I am the instructor for this class. Actually there are two courses, one graduate seminar and one undergraduate. Both classes are viewing KateModern along with a range of other digital and analog works. The students are part of an Arts and Technology Program, aimed to produce and critique art in the age of computers.

(and no, lighting your farts on fire will not get you credit, unless of course you are able to persuasively argue for “fart lighting” as an important and influential digital art form . . . )

Ha! How ironic, my homework has been seriously neglected at the hand of LG15.
But that is awesome. There’s not a young person alive today who has access to the internet and doesn’t know who Lonelygirl15 is. In my book that qualifies as worth studying.

oh, i forget to say in my snark, that is is pretty cool that college students have to study KM. there’s no doubt that KM and LG15 are groundbreaking and influential.

oh, i so hope that tampax ad was in the first 35 episodes.

seriously though, look at that class description. “Regardless of where one takes up position along this spectrum, the now ubiquitous potential of the digital text…”?? you need a Ph.D. to write (bull)shit like this, its a requirement.

“Students will produce critical and creative work for class.”
(p.s. lighting your farts and posting video of that on youtube WILL qualify for course credit)

Well… I’m a french teacher, in Communication and “Internet culture”. Since 2006, I always start the semester by showing two or three episodes of LG15 (that i’ve subtitled in french, of course…) to my student. And we all analyse the phenomenon…
LG15 is definitely educational…
