Discussing “Ways of Seeing”

To discuss “Ways of Seeing,” and to begin our blogging in earnest, we will attempt a sequence that puts everyone in conversation. The person in Role 1 will write a post (category “Reading Discussion,” tag “Ways of Seeing” Part [1, 2, 3, or 4], plus any other relevant tags) approximately 200-300 words long, in which they consider the assigned video. The people in Role 2 and Role 3 will write a comment that is approximately 200-300 words.

To do so, choose one of the following roles for the first day. You will cycle through all three roles. You are of course welcome to comment additionally!

Here’s where it might seem complicated: follow the due dates for your particular role. I will update this with your initials so you know what to do when.
