12/22/18: anything you want to send into the future? 🔮
Hi everybody,
Most Cooper classes somehow begin anew each season, but I maintain that Projects is a continuum. For example: this semester didn't start with a "first class" ... instead, we all jumped in mid-stream at Class 59.
To this end, I've been collecting some of our bits-and-pieces on a class wiki, and I'll spend some time over the break updating the site with documentation from the past two semesters:
http://projectsthecooperunion.wiki
Here you'll find brief descriptions of meetings, pictures, readings, people we've met with, and places we've trekked. (It's hard to believe that there's been 75 meetings since Projects began in Fall 2016 🙀) See below for the full list ... yellow highlight = us.
If there's anything you'd like to contribute to this class archive or send along into the future 🔮 for the consideration of subsequent generations of Projects participants, go ahead & drop it here:
📥
https://www.dropbox.com/request/N8keQX1OrLiyoUEXd6zr
📥
This could include presentations you've given, texts or notes you've written, pictures or videos, readings or other texts that were on your mind, something you never showed, or anything else you'd like to record here for posterity.
Thank you for being part of Projects this past semester!!
Have a good break!
And see you in the new year,
Casey
