What’s fairly popular thats was popular in the 80’s is fashion and pop icons. Singers such as Michael Jackson or Prince are still fairly popular today even though descend. “Billie Jean” or “When Doves cry” are still fairly popular! Also what reminded the same is that 80s fashion is somewhat making a comeback with high waisted jeans and popping solid colors, hopefully the hair will stay in the 80s. But a lot has changed just like technology, the first phone was released in the 80s it looks like a gray brick with an antenna attached. Mow phones are much smaller and you can do more than calling a friend. My favorite was either my diorama or one of my teammates music video. I put a lot of time into making this diorama. I made it a scrapbook style where I put different movies or idols that were popular within the 80s. I learned the most about social culture when dealing with 80s LA. I learned more about the music that was popular such as rap or sometimes pop. If I could change one thing is maybe only do three artifacts rather than four. I feel as reading the book AND making a CYOA was a lot of work. The book we read was 1984 by George Orwell. The author wrote the book within the 80s trying to make predictions about the future, forty years later. The book takes place in London England. The country has been taken over by a totalitarian government, the people live there, their lives are controlled by the government. Everything you do is for the government, you work for the government, you read about the government, you watch movies about the government. There are posters all over the city that say Big Brother is Watching You.
