To share our VR worlds at the faire we can have a large poster indicating each VR idea and a line where they can try it out near the corresponding advertisement. Developing the VR content was not hard at all. Because our teacher allowed us to choose a topic ourselves, we were able to find things that we were interested in and put it into action. Specifically for the video I am working on, the audience will be acting as a person walking and looking around and experiencing a Lysergic Acid Diethylamide trip (commonly known as LSD or ACID). In hopes to eliminate the chances of a person curious to try it out.
We are hoping the the viewers will walk away being aware of the trip and hopefully not partake and spread the word that is very hard to come out of it and it is very dangerous. Realistically I am not sure how viewing our video will influence anothers VR. I think that it is a self thing and you'd really have to think about it on your own and produce something that means something to you. Influence is cool, it's great, but it has to be an individuals work. That way it is original. I think that having facts present in the video will also help the viewers realize and understand the process and the major danger it can cause to one and others and the large influence on society period. Dewey's idea is that democracy and education are very much intertwined. In the project we are more focused on the earnings rather than the purpose of the project or the main reason why we are even producing it. I feel like the educational aspect is being ignored because there is another addition that is making us shift our focus for a grade. Pink's thesis is pretty much that people's focuses have shifted from the main project to the reward. When something is being advertised and there is a reward, cash or product, people change their motivation from the project to the rewards forcing the project we were once so passionate about into a task. In school this is the equivalent to most school projects. Our teachers give us an itinerary for a new extension and then attach a grade to the end, so the topic we choose is no longer something we are passionate about, it is something we are forced to do for a reward. For a grade. Here it is most definitely unfair because teachers are not receiving the students work to the best of their abilities and we are not showing that.
