For Thursday

If you're already in class, you've probably noticed that I'm away again - I apologize for having to be away 3 times so close together.
Here's the plan for the future.
We are starting a new section/project that will take us through to the end of the semester, this one on sequence. Look here for details, under project 4, of course.
Today, Bonnie will be showing you a few things that should serve as starting points of inspiration - including video, books and comics. There is also a "virtual guest lecture" that everyone needs to watch, by Lawrence Lessig and some other online examples that you should experience: Chris Marker's "Le Jetée", Animation by Chris Ware for This American Life, Scott McCloud's "The Right Number" + Can't Stop Thinking, Amos Latteier's Model Notes Lecture. I strongly suggest watching these in class, but please use headphones for the examples with audio (you can get some from the check out window if needed).
There is also a reading (Jonathan Lethem's "Ecstasy of Influence" for Harper's) for next week, along with the usual blog post response. We will discuss all of this: the reading, the lecture and the assignment, as well as finish looking at everyone's montage, on Tuesday.
