• Mr. Holland's Opus

I approach hollywood's content very carefully

because I notice that our society has been dominated by it's culture through movies and TV, and we consume media much more than we participate in creation of our own ideas and expressions. This is a recipe for a stranded culture, unsure of how to interact with our neighbors, and often times not caring. My media strategy is to work towards using and administrating an open web based system. The principles of the internet demand more citizen participation, which will ultimately tip our culture back towards self-balancing; better democracy. Democracy depends on media. If we have monolithic media, our culture follows.

Where do we root the answer? At the foundations.
