This quotes reminds me little of the action of states' rights. The states often find loop holes so they do not have to do something all the way. An example would be during the time that colored people were allowed to vote they decided to make them take literacy tests in order to stop them from voting. Also I learned in the article "States’ Rights & The Civil War" one of the causes of the Civil War was states' right clashing with the political power of the federal government. It is really interesting to see how this is similar to states rights as not giving these people their needs even though they are seen as free. It is sort of like an early echo of the civil rights era. States' Rights & The Civil War. (n.d.). Retrieved February 02, 2017

This reminds me of how the phrase "duckspeaking" is described in 1984. "depending on who is speaking, and whether what they are saying is in following with the ideals of Big Brother."

This actually reminds me of a think piece about sound in which the conclusion was that older audio technology "sounded" better due to the artifacts created by the outdated recording technology. Perhaps then, the "downsides" of older technologies create an underlying rhetoric while the user engages with the medium.

The "faults" of books are that they take up physical space, and are subject to damage. Likewise, they affect the senses more so than an e-book, beyond what is conveyed in their text. In that case, people used to using books would suddenly lose an entire rhetoric specifically related to the physical aspects of books. This would most certainly be jarring.

To jump on Kevin's earlier "Peirce bandwagon" (also learned from Juliana Chow) the search for mutual connection and understanding reminds me of this concept that Peirce calls the "commens" or the "commind." Essentially, there are three parts necessary for "signifying" something. You need an object, a sign, and an interpretant for both. Now, if the interpretant wishes to share the meaning of the sign and object with another interpretant, they must reach a level of shared context/culture/consciousness that Peirce calls the "commens." Basically it seems like Locke would agree with the theoretical model that Peirce laid out.

An interesting concept that emphasizes the total subjectivity of language; a word's meaning is rooted in a common agreement reached in society. This is not a revolutionary idea now, but still a simple fact that I believe is often forgot.

This reminds me of the discussion of colors in The Odyssey in Rickert's piece from last week. Blue is only blue because society has agreed on what blue is and how it is represented. As Homer's jarring use of colors demonstrates, the meaning of words such as "blue" are totally subjective.

Austin's direction of the body in such a mechanical manner actually reminds me of the modern playwright Samuel Beckett. Both Austin and Beckett are rigorously visual and controlling of their physical environment. I'm especially thinking of Beckett's "Imagination Dead Imagine" in the spatial and temporal way that it directs the reader (if reading the original prose) or the viewer (it was later adapted into play): "No way in, go in, measure. Diameter three feet, three feet from ground to summit of the vault. Two diameters at right angles AB CD divide the white ground into two semicircles ACB BDA. Lying on the ground two white bodies, each in its semicircle..."

Reminds me of Sarah and Hagar in the Bible. Sarah chose Hagar to bore Abraham a son by her own will

This line reminds me Henry Adam's "The Dynamo the virgin" when Du Bois mentions the source found in the brain is just tarnished and abused. Adams, on the other hand, makes reference to writers like Bret Harte and Walt Whitman objectifying sex in their work. Henry Adams takes issue with the fact those writers do not intend on using sex the right way. Both Adams and Du Bois take note of these forces of nature as being thrown to the side as if they were yesterday's garbage.

This reminds me of what we talked about in class relating to "The Dynamo and the Virgin" with the concept of creating a scene that is a perception of reality. When "the wild but sweet melodies" and "fairy tales and folklore" are mentioned, it comes back to that idea of perception of reality. The melodies were created as a form of expression of what the slaves were feeling. The fairy tales and folklore are another form of expression as well.

The veil that Du Bois speaks about reminds me of the force from Adams' piece. Both the veil and the force are things we cannot see but still exist in our everyday lives. They hold this power over us and compel us to live a certain way.

This section reminds me of Adams lamenting the fact that he had looked at all the art pieces and absorbed all the knowledge he could about Karl Marx and historical doctrines, yet he could not find a way to use and apply this knowledge. Similar to Adams' inapplicable knowledge, Du Bois is speaking on the stripping of power of the African American man. They have the abilities, the intelligence, the brightness, but repressive America "has often made his very strength to lose effectiveness." Both Adams and Du Bois speak of abilities they are unable to apply and use.

