IMC has become a very large and unidentifiable mass of ideas and influences in my mind, and hopefully that's only because I'm not well (physically, not mentally). I'm beginning to grasp the depth of IMC and it can be staggering. When we dealt with a 'generic jeans company' for the first part of class Tuesday, the channels weren't clear, and I'm not sure we were accurate in our thoughts. The jeans project is tough for me to wrap my head around, and I agree that, in future cohorts, a choice should be allowed in order for each graduate learner to use his or her experience to guide them through some of what is being taught. For this week's written project (individual), the press release - the way in which things are written is in direct contrast with what I'm used to doing - which is creative writing. I think that with more direction from our professors, we should all gain ground in how to properly write papers for graduate programs. It feels as if I've been doing things incorrectly all along at this point, but will do my best to get it right this time. Factual writing can be dull, but has its place. Creative writing often is not dull, although subject matter can prove that to be untrue.
My press release isn't dull, but the subject matter makes it easier for it to be interesting.
I'm done blathering now.
