- Class Notes:
- Ekphrastic writing has traditionally involved the description of visual art as a means of framing arguments and observations. In our course, we'll stretch out, engaging cinema, performance, music, GIFs, etc. - sometimes describing, but often inhabiting, critiquing, and building associative connections between the artwork and our writing. To scaffold our experiments, we will explore multiple modes of ekphrasis, including synthesis, live film narration, textual recordings, and critical karaoke.
