subscriber's, paid viewing, measuring online visitor's

Email is great way for media to draw back viewers. Apps are supplied to keep people engaged within their pockets and satchels. Paywalls give new ways for 'mass media' to keep up with rising popularity of YouTube. There are metrics, then there are metrics. Comedians have always been known to fill their notebooks with purchased jokes.


Physical products like box set DVDs, posters, action figures etc

Stan Lee was a great example of this. Superhero's to some are mythical, which can in the Stan Lee example create icons out of creators. Director Alfred Hitcock did a similar thing. Good jingles starting episodes helps to bind the product. Once something popular is noticed then other shows duplicate. This helps attach a time code to television shows manufacturing.


Theatrical revival's of popular TV shows

The theatre cultivates good acting, which in turn gives actors an attractive skill for being recruited on television series. The funding from movies to television series rises. Television financing is done in house where as movies can now be crowd funded on top of other sponsor's.


Cinema and public TV show screening for crowds

Like a rollercoaster crowd participation is good. Its an environment where relationships are made or ended. Going out the house and travelling to a place of Mecca like the cinema is as important as shops on the high street. Supermarkets still sell popular TV box sets so its nice to see people getting out the house.


Award's for shows and how this helps consumers decide what to consume

By giving awards we get to see people behind the scenes making it all seem possible. People can still go outside, get dressed up and accept or watch other people involved in series's get credited for contribution's. Everybody these days have their own fan club. Some people like storytellers other's may enjoy musical composition's, then there is the Photoshop and video generation who follow who's who in media productions. Extras have interests in propagating shows by getting their family to focus on small scenes where they may or may not appear. Shows can create ripples in costumes, make up and CGI which can last generation's that industries reproduce for fans. Conversation's happen from series which mimmick the work place, The Office is one good example. Crime shows and other services channel popularity in needed government service's that strengthens democracy.


The importance of television in culture

It must be a profitable industry when you see Disney buying out Sky from Rupert Murdoch. I predicted a few years ago cartoons will become a mainstream meme for online avatars of various people. The big screen in door's has reduced costs for large families because they no longer need to go outside to enjoy cinematic experiences for spouse's.


Language, accent's and the Queens English

The derivation of languages around the world is shocking. Equally having every channel adhere to BBC English was an oversight. Every area of Britain deserves a true representative. ITV provides regional news and children's television series before the watershed. After is a lot of American series with far to much swearing. Is understandable why control was pushed but the newer alternatives is more exciting for people like me with an accent.

Fix My Mic on Windows And Mac

There are all different ways to fix your microphone depending on the problem. Updates on Windows 10 can clash with your particular model of laptop. If you use Windows or Mac this post should help.

Hi my name is Robert Bridge Media Marketing Communications 2017.

SKYPE USERS WITH WINDOWS

If you are using Skype App or download, first place to check if your microphone is working is in the App settings. On Windows this is the top bar of the App Windows. You need to be logged in to navigate these settings. Click the Audio settings and to the right is a dropdown box. Choose each until you when speaking you see the green flash lights. You might have more than just two options, so be sure to try them all.

If you are using a Mac Laptop, PC or iPad you will navigate to Skype App settings from the top bar above the browser. In Windows this is the top bar within the application, this is the only noticable difference of finding out Mac Mic settings.

If you still cannot succeed there are a few more options we need to go through, they are perhaps a little more complicated, but I have faith in you to fix. You should follow exactly in the correct sequence of data entry shown on video via YouTube. You want to know what operating system you are using when viewing helpful YouTube videos. Sometimes you will need to check you have to original volume source. If you are troubleshooting downloads every file shows up in downloads. The dates correspond with when these downloads happened. If any recent audio drive software downloads exist and correspond with when your microphone troubles started uninstalling software can help restore back to the state the computer you have was when working.

The worst case scenario is that your sound card is broken. You can download online. If you have a Dell computer and your warrantly is still intact you can download from the Dell website. Just key in your computer code (bottom sticker stuck on the base of your Windows laptop.

If all else fails and you have tried all the troubleshooting videos for your model and make computer it could be a hardware issue. The hardware that often brakes is the soundcard or the actual built in microphone. The mic maybe fine but some wires are loose on the motherboard. Either way to open a laptop you need good small Phillips screwdrivers. I reccomend the thin magnetic one with orange swivel head, its quicker and does less damage to the cross headed screws. Also keep all size screws in empty egg cartons so:

A. You don't loose them
&
B. The right size screws go back

I have tried to fix my mic and need some help!