This reminds me of the juxtapositions we spoke about in "The Dynamo and the Virgin." Adams compared power vs beauty, letter vs art, facts vs feeling. Here DuBois is juxtaposing two forces in America: One is the mainstream white America that is "dusty desert of dollars and smartness" while Black America is "jovial," "soulful" and so on. Here one can say that DuBois is showing the two sides of America, one being all about capitalism and achievement, while Black America is about soul and feeling.

This reminds me of the Adams piece in that there is a sort of revelation. In Adams' case, he sees the world shift from one based on the arts to one that is technology based. For W.E.B. DuBois, it is a sudden realization that he is black, and therefore he is not the same as the others. In addition, this sort of calls to mind the theme of alienation as seen in Adams' piece.

From this excerpt, I am reminded of Henry Adams' piece because in a sense, this is Du Bois' "force" that he holds highly such as Adams had a "force," and his, too, was advancement. Du Bois' force is education because it is what will push him forward in his society if he advances in it such as the white Americans, while Adams' force was advancement in technology and how it changed him. This also reminds me of Douglass' narrative because he, too, like Du Bois, decided that education was an escape and small form of freedom from being oppressed by their society.

This idea of double consciousness immediately reminds me of the beginning of The Dynamo and the Virgin when we are introduced to the duality between religion and technology. However, while religion is shown as being threatened by the rise of technology, Du Bois doesn't wish for either halves of his identity to be ignored, merely exist as one.

Reminds me of Vannevar Bush's notation of amplification in the memex.

Reminds me of the Stoics, such as Epictetus, who said that humans more often than not make false judgments in a certain situation based on their "sentiments," (he didn't use this word but I think it works) which then causes individuals to experience a "passion," such as grief, anxiety, despair, or anger. Stoics argued that people should indeed attempt to judge a situation correctly in order to avoid being overcome by passions and instead find true happiness (which for them was probably more equivalent to our American culture's version of "okay-ness").

This reminds me of the stereo type about men becuase generally they prefer to be alone, oppose to women who look for relationships and also cling to the idea of marriage.

So for lack of a better phrase- Byron was "pimped out", in a sense. His persona was a money making machine.

It reminds me of the modern rockstar, Mathew Healy, from the 1975. He is aware that his bad-boy, chain-smoking, english bred image sells records and makes money. He has openly said that the character he is when on stage, in his music videos, photoshoots, etc- is not him. But people still buy the records and and want to believe in their image.

The story following this reminds me of my ancestors leaving Israel. My great grandfather (who I mentioned in a Macbeth response, way back, about how he died, and I regret the way I found out), my grandmother (who is still with us, but blind), and their immediate family left the middle east on a boat to France. However, they wanted to go to the U.S., so they switched ferries in the middle of the night, as they passed each other. If they hadn't, it turns out that they would've been caught in a war area, whether they went to France or stayed in the east. So that's why I'm alive today.

Reminds me of Doctor Who. Won't say more.

Reminds me of that time I went off on too many tangents.

This reminds me of a philosophical problem my father shared with me. A man is put in prison for a crime he didn't commit, and he always protested his innocence. Years later, the case is reopened, and they discover the truth. He is offered a pardon, but he refuses it. According to him, accepting that pardon acknowledges that they had the right to put him in there at all. Substitute the prison system for the system of aristocracy, and it's the exact same problem.

Reminds me of a doctor who story I read. Without the main plot of aliens, a boy and his family emigrated from Germany, and although his father had planned and rehearsed a long speech about how he was from a long line of so-and-so's, which would translate to Smith, he forgot every bit of the speech when he went up to the immigration desk from being seasick, and so said the first thing he saw, which was "Heftmaschine," or stapler. That definitely doesn't translate to English, so his whole family is made fun of for their undeniably German name. After the whole plot is resolved, the Doctor says "Well, Mr. Heftmaschine - amazing name, by the way. Never change it. It's time we were off." It is this small line that provides final resolution for the story (there was a motif of "the truth is relative, and rarely true enough for some"), because now the boy can see everything in a better light.

this reminds me of when we talked about leisure time in class. A desire for novelty/ a desire to pass the time away/ free time etc.

