Earlier thoughts on Bill Viola’s “Will There Be Condominiums in Dataspace?”

Thank you Gardner! Definitely chose purge deliberately. And of course I am called to restore the material — I was so surprised that it had been deleted! It may not happen until the rush of the semester (and ccourses) eases up, but I am on it. And I will keep you posted. Also, Laika appreciates that you also cherish her cultural Nachleben. 😉

Thanks, Jessit07!
I am not sure if unseen (often mental or emotional) dis/abilities are more easily accepted as much as they are simply unknown without disclosure– and disclosure is a risk for many students due to stigmas.

I completely agree with you. Sometimes we think inclusion and diversity are related to things we see, but there are many aspects that are not so easy to identify. And it is true, we all can have some level of disability at some point, so we have to be more sensitive towards the topic.
Thanks for sharing the movie too!

Jordan – I really liked that you drew your post away from the more typically considered aspects of diversity. I never particularly thought about the mental diversities between us – and I’m sure I’m not alone on that.

Do you think that these dis/abilities and interpersonal differences are more easily accepted as a general rule because they are (perhaps) more difficult to discern and consequently less commonly perceived?

Good luck with your class! Keep us posted and share your experience whenever you get a chance,

So much fun. Sounds like a great time. And such thoughtful reflections by students. Congrats!

Very cool project. It is good to have exemplars as resources for current or future reference.
Thanks for sharing!
