Overview: The three main conspiracy theories my partner and I choose were;
1. The end of the world ending in fire or ice,
2. The Mandela effect and;
3, The Ouija Board
We also choose to focus on the deep state conspiracy theory for our social studies portion of the project.

Art: For the art portion of our project we decided to create an at piece for all three of out original theories.
End of the world- My partner and I woke up at 5:00 A.M. to get to Rocky Ridge in York PA by 6:00 A.M. to snap and good photo of the overlook before the sunrise. We took and few pictures with different lightings and finally landed on one we both agreed upon. We then came back to the school and used the app Photo Shop to edit our picture. After editing the minor details we spit the photo in half, unevenly, and on one half we altered the filters to create a red setting to represent fire and on the other side we edited the filters to change the setting to blue for ice. The Mandela Effect- For the Mandela effect conspiracy theory we created a video. We interviewed people in and out of school asking them the following questions;
English- For each theory we created speeches either supporting or disagreeing with the conspiracy. After deciding if we personally agreed or disagreed we found speeches online for the opposing argument. We then went through and highlighted all the points the opposing speech made and counter argued them. End of the World- For the end of the world speech, we agreed with the theory. We believe that, in one way or another, the world will eventually end. Mandela Effect- For the Mandela effect speech, we disagreed with the conspiracy. We do not think the Mandela effect is real, rather just a lack of memory. Ouija Board- Lastly, for the ouija board speech we support the conspiracy. We think disagree with the rumors that your subconscious moves the bored. We believe with theory because of person experience and a lot of research done by us. Social Studies- For the social studies portion of our project, we had to find a way to link conspiracy theories to civics. We could not figure out how to link civics to our first three theories, therefore we added another to our project. We added the theory that the Deep State insist within our U.S. government, conspiring against Donald Trump, while working for him. As the final product for this portion we made a news letter explains the reasoning behind why people think the deep state is real. We also created two political cartoons reflecting the deep state. |
