"You can be creative only if you love life enough that you want to enhance its beauty, you want to bring a little more music to it, a little more poetry to it, a little more dance to it.” – Osho

Next week, remember that we are not meeting as a class in our classroom. Individual advising appointments are in my office instead. Take the extra time to make your video awesome and maybe get a jump on reading the Twyla Tharp book. Also, don't forget to blog!

Blogging assignments are:

1) Find a sculpture or piece of artwork on campus. Post a photo and give the title, artist if available, and the location on campus. Describe it in detail and discuss what you like (or not) about it, then offer an interpretation of what it represents, means, or tries to accomplish.

2) Report on your midterm grades for all of your classes and discuss. If these were your final grades, what would your GPA be? How satisfied are you with your performance? Do your grades represent the amount of time and effort you feel you were putting in? This blog post is due on Friday instead of Wednesday in order to give everyone time to get their grades from Banner or email your professors if your grades are not yet posted.

One last note: here are two more sites with creativity inspiration in case you need any for your video project:
