When looking for initial ideas, I began to think of areas around the idea of ‘shopping’ and ‘retail therapy’.  What stuck out for me was how shopping supposedly  increases peoples moods, bringing a sense of self-satisfaction. But, does one merely shop for satisfaction? Or do the corporate companies of the world perpetuate a greed driven society in which the capitalist system is constantly driving forward the ideas of  wanting more. What gets me is when will anyone be satisfied with the amount of ‘stuff’ they have?. What also struck me, is the word ‘therapy’. It could be interesting to look further into how shopping can be seen as a potential stress-relief or a therapy and what effect that has on people. As the process progresses, it will be interesting to see how we can mold these ideas and thoughts into a performance.