This is a really great SNA term/phrase. Generating big ideas from small observations is a nice description of SNA. It reminds me of the grounded theory approach in qualitative research.

This reminds me a course" the introduction of sociology", in that course, the instructor talked much about social relations embedding economy. He used Facebook (maturing cybernetworks) as an example to illustrate how Facebook uses social network to make money, it employs user data especially the friend relations to advertise and sell products to certain users. And a lot of vivid examples related to economic activities were presenting, such as how Chinese people or Jewish people use culture networks to conduct transactions abroad.

I hadn't really thought of SNA in these terms, though it does make sense. This reminds me of our current political situation. I wonder what work SNA has done to analyze this. I'm sure I could find some things, but if anyone's run across something they'd like to share, I know I'd be interested.

people often don't comprehend what they're actually consuming, which reminds me of the new Uber fiasco, where Trump-haters are shunning the app and its CEO for being tied to Trump

This line reminds me of the Paleolithic cave arts from prehistoric times. Based on mythology, whenever a human would create a cave painting of a wild horse, the humans would assume they have gained power over the creature and trap the horse so they can kill it. Could St. Gaudens be making a subtle reference of the myth about the horse?

This reminds me of the two types of thinkers, especially when it comes to religion. You have the people who believe the religion for everything that it is and then you have the ones who can believe in it but still tend to question the meanings behind it all.

This is another reoccurring idea throughout history. More specifically, it reminds me of today. Not because there is a strong pull to one side, but that it is evenly divided. Some people view sex as sin and some people view sex as power. This is a current issue that we are dealing with in the US with the topic of abortion and birth control.

This section right here is notable because which people Locke is pointing to to prove his point about governments and who forms those governments: the native peoples of the Americas. It's fascinating that Locke thought the Native Americans important enough to use as an example in this political treatise. It reminds me of the Iroquois Confederacy and how the early US government structure was based upon the structure of the Confederacy.

His cotton example reminds me so much of project based learning. There's so many connections between the major disciplines in school. Why do we have students move from subject to subject every hour? It would be much more meaningful to have the disciplines integrated

This reminds me of project based learning in general and specifically with David Wiley's notion of "disposable assignments."

Page 1 "The Panathenaia has been called the "most political" of Athens' festivals and has been treated as distinctly democratic or populist. 2 This modern assessment echoes that of the Athenians themselves, who saw the Panathenaia as the event that occasioned the defeat of the tyrants and the birth of democracy." This festival reminds me of an extended version of the 4th of July. United States freeing itself from British rule is like the Athenians freeing themselves from a dictatorship.

Implying that Mr. Plymdale isn't very smart. This description also reminds me of the first sentence of the book when the readers are introduced to Dorothea. She is also called "clever", but as having "less common sense [than] her sister Celia had more common-sense" (3). I would be interested to go through the book and specifically look for how many other times the narrator gives the characters backhanded complements.

This use of open reminds me of the theme of "observable work," "working out loud," and "thinking out loud" that Jon Udell and others have spoken about. These are practices that perhaps, at least at first, benefit the original workers and thinkers, in that they open themselves to constructive feedback and thus improvement. Then, however, others benefit from access and use of both the product and the process that has been created and refined.

I love these historical examples of "remixing." Reminds me of older forms of scholarship which promoted commentary and exegesis before the production of "original" work.

This reminds me of how children don't really have a sense of time.

This reminds me of a child's constant desire to grow up quickly. With every second he is aware of his aging. He sees this as a exciting thing as he yearns to be older as every child or adolescent does.

And the style reflects place, which reminds me a Rickert's comments about the rhetorical efficacy of the caves themselves.

