Group Abstract The contemporary world continuously overwhelms us with reasons to seek escape from, but it also offers us newer, easier means of escaping. We are now able to, with the help of technology, distract not our mind alone, but our senses and perception from the ever changing reality. The concept of escapism does not always refer to an individual mind departing from the unpleasantries of reality alone. This atlas attempts to study the various perspectives on the different dimensions of escapism, not only individually, but also collectively while exploring influences under specific topics that may cause us to seek escape. Through exploring the topic of creators and spectators, we understand better how people and society position themselves within the space of interactive media. The different views of escapism within this atlas may define escapism as the departure from the physical world, where we are bound by reality; to a space where we are given a sense of ownership, belonging and control. It is also the idea of freedom from the boundaries of norms imposed by the familiar that each of us possess. When brought together, the collective manifests a new reality that fulfills our yearning in the most unexpected way. Even though the future predictions of escapism are also about humans escaping from our boxes of possibility and evolving both body and technology over time, it could also be a break out from the problems in the physical world while using social media as a comfort space. The act of escaping may also promote negative experiences such as inadequacy of life or physical appearance. However, escapism can also be seen as a transition from tiresome routines into an imagination to create satisfaction in our life.

Moreover escapism, especially during the time of a pandemic which limits physical interactions, is the distraction of ourselves from reality and the feeding of our thoughts with what we want to believe. Additionally, escapism can also be defined by the ability to take yourself away from your current consciousness and allow your subconscious mind to take control of your innovations. The most extreme form of escapism is the departure from the mundane by diverting through the mind to an imaginary world. Escapism allows us to differentiate the perspectives of escaping through our own means; with the availability of technology and social media, we are able to interpret and analyse our own definition of what ‘Escapism’ is and what role it plays in our daily lives. There is no absolute definition to escapism and this atlas attempts to explore the possibilities of how escapism can be interpreted.

Escape of the People A Guide to Modern Forms of Escapism Darapon Chaibal (Manao)

Are you feeling too comfortable in your home right now? You have been locked up in your home for a while now, and it’s starting to feel like a prison. But this is your home, the place you are most comfortable in! Why would you want to go anywhere else? You still wish you can go out, but where? Surely not another comfortable place? How about somewhere complete opposite, the unhomely? Do you know that you are longing for the jaw of the unhomely? And it’s not only you who feel like this; millions of people longed to venture out to the outside world, far away from what they are bounded to for the past two years. And this black smart phone screen that has been your only window of escape; do you know that it could be used to channel your intention and rally people around this common cause? In fact, it had happened; people had patchworked their effort together for the sake of escapism before. This is the Escape of the People; your guide to modern forms of escapism! Escapism 7

Abstract The human race is now on lockdown. We are bounded by enforced quarantines and social isolation in which we call homes. The longer these rules are imposed on us, the more we long to escape to the outside world. This is a shared feeling, a relatable need for all of us. Physically, there is no escape. The only form of acceptable escape is online. We consume media to escape reality, but there are certain contents on social media that not only make us want to consume, but also to contribute and add more to the original narrative. This shared purpose will be referred as “Collective Escapism”. Tiktok chain duet, Creepypasta, and Specific music edit community are case studies selected to illustrated this concept. Collectivism has always been an important part of humanity. Our collectives are our identity, and when under special circumstances, our collectives could effect our way of thinking and acting so much that our individual logic is taken over. If this longing for the outside world continues, becoming more and more powerful as time passes, a strong collective would eventually be formed. “The outside world” refers to places of the uncanny, the unheimlich--the opposite of homely places. Uncanniness emerges when the boundary between fantasy and reality is blurred, the familiar overlaps with the strange. It is the horror born when something that we have always thought to be alien suddenly exists in our known reality. Uncanniness could be created through a specifically designed environment and space. In this project, I focus on researching “uncanny architecture”, leading up to its association with Brutalism, the style of architecture that has been condemned as unfriendly and ugly. This leads to my design proposal: creation of a virtual or physical space that’s designed from our collective need to escape to the uncanny, and foster even stronger collectivism.

COLECTIVISM +SOCIAL MEDIA

Collectivism is the principle of orientation in the group. The self-identity is directly related to a group or groups of reference, thriving by being sensitive to group harmony. In collective cultures they also believe that Broadcasting is not a conversation, which require listening, processing information and responding. And that in social media, unless you are a broadcaster, it should be about quality conversations and meaningful engagement.

However, the “social” in social media doesn’t translate into it being a place of collectivism. Looking at the comparative values between Individualism and Collectivism and we can see which principle prevails on the internet, especially in our westernized world where individualism is often preferred.

According to Venkatesh Rao--an Indian-American author and consultant-and his commentary on the soul of social media, “The media are “social” not because they enable sociability, harmony and World Peace, but because people are the medium. You don’t connect to people through the medium. The people are the medium to connect you to value. The technology itself is just the material that allows humans to act like a connective medium.”

POPCAT .CLICK

Some activities on the internet, however, could facilitate a temporary collaboration, and by extent, foster a temporary collective mindset in the usually individualistic culture of social media users, creating a widespread social phenomenon. The most recent one has to be our brief assemble to fight for the most clicks on POPCAT, where you can go on popcat. click and tap away on the cat Oatmeal and help your country win. After analyzing the situation, I’ve found various factors that affected its virality and its ability to immediately form nationalism-based collective action.

First, I considered the context; Popcat click emerged in the middle of the pandemic where a lot of people does not yet return to normality. Some countries (like Thailand) are still in lockdown because of the the government’s regulations. Not only that, but this period of time is also not long after the Olympic games ended, so nationalism is still somewhat fresh on our minds, fueling our effort to fight for our nations.

The website itself is also easily accessible, with a simple way to participate in, with unlimited chances. It also helps that the cat image itself had been circulating on the internet long before this, very well-known and loved. Moreover, the website also automatically identifies you based on your geographical location. Its virality was the result from its simple premises that are easy to understand and its recordability for further posting and sharing. Other than its Olympics context and automatic way of identifying you with a country, the competitive and nationalistic mood was also powered by the easy-to-access leadership board that lists countries and their click counts in real-time.

Self-Concept

Escape of the People

Existential Identity

IDENTITY VS THE COLLECTIVE

Before we have identity, we have self-concept. Self-concept, according to a British social psychologist John Turner, is a term used to refer to how someone thinks, perceives, or evaluates themselves.

It consists of two parts, our existential identity, and our social identity. Existential Identity is the conscious recognition of the self as a unique identity. It is the awareness with oneself as a separate individual. We have existential identity since we become self-aware, and that starts since we are very young, a baby around 1-2 months old is already self-aware.

Social Identity

What I want to focus on, however, is our social identity.

Escapism 17

IDENTITY VS THE COLLECTIVE

SOCIAL IDENTITY

Our various identities came from our roles in those group and our group memberships. If defined from a society’s perspective; social identity refers to the set of characteristics by which a person is definitively recognizable or known by the society in which they live.

Escape of the People

According to Sheldon Stryker, an American sociologist, “Society shapes self shapes social behavior...The various identities that comprise the self exist in a hierarchy of salience”. This means that an individual is intertwined with the network of society since birth. Later in life, they would be consisted with many identities that could be utiltized and realized based on their importance according to that individual.

Another way to define social identity is “Social identity is a person’s sense of who they are based on their group membership(s)”. This definition looks at social identity as perceived by the individual.

Social identity theory was developed to explain how individuals create and define their place in society. According to the social identity theory, three psychological processes are central in that regard: social categorization, social comparison, and social identification.

Social categorization refers to the tendency of people to perceive themselves and others in terms of particular social categories—that is, as relatively interchangeable group members instead of as separate and unique individuals.

Social identification is when you turn around and ask yourself who you are. People’s general sense of who they are and how they relate to others is typically implicated in the way they view other individuals and groups around them. After that it’s Social comparison which is the process by which people determine the relative value or social standing of a particular group and its members. When social categorisation and identification are completed, we have two distinct groups of people in our minds; the one who are categorized the same way as us and satisfied us are immediately “Us”, or the in-group. And the people who aren’t and whose values dissatisfied us are “the other”, or the out-group.

Escapism 19

Social identities are most influential when individuals consider membership in a particular group to be central to their self-concept and they feel strong emotional ties to the group. The more we identify with the group, the more this group will define our personality. Like a person being a football fans often are loud and cheerful, while book club goers might be more quiet, reserved and intellectual

Escape of the People

Groups also provide a variety of means for maintaining and enhancing a sense of self-worth, as our assessment of the quality of groups we belong to influences our collective self-esteem (Crocker & Luhtanen, 1990). If our self-esteem is shaken by a personal setback, we can focus on our group’s success and prestige. In addition, by comparing our group to other groups, we frequently discover that we are members of the better group, and so can take pride in our superiority. By denigrating other groups, we elevate both our personal and our collective self-esteem BLM Movement and its success had empowered many African Americans.

Escapism 21

IDENTITY VS THE COLLECTIVE

SOCIAL IDENTITY THREATS After the research, I have established that we all already have identities that derived from some collective groups. Therefore, we are all susceptible to our social identities. They could influence us to such an extreme that it takes over our decision making process and actions, and in turn, determine how we or others identify ourselves.

Our social identity could take over our lives and logic if there are social identity threats The following are the various types of social identity threats:

Escape of the People

Group-Status Threat This threat occurs when the perceived competence of the group is devalued, such as when the moral behaviour of their group is called into question. This is sometimes experienced even by group members who can in no way be held personally accountable for their group’s behaviour, such as when citizens of a certain country may feel guilt or shame for crimes committed by their country long before they were born.

