DISCUSSION QUESTION
We are exploring cultural works and their value. Think of an object from the world around you that has a particular meaning or personal value to share with the class, one that holds particular significance. It can be a song, a dance performance, a painting, a figurine, a meme, and so on. It can be any work that has historical or cultural value. This cultural work does not have to be the same as the one you are proposing for this week's milestone.
- Identify the creator of the work, if known, and describe what cultural events you think influenced the artist to create this work.
- Pick one or two characteristics that move you the most.
- Describe how these characteristics affect your experience and led you to interpret the cultural work the way you did.
DISCUSSION QUESTION
When you explore the concept of cultural works, you realize that you use, create, and observe cultural works in your everyday life without thinking much about it. In this discussion, you will analyze a cultural work from your daily life.
First, choose a modern-day cultural work from one of the following categories, one that is different from the one you selected in the Module Two discussion:
- A TV show episode, movie, podcast, or song of your choice (for example: the song "Empire State of Mind" by Jay-Z and Alicia Keys, the movie Get Out, or an episode of the series Game of Thrones)
- A painting, photograph, image from a social media post, or another work of art (for example: graffiti by the artist Banksy)
- A brand, logo, or mascot (for example: Disney or the Nike "swoosh")