I'm a psychology major at Davidson and the fieldwork of anthropology reminds me a lot of a data collection technique used by psychologists called a case study. In a case study, a psychologist will extensively observe a particular person or group of people/organization. Psychologists also use similar data collection techniques such as interviews, questionnaires and inventories. I feel that the main difference between a case study and fieldwork is that psychologists rarely become an active member oft he community. Instead they tend to observe from a distance either making themselves known or not.

Although I have never been involved in any anthropological fieldwork, this statement reminds me of the way most people (myself included) feel when adjusting to Davidson during the beginning of freshman year. Davidson certainly has its own unique culture, so it is definitely very overwhelming to be thrown into it. As the YouTube video on the "Davidson Dictionary" demonstrates, you almost have to learn a new language when coming to Davidson. As someone who went to the same school from kindergarten through senior year of high school, adjusting to a new culture definitely caused me to feel a little helpless. Thinking back to this and the thoughts going through my head when adjusting to a culture that in the grand scheme of things was not too different from my own culture, it is difficult to imagine how alienated and helpless I would feel when having to rapidly immerse myself in an entirely new and different culture.

Reminds me of Foundations of Rhetoric: Why are you choosing blue instead of red? What feelings do you want the color to evoke in your audience? Interesting to be able to draw a parallel to what I did in a university class to the thought process that Homo sapiens used to paint caves.

The diversity of Rhetoric reminds me of a point in Michael Gagarin's "Did The Sophists Aim to Persuade?" which looks at these elements, but also sophism as performative. He points to Gorgias' defense of Helen being a bit of a "with one hand tied behind my back" boast, taking on handicaps to show off his language skills. From my perspective, the Encomium on Helen makes a lot more sense that way, and I'm interested in how a spiritual aim alters other texts.

e. and, of course, obviously, the performative has a connection with Orpheus and music.

The emphasis placed on these two elements of rhetoric reminds me of the Greek use of rhetoric in politics as a way to sway audiences and public opinion through public speaking, something that relied heavily on these specific elements.

Within the repetition of "They lion grow" I get a sense of empowerment. It reminds me of the lower-class going through many obstacles and through them, they achieve a greater sense of purpose.

I find very intriguing that as a brilliant as he was that he refused to get with the time. He did not feel comfortable being around younger people for that he reminds me of the Britishmen and scientists who back in the day were scared and doubtful to changes in medicine because they were afraid of the unknown.

This reminds me of types of stakeholders in educational program evaluations. Could be a useful reference here. Mertens and Wilson (2012) mention the following 5:

• Decision-makers
• Implementers
• Beneficiaries
• Non-beneficiaries
• Disadvantaged

Within ID, who's making the decisions and implementing strategies? Who are the intended and unintended beneficiaries? Most importantly, who's disadvantaged?

This section reminds me of a religious concept that no matter how far one may stray from god's path one would be welcome back with love and grace.This could also relate to how many people continue to love their spouse abundantly even though they may abuse or cheat on them.

This reminds me of a god or goddess in Greek or Roman mythology. The ways she is described as having a glorious presence, true spouse of her god and a darling to her god..she was representing something meaningful.

This reminds me of the "footprints in the sand poem" that some people may know. In that poem, a person dreamed they walked with the Lord on the beach and he saw two sets of footprints. During the dark times of his life in his dream, he saw only one set of footprints and he felt troubled by this. But the Lord told him that during those troubling times, the Lord carried him and will never leave him. This part is very similar since He told Perpetua to not be afraid and that he was always with her even when she couldn't see him.

i like how Socrates explains this passage. It reminds me of the saying "There is no great genius without a touch of madness", which i find to be true.

This reminds me of the bad apple discussion. This quote is basically talking about spreading negativity

When it says that, "the non-lover ought to be accepted rather than the lover because he is more rational, more agreeable"etc.. reminds me of the bad apple discussion in class about how people who actually have these traits aren't usually accepted by other people because they're hard to work with and don't seem to care about people around them.