GroupDistinctiveness This occurs when individuals are treated as group members at times when they would prefer not to be, such as the complicated situation of Taiwaneses kept being identified as Chineses repeatedly, even though they would demand to identify with a separated nationality.

GroupDistinctiveness Group members can also experience social identity threat when they think that their group is not sufficiently acknowledged as a separate entity with unique characteristics. This is called a group-distinctiveness threat which is experienced when different groups of people are included in larger, more inclusive groups, nations, or organizations, such as members of linguistic minorities who strive for political autonomy.

GroupDistinctiveness This occurs when individuals fail to gain acceptance and inclusion in the groups of which they consider themselves members, such as when trans women were not except as one of the women, even though they vocally identified as one.

Escapism 23

Conformity in Cultures

Bond and Smith found that cultural values were indeed related to conformity: people in collectivist cultures displayed more conformity than did people in individualist cultures. Although the interpretation of those results is not completely clear, it is plausible that collectivists conform more than individualists because they give greater weight to collective goals and are more concerned about how other people view their behaviour and are affected by it.

IDENTITY VS THE COLLECTIVE

CONFORMITY

AS A RESPONSE TO SOCIAL IDENTITY THREATS

Escape of the People

An individual might respond to a social identity threat differently and vary in the extremity according to their emotional attachment.

Conformity is the process where people change their beliefs, attitudes, actions, or perceptions to more closely match those held by groups to which they belong or want to belong or by groups whose approval they desire.

There are two categories of conformity: public agreement (compliance) and private agreement (acceptance). compliance refers to overt behavioral change in the direction of that norm, whereas acceptance refers to covert attitudinal or perceptual change.

There are two influences in conformity:

Informational Influence

Some beliefs about the world can be verified by using objective tests; others cannot be verified by using objective standards and hence must be verified by using social tests, namely comparing one’s beliefs to those of other people whose judgment one respects. If those others agree with one’s beliefs, one gains confidence in them; if they disagree, one loses confidence. Because disagreement is disturbing, people are motivated to eliminate it, and one way to do so is to conform to group norms. People sometimes conform to groups because they are uncertain about the correctness of their beliefs and believe the group is more likely to be correct than they are. People also exhibit more conformity when they are working on ambiguous tasks than on unambiguous tasks. In addition, they conform more when they have doubts about their own task competence and when they think other group members are highly competent in the task.

Informational Influence

People sometimes conform to groups because they are motivated to be liked (or at least not disliked) and believe that other members will feel more kindly toward them if they conform to rather than deviate from group norms. In general, normative influence produces public compliance but not private acceptance.

Another factor that increases normative influence is surveillance by other group members. People who are concerned about others’ evaluations ought to conform more when their behaviour is public than when it is private.

Escapism 25

IDENTITY VS THE COLLECTIVE

DEINDIVIDUATION RESPONSE TO SOCIAL IDENTITY THREATS

Escape of the People

Deindividuation, phenomenon in which people engage in seemingly impulsive, deviant, and sometimes violent acts in situations in which they believe they cannot be personally identified. Some deindividuated situations can reduce accountability, because people who are hidden within a group cannot be easily traced or blamed for their actions. Thus, the effects of deindividuation are sometimes viewed as socially undesirable (e.g., rioting).

Sha Res

However, research has shown that deindividuation also strengthens adherence to group norms. Sometimes those norms conflict with the norms of society at large, but they are not always negative. For example, you can engage in letting loose on the dance floor with a crowd, or volunteer in a rescue organization.

Altered state of consciousness

Novel Situations

In the 1960s and ’70s the American psychologist Philip Zimbardo investigated the variables that lead to deindividuation Some of the possible factors are anonymity; shared, diffused, or abandoned responsibility; altered temporal perspective (so that the individual focuses more on the here and now than on the past or present); physiological arousal; sensory overload; novel or unstructured situations; and altered states of consciousness (such as those brought about by the use of alcohol or drugs). He also claimed that those factors and others act to minimize self-observation and evaluation, reduce concern for social evaluation, and weaken controls based on feelings of guilt, shame, fear, and commitment.

After establishing the concept of collectivism and its role on the internet, I want to focus more on the collective activities that would inspire creative inputs from audience and create in new content.

Escapism 29

Escape of the People Collective Escapist Media Consumption Behaviour

General Media Consumption Behaviour

The case study selection of collective activities followed this criteria: A content has to inspire contribution. The original narrative of a content is reconstructed every time there is an individual participation and creative contribution. The result is a new content, created by the collective. This content would help the collective group members escape reality through humor, or fantasy; as it was the purpose of the collective group. This social phenomenon would be called “collective escapism” in this project.

TIKTOK DUET CHAINS My first case study is the tiktok trend called tiktok duet chain, which got started because of the feature on tiktok called duet, a collaboration tool which users could use to add their own clips to an already posted videos and have them played simultaneously.

The original clips always have its own completed story, with no conscious intention to ask for continuing narratives, but because users see potential in more creative input, these clips become viral and attract people who want to add a little humor or just generally fleshed the story out some more. They add their clips on top of the original clips and then one another’s, and because of tiktok ability to play a lot of clips simultaneously, these chains are often in a form of enormous video collages, and the more viral it gets, the bigger it becomes.

The added effect of tiktok duet ability to “patchwork” coupled with camera angles help making them even more whimsical

MARCUS DIPAOLA AND HIS GIRLFRIEND One of the most viral tiktok duet chains is the one started by Marcus Dipaola, who posted a clip introducing the audience to his girlfriend, but because of weird camera angle, coupled with the forceful way he talked and the seemingly uncomfortable expression on his girlfriend’s face sitting on his lap, people started to poke fun and the first user added a hand to make it seems like he is pointing a fake gun toy at his girlfriend, suggesting he’s holding her hostage (thus the reason she seemed stressed). Others start patching clips on top of one another to fill in the whole story from an FBI agent knocking at the door to the president broadcasting his grievance at the situation.

I think it’s really interesting how tiktok helps facilitate something similar to flash mobs or spontaneous performances, which happen essentially because, other than showcasing their talents, we need to create an anomaly in boring everyday life, and with this “mob mentality”, bring everyone in the area some momentous wonderment and happiness. Through tiktok, we take a break from our normal lives by joining in on something completely unexpected and unplanned though the finish results of our collective effort are often cinematic masterpieces.

CASE STUDY #2

CREEPYPASTA My second case study is Creepypasta

Creepypasta are horror stories that get passed around on the internet. Usually, they are told from first-person perspective so that they sound real, and they have enough realistic elements to confuse the audience about their fakeness. Successful ones often inspire others to write more or make adaptations for the already posted ones.

Creepypasta are similar to urban legends, but because our urban space is shifting towards virtual reality via social media, creepypasta became the new urban legends.

For us, a lot of the allure of creepypasta as a genre comes from how interactive it is...a lot of that interaction comes from the fact that creepypasta is so much about the dynamics of its communities. In fact, the whole thing has its roots in people just sharing content with each other.

EVER DREAM OF THIS MAN? This is especially important in the creepypasta “Ever dream of this man?” in which the appeal of the story was based wholly on the sheer amount of interaction between people. “Ever dream of this man?” was a creepypasta that emerged from ThisMan.org, who was supposedly collecting sightings of the man in the picture in dreams or walking pass that were reported by a wide range of people over the years. The interaction with the story even bled in real world when wanted posters with the face of This Man starts popping up at various places around the world.

The key point that I focused on was a good meme’s easy alterability. Good memes are to be used in response to various circumstances. A meme’s fluidity to be in and fit in a context is a result from user’s creativity to reappropriate it to every new situation.

CASE STUDY #3

SPECIFIC MUSIC EDITS For my last case study, I dived into the quieter, more secluded side of the internet and its community of specific music edits.

Specific music edits is the process of choosing a song and making it fit into a specific scenario by making edits, distortion and adding sound effects to make it include the ambience you would hear if you were really in that place. It could be a scenario of something ordinary like driving through the rain, nostalgic like listening to grandma’s favorite song in her bedroom, or completely fictional like if you were cinderella dancing through the castle. But they all have the same ability to transport listeners directly into that world through carefully placed surrounding noises and effects that reflect those places’ spatial qualities.

Escapism 55

l0user One of the most popular channel who is an expert in this is channel l0user. They have been posting up to 62 music edits since 2018 with their most popular video amassing 3.2 million views.

Tonight you belong to me but you’re alone in an abandoned mall Gymnopédie No. 1 but your depressed neighbor don’t stop playing that song for an hour in a row

Escape of the People

What I’ve found interesting is that The title and description of these edits are often kept vague, leaving some to the listener’s imagination to fill in the blanks with their own stories. And they often leave comments about their interpretations and little anecdotes narrating the music. These attract and kickstart their own little writing community, Unintentionally create safe, hidden spots to freely run with their creativity.

According to the posts on l0user’s channel community page, their audience are often people who feel sad and lonely, visit their channel to be transported from their own lives, and the channel encouraged communication and sharing of ideas, and they even created a discord server for their listeners to talk.

Other than l0user, other channels had also tried their hands at creating music edits, contributing many new ideas and narratives to the community.

And other than on youtube, I’ve founded the specific music edits community on tumblr as well.

UNCANNINESS IN ART + DESIGN

In the horror genre, a lot of creators relies on “jumpscares” for sudden shock value. We have a tendency to view “the other”, something completely alien, as horrifying and dangerous, which evokes our animalistic fight or flight response. But what about something that doesn’t immediately present itself as danger, but could still creep us out. That is uncanniness; terror that’s generated from something familiar to us.

