For Thursday, I want you to post your two different versions of a scene for Essay 1 that you worked on during class on Tuesday. Â For instance, you might choose to represent your scene from the 3rd-person perspective of an onlooker’s phone and then write another version of the scene representing it from your own first-person perspective.
Along with your two versions of the scene, please include a brief description of the two different narrators/perspectives you used.
EXAMPLE
Wendyâs original, first-person perspective:
The only time Iâve witnessed internet addiction was when recently Iâm doing my own thing on my computer and my wifi has been shitty lately so whenever I load a tab, it would blank out for a sec. for that black second I saw my own reflection and I thought âwhat the hell am I doing with my life? Iâm literally sitting here, staring at a screen for hoursâ, but as soon as my page loaded I continued doing what I was doing. Sometimes or most of the times, I believe that we knowingly do or make mistakes even though we have an idea of what the consequences will be.
First-person plural narration, written from the perspective of âa mystery inside the boxâ:
Isnât it funny to watch how this user explodes when we cut the power to Firefox? Such a buggy browser in the first place, so maybe she doesnât even know itâs us processor chip guys pulling the old âglitchy tabâ trick. She probably doesnât even have a clue that we have access to the USB camera and can watch her grimace as she waits for the content to load. Oh, watch, there she goes⌠off to check the router situation again. Will these poor humans ever learn that itâs not bad WiFi thatâs plaguing themâitâs us?
