- What was new to you in IS2?/ what is one thing that you learned that was new to you on 2/2/18?
Well, on Friday February Second, I learned my memory was actually a little disrupted from my fall on Tuesday, January 29th. I also experienced embarrassment and shame which is not a new feeling, although not a common sensation I feel. In IS2, well, it was a new experience to miss class from falling down the stairs.
- What is one thing that you found interesting from class on 2/2/18?
In the time that class was happening, It was interesting the shame I felt. I tripped while trying very hard not to trip, also the shame I felt from having a black eye. Later that day I did my self portrait in the bathroom, which I keep wanting to redo- (just make it more…wild)
- In IS 2 (Sem or Studio have you dome any “spelunking” Did you do any “cave exploration” – for either IS class, or anything else that captured your attention this week?
Well, I was living in a basement which I made a fuzzy little cave. Since then I have moved out- (I moved out last Saturday) I kind of miss it.. but I have mixed feelings
- What is one question you have from class on 2/2/18 class?
Why do I still feel a residual feeling of shame?
- What is one noticing you made about the Roland Barthes. Mythologies?
Well… Mythologies is a complicated text. I had to re read it a few times very slowly to wrap my head around it. Although it really gives me a lot of freedom and I feel like nothing is absolute- as everything- anything is up for interpretation and is subjective to cultural norms and the time period. Also, everything is subject to change. More recently I have become fixated on things a few years ago I wouldn’t have, my morals have changed as I am slowly starting to live a slightly more bourgeois life….
- What is one question you have from the reading/ about the reading?
From the reading.. The Hare with Amber Eyes.. what makes one obsessive over detail, and why is this sometimes looked down upon?
- What connections have you made between IS 2 (so far) class and any other class you are taking? (Referring to content – or structure.)
IS 2, choosing my words more carefully, and how I communicate verbally. Why some things are more easy to say than others, and question emotions that arise due to the social constructs in society- like what is good, bad, shameful, ect
