Weekly Assignments

...

3. For each composer and his work assigned for listening, please write a journal entry (blog entry) in your Personal Space on the NUS Wiki.  This blog entry shoould should be a few paragraphs in length and address your reflections on that composer's music and aesthetic.  Relate it to some or all of the five orientation topics under which we will discuss each composer - technology, sound, politics, global intersections, and processes/systems.  Write your blog entries over the weekend about the composer(s) discussed during that week.  They are officially due by Sunday at 11:59pm. For instance, the blog entry for John Cage is due midnight on Sunday, Week 4 at 11:59pm. I hope that each student reads each other students' blog and adds comments when they are particularly struck by something.  These comments will contribute to student assessment.