You can give technical permissions to someone like me so I can remotely access your computer. That way together we can get to the bottom of things.

Freedom and communications with everybody

As the weeks go by we learn lessons and we choose to take on board or override as unnecessary. We are promised freedom and buckle at the knee's or communication's take place and we go for it. Relationship building is just like anything: you should try and get the balance right.

The scales of justice go out the window when making decisions about new relationships, at first we know nothing, then we assume things from the archives of the past about people. 

Everything rotates around that original avatar.

Capturing yourself well in photographs depends on the platforms you upload them too and the data entry around these images. People recognise photo's that match over the world wide web. This is a great tip when broadening your online horizons.

Social Media is similar to human sciences. And like birds migrate together, so do humans online.

In Sociology we learn about human behaviors and demographics. Some people hang back who have nostalgic or financial interests in online platforms. Communications only mean something when your credibility of what you say fits the image of avatar photograph used. There are many ways you can use fashion to brand yourself.

Men have different criteria than women to excite friends taste buds on first associations. Men still wear formal clothing in central areas of the world, men nearer the equator wear loose clothing because it is much hotter.

Women make very quick decisions about nice photographs. One secret we all understand is reciprocity.

One story told leads the way communications go back and fourth.

The Andromeda Strain

This post is something ringing around my head and I want to see where it goes. Part of me thinks maybe there is a film called The Andromeda Strain though I may be mistaken.
 
Imagine if you will the fractal shapes discovered in the seventies. Your sure to remember, its the one with the coil nosed elephants, see horses and vegetable shaped universe. The fractal numbers divided by themselves that goes on and on like the universe. Some say it is gods signature of the universe. You key in the coordinates on a computer, turn on an axis and away you go.
 
Understanding the origin of numbers might prove something, though mathematicians over the centuries have come up with differing versions of mans entire history. This continues today as we see remake after remake in cinemas of films with men and apes battling it out between one another. Don't worry the Andromeda Strain will be nothing like Planet of the Apes or King Kong, more like Quatermass and the forty thieves.
 
Religious groups own ideas about where mathematics first popped up into us as numbers. China was the first to create the abacus, a counting device so it may have been them. 

The British during the World War II invented a decoding device that descrambled numbers so I sure it was not us. 

Americans were taking iowasca and drinking small glasses of whisky so it cannot of been them. 

Other more Christian groups tried to pin it on early scholar Solomon, who as god intended was given keys to kingdoms. 

Imagine this the factal pattern is an exact map of the universe seen from gods desk angle.

He may have even used a feather to scribe it all out. Although the nib would have had to been finer than humans could possibly ever understand. Hence The Andromeda Strain, it started out as writers cramp from A Beautiful Mind like God's, in some place like Oxford University.
 
Pirates loved maps and created unusual teams of people who could stand gruelling journeys across continents. They did not all get along, some would have to walk the plank and the captain was really important. You may recognise another consumer catchphrase: 'Fresh from the captains table' which again alludes to the fingers. It's always been hard for writers. Monks took generations to draw books in fancy colours and use posh ores and minerals to document blurbs for kings and landowners.
 
Of course once we visited the moon, no one actually owns the moon. The flag is another visual stamp reccorded way beyond the printing press, well not long after considering the short amount of period we have been here. And how come diplodocus and T Rex have never shown up in fractals. Perhaps dinosaurs stumbled upon gods numbers and that's why they might have been taken outside and taught a lesson or two. And perhaps that's why some dinosaurs as we know them today only eat vegtables. The ones that did well were meat eaters, or perhaps the other way around. Either way it must have been a bigger strain for them thinking this way, since even though they taller their brains are thought to have been smaller. Archeaologists have looked at bones, measured craniums and come up with allsorts of conclusions. Elephants with big tusks existed during the dinosaur and ice age era. The hair helped them survive I assume which is why god signed them into fractals. Seahorses could unicycle through the ocean on one tail which again was an entertaining thought. Kids at school from an early age are taught to draw seahorses becuase they are easy to draw, less arms and legs compared to humans. Also we are supposed to be the same on one side as the other. If you put a mirror on half our face however we can appear more chubby and the reflection can be difficult to see, it puts strains on all our eyes. Which brings be onto the next part of The Andromeda Strain, the one on the eyes, I just thought about that. So we have strains in allsorts of places.
 
