How gossip works: No Secrets

Check this out.  The theme is how the world easily knows massive amounts of information including secrets.  The largest picture is that of hands on the globe.  I think that really says it all about Julian Assange's objective for the WikiLeaks website:  everyone in the world has their hands on the world as far as information goes; we are very much aware of what's going on in the world.  Also notably is a picture at the top center of one man gossiping into the ear of another.  Now why is this here?  Well, in my text document on the motivation of Julian Assange I speculated that Assange was quite the gossiper.  A man who is telling secrets out to the world must have a talent in gossiping.  He's the international gossiper!  For better or for worse is up to you but he surely knows how to get the information out. 

Another one of these images is the internet troll on the bottom left hand corner.  Now why this little creature is in this collage is because I made a point about how people are more confident in saying things on the internet than they would be face to face to the people whom they are criticizing.  I relate to Assange because he may not have become the person he is today without the aid of a website (WikiLeaks website).  Just saying.  He could easily have the initiative to be out in the streets of London, with newspapers in his hands, yelling "extra! extra! read all about it! government secrets exposed!".  But I think it should be considered that it takes a different type of personality to tell stuff on the internet (while not being seen or even being anonymous) than it is to tell things to people's faces.  Boldness, if you will.

Now turn your attention to the upper left hand corner of my collage.  You see a picture of Julian Assange.  Now look at the ring around his eye.  What is that supposed to be?  Well, that's a peep hole.  And not any peep hole but the peep hole outside my digital media classroom!  Anyway where I found this peep hole is not important.  What's important is that having these peep holes scattered about my collage represents all the various holes that the information WikiLeaks obtained leaked through.  The world has many peep holes and certainly Assange fancies himself to look through these.  And of course with the aid of digital technology, we have exponentially more peep holes to look in.
