This semester has been a very interesting one indeed. CS has solidified a lot of my notions and ideas about our world as well as opening my realm of perception to many new ones. Learning a lot of the terminology about popular and high culture, the different schools of thought, and aspects of the panopticon has undoubtedly helped me, and will continue to do so for the rest of my life. Post-modernism was of special interest to me. I chose to do my presentation on it with only a glimmer of pre-held understanding; with no inkling whatsoever about how important it is to me. I've been using post-modernist techniques in my work for a long time now without even knowing it. Learning about it as a whole has given me a better perspective on my work and the tools I need to re-evaluate my plan of attack. This, coupled with further elucidation of the deteriorating state of our culture, has given me an extremely amplified drive to produce cultural artifacts of meaning.
