 About Me Blog

My name is Barret Brundage, I am from Atlanta, Georgia. My current home is in Portland, Oregon.

I'm working towards a Business Admin degree, with a future minor in accounting. I'd like the idea to work in the business force of a company. I have the abroad idea in mind, hopefully to expand my knowledge in world business.

I have a bunch of hobbies I'm interested in, I love attaining new skills to carry throughout my life. One of my favorites was to be out in nature cliff jumping and swimming. That adrenaline rush gets me every time. That feeling of pre-jump to mid-air is beyond my mind. I've been jumps and stunts like this since I was a child, although they didn't;t seem dangerous to me at the the time, they now get to me sometimes before I jump. As I'm getting older I'm starting to stray away from the dangerous activities I used to perform.

Lastly, I have taken a communications class before. It was Comm 111, my thoughts at first was this stuff would come easy, knowing I was a relatively social person, but boy was I wrong. Getting up in front of a small class was definitely frightening. My most common fear was feeling the pressure of not being prepared well enough.

One thing undeniable is Knapp's model, I think it's pretty accurate on each stage.      While each stage has it's own implications I think a stage where I stand with a current building  relationship is at the Intensifying part. It can be hard to evaluate a relationship you currently have or one from the past, that's why I find difficulty to exactly pin point where it stands. Although, the intensity and formality of the relationship is becoming less formal and easier to make plans. I think its pretty easy to stay I'm at the beginning of this stage. https://www.communicationtheory.org/knapps-relationship-model/ Online communication in this aspect have it...

Socio Semiotics

  Social semiotics is a methodology that involves the study of how meaning is produced and communicated through visual and linguistic signs within a cultural context. This methodology was developed by scholars such as Roland Barthes, Umberto Eco, and Gunther Kress, who sought to understand how visual and linguistic signs interact in various cultural settings. Social semiotics is important because it helps us to understand how images and words work together to create meaning, and how this meaning is influenced by social and cultural factors. One of the key rules of social semiotics is that the meaning of a sign is not fixed or absolute, but is instead produced through a process of negotiation between the sign and the viewer. This means that the same image or word can have different meanings depending on the cultural context in which it is used. For example, photos at the top of a page may be seen as more important or authoritative than those at the bottom, while photos to the left o...