I find this sentence interesting because in the way I perceive it I relate it to the notion of being pure and faithful. It reminds me of the belief that good things happen to good people, and that in this case, if a persons soul stays truthful, the soul will always be protected and looked out for.

This mindset reminds me of playing sports. You have to practice to get better, and when you aren't good at a certain thing, you keep training until you are where you want to be. It is encouraging to me that life is the same. If you keep working towards something you can eventually get there.

This reminds me of the idea of self-fulfilling prophecy which we talked about in my psychology class. Positive and negative thoughts aren't just thoughts, they can influence how we actually "perform" and react in certain situations.

Diffusion--as I understand it--is tracking how a particular phenomenon moves through a social network. This reminds me of a TEDTalk on how to start a movement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXMnDG3QzxE

The example of door design reminds me a frustrated experience at Duderstadt Center. There are 2 doors with different designs. The design of horizontal pole was confused. I did not know it was deigned for pushing or pulling. Another disadvantage of the design is it is difficult to figure out which side is farer from axial. If we choose the wrong side, it is almost impossible to open the door. There are no clear instructions or good designs on its affordance, so we usually can see someone tries several times to open the door.

It is still there today! Stephen Hawking holds the office that Newton did and teaches there now. To me, it always reminds me of Hogwarts. Even their dining hall looks like the one at Hogwarts: And, students have to wear robes to classes. So, I guess if you don't end up getting your letter from Hogwarts, you can always go here for college or grad school as a consolation. (This is from Oxford-- another Hogwarts alternative that also requires academic/wizard robes.)

I'm interested in the Benefits of Tedium Latour alludes to here. He comes back to his tech choice at the end, defending the legitimacy of his, I guess, "science aesthetics," but this is about how the inherent inconvenience of the medium is valuable. It reminds me of a friend who was recently lecturing me about how automated workout logging apps aren't worthwhile because it's the process of logging that's more important than the data.

For Latour, who's all about the process and the "show your work," changes that make our lives easier never just make our lives easier. For Quintillian's detailed outline of the education of the rhetor, the long impact of these changes can have a major role in how you create a "vir bonus."

I found it intriguing that Parliament included a proposition that they needed to consent to those who become major officers and counselors; this proposition decreases the power of the King. This reminds me of how the Senate is needed to confirm nominations to the Cabinet and Supreme Court, decreasing the power of the President.

A discussion with a theology friend who works on early Biblical exegesis reminds me that Liu is forgetting a long-standing genre of humanist academic work, the commentary. Rachel would know better than I do how important the commentary as a genre was for the medievals, but also well before them for the early Church -- the text or data was there in its entirety "explicit, shareable, and open to critical examination" while the gloss lined the boundaries of the page. I'm curious if digital tools like Hypothesis, for instance, might allow us to come back to commentary as a legitimate form of academic work in the humanities.

This reminds me, as it rightfully should, of Lakoff and Johnson's Metaphors We Live By. But they take it beyond the figurative-speech-as-heuristic by stating that metaphors are the fundamental structures through which we conceptualize the world. So, in a metaphor like "Time is money," the word "is" serves as a placeholder (I think they use the term "shorthand") for a full range of experiences.

This is probably more important later on, though...

page 5 Crowning the Lares of the Crossroads with spring and summer flowers reminds me of how many people place flowers on the tombstone of departed loved ones on Memorial Day.

I think it is interesting that he wouldn't let the "beardless youths" join in the games and he would not let the younger people attend night entertainment without an adult relative...this reminds me when now you have to be accompanied by an adult when you're a certain age to go into places. I wonder why he did this..maybe it was just for their protection.

It reminds me of the #6 Self-Branded Self. It is more about quality rather than quantity.

This reminds me of Maslow's Hierarchy.... You have to have basic needs met before one can concern themselves with things like fulfillment and marital satisfaction.

