Workshop WED!
Yesterday I had my workshop with Jim and for some reason I wasn't in a good mood. I think the reason was because the workshop with Jim before yesterdays, we got really emotional and I didn't want to get upset again, and by not wanting to get upset I got myself upset...PARADOX (kind of, not really). But Nicole Buancore came up to me after the workshop and told me "You looked the angriest that I've ever seen". I like Jim's workshop, but I just need to approach it in a different way, basically I need to be optimistic about his class as I should be with everything in this world. I'm in the middle of reading Wittgenstein's Poker and The Cather in the Rye and both books bounce off eachother so much it's amazing, I suggest you do the same when I finish reading Wittgenstein's, trust me! I fell in love with a quote by Wittgenstein that I compare it to me own life so much and I think it's the best quote in the world, the quote is, "Memory: I see us still, sitting at that table. But have I really the same visual image- or one of those that I had then? Do I also certainly see the table and my friend from the same point of view as then, and not see myself?"-Wittgenstein. I feel like the second I finish this book I'll be going insane making connections from the book to not only my life, but others around myself. I'm so glad you lent me this book! I hope we do something Phylisophical next year in STAC! Onwards and upwards!

Ah, Wittgenstein... I love him.
ReplyDeleteThings are always philosophical in STAC - what is Run Lola Run but philosophy by camera angle?
Where are your test shots?
