I read Desiree's proposals for three new art courses and I really liked them. They are very different than what is usually offered, and I like how each class somehow makes a difference in the community. The artist as activist one sounds really cool. I think I would be interested in taking a class like that, because I think art should not only be used to be aesthetically pleasing, but for a purpose. There are so many things that students in college can fight for and why not use your skills and talents to make it happen? The spectacle praxes sounds really fun too, it almost reminds me of the flash mobs we did this quarter. I think a whole class on performance art would be so interesting and I could get a lot from the course. I think sometimes art classes through performance art at you and not really go into enough depth about why they are so interesting and how to be successful in doing one. So I think all three of the ideas are very original and I am sure students would sign up for them!
