Inside our intimate relationships, inside our heads and inside our identities.

How is Commercial (EDIT from Consumer) Culture is now inside our intimate relationships, inside our heads and inside our identities.

That is my Major Personal Interest Project for grade 12 over here in Sydney, class Society and Culture.

Any thoughs, discourse would be kindly appreciated. I have to use the concepts of
Persons-
Society-
Environment-
Culture-
Time-

Wow...that is a rather complex issue. Sounds like an interesting topic, though, shouldn't be hard to find sources for it.

It does of course depend on how you are going to define "consumer culture". Are you looking at how brand name awareness is important (ie, we're not happily married unless we are a Sony family) or is it more of a financial issue (ie we have to earn and spend as much as everyone else to be happy)?

Can you elaborate a little on what the choice of concepts mean? I understand the first 4 (I think) but why do you include time? Just curious. I know that for myself time is an extremely valuable resource and something that is seriously lacking in my life. It is definitely related to consumer culture in some ways but I'm not quite sure how.
