  1. Hi Steve,

    Please make some progress with your blogs.

    I see that you have posted the two videos which I shared on FB, but to be a degree level designer, you should be able to say more.

    You summarized the two ideas as 'less is more, less is a bore' but elaborate on them. Explain the justifications behind the two ideas and examine the context from which these ideas grew out from.

    These ideas then can help you connect to the superhero aspects. For example, perhaps you can find a superhero who has no or few superpower. Or a superhero (or VILLAIN) who radically wants to progress society through science and technology. Compare that with superheroes who don't seem to be heroes at all. Or are a critique of superheroism. Hint: A movie directed by Zack Snyder on a comic written by Alan Moore.

    1. Hi Daniel,
      The video was just an introduction about the modernism and postmodernism hehe :p
      I've update my blog about my research and i tried to show one aspect from modernism and postmodernism at a time and connect it with several superheroes movies. Looking forward to hear your comment on my next post.
      Thanks Daniel :)