This article reminds me of one conversation with my friend. She told me that everyday she woke up, she wanted to turn on the light without walking off her bed, but the position of the switch was too far from her bed. Most people at this situation would start to think about how to extend the switch and make it close to the bed. Perhaps an extended cable controlling the switch would be good enough to solve this problem. However, I kept asking her, “why do you want to turn on the light without leaving your bed?” She said because it would be easier for her to wake up if the light was turned on. Then I asked her again why she wants to wake up and finally I got her need: she wanted to get out of bed in the morning. Thus her problem changed from the far way switch to how to get up early. This whole process was me trying to find her really need. After reading this article, I keep remind myself that the users might not discover what they really need unless you keep ask them questions.

Reminds me of Vint Cerf's idea of the accidental archive, and how a total archive on the Internet is within grasp.

The idea of translating ideas and values into a real product is always so inspiring. It is also the core idea of design and any kind of arts. I really like one of paragraphs in this article, the writer said, “Designer using existing codes and conventions to make new products more familiar often unconsciously reproduce aspects of the ideology encoded in their borrowed motifs.” He also mentioned that “The user experience sometime familiar rather than new, so they are conditioned to accept things as they are.” It reminds me one of the commercial from SoftBank in Japan (link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yY12m7tjghI&feature=youtu.be). The designers used some familiar technologies for elders and embed new technologies on it. For example, the old phone can be combined with television and become video call. VHS can be combined with QR code and load the latest on-line videos. The designs help elders who are not familiar with new technology can enjoy new techs by their familiar ways. It also brings the core value of linking families together to the design.

Musicians will make music wherever they want or are able to. This relates Rice's Ethnomusicology in regards to music and culture because of the challenges we face as human beings to create sound as a way of expression. Music makers can use non utilitarian spaces to make sound art in. As humans we identify with sound as a tool to relate to expression. Everyone feels music differently and that is why we are drawn to it.

Yes Ludic design reminds me of gamification and I wondered what is the difference between this two concepts.

This reminds me quite a lot of gamification. For example, the design of buy-ten-get-one-free punch cards from coffee places and ice cream shops reframe customer goals based on how they're designed.

Starbucks uses gold stars, sending their users push notifications through a mobile application to complete the streak. Biggby Coffee, on the other hand, uses a Biggby Card that's swiped at checkout. The Biggby Card provides no way of knowing how close you are to a free drink.

Because Starbucks tracks user progress, and users tend to be more goal-oriented, Starbucks' strategy would be more lucrative.

Cleisthenes was trying to combine different tribes together and merging the whole population into more tribes than just the existing four. It reminds me a lot of the "salad bowl" migration.

this reminds me of "How to Read Literature like a Professor"

What powerful imagery. "Holding his featherweight frame in my arms." Wow. It reminds me of the pictures my mom showed me of the prisoners in Auschwitz, how you could see their bones. How there was nothing to them anymore. They were just skeletons. It must of been a very emotional moment when he saw his father again.

Translation: It's not going away and Americans are selfish, will you be like the rest of them and let these kids die on your watch?

Reminds me of the "Arms of the Angel" dog commercials. I can't watch them without crying

Reminds me of the models built from multiple polls elsewhere on fivethirtyeight.com. In the aggregate of all the ways the data was sliced, there's a general consensus around the idea that refs are between 1 and 2 times more likely to give red cards to dark-skinned players.

"...decolonizing is cool, except when I really think about it really hard..."

I love how the informality of this prose, this blog, belies the powerful press on a learning community's thinking.

lol thsi reminds me of the thom yorke is BAD FOR CHRISTIANS or whatever meme.. socrates was the corrupting rockstar of his day

This is reminds me of the factors that we discussed that forced many people to get on the crooked ladder. Lack of education, racism or nativism, and either being in jail or having those close to you in jail are all factors.

