Assignment: response to Tahoe Timescape panel discussion

There was only time for three questions at the panel, so only Deja snuck in under the wire - she's the only one who doesn't have to do a short written response to the panel discussion.Instead of posting video (which would be boring to watch), I've posted an audio file. So you can listen to it while you're having dinner or sweeping or whatever. I'll give you about a week to listen to this and turn in your printed responses - they're due on Tues, Oct. 30.

Here are the questions I want you to answer. Take at least a paragraph to answer each:

1. We've discussed the idea behind the exhibition in class. Jonathon explained more about the project _ what was something new you learned about the project, or some new (for you) thought/idea about the project, that came out of the panel discussion?

2. What did you think of what the scientist on the panel, Geoff Schladow, had to say? How does his data-driven relationship to the lake connect to some of the artistic ideas in the exhibition, and how is that relationship different from the kind of artistic ideas behind the exhibition?

3. Deja asked a question about how youth could be engaged in the issues of looking toward the future, particularly in relationship to how embedded they are in technology. Please summarize Jonathon's answer to her question - and explain if you found the answer to be a convincing one or not.
