@IvanaSpurlock @EloniMedia @philmot Thanks to #elonimedia I have started to work as a Graphic Design intern! Would not be able to do my job OR be so connected to great connections without this program!

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@FertigZack @EloniMedia @IvanaSpurlock Agreed! I want to be a unicorn too- web design, graphic design, and photography are my go tos! iMedia has been here to help me improve in all three! #elonimedia

@IvanaSpurlock @EloniMedia Joining you live from my kitchen! Cooking dinner and editing my work as we speak!

@Media_of_Sophia talks social listening and moderating conversation around your brand! I think this is incredibly important for customer service teams. Helps brands move forward and maintain positive relationships! #pktheory Thanks for sharing!

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@FertigZack presents his #pktheory on video game ethics! Talk about knowledge of a subject. Game immersion such. wonderful way to get a user to relate to a game and the community as a whole! Great topic!

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@IMEJuliaK color blindness is a topic we cant forget about in design. Have you run into this yourself? I now I have and it is definitely a challenge! #pktheory

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@SavKnight3 presents on crisis communication via social media! This top is fascinating to me because it is something we see every day. I think social media is a great place to help during a crisis and I have seen this first hand with fires, break ins and more. #pktheory

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@KerrieK0309 presents on community detectives. Amateurs have the ability to help solve cases too! Would you ever want to help catch a criminal through the internet? #pktheory

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@DesignrTyrell brings back the Fyre festival and the Magic Byrd but was destroyed by a tweet. This goes to show what actually goes on with "fake social media" and how believable it really is to the public. #pktheory

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@IvanaSpurlock brings us the topic of social media and mental health and she hasn’t had her coffee yet🤯!! Need I call her the queen of social media? @Twitter you are going to want this gal on your team! #pktheory

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@FertigZack I too agree that I go on sims to build out the house and sometimes don't use the actual game! Very funny to think about but I think it is fun to look at avatars and beyond! Sims is a great example.

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

Wii fit balance board games are my favorite! @EmmaAtElon talks about how these games really make you feel like you are in the game. These games allow for you to identify with the games that you play. Great!!! #pkthoery

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@EmmaAtElon can't wait to see this! Have seen your hard work on this #pktheory presentation on avatars that we are all able to create!

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@ladydi_114 Pandora is still a fantastic option! I also use it on occasion because it is a great music discovery tool! Radio based still has a lot of room to grow and I do not think it is going anywhere anytime soon. I'm sure there are plenty of great changes coming in the near future!

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@ladydi_114 #pkthoery about Deep Fakes. This technology is definitely alarming but very interesting! Do you think there is any damage control that can be done with deep fakes of do you think we are already too far along?

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@dylee0625 Yes, Spotify does still have free account optionsthat are advertising based so anyone can access a playlist! I would love to see a collaboration between Spotify and Apple Music but we will see if the day ever comes!

[Christy Marchand @marchandc_]

@Daniela61373610 brought up great points about the issues surrounding digital redlining. Very interesting statistics.
