http://communicationsfromars.blogspot.com/2009/10/i-never-thought-vampires-werewolves-and.html
How it's like from Mars. Saturday, October 10, 2009. HALLO TWILIGHT FANS, YOU ARE NOT ALONE :). I never thought vampires, werewolves and the weak human self could be such an interesting combination until there was. Stephenie Meyer's work is pure brilliant! I'll show you my Twilight book collection if you don't believe me ;). The highly-anticipated trailer of New Moon. So what has all this gotta do with Communications' this week? This video simply shows the concept of. Jacob to the rescue, yipee! He then ...

SMMOC: FEEL The Lack of Inspiration
http://communicationsfromars.blogspot.com/2009/09/feel-lack-of-inspiration.html
How it's like from Mars. Saturday, September 26, 2009. FEEL The Lack of Inspiration. Hello fellow Comms people! Deepest apologies for the lack of creativity/novelty/inspiration. I know how everyone uses Youtubes videos ALLLL the time and expects you to waste 3 - 6 minutes watching it before commenting :/ Forgive me but I'm afraid you're going to have to do the same here - my brain juices are almost depleted, if that even makes sense. As the song progresses, paralinguistics. Have a great weekend :D. I bel...

SMMOC: Torn
http://communicationsfromars.blogspot.com/2009/09/torn.html
How it's like from Mars. Friday, September 18, 2009. On the surface, while this video might seem to be able to brighten up anyone's bad day (including mine :), there are certain communication concepts which can be applied here as well, namely perception and interpretation. Refers to how we attach meaning to what we select and organize. This is the more important concept as compared to perception as the former will require us to look at verbal (singer Natalia Imbruglia) and non-verbal (Lippowitz's mim...

SMMOC: Freedom to Prejudice & Ethnocentrism
http://communicationsfromars.blogspot.com/2009/10/freedom-to-prejudice-ethnocentrism.html
How it's like from Mars. Friday, October 16, 2009. Freedom to Prejudice and Ethnocentrism. Hello all, it's 11.36 PM now. An attempt to work out a reasonable post for this week might fail but I'll still give it a go. The only time I managed to catch it was only on HBO, and I haven't watched the full movie myself. Nevertheless, the movie was published in 2007, and I'm assuming the book could already have been out earlier. We kill each other over race, pride and respect. We fight for our. Ethnocentrism take...

SMMOC: Cultural Imperialism
http://communicationsfromars.blogspot.com/2009/10/cultural-imperialism.html
How it's like from Mars. Friday, October 23, 2009. Most people don't believe I'm a gamer, probably because I don't look like one. Most people believe I only listen to easy pop and country music, but I do like the other genres too. It's funny sometimes how people can form perceptions or descriptions of you which aren't completely. accurate. Will we be subjected, finally, the American way of life at the end of the day? To me, I think only time will tell. According to our lecture notes on page 21,. From my ...

SMMOC: HOT on Relationships
http://communicationsfromars.blogspot.com/2009/10/hot-on-relationships.html
How it's like from Mars. Friday, October 2, 2009. No one would deny any piece of juicy information or gossip, spread by the word of mouth. I have been subscribing to HOT. Magazine for awhile now (God knows what it stands for but it sure is hot). I first saw it on the racks of a random 7-11 store, and saw it was only $2.90! As our instructor touched on. So keeping this in mind, I am going to point out some information and tie them in with the concepts which we've learnt so far. Secondly, the very fact tha...

SMMOC: Moment of Truth
http://communicationsfromars.blogspot.com/2009/09/moment-of-truth.html
How it's like from Mars. Friday, September 11, 2009. A fairly controversial American gameshow that has already aired for three seasons and counting, "the Moment of Truth" does reflect some concepts of Communications learnt over the past two weeks. So what recent concepts of Communications have we learnt that can be seen in this gameshow? One of Bacon's Four Idols. Can actually be applied here - and that is the. Idol of the Tribe. Now keep those comments coming! Posted by :DEBBIE @ 12:43 PM. Anyway , yeah...