Escapism 61

Uncanny means something that is strangely familiar. The word uncanny was brought up in the essay by Sigmund Freud, an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis. In Freud native language, the word “uncanny” is “unheimlich” which is the opposite of “heimlich” which means homeliness, something private, secured, and familiar, and unheimlich the opposite, something foreign and not from the home.

However, its second definition of unheimlich is something that is hidden in the dark inside the home, and was never meant to come to light. In his essay, Freud’s general thesis was that there is some beliefs that we carry with us since we were children, but because of the process of maturation, we become more rational, thus covering these childish fantasies up, repressing them. But when we are faced with the situation that fantasy overlaps with reality, something that makes us question our logic, make us doubt that our adult selves actually know better than our child selves, we become horrified.

UNCANNY IN ART+DESIGN In art and design, the uncanny effect hasn’t been explored much yet, except through the making of horror film. In my research I’ve found a few examples from various types of art that evoke a sense of uncanniness, in all of them, familiar things are merged together with fantasy in a realistic context.

Music Everywhere at the End of Time

“Everywhere at the End of Time” is an 6-hour long album produced by the artist that goes by the name “the caretaker”, in which he tell a story of a mind suffering from alrzimer, slowly deteriorating and losing comprehension and familiarity of everything around it. The tracks on the album are old songs that sound like they belong in the 40s and 50s, tracks that in would normally evoke nostalgia, but they were edited and then heavily distorted, resulting in an uncanny listening experience.

Literature House of Leaves

“House of Leaves” is a novel written by Mark Z. Danielewski. When one went into this story based on reviews, they would expect horror stories of the usual style. Howveer, House of Leaves is actually just a man’s journal, but throughout the story, the man gradually spiral into insanity and it was told through artistically weird layouts and unexpected texts.

Settings Blam! and Naissancee

The architectures found in the setting of “Blam!” a Japanese science fiction manga series written and illustrated by Tsutomu Nihei, and a video game largely inspired by him “Naissancee”, where the character was set to wander around in this foreign mass of architecture. The architecture here is a mess of elements and features that looks familiar, but doesn’t look functional to humans, sometimes too small for a person to fit in or too large to climb or comprehend as a whole.

Architecture Liminal Space

The series of photos and videos have been circulating on the internet recently, where photos of familiar, ordinary places are shot without sign of a person in them. They are called Liminal Space. The word liminal actually means physical spaces that, due to their function, are transitional - such as hallways, parking lots, and rest stops. These photos look uncanny because while the spaces are designed to be used, to be filled with people coming and going, in these photos, they are completely abandoned. The unsettling music often put in the background of one of these videos also enhances the mood significantly.

Architecture Evil Buildings

This trend of fascination and collection of pictures of “evil-looking buildings” Because of their harsh aesthetic, from sharp corners to cold concrete material in the style that’s not human-friendly, all of these clash strangely with the way they present themselves as functional, “normal” buildings, resulting in these architectures unsettling us. In continuation, I’ve determined that those buildings were often heavily influenced by Brutalism, a style of architecture in trend from around the beginning of the 50s to the early 80s. Through analysing its designs, its origin, I have determined reasons why Brutalist architecture often look “inhuman” and by extent “uncanny” to be near.

REASONS WHY BRUTALISM WAS GREAT In my opinion, Le Corbusier’s design of the Unite D’Habitation was a perfect solution to the problem at that time.

After 10 years of interrupted practice from World War II, it is believed that the Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier’s love for concrete may have started the Brutalist Movement. His project called the Unite d’Habitation in Marseilles was one of the avante garde building spearheading the movement.

Completed in 1952 and created as housing for the working class, Le Corbusier’s design called for a giant reinforced concrete framework fit with modular apartments” This enormous “apartment complex” could house up to 1600 people

Escape of the People

Housing problems is an accumulating problem resulting from World War II, when all housing construction virtually halted in order for countries’ workforces to focus on war effort. After the war ended, When soldiers and war factory workers began to return home, there was no institution big enough to manage and house all of them in a permanent and satisfactory condition of living. The Blitz Children sitting outside the bomb-damaged remains of their home in the suburbs of London. 1940., New Times Paris Bureau Collection/USIA/NARA Trailer village. Due to students returning from the World War II battlefields to continue studying, neither fraternities nor dormitories of University of Idaho could handle the influx. 150 trailers and over 200 temporary buildings were placed as temporary settlements. 1951., Historical Photograph Collection, University of Idaho Library.

Brutalism was generally characterised by its rough, unfinished surfaces, unusual shapes, heavy-looking materials, straight lines, and small windows. Modular elements were often used to form masses representing specific functional zones, grouped into a unified whole.

Poured concrete has been used because of its cheapness and plentifulness. Which was also the origin of its name derived from the word “Béton brut” s a French term that translates literally to “raw concrete”

The heavy and enclosed building with small windows and enveloped with limited glazing made it easier for climate control, which was economically sensible and practical for government-funded projects of enormous scale.

Brutalism became associated with the “socially progressive” and supporters of brutalist architecture saw them as bold monuments of egalitarianism and democracy. In a way, Brutalism is one of the styles under Modernist architecture, used to address and reject the use of excessive ornamentation in classical architecture, as it was influenced by all of these post-war problems and the modernist idea that rational design could produce the best architecture.

Escapism 71

Escape of the People

A lot of brutalism architecture also had its basis on being inspired by its surrounding culture and environment, translating through its form. Gerhard Kallman, a german-american architect who is also a supporter of brutalism had said, “We have reacted against an architecture that is absolute, uninvolved, and abstract. We have moved towards an architecture that is specific and concrete, involving itself with the social and geographic context…Rather than an uncommitted abstract structure that could be any place…without identity or presence.”

Brutalism became synonymous with the socially progressive housing solutions that architects and town planners promoted as modern ‘streets in the sky’. With an ethos of ‘social utopianism’, together with the influence of constructivist architecture, it became increasingly widespread across European communist countries such as the Soviet Union, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, and Czechoslovakia.

WHY IS BRUTALISM SO UGLY?

Heading into the 1980s, Brutalism fell out of favor. Ironically, it had been criticised as unwelcoming and inhuman, contrary to its very original purpose. Michael Feely broke down the factors making up for Brutalist architecture cold and imposing presence.

1 NoTheOrnaments focus is on remov-

ing as much ornamentation as possible to shift the focus into the enomous concrete structures as priority. The resulting Brutalistic architecture often results in two extremeties--either aesthetically pleasing as a composite whole seen from a far away distance, or seen from closeby. However, when not seen through these two distances, the architecture can sometimes look confusing or incomprehensible visually. Use of 2 Excessive Concrete

The focus is on using the material concrete to be applied to the building as much as possible.

The final result would create a cold exterior aesthetic as well as a colder thermal mass due to the material property. Concrete us easily weathered and wears down poorly over time, leaving rainwater and dirt stains that is hard to remove. once inside the building, the concrete overwhelms the visitors as you are surrounded by an enormous, unnatural material that is cool and unconnected.

Showing Function through Form The focus is on showing the building’s function through form. Therefore, it is often design from outside in, thus not prioritizing on the user experience. when looking from the outside, the mass is often nonsensical and is often perceived as lumps of concrete portruding out.

4 Prescriptive Programmatic Use

The association of Brutalist style with various communist regimes-

never helped its image, but beyond that, even popular Brutalist examples (such as unite d’habitation in Marsaille) tended to involve a very prescriptive programmatic understanding of their use, which was then embedded in impossible-to-change concrete. Soli 5 Emphasizing darity through

its Massive Scale the focus on emphasizing its mass and solidarity through sheer size, resulting in a looming structure above the heads of the visitors, while some might felt in awe, the majority of us often felt uncomfortable and in danger. The overbearing presence brutalist architecture gave us was also a factor that make it the fitting symbol and backdrops of totalitarianism and films made about it

Escapism 75

UGLINESS + UNCANNINESS? But why would ugliness be associated with uncanniness? One explaination of the more dramatic and radical comment by Susanna Viljanen, in the thread that discussed the reason why Brutalism is so ugly:

“Ugliness is not only lack of beauty; ugliness is an entity of itself. Ugliness is a sign of threat, hostility and danger; it is a sign get the hell outta there and quickly! But if a human being cannot escape ugliness, he will soon develop symptoms of sickness. It is the same as constantly living in an environment surrounded by hostile animals, humans or forces of nature. Ugliness is a health hazard; it raises blood pressure, makes mood depressed and makes you susceptible on infections. also a stroke or infart(amongst many other heart & brain diseases), due to anxiety and stress”

Escapism 79

Abstract In the physical world, where our existence is bound by reality, we tend to seek escape to places where we are given a sense of ownership, belonging and control. Technology has allowed us to create places where we are given such privileges through the recreation of the physical world in the virtual space of various forms. In the realm of interactive media, customization and personalization grant us with great extent of control, not over the virtual environment alone, but also the many aspects of our identities within the virtual space as well as the connection to communities and other users. It also connects us to the environment in ways which disregards the inherent rules of reality, namely distances and time. This allows for the creation and ownership of spaces where we may deem personal to us, identities that we may deem very much ours and ultimately serve as an escape from reality and the surroundings of the physical world where we have little control over. This chapter attempts to explore the spatial qualities of the virtual world with a look on extreme ends the virtual space, the space of social media and the space of virtual realities. This chapter also explores how elements and aspects of the space can be adjusted to better suit our interests and give us a sense of ‘personalness’ and turning the virtual world where we can escape into. In the physical world, the personalness of space can be achieved through our interaction and adjustment to the elements in an environment to better suit our preferences, while the virtual space not only enhances our limit of these interactions with our surroundings, but also allow us to make adjustments that can influence our perception of the space, inclusivity and exclusivity of the space as well as our identities within the space.

