When a comedy titled ‘community’ went online, I expected it to do a great job incorporating social networks and communities. I was mistaken.
NBC’s “Community” kicked off it’s second season on Twitter this year. Fans were invited to ‘tuned in’ for an 80-tweet “Twittersode.” Those who participated got to see the show’s characters plan their second year at school.
For those new to the series, Community tells the story of Jeff Winger (Joel McHale), a suspended lawyer who was forced back into school after his college degree is deemed invalid by the state bar association. The series focuses on Jeff’s experiences while attending the Greendale Community College in Greendale, Colorado, and the people he meets there – particularly, those in his Spanish-class study group.
In the online world, ‘the things you care about’ define who you are. They say as much about your personality as the clothes you wear and Facebook updates you share.
Behind every Facebook profile is a story. Sometimes it is action-adventure, romance, or drama — and, sometimes, its a fantasy. No one know this better than New York photographer Yaniv ‘Nev’ Schulman who explored on this reality on film as it unfolded in his own life.
