Student Reflection & Course Assignment

Liberal arts teach through examination and through the opportunity of how to use this knowledge and expertise that one has gained to improve one's art/craft. Learning how to organize in relation to creating a responsive manifesto was very liberating for me.  In this excursion I created a concrete poem of “pop CORN” that captured the kinetic power of popping corn.

This artifact taught me at of how to organize my own manifesto and to use new techniques to craft poems.
