One of my favorite photos was the shot of the pantry closet. Inside I recognized quite a few brands that are still successful today: Cherios, Jif peanutbutter, Crisco, Hershey's, Campbell's, Dixie, & Kellogs. I need to look into these brands and see what exactly they have done over the years to keep their place in consumer's kitchens.
I also liked this photo of the hippies by their VW bug. In Cutri's 302 class last night we learned how the ideologies surrounding the VW bug had changed from the 50s (Nazi prosperity) -> 60s (counter-culture) ->1998 (revival). I thought it was awesome I saw this picture right after learning about that.
"The Face of the Earth" by Vito Acconci struck me as novel because it was probably one of the very first video blogs done. Probably the first time somebody thought to set up a video camera and journal to it. The first Fred.
