The image cloud was a really nice way of visualizing media interactions and made a lot of sense to me considering most media we respond to on a daily basis is also visual. However, it is unclear to me whether these images are representative of all media you experienced in a day, or things you may have seen just on the internet. The internet is surely a huge source of media interaction in our lives, but focusing on just the internet wouldn't be a holistic look at media exposure. "The media" contains a vast range of things and it would make more sense to me to include more of a range of things.
In our summary, I liked that you looked at common media tropes, like smiling happy people and sexuality. I think another thing to consider would be "shock value". Think when you look at a clickbait article titled something like "10 things you can actually eat, number 8 will amaze you!" In addition to other commonalities in medias, I think you could have reflected more on the kind of worldview these things create, or how you personally responded to these media influences in your day.
