Monday, Week 2

Remember to come with your typed "What is your nature?" introductory statement, along with having done the reading ("Preface" and pages 1-32 of Discovering Popular Culture). And be prepared to share your writing with the class. Here are the questions, for those those who may have lost the prompt!:

What is your nature? (100 points)

Pick one of the questions below to answer, using your choice as a way to introduce a bit about who you are to the class:

1) What do you, as an individual, do to reduce your impact (carbon footprint?) on the planet?

2) How have emerging technologies changed your relationship with other people, and with nature?

3) What role have religious/spiritual traditions and texts played in determining your relationship with the natural world?

4) What role does the natural world play in your own artistic ambitions/projects?

*Feel free to, with this assignment, interpret and “play” with the question you choose to answer. The goal for all of us to learn about ourselves and about others by reflecting on these questions.
Please, go beyond simple answers. Make us interested.
