Why I ♡ My Media
What I love about new media is the fact that it can be a stage for everyone. It doesn’t matter who you are or where you come from, things you make can get in the spotlight and seen by thousands of people. This way I am able to see a lot of creative and sometimes …

When you ask me why I heart my media, I don’t really know how to anwser that question. The truth is that I can barely remember a live without my media. My media has become a part of me and to what extent can you love a part of yourself? The things we did as …
