Blogging Around

Blogging Around: Kimmy D and Marie T

To start off the blogging around entry, I couldn't agree more with Kimmy D's blog entry.  She did the change of mind entry and experienced the stages of her point of view and how it evolved as she learned more and more about the idea of modernism and postmodernism.  She also shared a great example which also helped me in understanding more about the ideas.

Hey Kimmy! When I started the reading I was seeing more and more connection to my experience.  Just like how you felt, I did not have much of an idea about modernism and postmodernism.  However, it changed completely.  I agree with how commercials and movies that we saw as the examples in class truly gave us more clear view of the ideas.  I really liked how you sum up all the things that you learned at the end neatly. Nice job!

In Marie T's blog entry, she talked about her confusion about the two ideas: modernism and postmodernism.  What caught my attention when I read this was that she used an honest voice in her entry which made me want to know more about the later stories.  She also shared great examples in order to visualize her point.

Hey Marie! First of all, I really liked the honest tone that you used in order to show your point and confusion that you had in the beginning.  I don't think I have ever seen a writing this honest and straight forward.  Anyways, similar to your experience I really had no idea about the two ideas: modernism and postmodernism.  However, as I saw different examples such as an architecture comparing the two different eras, my mind started to change also.  Great job!
