Welcome to my corner of the internet! 😈
I make videos about how society is shaped by the technologies it creates. I'm mostly obsessed with how television, social media and now artificial intelligence are used to control the masses. These are technologies that have only existed within the constructs of capitalism and so are inherently dependent on extracting value from its audience, aka us. I think that's messed up. So I created this channel to share what I learn every month about the new ways that we're being exploited. 🙃
I did an undergrad in communication studies so I regularly reference communication theorists or cultural studies in my videos to unpack the economic incentives of these technologies. If you're new here, you should start with my Keep Comm and Carry On series.
I hope that by watching my channel you'll become literate in media and artificial intelligence and will want to advocate for creating technologies that are less shitty.

Very thorough video! You did a lot of great research work to put this all together Cheyenne! My story/situation might be different than others. I am 46 years old and am employed (not in communications), and I'm trying to re-invent myself, create new skills, and expand my work experience. I believe this is probably the field I should have went into after I got out of college but I didn't. Is there still hope? Do you have any advice/tips for me?
Thank you for this awesome video. Much love.
If you are presenting information, it's your platform to be informative. Your audience could be new to your subject and no question is a dumb question.
All the board members and CEO’s of Canadian companies are not white. These claims are ignorant.
Good
thank you for creating this video, cheyenne! i will soon be entering college and i plan to take communications as my bachelor's degree. been feeling uncertain about it because of the videos saying it's useless but you restored my faith in my degree. thank you very much for restoring my trust with my choice.
Really useful video, love your thumbnails, and content choice. I’m not sure if you’ll see this comment, but what is your racial background?
Thanks! I’m trini 🇹🇹😌
You’re voice is really relaxing and I love the way you’re talking 😍😍😍
But Public Relations sounds boring!
I just started Watching your videos today and I love the way you explain the careers in such understandable language!
Small point, but it's C.S. Peirce (prounounced "purse"), not "Pierce." Otherwise a great summary!
Communications is a useless women's degree. Marketing pretty much useless too. Not surprising you didnt know the difference til you worked. Men usually get useful degrees. What a waste of time.
Same in the UK we get free NHS but when it comes to teeth absolutely nothing. It's funny that isn't it 😅
This video was amazing. I am graduating and interested in PR. Thank you for your easily explained, to the point video.
Can we have a clarification that Gutenberg didn't invent the press, he just standardized things into the system that was then used by everyone else? It's a small detail but everyone always gets it wrong... love the vid!
Thanks! I can definitely look into that. I know China had a printing press way before Gutenberg too.
what a relevant intro - the media is everywhere and is everything around us, so it is a more than useful degree. I have a module within my english degree and it is all about media linguistics, super interesting. I wish you the best in your studies :)
Super helpful, definitely something I am interested in! I have not graduated yet but I like seeing the different avenues I can take as an interpersonal comm major.
Nothing is cooler than finding a black girl who can teach me about the things I'm learning in school 🫂. Thank you fr🫵🏾😔
Aawwww I appreciate this!
Thank you so much!!!
I know what you mean. Mine added up to over 6000 I said see you.
Made me run to google too many times to not give this a like
thank you this was very clarifying
What costs me here in Canada 1500 cad, better service in Bangladesh costs me 100 cad.
But where do you find these jobs other than using the school for placement ?
This job in particular I uploaded my resume to Indeed and a recruiter contacted me!
Well put.
20-80.
love the perfume ad showing, i think adding more scenic views like the ads can help me focus more. Your voice is very relaxing with them.
this will help me decide to go back for a MA in communication studies! thank you ❤️
I'm debating on going back for my MBA. I just don’t know if I want to take strategic communications, integrated marketing communications, or get a certificate in digital marketing.
Realistically these hyper segmented degrees and certificates are just a way for schools to enroll more students. No one in the workforce really knows the difference between such granular degrees My advice is that if you want to move up the corporate ladder and work in business do the MBA. If you only want to work in marketing and never go passed a director/vp level do the digital marketing certificate. Most importantly get a marketing job asap because the field is always changing and school will never cover everything fully. Best of luck!!
@@itscheyennecassidy thank you! I’m currently a marketing coordinator. However, I want to do more so I’m thinking brand marketing or digital marketing specialist.
Thank you
Very well done, Cheyenne! Are you a "media studies" case study? Are your videos sort of media text? What is not "media studies" if we assume that all we communicate is mediated via a "medium"? Thank you!
When you control the definition of words, you can control the narrative and shift all arguments into your favor.
THANK YOU ive been wondering this for awhile
Again great work. I studied this stuff in the 80s and am trying to return to academia so you explanation have been very helpful
Well done!
So helpful for my Linguistic Anthro class online.
Thank you this was very helpful❤…so is there any opportunity where I can volunteer in some other businesses ? Um still a student and want to gain more knowledge
Thls is AWESOME Cheyenne!! I wish you were my professor!! Thank you!!!
You're such a great teacher! Not only did you make this understandable, you made it interesting and easy to listen to too! You should (for my, and other students sake) do a podcast! I havent found any good podcast on communicatino science, it's all generalized sociology or psychology.
You're literally saving lives hun thanks
Thank you for making this vid it was very helpful ❤❤
I’m a comm major but I just don’t like social media or marketing 😢
dental care is a monopoly and monopolies never have to reduce prices!
Thanks so much! I am using this for an undergrad class on Popular Culture. You explain so clearly!
Bruuuuuu Your boss gave such goood ass advice, and ya'll conversation about him not remembering your interview had me hella weak.
Preach it lady! In Mexico it's at least ten times cheaper than USA... and still more expensive than India.
Corporate Communications sounds a lot like me. I'm boring lol.
Cool. Thx a lot for this
Thank u!!
There is one defintion of racism. The RIGHT definition and it won't be altered for current generations of soft pansies like you. Power has nothing to do with racism. A homeless person can be racist to the leader of the country they live in. It is a core problem.
