We decided to visit the Canopy Market in Kings Cross. At first it appeared a bit jarring to just approach someone and start talking to them but it turned out to be a good experience as it made me feel more comfortable and confident in doing it. As one of my group members was talking to the owner of a knitting stall, the knitting stall was being videotaped by a lady with a professional camera, thus as that seemed interesting to me I decided to approach her, who turned out to be a social media professional helping her friend, after that we interviewed a jewellery stall owner and a baker.

After learning more about them and their work, I asked them what the future of work looked like to them and they believed that even though machines will take over, their role in the job was also important enough to not be replaced. I also got to know many new things, such as the process of making artworks by one of the stalls, who told us that he sent his art to a chinese manufacturer who then had workers replicate it in an assembly line and sent back to the uk to be sold, which was interesting to me as I never imagined independent artists doing that. Overall it was a good experience as I learnt more about interacting with strangers to get their views on a subject.
