Leigh Blackall: “There has been a long and [barren] relationship between education and popular culture for over a century now. Education has been absent from reality for as long as I’ve been a part of it and today is no different – even when Social Media has direct associations to the rhetoric of educational practice… The challenge I think, is to educationally consider the culture being recorded in these mediascapes, in such a way so as to ask let alone answer more than the obvious questions.”
