You should be submitting your excerpts to all of your colleagues for peer editing by tonight, 8-12pp, tomorrow morning at the very latest, to give everybody the time they need to read your work properly and comment on it helpfully. I'll begin class by reminding you what is happening the next four weeks, so that you can have a better sense where you stand in the process. Hope everybody had a good weekend, d

Remember: Thursday Presenters Need to Distribute Excerpts By, Like, NOW

I think pasting this into "Send to" should reach everybody. Is there anybody this misses? Let me know!

bori.kim@gmail.com, charlottemiller86@gmail.com, dalec@berkeley.edu, darinallenbauer@yahoo.com, marly.hammer@gmail.com, edippo@artists.sfai.edu, clauschidlow@gmail.com, AMBswede@gmail.com, cartyml@yahoo.com, mefoyer@gmail.com, insoumis31@gmail.com, gertiesalice@gmail.com, fridacano@gmail.com, meredithleigh.carty@gmail.com

It's crucial that folks have enough time to read and thoughtfully comment on the material you are presenting, else this is a futile exercise. Get on it.

Recall, this is just an 8-12 pp. excerpt focused on the description, contextualization, and analysis of an object, probably the one with which you feel comfortable and familiar already. (I note also that there is an open slot for presentations this Thursday, and possibly there is also a person who has not yet volunteered to present? Nudge? Nudge?)

Comments

If any of you happen to generate summarizing comments that you end up sending directly to your colleagues electronically -- say, in addition to the annotations you provide on the papers themselves -- be sure to post those general comments here on a blog to ensure everybody has the benefit of them (either before or after seminar, it doesn't matter really). We will discuss our observations of and suggestions for your excerpts around the seminar table in the workshop -- but sometimes general impressions get overlooked, or we run out of time, or the conversation drifts to a different focus from yours, and useful ideas are missed that might be continued grist for the mill here online.