Social media platforms allow us to present our identities as a collevtive information of self. This may include photographs, text descriptions of self, videos, or in most cases, a combination of all of them.

We are able to choose how much of our real selves are presented. We can interact and connect with people, assuming a persona, rendering our real selves anonymous.

The virtual space allows us to assume not only one persona, but multiple while navigating and interacting in different spaces.

The ‘virtually physical’ qualities, when adjusted, may change our perception of the environment, whether it be the adjustment to our virtual identities, or the virtual space we are in. Adjust the height or size of our avatar and our experience in the virtual world may be vastly different. Adjust the interface, or ‘feed’ of our social media platforms and the information we receive may be presented differently. Elements that we may call ‘style, fashion or aesthetics’ in the virtual space may be customized to represent an identity, whether that identity be a rather direct representation or ourselves or the spaces that we are in in the real world, or an abstraction of the physical and spatial qualities that we are bound to in reality. We may choose the aesthetics of our virtual avatars to closely resemble that of our real selves, or be an abstraction, an escape from our real physical appearances. Our adjustments to the elements and aesthetics in the virtuals space creates uniqueness to the space. It leaves behind an imprint of our interaction and our identity in the virtual space that we occupy which is personal to us, allowing us to potentially take ownership of the space. The adjustable perception of the virtual space, availability of self expression and the sense of ownership allows us to have a strong connection to the virtual world, and a sense that everything is personal to us.

The LGBTQ+ community plays an important rold in society. Currently, evey generation is debativg about the rights on gender equality. These basic human rights are only avaliable to limited spaces, in countries that have legal recognition. Basic social rights for the LGBTQ+ community such as marriage equality and domestic partnerships are still not widely accepted especially in countries such as Thailand. This chapter aims to intentify these issues both in the local and global context.

Escapism 121

Abstract Escapism is one of the most frequently reported motives for engaging to use social media. It is a complex phenomenon that involves specific motivations, cognitions, emotional states, media choices, media use periods, and short-term as well as long-term consequences. At present, the acceptance of gender diversity in Thailand is not yet widely accepted, and even if it is socially acceptable, there are still many conditions on gender diversity that Thailand will need to overcome in all aspects such as culturally, politically, socially, etc. Because of the limitation of physical safe spaces for the LGBTQ+ community, many are now choosing to express themselves in digital and social media spaces instead, acting as both viewer and content creators. Currently, Thailand does not have a marriage equality law that covers the fundamental rights that heterosexual couples recieve, including limitations in thinking and expressing themselves or their potential. In order to be more than express themselves there is also coming out for their rights. Coming out allows a person to develop as a whole person, gives them more authority, and makes it simpler for them to establish a positive self-image. Rather than hiding or lying about their identity, the person who comes out can express who they are and what matters to them with others. The basic human needs in today’s world may not be necessary for social media, especially LGBTQ+. We don’t need water or food, but it’s a sense of security to use social media that’s fundamentally important. Most of all, if social media can’t be a safe space for LGBTQ+ people, it will cause problems for people who are unable to express themselves or their thoughts in the real world where they can’t have any channels that they can be able to express themself, which may cause psychological problems in the future.

WHAT IS ESCAPISM ? Escapism is one of the most frequently reported motives for engaging to use social media. It is a complex phenomenon that involves specific motivations, cognitions, emotional states, media choices, media use periods, and short-term as well as long-term consequences.

WHAT DOES LGBTQ+ MEAN ? LGBTQ+ stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (or sometimes questioning), and others. The “plus” represents other sexual identities including pansexual and Two-Spirit. The first four letters of the acronym have been used since the 1990s, but in recent years there has been an increased awareness of the need to be inclusive of other sexual identities to offer better representation. The acronym is used to represent a diverse range of sexualities and gender-identities, referring to anyone who is transgender and/or same/similar gender attracted.

+ Plus

L (Lesbian): A lesbian is a woman/woman-aligned person who is attracted to only people of the same/similar gender. G (Gay): Gay is usually a term used to refer to men/men-aligned individuals who are only attracted to people of the same/similar gender. However, lesbians can also be referred to as gay. The use of the term gay became more popular during the 1970s. Today, bisexual and pansexual people sometimes use gay to casually refer to themselves when they talk about their similar gender attraction. B (Bisexual): Bisexual indicates an attraction to all genders. The recognition of bisexual individuals is important, since there have been periods when people who identify as bi have been misunderstood as being gay. Bisexuality has included transgender, binary and nonbinary individuals since the release of the “Bisexual Manifesto” in 1990. T (Transgender): Transgender is a term that indicates that a person’s gender identity is different from the gender associated with the sex they were assigned at birth. Q (Queer or Questioning): Though queer may be used by people as a specific identity, it is often considered an umbrella term for anyone who is non-cisgender or heterosexual. But it is also a slur. It should not be placed on all members of the community, and should only be used by cisgender and heterosexual individuals when referring to a person who explicitly identifies with it. Questioning refers to people who may be unsure of their sexual orientation and/or gender identity. + (Plus): The ‘plus’ is used to signify all of the gender identities and sexual orientations that are not specifically covered by the other five initials. An example is Two-Spirit, a pan-Indigenous American identity. Escapism 125

Both male and female same-sex sexual activity are legal in Thailand, but same-sex couples and households headed by same-sex couples are not eligible for the same legal protections available to opposite-sex couples. With the aforementioned factors, LGBTQ+ groups such as students, parents, or lgbtq+ have to come out and claim their rights.

Social Media ( A Safe Space for LGBTQ+)

Some users of social media are now relying on it as a “safe space,” or a place where they face no discrimination. They do not have to feel harassment for who they are as a person, or the things they go through. One of the most useful social media sites for this is Instagram. A lot of features that can be used to find what you’re looking for. Most of the time, teen minorities turn to social media when they have no support at home or at school. Instagram has become an especially good place to find support in the LGBT+ community. There are lots of LGBT accounts, and most of them are shown to be owned by teens or young adults aged 13-19. These accounts spread positivity for the community. The LGBT community is not the only community on social media. There are also accounts for mental health awareness, abuse support, and other issues. It is much easier to reach out online to people who won’t judge.

IS SOCIAL MEDIA REALLY SAFE ? The comments sections of social media and news outlets have become the new playground for online bullying. There are many toxic users on social media platforms who publish poisonous remarks or make toxic posts. On top of that, there is also violent or potentially dangerous content on social media. These group of people have disrupted the social media world and caused people to fear for using the media or online channels to express their thoughts or identity. In addition, toxic comments on social media can cause other users mental problems, whether it’s bullying or expressing negative attitudes towards other users on social media.

PREVENTION TACTICS In order to prevent yourself from negative comments or toxic content from social media. First, are you sharing your content in the right places? There are some platforms that harbour such people who are prone to providing toxic comments. Moreover, every social media platform has its own set of optional features that users can employ to protect themselves from predators.

HOW TO EMBRASE NEGATIVE CRITICISMS ?

Escape for the Oppressed

Have a plan in place to respond to negative social media comments : The best responses to social media criticisms usually originate long before the comment is actually posted. You should have a plan in place for responding to the various types of criticism you may face, from accusations of unfriendly employees to issues with your product. Know who needs to be involved in composing the response and following up on the situation. Admit fault when appropriate : Despite your best efforts, sometimes the criticisms leveled against you on social media will be accurate. No business made of fallible human beings can be perfect, after all. Saying “sorry” to your existing or potential customer in such cases isn’t a sign of weakness or a poor reflection on your business. On the contrary, most consumers appreciate companies that take responsibility.

“Whatever you do, good or bad, people always have something negative to say” -Mahevash-

Respond quickly but thoughtfully :

Keep emotions out of your response :

Many negative comments on social media stem from a customer who feels that your employees aren’t listening to them. Help combat that impression by responding quickly to any criticisms. Doing so also helps you take control of the conversation before it snowballs. You should still be thoughtful in your responses, however. Try to see it from the customer’s point of view.

It’s hard not to feel personally attacked when a customer leaves a negative comment on social media, particularly if you disagree with their assessment of the situation. However, keep your emotions in check when you reply. An angry—or even worse, obscenity-filled—response won’t make the negative commenter look bad, but it will affect the reputation of your business.

Understand how to handle social media trolls :

Take the conversation offline as soon as possible :

Of course, sometimes the criticisms leveled at your business are completely illegitimate. Social media platforms breed trolls who like nothing more than to cause trouble. Since interacting with such trolls only encourages them, your best bet if you are certain that a critical poster is a troll is to ignore them. Comment once to state that their claims are inaccurate and then go silent.

While it can be beneficial to your business’ image for prospective customers to see how you deal with criticism fairly and calmly, drawing out the conversation in a public forum gives it more visibility than you likely want.

CONTENT CREATOR AND VIEWER INFLUENCE - Hidden themselves from reality:

- Community:

In the real world, they may be treated badly by the people around them, in the social media world they can escape from this crowd and can also limit or consume content or content only what they are interested in.

There is a same group of people who have the same needs or interest in the same topic. (new community)

- Freedom :

- Come out for their right :

- Encourage:

In realistic world can not provide freedom as same as social media world

The benefit of using social media as one of their claims is that they can spread the news quickly and not only in small communities but also around the world. In addition, it can also campaign to claim rights that lgbtq+ groups should have deserve.

A space to encourage each other and use a positive attitude to make the world of social media a safe space.

- Expression :

- Space to educade :

- Identities:

People may be afraid of how others will look if we dress like this or that in the real world. But in the social media world, you can be completely yourself because you can limit the number of viewers of your content and be able to express your thoughts more freely than the real world.

At present, many social groups still do not understand and accept gender diversity as a result of not being properly educated. Social media channels can be an important means of educating people in society because in today’s world, most people are already using social media in their daily lives.

Allowed people to hide or create new identities for themselves, trully be themselves.

COME OUT Coming out allows a person to develop as a whole person, gives them more authority, and makes it simpler for them to establish a positive self-image. Rather than hiding or lying about their identity, the person who comes out can express who they are and what matters to them with others. Coming out removes the worry of being "found out" and allows the individual to avoid living a double life, which may be stressful and humiliating. Finally, being out allows you to connect with other lesbians, gays, and bisexuals, giving you a sense of belonging. The purpose of outlining some of the advantages and risks of coming out is not to persuade somebody to come out or not come out in any given situation. Rather, considering some of the probable implications of such a decision might help an individual clarify their decision by assisting them in determining the best moment to come out and prepare them for possible reactions.

Escape for the Oppressed

BENEFITS OF COMING OUT - Ability to live one’s life honestly. - Building self-esteem by being honest about oneself. - Developing closer, more genuine relationships with friends and

family.

RISKS OF COMING OUT - Not everyone will be understanding or accepting. - Family, friends, or coworkers may be shocked or confused, or even hostile. - Some relationships may be permanently changed. - An individual may experience harassment or discrimination. - One may be thrown out of their homes or lose financial support from their parents.

“COMING OUT IN PHYSICAL SPACE” To come out and claim your rights in the real world, you may need to muster a lot of courage because you will encounter a real face-to-face confrontation where you will be able to recognize your displeasure or neglect. Accept people from their facial expressions that will make you feel bad. In addition, you may be in danger of a mob of ill-wishers rioting in the city or by the government’s discontent for not enacting gender equality marriages. In the real world, your face may be recognized so it’s easy to be dangerous for you to track down.

“COMING OUT IN DIGITAL SPACE” Claims on social media you can get a lot more security than if you claim in the real world because you can create an account that doesn’t belong to you, which is difficult to follow up later. In addition, you can also choose a group of people who can see your content or deal with news or negative comments with the functions of each application.

101 GUIDE HOW TO COME OUT WITH A SENSE OF SECURITY?

Block anyone who bothers you

All social media sites allow you to block people who you don’t want accessing your account. It is not permanent and they won’t be notified. You may also have the option of muting someone so they don’t know you can no longer see their posts.

Recognise the fakes

Not everyone on social media will be who they say they are. There can be young people and adults who pretend to be someone else and could cause you harm. For example they may want to trick you into sharing private or personal information that they could use against you. It’s important that you never meet up with someone you don’t know, and that you always let an adult know where you are going and who you are meeting. There have been occasions where children are tricked into meeting adults who then cause them harm.

When is the best time to come out for your rights?

When you feel most prepared and safe because you will not regret what you have spoken since you have thought it through. However, you must also be prepared for the consequences of your decision to come out and assert your rights.

Hungary protest Budapest, Hungary — Rising anger over the policies of Hungary's right-wing government filled the streets of the country's capital on Saturday as thousands of LGBTQ supporters marched in the annual Budapest Pride parade. March organizers expected record crowds at the event, and called on participants to express their opposition to recent steps by populist Prime Minister Viktor Orban's government that critics say stigmatize sexual minorities in the Central European country.Budapest Pride spokesperson Jojo Majercsik said this year's march is not just a celebration and remembrance of the historical struggles of the LGBTQ movement but a protest against Orban's current policies targeting gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer people.“A lot of LGBTQ people are afraid and don’t feel like they have a place or a future in this country anymore,” Majercsik told The Associated Press.

Hong Kong protest In Hong Kong, there was a protest. In June 2019, a squabble erupted over the now-defunct extradition bill, which later morphed into broader calls for more democracy. Hundreds of thousands of people of all ages attended the protest, with many of them wearing masks to conceal their identities. More than 8000 persons have been apprehended by the government as a result of this crisis. However, as a result of the COVID-19 crisis, Hong Kong residents have turned to Animal Crossing as a welcome distraction in order to continue protesting, as Animal Crossing is an area free of political censorship. It's also incredibly safe for them because protesters don't have to put their identities in the avatar and are safe from being recognized their identities. Escapism 157

Chapter description My type of escapism is a prediction about human escape from their box of possibility and evolve both body and technology along with the time.

Escapism 165

Abstract How did we get to this point? What would our future be like? These are some of the questions that can be raised when our society has reached a point in technological advancement. As our human civilization progress, “ escapism” becomes a norm as more humans begin to reject the state of their own body. This act of escape can happen in both the physical world, but can be manifested in the digital world as well. In this chapter, titled “ the Futuristic Escape: An Escape into the Digital Reality”, the research aims to predict and ascertain what escapism might look like in the future, especially driven by the age of social media and other Virtual Reality technologies. This futuristic prediction is based on evidence of readily available technology in today’s society, current events that drive our society, and factors that are both based on realities and fictive imagination. These predictions come in both forms of descriptive writing and hand-sketch drawings which are inspired by everything around me- both in my physical and virtual presence. This prediction referred to not only the physical and digital change but the change in social norm and personal condition of mind set too such as status and phobia. The result that this project wants to achieve is to guide and make the preparation for our society to get used to the change and look forward to problems that might occur through this transition of time and find the solution of the problem before it even happened so that mankind can reach their full potential of a flawless evolution. I hope that this “Futuristic Escapism” topic will act like a guidebook of the future that explained all the possibilities of factors that are related to our daily life and finally answered all the questions in the first paragraph.

The phobia that I used as the example is the one that we related to the most at this lockdown situation nowadays. This phobia is called Agoraphobia which is a fear of open space. When a person live or stay at the same place for too long, that person will surely become fimiliar with the place and make it their safe space and will feel unsecure when they leave the place.

Chapter description We use social media as a mental comfort zone from problems we face in the real, physical world. However, social media is a two-edged sword. It can be use as a treatment for escape, but it can also be harmful to the user’s mental health.

Escapism 217

Abstract Escapism is the tendency to seek distraction and relief from unpleasant realities, especially through seeking entertainment or engaging in fantasy. In our modern world where social media is too-easily accessible, of relief and break from the problems we encounter in reality. Despite the fact that social media is used as a comfort zone, the act also adversely provides negative experiences such as the inadequacy regarding your life or physical appearance. This chapter on “Mental Escape” will describe the relationship between social media and mental health through looking at both its advantage and disadvantages. Through looking at example case studies referencing various social media platforms, I experimenting on creating my own expression of sadness and melancholy through the use of social media, aiming to understand the complexity which lies on understanding user consumption of posts and feeds. Besides digital media, another negative impact of social media is through our surrounding- both physical and digital surroundings. Architecture can become a mediator to communicate ideas of sadness and melancholy in many ways. Through acts of expressing emotions through design and atmosphere, architecture can be used as an extension to express our emotion. Lastly, this chapter also introduces users on how to create their own “sad” moving media through consideration of factors such as sound, speech, filters, etc.

Social media is used as a comfort zone which give user a break from the problems in the reality. Meanwhile, it may promote negative experiences such as inadequacy about your life or physical appearance. There are multiple studies showing that heavy social media usage can increased risk for depression, anxiety, loneliness, self-harm, and even suicidal thoughts.

Melancholic Depression Melancholy or melancholia is a severe form of depression, and it is now referred to as “melancholic depression.” The word “melancholia” is a Greek word used to describe the feeling of intense sadness and hopelessness. Melancholia usually comes with a feeling of pensive sadness, typically with no obvious cause. However, Melancholy has a distinct quality of mood that cannot be interpreted as severe depression. The ancient Greek doctors didn’t view sadness that way. They believed it was a dark fluid inside the body. According to their humoral system, the human body and soul were controlled by four fluids, known as humor, and their balance directly influenced a person’s health and temperament. Melancholia comes from “Melaina Kole”, the word for black bile, the humor believed having too much dark fluid inside the body cause sadness.

Emotional impact of the place Just the inhabitants have a bad environment and a negative mindset can cause dangerous mental illnesses. There’s a study that the environment can influence either positively or negatively a person’s mental well-being. A recent study showed how the idea of living in the midst of the climate crisis was affecting Greenlanders’ anxiety and depression levels. My point is The environment also influences the feeling of the residents.

The picture was taken in Berlin by photographer Andrew G. Fisher, who attempt to discover beauty in the ordinary and melancholic. These black-and-white images, that ranged from outmoded structures to abandoned warehouses, capture simple and symmetrical features while still providing a sense of poetry that seems to express the relationship between life and time.

SOUND

Major and Minor key

Chord Progression

The major key is present by nature in every note that is played. Therefore, it is interpreted as normal behavior, a happy day in our lives, ‘cause that’s what we expect to happen. The minor key is opposed to the major key and it’s perceived by us (without being aware) as if there was something wrong, hence sadness or restlessness.

A chord progression is a series of chords played in a sequence. When identifying chords within a progression, the main task is to find their harmonic functions within the key, which means to compare the chord to the tonic of the key.

