This video might be a little nerdy.
Anyway, this is how this class is making me read now. Focusing more about how effects are made and how the book wants me to think. I don't really see anymore into truth or lies in things now, but I am starting to think more about if effects are intentional or accidental and if things can be different for different people.
3 gold stars for Thomas! (You said "nerdy," so I'm just playing along.) But seriously... this is fan-freakin-tastic--an excellent example of what it is I hope you will begin to take away from this course. It's not necessarily about reading novels (although, in my opinion, that's certainly a nice bonus); it is about realizing that much of what you encounter out in everyday life can be read--and has often been designed--as a text... a text capable of manipulating you... just as you could be capable of manipulating it... if, indeed, you learn "to observe and to experience" simultaneously. Great post!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to say that I thought the video was actually really interesting and cool even though I barely play video games (read: I only play mario kart wii or super mario brothers on occasion).
