About Journals and Readings

From Carl:

In response to some questions on where the Vito Acconci
writings are:

1) From the Libraries page, go to Reserve and E-Reserve

2) Under instructors, select Bogner and click on Search

3) Click on the first listing is FILM201 Electronic Reserve readings.

4) Click on "Link to electronic reserve readings"

5) The Acconci writings are listed first. Enjoy!

From Me:

Don't stress about making your blogs brilliant, okay? If you want
to stressabout something,
stress about being honest and forthright.
The fodder for thought this
week had to do with what I wrote about
in my journal, and whatwe talked about in class:
Are there narrative
aspects to what we have been watching? And if not, then what brings
us in,
what keeps our attention? I talked about how, for me,
I have to think of the imagery as a kind
of narrative, I have to look
for repeated colors and shapes to hold on to in order to involve

myself with the film. How about you? Which films that we have
watched in class did you most respond to?
Which did you find yourself
wrapped up in? Which made you restless or bored?
And brainstorm on WHY.
