  • I thought the class was cool too. I never went out to see shows or performances or anything, but I finally had the chance to do that through this class, and now I'm planning on visiting things like that often. I hated the midterm, though. I don't know how I did so badly on it. Oh well. Hope the final is better. Oh, and I wish we got to see all of the TAs perform. That would have been cool. OR what would have been even cooler is if the TAs put on a group performance and mixed all the different things they do.
  • I am extremely sad to see my favorite class at UCLA come to an end. From the guest speakers that have come to class to the student performances we have experienced, Arts and Architecture 10 has truly encompassed the most diverse elements a class could possible contain. No where else could I have learned the true value of art, especially how diverse and entertaining it could be. I have learned to appreciate art more than I thought I could, and I randomly find myself now wanting to go to museums and attend theatrical events. I went to a fifth performance not only for extra credit, but because I wanted to; I was surprised with myself, but this class truly drove me to do it.
  • I really enjoyed the class performances thus far. I feel like everyone put a lot of thought and effort into them. I hope everyone liked our Bhangra performance, though it was my first time and I might have not been the best. I'm curious to see how exactly Professor Winter is going to incorporate the student performances into the final exam.
  • I've been looking at everyone's wdydwyd pictures, and it's amazing to see the different responses everyone has to that question. I never really thought about how different people could be; this project actually seems to bring out a perspective of life I never even tried to fathom. I appreciate this project after seeing the thought that everyone put in to answering the question.
  • "Simplicity is underestimated too often nowadays"

     

    This sentence has many meanings in my life, for example:

    I wasted so much time on perfecting things that were fine or even better before I made changes.

    Or at times I enjoy some traditional conventions more than innovative technologies.

  • "No Shame Jane. Boop bleep boop."

     

    I unknowingly embarrass myself all the time. And I'm not too chicken to do something. Mostly cause I don't realize the embarrassing consequences that may follow after. But that's me, whatever.

     

    BTW, who wants to do the extra credit performance?!

  • "Stop finding the easy way out."

     

    Throughout my whole life, I've always had this skill of figuring out how to achieve a certain goal with the least amount of effort or energy. I'm naturally drawn to shortcuts and I know it's not a good thing because I've learned that there are no shortcuts in life.

  • A 6 word sentence that defines me would probably be "Angel in action, Devil in words"

    I am a quiet person most of the time, but when I speak, my friends would be shocked. I like to say whatever I am thinking at the moment, and I usually do not think before I speak out. Therefore, they will think I am a mean person. However, I love to help people as much as I can. As a result, my friends usually say I am nice when I don't say anything.

  • A 6 word sentence that describes me would be "I desire something greater than myself."
  • "Epitome of procrastination at its best." Come on, we all like to put things off till the last minute and enjoy the rush (or fear) of completing it right on the dot. We study for 15 minutes and take an hour-long break. Although I try (very hard) to snap out of it at times, I can't deny that I am the typical college kid that likes the thrill of last minute pressure.

When was the last time you participated in art (someone elses or your own) outside of this class?

I think it is great that this class exposes students to many different forms or art, but I'm also curious as to what students were viewing before this class.  I would occasionally watch performances at the Ahmanson Theater in L.A. as well as community performances.  However those were mostly all plays.   What have you been doing or will do now after taking this course? It is not just restricted to live performances. The "Boldest thing you've ever done" public art project was brilliant although…

On-Campus Event on March 3, 2011! For the extra-credit essay!

This may or may not be considered spam, but since I'm in this class and would definitely take advantage of this on-campus concert opportunity (if I was not actually in it), I thought I would let you know that...   ...if you need another event for the extra credit essay that we can write, come see Random Voices A Cappella on Thursday, March 3, at 6 PM!  This concert, featuring 14 of your fellow, female Bruins, will be held in the Outdoor Auditorium of the Fowler Museum and will probably be a…

What concerts and bands have you seen lately?

I was wondering what concerts and performing artist you have seen lately and what artist you recommend. Why did you enjoy their performance and what made it speacial?   I recently saw Switchfoot in concert and they were probably the best band I have ever seen live. Their energy and music speaks to me and I feel an emotional attachment to their music now.
