Society

Reymond Williams book on Society explores and states about how society should work "Made by the people for the people" explains that we as a society should come together to make things by us for the people, in that sense we (general public) don't really follow this as much because of how the world works. We live in a society that has massive companies that want to just provide for the people and gain money for their services.

First thing's first manifesto quotes "life is unfair but can be changed by creatives, allowing people to work together and equally" this would be lovely in a creatives view, but the change is difficult to do from my understanding as creatives don't get as many options as an academic.

Being unique and working for themselves, does not work in society, rather working on our strengths with others provides a better result, which is why the industry is starting to incorporate more creatives to work with academic people.

Cultural relativism is important in society, defined as people choosing what's right from what their values are. but who is to say whose right or wrong. Basically, think about it in a way that puts you in the other person shoes. is it right for them?

these judgements are based on moral aspects, and treat yourself and others the same, using people is an act that breaks the moral code.

interesting concepts i learns in this lecture. a formed opinion would be "treat others the way you would like to be treated"
