Increasingly social distancing measures have taken on a political element in the United States. This post shows a store in the author's hometown proudly advertising that masks are not allowed in the store, that handshakes and hugs are OK and that they are "open to the Truth". Absent a consistent set of messages from the top levels of government many different theories and ideas about liberty VS public safety have taken hold. *Screenshot of Twitter post

This video shows what I have been doing during this pandemic. I took the free time I had and started my own tie-dye business. I am quite proud of how successful this business has become over the course of a few months. Turning this quarantine into something positvie! #CSUS #HIST15H

A series of posts on my blog recounting my experience and thoughts on the current crisis. I've given you the link for the whole site; you will only be interested in the latest six posts made starting 3/23

I thought it would be important to post a Military meme as they are usually what is considered the 'front line'. It is a niche community but still very broad. I think this meme emphasizes the freedom we take for granted but are beginning to realize as quarantine is deepened. This is something the Military is more accustomed to.

The image indicates the price as well as who and where I got the masks from. Coming from parents to extended family members. My masks only represent me and the mass production and utilization of masks, some people have more or more extravagant masks. *April 2020 *Photograph of a collection of masks

This meme sheds light on the essential workers needing to still go into work everyday. Even in a pandemic, the people who work at grocery stores, public transportation, etc. still are required to go to work, and some even still need the money to. Work is both a burden and a luxury in this chaotic and stressful time.

This meme is a political satire on what the major players in our capitalist economy are pushing for currently. By making the people the most money focused cartoon/movie characters commonly known, it points to the surreal nature of people pushing to go back to regular time when we aren't ready.

This meme is probably one of the saddest ones I've posted because it's the most real. It highlights that economic reality so many people are facing and exposes the systemic issues at play.

I have been doing this series on memes for the archive for a class, as I love social media. This was a submission from my Professor; she sent me it via email. Reflecting on receiving this meme form my professor, I realize the importance of memes especially in times of chaos. They reach all people in one way or another; they are universal. I think that's the beauty of memes. This meme in particular exposes public sentiment in reference to our president along with satire on his solution for the pandemic.

COVID-19 JOURNALING

2020 Senior Year Reflections

COVID-19 JOURNAL

I have been consistently posting material on the archive since we started contributing the archive as a class. I’ve given my interpretations of events or personal experiences throughout my posts, and I think my posts point out some small but important parts of this pandemic that would have otherwise been brushed under the rug. I aimed to focus on the ways the live music industry was affected by Covid. Since many of the venues I go to in New York have been closed down and are in jeopardy of never reopening, I thought it would be best to give my thoughts on those examples while I also wanted to show the rippling effects the governmental lockdowns had on a number of industries. The shutdowns of these venues really affect many other industries — there are entire businesses, bartenders, performers, comedians, artists, and activists who are negatively impacted by these shutdowns. I've seen people who work at my internship get laid off because the company, an events booking company and publication, is not making any money at the moment. Yet, while I notice that a lot of my friends or artists I like are not making a lot of money during this time, I’ve seen so many great fundraisers put together by these musicians to help other groups of people who are disproportionately affected by the virus and shutdowns. I searched for new content through social media, news sites, and personal accounts. I found myself actively and coincidentally finding material to post, whether it be reading an article or hearing about an “online concert” from friends and coworkers. I tried to diversify my material while attempting to stay in the realm of the live music business. For example, I gave an account of my purchase in support of the Groundswell Rapid Response Fund through the music-buying site Bandcamp (almost like iTunes), while I also posted an article explaining how California lawmakers had amended laws in favor of the gig economy, which directly affects musicians and artists. I wanted to post pieces from both large publications and small publications to hear diverse voices and to understand the pandemic through different perspectives.

This project aims to document all of the different conspiracies and their growth and treatment by the media throughout the pandemic. This is the headline of an article describing how Burger King issued a statement warning people not to drink bleach after a statement issued by the president. This is not fake news, but I decided to include it in this series because it demonstrates how hard it can get to navigate fake news and conspiracies, especially when the real news sometimes sounds fake.

We’ve started a music club in almost every location we have lived (from New Mexico to New York). Our current music club is in Hamilton, New York. Whoever hosts a music club picks the theme and all attendees bring two songs to share related to that theme. The theme often aligns with a feeling (music that haunts) or a season (autumn sweater). However, sometimes it's tied to a place or format like last year's ode to the music video hosted at the Hamilton Theater One of the few silver linings of this pandemic has been reconnecting with friends near and far. We thought this would be the perfect opportunity to bring together all of our friends for a globe-spanning, quarantine-themed virtual edition.  The theme for this music club was “whatever gets you through the night.” We wanted to know what songs were getting folks through the night right now, what songs they might always associate with this time. “Whatever” was intentionally vague and open to interpretation. Songs of unbridled joy? A burst of sonically cathartic rage? An extended meditation on melancholy? Whatever.
