Alrighty then.
Final project has been handed in, forgot to number my pages but oh well.
I am glad I stayed in this class. I didn’t want to at first. I enjoyed writing the blog posts, I don’t normally get the chance to write. It helped me ingrain things I learned in class. It got harder towards the end of the semester.
This class helped me learn its okay to not have the answers about big issues. It also taught me to have an informed opinion, an opinion based on something other than just because. It’ can be difficult to have an opinion about race issues since I’m white, but it’s also important to realize that those issues are present.
I listen more closely to music, not sure if that’s a good or bad thing. I learned a bit more about music in general. I am more appreciative about how far certain forms of technology has traveled to wind up where we are today.
The internet is an impressive tool, to put it lightly.
Vannever Bush and Claude Shannon are awesome. Nicholas Carr, not so much. Nick Tosches is obsessive. Cats should never be used as phones. In my own opinion of course.
Looking forward to not being at GMU for a few weeks. in need of a vacation.
