Final BLOG

      This class was very useful for me and I have learned a lot of new staff. I learned about symbols and archetypes. I have learned about myself, my own archetype. I found out that I am an orphan and it was not a big surprise for me, but during the class I learned a lot about orphan archetype. I read the book Coraline and it helped me as well. I mean while my reading I was looking at the main character – Coraline like at me. It helped me a lot to understand her and her actions. “Archetype can also help you to realize your potential in life and face with who you really are. My archetype helps to transform my view of this world to others and help me realize creativity and effectiveness. “Coraline” by Neil Caiman helped me to understand my archetype in different way." (from my earlier blog)

         I also learned symbols and how to see them and see what they mean. We discussed the Shakespeare poem ”Macbeth” and in the beginning it was very hard for me, but with the help of professor I kind of started to understand it better and after seeing all symbols, they actually helped me to understand the poem. And the same with “Goblin Market”. Knowing symbols really helped me to read it and understand it.

       So I think this class helped me a lot in understanding literature and I think in future it will be easier to read books, especially poems.

       I was impressed by the final project of Benjamin Chivas.First of all the whole idea was really cool and I never actually heard about it that close. I mean I heard about it but I never faced it. So his project I think was the best and it impressed me in many ways. The quality of the project was very great, and the music choice….was fantastic. The music was scary and was changing just in time, in a right way. And the whole information and the sound of “these things”, it was really amazing.

     He did a really good job, and I am sure that he spent a lot of time. His project made me interested in these sounds and I think that I would like to dig more information about it and make my own research. Because if it is a true and we can hear these voices, so maybe they are trying to worn us or to tell us something important. I think I will definitely do my own research.
