Entropy- "unpredictability." A text is entropic if it contains unpredictable elements as it is non conventional which makes text quirky and interesting.
We learnt the terms redundancy and entropy in reference to music video's, I learnt that redundancy is necessary as it allows for effective, easy communication. We were set a small task to look at text images to decide if they were entropic or redundant, looking at those image some texts communicate effectively using high degrees of redundancy where as others had high degrees of entropy.
The class were set a similar task but this time to apply our gained knowledge of the terms redundancy and entropy to music video's. As a class we analysed Lady Ga Ga's music video Telephone. After our practise analyse we were asked to chose a couple of own music video's to analyse to see what makes them entropic or redundant.
My first music video I decided to analyse was another Lady Ga Ga's, Alejandro video which had both redundancy and entropy present thought it. Lady Ga Ga is known for her eccentric persona so audiences expect her to produce quirk, initiative, entropic music video's that will entertain and push boundaries.
Below have added a link to my word document which I have created to contrast the radundancy and entropy of the Alejandro music video.