The author is making a comparison between Remus and Gatsby, comparing the "lavish furnishings" and "numerous parties" both men had in common. This reminds me of another writer's description of Gatsby as a gangster: Ruth's inventory of goods, sartorial excess, and refined consumption. Remus flaunted his wealth with his huge mansion and in numerous lavish objects with which he filled his home, while Gatsby does the same thing to outwardly display his wealth and success to both Daisy and the rest of the world. Their sartorial excess is characterized by the immense amount of expensive goods both men possess in order to justify and showcase their wealth. Additionally, these goods could be considered refine consumption because each man wanted the best in their homes: expensive paintings, solid gold piano, exotic plants, marble pool, imported shirts... These all have a refined characteristic in order to display each man's successes.

This reminds me of when Tom Buchanon says that Gatsby is a nobody. It is interesting to consider how a person's worth in this novel seem to come from how they compare to others.

presents data collected from research that used participatory design methods to discuss and address workplace safety and risk discourse in a way that Latino construction workers could more fully understand.

This article description reminds me of the New London Group article that made a focus on trying to education a generation of people with wide range of ethnic backgrounds.

This reminds me of Paul Allison's LRNG playlist in which youth have to choose keywords associated with their own inquiry questions.

This idea reminds me of the "internet of things" which is basically that every item in a house will one day be able to connect to the internet.

This reminds me of the idea of being "colorblind" to race brought up in the Williams race article. Maybe not acknowledge disability does more harm than good.

This reminds me of the idea in rhetoric that we make up how the world is. I do not remember who said this but it is an interesting quote: "the world can always be recreated linguistically"

This is a good point to make. This reminds me of how there are a lot of writers, photojournalist, and videograhpers that have the ability to edit and view their content before the general public can see it. Being the public, we view what these people put out and take it at face value. While for all we know the writers, photojournalists and videographers can edit these pieces of work taking away its truthfulness. There was a report of this doing during the afghan war with a photojournalist who edited a photo for TIME Magazine. The journalist said that the photo didn't convey the right message about the war. He edited the photo so much from the original that it conveyed a different message.

Interesting when the author points out how blue is good for contrasts because of how our eyes work. It reminds me of the design lore article trying to find out if there is a basis for "good"design principles in science. Also, it makes me wonder if that is why Facebook makes use of so much blue.

This is a really good connection that this student made. It's especially important that this student is making connections when reading because it means that they are fully understanding the context and what's going on throughout the story.

Zane, this is wonderfully rich. It reminds me of the scene near the end of The Two Towers, where Theoden declares that they will indeed open the doors and join the Battle of Helm's Deep, despite knowing that they are going to their certain deaths. I cried the first time I saw it. Of course I had read it before, but something about seeing it dramatized brought it home to me. Why will people accept these challenges? Why will they fight for a losing cause? It inspired me more deeply than I can say. I appreciated a similar sentiment toward the end of Dr Strange, during the conversation with Dormmamu. D says "You can't win," and Dr Strange replies, "No. But I can lose. Again. And again. And again. Forever."

We must cultivate our gardens.

This excerpt reminds me of emoticons and emojis. On different monitors the emoticons and emojis literally convey different expressions to the viewers and readers. On Apple products the emoticon that is expressing what can be conveyed as happiness on android and other brands of products that same emoticon is expressed as what would be sought out as an angry expression. This is important to remember when considering using emoticons and other icons because their intentional use may be misconstrued conveying a very different message.

This vignette reminds me of Liz's conversation with a kindergartener using an ipad to learn how to write-- he had learned that he could swipe fast and get to the game. The "oooh shiny" effect with ed technology is especially dangerous as it can give the illusion of learning

Reminds me I really mean to read "The Rebel Sell".

Whatever he is using is allowing him to control it via his brain. Reminds me of the past two texts we read by Saunders because of their futuristic and sci-fi feel.

This reminds me of http://www.npr.org/sections/ed/2016/10/30/499200614/how-one-university-used-big-data-to-boost-graduation-rates and how the interviews paired with big data helped to improve graduation rates.

In a way, this kind of reminds me of the tale of Adam and Eve, and the tree of Knowledge. It bore fruit - literally; fruit of knowledge. But this fruit proved, in a sense, poisonous to humankind, when Eve was sure it would only allow her and Adam to become gods themselves.

