Project Comments, Part 5: Oral Presentations

It's a misnomer to say that this post is a "Comments" post, because I already gave 1-on-1 feedback to the students who gave oral presentations as their Performance and Technology projects.  But I just want to give a shout-out to the oral presenters, all of whom did amazing and really intelligent and insightful talks - most of which, sadly, only I got to enjoy: Jennifer (on the Post Secret site), Arielle (on the history of hip-hop), Mark (who taught me about Artaud's Jet de Sang, for which I will forever be grateful), Josh (on Eagle Eye), Stacey, Jonathan A. (on Sweeney Todd, comparing the stage and screen versions), Torree (on playwright Suzan Lori-Parks), and Elizabeth (who gave one of the greatest explanations I've ever ever heard of my favorite sci-fi movie, 2001: A Space Odyssey), Kristin (on the cyberattacks in Estonia in 2007) plus Jon Brooks, who did a terrific performance for the entire class about everyday life being like a technological performance.