ELEMENTS OF A SAD/ DEPRESSION VIDEO Mental Escape

SONG Most of the songs used in the depression video usually is a slow tempo and are not fully equipped with a lot of instruments mostly they use not more than 2 or 3 instruments. The reason behind that is if the song contains many instruments, people will have a lot of material that needed to be focused on. For example, if the song contains guitar, piano, drum, bass, and vocal, the listener can focus on the guitar or the piano or even the bass but not the whole song. On the other hand, if the song contains only vocals and guitar. It will be easy for people to focus on the tempo and melody of the song. Because of that, most of the sad songs will mostly come with few instruments. So people will focus on the impact that the writer wants to create. Slow tempo also makes people clearly hear the sad impaction that the writer created.

IMAGES A picture of a sad or depressed video can be a picture of any sort, a wall, an aesthetic picture of something. The condition is that the images should be in dark tones or black and white, have not more than one or two focus points.

MOVING MEDIA A video illustration of a sad or depressed video can be a video of some long road trip, yourself, or even a cartoon character talking. Actually it a can be any type of video. I not recommend using video that contains with fast movement because any quick action in the video may prevent the viewer from seeing the words we put in the cilp or didn’t listening to what we say because they may only be interested in the accompanying video clip.

ELEMENTS OF A SAD/ DEPRESSION VIDEO Text and word can use to convey sadness when the text is about feeling alone in the world, the problem that you face, or things that you can’t undo. Talking about sadness and negative feeling can be very broad. The story that is used can come from our own or other people’s suffering. Choice of word are very important when it’s come to story telling, in order to make people understand what you want to communicate. I assume that you can use any word or sentence that clearly describes what you want.

The (UN)Satisfaction of Escaping

THE (UN)SATISFACTION OF ESCAPING Sawanna Kularbwong (Yaya)

To escape from an unsatisfying environment and unpleasant experiences that we are facing in our daily life with our preferences and self-satisfaction to fulfill and enhance unorganized and chaotic living behaviors. Escapism 249

Abstract Nowadays, social distancing and self-isolation have been new behaviors that we have to follow since the COVID-19 outbreak affecting humans who are by nature social animals so it can be a difficult time for some people to stay in the same environment for a long period causing boredom and unsatisfactory life. We can say that from the isolation, many people have gained more levels of stress from the new way of living because of a huge differentiation in living and working systems. These systems include online learning, ineffective working online, a lot of distractions, and many health problems such as back pain, neck pain, and eye strain. No interaction with other people in the community leading to the lack of social skills. To escape from these feelings, we can start by changing the perspective of our living environment i.e. the physical components around us while trying to immerse ourselves in the surroundings. I try to explore and observe my living environment. What I have found are imperfections, unorganized, and unsatisfying elements without realizing them. Moreover, I try to absorb other people’s perspectives to see things from other points of view along with human preference through senses such as the alternative of colors, texture, smell, touch, sound, and perception to create gratification. At the same time, connected to online social media, which is becoming another significant way of communicating instead of meeting in person, to make our life become more convenient and faster. Since we are living in an era where technology has evolved by leaps and bounds and social media has almost become one of the significant factors for human wants to make our daily life much more convenient. Without noticing, Technology has become more influential in our lives. Especially, in this current situation that digital media and devices have become a need for working and learning. As I observed and used social media every day, I found out that the online media and interface can let us immerse in and create our satisfaction through preference and organization in an online community.

The particular two behaviors that I am interested and trying to immerse in are the behavior of people who facing obsessive-compulsive disorder and people who are perfectionist. The term of obsessive-complusive disorder is often misunderstood mental illness characterized by thoughts and behaviors that can make it tough for people to go about their day. It can centainly be driven by perfectionism, but it is not the same Escapism 257

obsessive compulsive disorder WHAT IS OCD??

RITUALISTIC BEHAVIORS

OBSESSIVE BEHAVIOR

HOW IT IMPACT THEIR DAILY LIFE

OCD stands for obsessive compulsive disorder, is a disorder in which people have recurring, unwanted thoughts urge or image that are intrusive and cause distress or anxiety, ideas or sensations (obsessions) that make them feel driven to do something repetitively (compulsions).

- Fear of getting contaminated by people or the environment - Disturbing sexual thoughts or images -Fear of blurting out obscenities or insults - Extreme concern with order, symmetry, or precision - Recurrent intrusive thoughts of sounds, images, words, or numbers - Fear of losing or discarding something important

COMPLUSIVE BEHAVIOR

- Excessive or ritualized hand washing, showering, brushing teeth, or toileting - Repeated cleaning of household objects - Ordering or arranging things in a particular way - Repeatedly checking locks, switches, or appliances -Constantly seeking approval or reassurance - Repeated counting to a certain number The (UN)Satisfaction of Escaping

Some of the most common examples of OCD rituals include Walking a certain way. Performing a repetitive activity, such as locking, unlocking, and relocking a door. Repeating precise movements like sitting up and down, blinking, or walking through a doorway a certain way Start off their day late because they are taking a lot of time for preparations by doing things repeatedly which they can’t stop. Such as, checking their door 5 times to see if it locks properly. After checking the door, if they step out of their house by left foot before right, they are going to think that it is going to be a bad luck. On the way to the destination by walk, they will be strictly careful to not step on the tile’s line or cracks, if they did they will go back a few steps and redo it again to make sure that they not step on any cracks on the floor. Seeing anything misordered or not sorted properly, they are trying to fix them as soon as possible by thinking that if they didn’t arrange them properly something bad is going to happen to them or their surroundings. If they don’t do it, their brain is going to order them to think over and over again about it even though they are trying to not do it or thinking about it but they cannot stop thinking.

perfectionism WHAT IS PERFECTIONISM??

Perfectionism is a broad personality style characterized by a person’s concern with striving for flawlessness and perfection.

RITUALISTIC BEHAVIORS

Some of the most common examples of Perfectionism rituals is to reorganize things around you, rearrange things to be align by color, size, and symmetry. If they see un-

organized things, they are going to clean and make it neat as much as possible. Rearrange books on the bookshelf to make it align by colors and sizes of the book.

HOW IT IMPACT THEIR DAILY LIFE

SInce perfectionists are concerning about perfection. They will align, rearrange, and reorder elements around them by color, size, usage, and etc. and measure them to be in the same degree or distance between things. But it is a habits that they follow rigidly, like certain morning routine or a way of organizing their desk and it is not doing out of anxiety.

Escapism 259

subjectivity Subjectivity refers to how someone’s judgment is shaped by personal opinions and feelings. DIFFERRENT PERSON = DIFFERENT BACKGROUND Since we are born and raised in different upbringing, education system, community, religion, and areas which influence our interests, activities, culture, rituals, etc. are different. For instance, behavior of dealing with waste between Thailand and Japan. In Thailand, people are more careless about dumping trash in an appropriate place. If you walk on a sidewalk in Bangkok, you can see that there are some places that have a big pile of trash along the road or sidewalk from the nearby community. Some might say it is a normal habit of people in that area that they do it for ages to make that place remembered as a NORMAL place where you can throw your trash there but actually it is not. Also the factory and the people along the water source, they are likely to throw or emit bad wastes in. From the number of waste in water pollution, Thailand is the world’s tenth-biggest dumper of plastic waste into the water such as canal and sea. On the other hand, in Japan. They have strict rules and regulations for their citizens to follow. They were taught to recycle and dump their trash into an appropriate place to be a NORMAL habit for them. So, their environment is more clean and well organized. It could be involved with the development of education and technology especially in Japan, a technology industrial country. Maybe they have better ways of dealing with waste and garbage disposal methods than Thailand.

conclusion the differences between my perspective and other perspective of organizing unsatifying living environment to create satisfaction In summary, I have researched and studied about how people create satisfaction in different ways of thinking, perspective, perceptions, and individual preference through living environment. I have observed and explored from my perspective and compare to other perspectives of surrounding elements in your unorganized/unsatisfying space, not only physical but also virtual space to create satisfaction for ourselves. For the next design phase, I aim to create a space for a specific group of people who can use their perception and sensibility to create satisfaction and escape from their unpleasant living environment.

No Escape from Pandemic

No Escape from the Pandemic A Conspiracy Theory Thanpitcha Tiemtree (Aom)

Escapism in the time of pandemic results in a lack of physical interaction. Through the use of escapism, wee seek the means to distract ourselves from the harsh realities of our daily lives by occupying our thoughts with what we chose to believe.

Escapism 293

Abstract It is the year 2021, and the entire world is currently facing the Covid-19 pandemic crisis. Everyone has been placed under lockdown.We all trapped, living in a world limited by quarantines and social isolation. At this time, we are now looking for a way to escape and perhaps social media is the only acceptable method of escape. Our thoughts are drawn to the idea of “escaping” because we are increasingly obsessive with reclaiming control and autonomy over our lives. We look for ways to escape everyday- daily- because we would rather be “there” than “here”. Escapism, in today’s age, therefore is a means of seeking distraction from reality. The Covid-19 outbreak is increasingly causing difficulties in our daily lives.It causes fear, a sense of anxiety, and raises people’ awareness. We are all turning and relying on news as an aggregator of information, grasping on social networking platforms and other online sources for hope. Unfortunately, the internet can be a dark place that is uncontrollable and, thus, can quickly become a vehicle for the transmission of misinformation, fake news, propaganda, and even conspiracy theoriesNot only are we fighting a pandemic, but also a co-evolving infodemic—the quick and broad dissemination of low-quality information. Social algorithms keep us trapped in the echo chamber, validating our beliefs. We interact with information in echo chambers, which are confined environments where ideas are reinforced via interaction and repetition without exposure to contradictory data. If we live in a bubble where we only hear from others who have similar beliefs to us and get information that supports those beliefs, it tends to reinforce what we already think. It’s also about the individuals we have faith in. We know only one side of social media.