So what do we know about The Andromeda? I think it is mentioned in an early episode of Star Trek so it must be real because Gene Rodenberry really knew his onions. I also in the seventies did a good job on telly with puppets: Thunderbirds, Joe 90 and Aqua Marina. If we going to make a film about all this you may want to consider puppets instead of cgi since the fractal shapes are real. Like Gene Rodenberry Mathematicians must of known there onions too. The layers of 10 numbers peeled away reveal all sorts of stuff.
 
So lets include parallel universes. Like language we can't make language neutured. There is a masculine and feminine way of explaining things. Two gendered universes although infinite still need a place to stick things or have things stuck in them. Can you imagine the strain of two universes mating, acting out out of a desire to leaves legacies?
 

Our Own Pyramid Chambers

Since the dawn of light our fellows have crushed grapes. In the palms of our own clasped minds we've held Pyramids in high regard and masses believe them Pyramid Chambers were hospitable places to accomodate royalty as the brains of society. This as we know is not true. What we do know about these triangular shaped buildings is far more grueling than the luxuious ones we once thought. 

The Brotherhood of the Snake based in US had other ideas. They believed the pyramid chambers were instruments of initiation. The exact time of initiation is not known although three days or 72 hours has been suggested by these snakes as ample time to inititiate somebody.

The great thing about a pyramid is its abscences of light. People would feel lost in them and if  they survived this solitary confinement, all would be well. But many did'nt though.

You can imagine how lost someone might feel up there all alone. So why would anyone want to go through such grueling exercises? Especially after such hard labour the locals and people from neighbouring villages went through helping out there.

The Valley of the Shadows talks about a long dark tunnel and a decision that has to be made. Uou can see evidence everywhere. Pyramids have long elongated tunnels leading to chambers with pottery, gold, beetles and all sorts of other goodies.

Media Studies Presentation

History of Media
In this YouTube video you get to watch a short media studies presentation made back in 2009. This was around the same time I was on my last academic year of university. I studied English Language & Media Studies. I wanted to share the video because it covers all types of media, the dates they began, when they became mainstream and the effects media had, then and now on participants.

From Morse code to moving pictures the telegraph wire evolves. The sounds that today are nostalgic and the reasons why radio and live music on television became equally popular. The camera gave artists a day of and captured quickly moments in history that should be forgotten but will never be so.

Exit EU Variables: The Pros & Cons

The EU ( European Union) was created a few years ago in support of the new currency called the Euro.         Before Europe went with one world currency to fix interest rates America was considering a similar thing.        President Obama (Potus) at the beginning of his reign over America made sure the Almero did not come to pass. 
Eight years later we are receiving visits here in the UK by the Potus American Hawaiian Prime Minister.

     This Friday Potus and Prime Minister David Cameron will link up and discuss the state of the UK Union Address. 
     The news about these sorts of conversations are coming in live. Late last night I heard Obama's fleet of helicopters fly over Tottenham perhaps to see where Adele the musician was brought up. Either that or they checking me out.

     Britain is not the only country in talks with President Obama. As he comes to the end of his Presidency this recent tour of duty is more than just about Britain not wanting to support a one world currency, Greece and Iceland also want out. Turkey has said to be still on the fence about things.
     Reportedly this week reports come in about statements made by town mayors who have been sizing up the recent campaigns. Do we get behind a failing state or one that is about to end or start thinking about how to save the pennies. Arguably that statement has already been made for us, the pot of money is now all but empty.

     Exit strategies are nothing new and everybody knows how these things end up. The promises made in Egypt to neighbouring countries including Europe has decreased the true value of Europe's extravagance.

     Countries outside of the EU like the ones who used to be in the Warsall Pack have very low currencies compared to the rest of the rising economies. Because of this more people travel there to see the sites and because local residents cannot afford to leave the country the economy does well. 

Wages are low but they do not live in a sweat shop or dictatorship. 

They have low overheads and no one over them asking for monthly payments that mean nothing to the all seeing eye.
