In regards to Roberts blog, I too would like to comment on the class. I initially took this class because it was the only night class that fit my schedule, and it sounded somewhat interesting. I wasn’t quite sure what I would learn from or about media, but after all these weeks of class and reading, I’ve really had a hindered approach to the various types of media around me, and how they all work together. At least now I know when I’m in a store I shouldn’t let the music keep me in that store longer than I want to be there. And when I see something on the “news”, not to believe everything “reporter Joe” has to say. I would have to say the most interesting aspect of this class was how music can change our perception of something to a very intense degree. The train ride video we watched with the five or six different artists added to the clip really changed my idea of how much music can effect any situation I’m in. Funny how I felt comfortable watching the train pass through when It was music I enjoyed, and how on edge I felt with the same clip without any music added. Crazy. Anyway, I don’t know about the rest of you, but I got a lot out of this class, and look forward to living the day to day mediation we convince ourselves is “normal”. - Aaron
