2 questions...from before..(a little late)
In the first video we watched last Thursday we saw Martin Seligman talk about three types of happy lives. 1. A pleasant life. 2. A life of flow (focused activity in which time seems to stop) and finally, 3.a life of meaning. I want you to think of / describe  a specific time in which you experienced “flow” or when you witnessed it in someone else. I’m very curious about this phenomenon. I think...

More questions...oh yes...
1. My favorite music video is Eminem’s Mosh music video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HvVIAAmQGcI&feature=channel I really enjoy this video because of its cultural relevance and its unorthodox way of tackling serious subject matter with an animated cartoon. The video creates a mood that immediately captures you with its anti-bush campaign and brings us together with a common theme to...

Questions....more questions...
1. What can you do for / in your video introduction that can make it stand out from everyone else’s videos?  The only unacceptable answer is “Myself” or “I can be myself’. Why unacceptable? Because…Who cares? It’s not who you are. It’s what can you do? 2. Generally speaking, how are you feeling about school? Are you in the right place / department? How can you tell? 1. What I can do is...

theramenking: nfluence08: illmasta: yes. its true. there is definitely a shortage of them.

yes indeed
Landing an art job is like being a porn star: you don’t always get to choose who’s fucking you, but in the end it’s money in the bank and you’ll do whatever it takes to not have to go back to bartending. -chinagreenelvis this is definitely going on stewart’s facebook quotes.

Second weekly questions
1. What separates Fine Art and Commercial Art…. especially within moving image work?(qualification:  Don’t go into “One is boring and one is interesting.” Let’s consider that you need to see enough of something before you can really judge that. What if a “knee-jerk” response is not enough?) I think what separates fine art from commercial art is the amount of exposure to the masses. For instance,...

1. My biggest influences have been, and probably always will are video games and comic books. I love how these are becoming the new story telling medium as opposed to conventional means like movies and novels. However, as a child, my biggest influences were admitingly just like every other kid’s. The Dragonball Zs, the Spidermans, Xmens, etc. Artists wise, my biggest influence is definitely...