Propoganda must confined itself to a few point and repeat again and again. The more often we hear something, the the easier it is for your brain to process, This makes it feel true regardless of its basis in fact. We feel more familiar, and therefore becomes easier to process. Moreover, Bad repetition can even increase acceptance the information we know to be false.

The easier to process the text itself not just the content of the text/ studies show that text easy to read fonts and those with high contrast are more likely to be seen as true than difficult to read fonts or those in low constrast.

This is noe becomming absurdly common. People who shared news items did so without first reading the article. It is a huge component which meakes something feel true regardless of objective truth. If it easy we just tend to nod along accept it and move on. Even if we shouldn’t.

Photos that don’t prove anything but are relevant to the content you’re reading. It also increases the acceptance of knowledge. The main difference in this experiment was that half of the statements were accompanied by a non-probative photograph.And those who saw the picture were more likely to the statement was true. The photo bias people by facilitating the conceptual processing of the statement because their effects is much greater for unfamiliar topics. HoweverThis is because their impacts are significantly stronger for unfamiliar themes and the images prejudice individuals by helping the conceptual processing of the sentence.

Source Name

It is enough to impose enhanced confidence and reliability on a person only by having an easy-to-pronounce name. For example,customers trust online vendors with names that are easy to pronounce more than those with names that are difficult to pronounce. And They are more likely to believe that the product will live up to the seller’s claims and that the seller would follow the return policy.

Social Media Algorithms

No Escape from Pandemic

The Echo Chamber Effect An echo chamber is a situation in which people are only exposed to similar ideas that confirm each other’s beliefs through the use of the internet. Confirmation bias allows people to quickly limit the amount of information they consume. These technology advancements worsen the echo chamber by personalizing users’ content by showcasing their interests while filtering out others’ perspectives. If we live in a bubble in which we only hear from people who share the same views as us and information that supports that, that tends to reinforce what we already believe in. It’s also about people we trust. “Echo chambers” that reinforce present viewpoints enhance confirmation biases.Technology that was supposed to strengthen human relationships has instead resulted in the ripping of our social fabric, as we are divided into social groups with opposing worldviews.

This is our real life social media circle family friends classmates coworker.Many of these people more likely from a similar background as us and have a similar worldview.

But your social new feed takes that to a new level.Social Media algorithms promotes the types of posts we like and share.

Social Media Algorithyms It hide away from posts that put us off or that we don’t interact with this.

This means that we are surrounded by what is known as an echo chamber. It implies that we are only exposed to ideas from people and media outlets who share your viewpoint and agree with.

Echo Chamber & Social Media Algorithms What you see in your feeds isn’t up to you When it comes to social media, there is more than meets the eye. Not only does each platform attract a different audience, encourage a different style of content, and generate a different type of’results,’ but it’s also working to create a different user-experience based on what the platform thinks the user wants beneath the surface.

Facebook When people check their Facebook feed, the Facebook algorithm determines which posts they see and in what order they appear. Facebook, for one, wants people to remember that there is no single algorithm, but rather “many layers of machine learning models and rankings.”

Reddit Reddit uses a story algorithm, meaning the number of votes and submission time of links have the biggest impact on how stories rank on the platform. This is what makes the front page always appear fresh to a new user. If a piece of content is popular, it will start as popular.

Instragram Instagram’s goal is to spread as much information as possible to as many people as possible in a single day. As a consequence, its algorithm takes into account all elements of social media, such as relevancy, connection, engagement, and the popularity of material.

How the Reddit Comment Algorithm Works Because using the hot ranking algorithm for comments would be impracticable, Reddit uses a different algorithm for comments. When it comes to comments, it’s more logical to show the highest-rated comments first rather than older remarks. Instead of using the hot ranking algorithm, Reddit uses a confidence sort algorithm based on the Wilson score interval for its comments.

A comment with 88 up-votes and 1 down vote will rank higher than a comment with only 44 up-vote and no down-votes, even though the latter comment has a 100% upvote rate. The comments are ranked by data sampling and the date the comments are submitted isn’t an active factor

Twitter is looking for new material. As a result, they’re sticking to their original strategy of showing tweets in reverse chronological order. That’s why it’s important to keep track of what day and hour you send out a new tweet.

Relevance Twitter Timeline Algorithm A user is more likely to see a tweet in their timeline if it comes from a person they interact with frequently and has a lot of likes and responses.

A tweet’s keywords and hashtags inform the algorithm what it’s about and who its target audience is. Users are more likely to notice tweet on their timeline if they interact with such keywords and hashtags on previous tweets.

Engagement

When your follower retweets you, their followers now see your tweet. If more of their followers retweet, the process continues ad infinitum.

Twitter tweaks its algorithm on a regular basis to guarantee that more of the appropriate information reaches the right individuals. In the end, they aim to increase user engagement and keep as many people as possible checking in on a regular basis. Tweets were first arranged in reverse chronological order.

The tweets were not arranged in reverse order. They were also older than 10 hours, which I would have missed if I had been browsing through a reverse-chronological timeline. This area contains tweets that Twitter believes are relevant to us, similar to the ranked tweets section. However, the chosen tweets are sorted by relevance score and may date back many hours or days.

This section accomplishes exactly what its name implies. It displays tweets that we might be interested in but didn’t see in the previous timeline because they were from a long time ago.

You’ll also find retweets, promoted tweets, and suggested accounts to follow in this area (and occasionally in the two above). It’s possible that you’ll see tweets from accounts you don’t follow. These are tweets that Twitter believes will add relevance and interest to your feed.

Echo Chamber Misinformation

A harmonious group of people congregates online, and tunnel vision develops. Participants in online interactions may find their beliefs constantly mirrored back to them, strengthening their specific belief systems.

There are certain signs that point to a link between these two phenomena—echo chambers and the spread of misinformation—since homogeneous clusters of users with a preference for self-confirmation seem to provide the seedling of rumors and misinformation. A polarized digital Space where users tend to promote their favorite narratives, form polarized groups and resist information that does not conform to their beliefs may be the fertilizer that makes the Internet so fertile for the growth of misinformation.

Some authors use the terms “echo chambers” or “filter bubbles” to characterize communities of individuals who accept the same (perhaps incorrect) ideas when it comes to fake news and deceit on the internet. In conclution, “bad algorithms” are responsible for the formation of such groups.

The viral spread of digital misinformation has become so severe that the World Economic Forum considers it among the main threats to human society. This spread have been suggested to be related to the similarly problematized phenomenon of “echo chambers”, It finds an “echo chamber effect” is the presence of an opinion and network polarized cluster of nodes in a network contributes to the diffusion of complex contagions, and there is a synergetic effect between opinion and network polarization on the virality of misinformation.

Why do Conspiracy Theories seem to flourish during the Pandemic? “Those drawn to Covid conspiracy theories are not necessarily stupid – they’re scared and desperate to feel in control” -James Bloodworth-

Similar to conspiracy beliefs, pandemics are about an invisible and dreadful enemy lurking among us. Conspiracy theories are contagious, or “viral,” in the same way as pandemics are. They are linked, however, by deeper affinities that go beyond their superficial likeness.

No Escape from Pandemic

Conspiracist beliefs are influenced by social circumstances. Conspiracy theories have long been a part of human history, and they are more likely to emerge during social crises as a way of making sense of and controlling uncontrollable events.

These theories originate in times of uncertainty and danger, when we are anxious and feel compelled to learn what is going on inside this unstable environment.The COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on people’s lives, with substantial attempts being undertaken to stop the virus from spreading.In times of crisis, conspiracy theories flourish. When people are looking for strategies to cope with fear and uncertainty, conspiracy theories.on the other hand,It frequently makes things worse rather than better.

We have never faced a pandemic when humans were as connected and had as much access to information as we do now. It has led people to consume fatal home remedies and flout social distancing guidance. And it is disrupting the sweeping collective actions, like staying at home or wearing masks, needed to contain a virus that has already killed more than 79,000 people.

And finally, social media is the perfect breeding ground for conspiracy theories, and the uncertainty created by the coronavirus outbreak is allowing them to flourish.

oronavirus onspiracy Theories

Conspiracy theories is an effort to explain damaging or tragic events as the product of the acts of a tiny strong organization is known as a conspiracy theory. Such theories contradicts the widely recognized account of the events, in fact, the official version may be viewed as more confirmation of the conspiracy. The COVID-19 pandemic has given rise to numerous new conspiracy theories related to the virus. As COVID-19 spreads quickly throughout the world as well as social media platform and also other viral phenomena such as misinformation or conspiracy theories.They are spreads faster than Corona Virus.

How does conspiracy theories forms? The world is facing a worldwide disinformation epidemic as the COVID-19 issue deepens. Conspiracy theories that act like viruses are growing online at the same rate that SARS-CoV-2 is spreading offline.

COVID-19 has quickly grown to become the greatest public health concern in a generation. People are increasingly turning to social media to learn about the virus, receive updates, and learn how to stay safe. The name COVID-19 is one that no one wants to hear again. The illness has wreaked havoc on people’s life, causing widespread unemployment, rising poverty rates, and general uncertainty and mayhem.

Why people believe in Covid-19 conspiracy theories The term “conspiracy theories” refers to “attempts to explain the significant causes of important social and political events and situations by claiming secret plots involving two or more powerful people.And people believe that the world has a secret structure. Moreover belief in one conspiracy theory tends to overlap with belief in others. This is because most conspiracy theories are based on the concept that important information is kept secret from the general population. As well as They often appear as a reasonable explanation for unusual or difficult-to-understand events or situations. In the times of uncertainty so there are much more the need to clarity.

No Escape from Pandemic

People may believe conspiracy theories because the sources they frequent present them as facts. Not looking at a wide range of sources: People may believe conspiracy theories because the websites they frequent promote them as reality. The truth may also be complex, and people may be unsure whether or not sources are trustworthy.

Locked in the echo chamber

People engage with information inside echo chambers, where opinions are reinforced through interaction and repetition within a closed environment without exposure to conflicting facts.People prefer to deal with information that is either conspiracy-based or scientifically grounded. This leads to confirmation bias, also known as “my side bias,” in which people seek out information that supports their beliefs while ignoring evidence that conflicing them.Moreover,Individuals who believe in a conspiracy theory about a pandemic are also more likely to believe in other conspiracy theories in unrelated contexts.

AI-Enabled Drug Development

COVID-19 and other viruses will be contained more quickly if we can develop and implement an effective and safe treatment as well as a vaccine to prevent the virus. Because it can speed up and complement human efforts, artificial intelligence is a great drug development collaborator. Our current reality will inform future efforts to employ AI in drug development.

Contactless Interactions and Interfaces

Prior to the pandemic, we noticed the growth of contactless payment options via mobile devices. However, as people grow more aware of what they touch, a means of paying for goods and services that does not need physical contact is likely to become increasingly popular. In certain firms, machine vision interfaces are already being used to apply social media filters and enable self-checkout. Expect to see a rise in voice and machine vision interfaces that identify faces and motions across a range of industries to minimize the amount of physical contact.much more the need to clarity.

Increased Reliance on Robots

Viruses have no effect on robots.Robots can help us now and play an essential part in a postCOVID-19 world or during a future pandemic. They may be used to deliver groceries, collect vital signs in a hospital system, maintain manufacturing operations, and much more. Businesses and organizations understood how robots may help us in this uncertain time and play a critical role in a postCOVID-19 society, or even in the event of a future epidemic.

Telemedicine

We began to receive letters from healthcare experts urging individuals to have a virtual consultation instead of going in person (unless absolutely required). Many doctors are either adopting or reminding their patients that video consultations are available. Instead than rushing to the doctor or healthcare facility, which increases traffic and crowding, remote care allows clinical treatments to be provided without an in-person visit. Before COVID-19, some healthcare practitioners were already practicing this, but interest has piqued now because social distancing is required in many regions.

Effect of Conspiracy Theories The problem of living inside echo chambers Many individuals want to blame the “social media bubble,” which is the notion that everyone is divided into like-minded circles and only hears like-minded opinions.outside the box, innovate, and adapt to a new environment.

No Escape from Pandemic

Social media algorithms compound the problem by reinforcing rather than changing our beliefs. They point us in the direction of things we already know and like. They make it easier for us to construct our own echo chambers, complete with others who share our ideas. As a result, confirmation bias emerges. Tribal allegiances lead to incorrect assumptions and perceptions about what constitutes a normal organization or community.

If it weren’t so hazardous, the spread of urban legends and conspiracies would be amusing. Approximately 61% of millennials get their news largely from social media. However, we are triggering algorithms that curate our feeds in the process. These cherry-pick information that we are inclined to agree with and discard data that does not appear to match our tastes – frequently at the expense of accuracy and balance.

What is the Truth?

Disinformation / Fake news

The use of social media in distributing information about the epidemic was particularly important, albeit it was not without its drawbacks, such as false news and panic transmission.

Fake news one film claim to show crows in the heart of Wuhan during the pandemic’s peak. They were attracted to dead bodies, according to the passage. In reality, this footage came from a place 1000 miles away in China. While it did depict crows, the fact that they were in the city had nothing to do with the epidemic.

The majority of the cliams dealt with health information or disinformation. However, the most prevalent form of cliam we saw had to do with policy and public authority activity.much more the need to clarity. Most of the content involved recontextualising,reworking or reframing a grain of truth or a true fact in a way that it was no longer true.

IN FACT In fact, this footage came from a place 1000 miles away in China. While it did show crows, the fact that they were in the city had nothing to do with the epidemic.

How does social media disinformation spread? One of the ways that misinformation spreads once its creators have seeded it online is through the actions of individual social media users. Ordinary people may distribute the knowledge to their own social networks by using intentional sharing, which is a core feature of platforms like Facebook and Twitter. Other content-related behaviors, such as “liking,” lead social media sites’ algorithms to show it to others. This is known as “organic reach” It has a huge potential for disseminating false information.

Misinformtion Misinformation is described as “false information disseminated with no aim to deceive.” Misinformation is information that is incorrect but is being spread by someone who thinks it to be true.

Disinformation False information distributed with the intent of harming a person, a social group, an organization, or a country.

Escapism 325

Why do people spread social media disinformation? Individuals who share or interact with internet misinformation have essentially been encouraged to do so by its creators. Influential theories of social information processing imply that persuasion can take several forms. We may carefully evaluate the information provided in particular instances. While a variety of other elements are likely to influence the spread of disinformation, there is reason to believe that consistency, consensus, and authority play a role.

No Escape from Pandemic

Consistency Consistency refers to the degree to which sharing would be consistent with the individual’s prior practices or viewpoints. According to a large amount of research, people tend to behave in ways that are consistent with their attitudes. Even when plainly labeled as false, social media users regard headlines that coincide with their pre-existing beliefs as more trustworthy [18]. This might make it appealing to people who sympathize with the message’s substance in the context of disinformation.

Bot networks are used to automate the distribution of low-credibility material on Twitter. Bots have been implicated in the fast dissemination of information, tweeting and retweeting items several times. Humans reading the messages may interpret the high retweet counts generated by bot networks as implying that many other people agree with them. “Any degree of plausible bot sharing activity tends to elicit a disproportionate level of human participation,” according to studies.

Consensus

Authorities

Consensus refers to the degree to which people feel their conduct is congruent with that of the majority of other people. In the current circumstances, it’s likely that reading a message that has already been widely circulated may prompt people to pass it on to others.

Authority refers to the degree to which the communication seems to come from a respected, trustworthy source. People are more inclined to share a social media post if it originates from a trustworthy source, according to research.

The Surreal Escape

The Surreal Escape Escape to the Subconscious Mind Peeraya Chiracharoenwat (Jenna)

In this chapter I will investigate the effect of social media addiction and how it links to surrealism and the subconscious mind. The disadvantages of social media addiction is viewed as a medium to connect us to a third reality (dreams) which you can endlessly curate and express your view and opinion defying the laws of current world reality. Considering dream as a space where you can connect with other individuals through different techniques. Escapism 329

Abstract Surrealism is a cultural movement way back in the 1900, it is one of the most influential movements and to this day still influences many artists and can be seen in many surreal digital art. Surreal art allows individuals to express their views and opinions escaping from the current world’s limitations. Back in the day, surrealists used various techniques to induce hallucinations in order to create their art pieces, however in the modern world over stimulating your mind by being addicted to social media is now a medium for you to connect to the subconscious world. The disadvantages of social media addiction is seen as a bridge which enables us to enter a third reality. Social media addiction has a huge impact on our daily lives including disrupting our circadian rhythm causing us to have disruptive dreams. Disruptive dreams can be categorized into 2 main forms, lucid dreaming and telepathic dreaming; this empowers us the ability to create space within our own mind or as known as the theory of Spatial temporal and emotions. Spatial temporal and emotions suggests that interpretation of dreams relies on logical relations between dream representations and real perceptions of the recent waking reality, which are compared in Space, in Time and by the Emotions they hold. This theory entitles us individuals living in a sleepless society to be able to connect and curate within our subconscious mind.

Escaping To Wonderland Down The Rabbit Hole Suchaya Wanuchsoontorn (Prae)

This chapter will let you leave the boring aespect of your daily routine and and take you to Wonderland through the digital rabbit hole.

Escapism 379

Abstract If you have your own world, what would you like to create? Have you ever considered getting away from your everyday routine? Where would you want to escape to? Escapism is a diversion from human daily life. Even if some individuals appear to be joyful, the reality is rarely as pleasant as one might hope. Reality is often not as good as expected even when some pretend to be happy. Life is full of stress and unpleasant aspects, and this is where escapism begins. Humans, in general, are continually looking for new, exciting, and enjoyable experiences. The place where they can escape to achieve This could be categorized into three main spaces: physical-, traditional-, and virtual space.Through social media, virtual space has played a big part in today’s media saturated world, and it’s not unexpected that social media has become the primary and powerful means of escaping reality by entering an imaginative world. The power of social media lies in providing users with the ability to control what we can barely grasp in reality. This research has taken inspiration from the story of Alice in the Wonderland by Lewis Carrol. The research focused on exploring the experience of social media escapism through the experience as Alice journeys into the Wonderland. The rabbit hole that Alice falls into is similar to social media from the real world. Since we fall into the digital world, we get to explore everything in the new world ourselves. The research initially provides the reader with historical,politica,social, and cultural context referenced from the Victorian era. Ideas of the power struggle in a class-based society, praising, cyber racism, and identity issues of beauty standards are amongst the research that bare resemblance towards the views of social media.A final manifesto was introduce in order to design the wonderland that I would like to escape into.
