for castle, tlk bout economic, social, philosophical paradigms. look at the different economic values of AirLink and the kerrigan's, have a look at the kerrigans attitude towards life and their local values. also hav a look at how the global is presented, and the affect its having on the kerrigans

had a breakdown we did for the castle...

scientific
* negatives seen as +ve
-powerlines- "man's ability to generate electricity"
-aeroplanes
* TV
-shows they watched, "hey hey..." and "prce is right"...austrialian content in media is appreciated.
* "Xerox" photocopier. the 'global' entity that doesnt work.
*Rejection and Embracement=> seen thru steve's 'inventions'

religious
* family life
-unity
-protection
-upheld over the evil of company
*global religion not shown
*sport [aussie] religion shown
*lack of knowledge or global culture
*bonnie dune = nirvana

philosophical
*male-dominant society
-when they receive notice from council, daryll is in the center reading. camera shot focused on him
-sally's clothes, pink rubber gloves
*challenging council = local rejects global
-differences in the attire of the coucil lady and daryll.
*daryll's behaviour, sense of togetherness for the whole community[street]

economic
*barlow group = global company
*expansion of airport
-growth
-symbol of the world becomming a smaller place
*capitalist society
*daryll's thinking..."cant buy what i have", referring to his 'home'.
