Speaking of interpretations, here is a short interpretation of Cheever’s “The Enormous Radio”:
[Sept 25, 2015] Sculpture from Katsuyo Aoki (Hi-Fructose vol 21 2011)
From the article in Hi-Fructose: Aoki says that she is “most inspired by periods in art history that represent times of existential transition and upheaval in the art world (not to mention ones of significant flourish): the baroque and rococo, the gothic, and the expressionist niche of the postmodern” (47).

The Daily Goth is a space for students to post their ideas on the gothic. More specifically, each student will be asked to present a Daily Goth at least once this semester (we will design a schedule). The presentation should explain to the class what the example is and why it is gothic. Students should turn in a typed summary of their presentation (about one page) to Prof. Scanlan after the presentation. This assignment will be part of the participation grade.