Script font reminds me of Pinterest worthy thank you notes or cute headers for personal blogs or online boutiques. I wouldn't use this font specifically on GCCA's website because it doesn't set the right tone for the type of information we are dealing with. GCCA has very important state juridical matter and also legal terms, business information, etc that are all serious. Like we talked about during our presentation in class, although they deal with children, it's still a very serious organization and everything must have a professional look and feel to it and script doesn't do it here.

I believe this is very important to consider when thinking about how we wish to display our content. In this passage Klienman discusses how our fonts and typefaces are similar to the clothes we wish to wear and I believe that this is true.

This reminds me of something I've learned/overheard many times from my wife: don't use Comic Sans. Anytime someone uses Comic Sans, the author will lose credibility. Unless writing an actual comic book, the font is useless. In my humble opinion.

I believe that when working in the professional world, especially when that work uses design in anyway, the technical writer needs to understand how the content they are creating looks. If that content looks unprofessional, that content will lose credibility. So by having a firm grasp on fonts and typefaces we are working towards implementing better design, more effective content and a brighter future.

All these different specific types of fonts can be dictated to help intrigue the reader of a webpage. As a technical writer you have the ability to manipulate different fonts helping the reader engage in multiple ways. This is reminds me of the last article I read on universal design. When it comes to fonts there is a specific most used font that being serif, which can can considerably be font's universal design.

This reminds me so much of the Hunger games in the idea that people watching this real life dangerous life ending event could influence lives in such a great way for no other reason than there amusement. A distopian procedure that year by year our society gets dangerously close to.

This reminds me of the AlterNet reading that we did a few weeks ago. Both of the writers are trying to make people a bit more aware of the effect of media on our society, culture, and heritage. Media has grown leaps and bounds for the past so many decades and is so common nowadays that it's had a profound effect on all of us.

This imagery reminds me of Wall-E.

This reminds me of the Kuleshov effect in film making wherein two unrelated images are edited together in order to create a single idea. the placements of information and other media in a single space creates a similar effect. The audience unconsciously associates two pieces of information when they are delivered in tandem. While this is a great way to organize information within a single piece of content like an infographic it can also be used disingenuously to associate two pieces of information in a way that favors a bias,

This reminds me of the article we read for our last annotations that discussed how the concrete definitions and parameters within the Academic world differ from the business world. The expectations change, which means there are new ethical conundrums to address.

Kimball says that design principles are "lore"which sounds like he means it is made up and loose rather than absolute. In this work he tries to apply scientific reasoning for design principles, which reminds me of the Enlightenment era propensity to use science to explain what may not fall under its domain.

This somewhat reminds me of the Dragga article about ethics because by choosing one image or point to be the most important or take up more space than it somewhat deemphasizes everything else. In most cases that is okay like in headings but if like in the article said if you are working with a warranty and making the details of it harder to read then that is not ethical.

This reminds me, what's your timeframe here? That should be clear from the very beginning of the paper.

This reminds me of Sara Schindler's article about discrimination and segregation through the physical design of the built environment. In contrast to what Schindler address in her article, middle income housing seeks to eliminate segregation by physically integrating communities through middle income housing. As the article says, however, this is easier said than done. In order to enfranchise (if you will), members of the community must feel that they have a right to where they live and connect to their community.

This reminds me of a program here in New Haven. The children are more willing to learn from these programs as opposed to learning at school. They want to be at these programs to better themselves.

The discussion over which teacher utilized technology better is interesting but also reminds me the ways in which schools tend to evaluate teachers' use of technology in the classroom. All too often, teachers who are being evaluated will incorporate technology into a lesson simply because they know their principal will be able to check off that box. After reading this, I am reminded that in order for technology to actually be beneficial in the classroom, it needs to be used with purpose and direction.

The mind drawing within in couple with the phantasmic state Dante the pilgrim is in reminds me of Aldous Huxley's "The Doors of Perception" in which he talks extensively about "the mind at large" in which the use of psychedelic drugs allow for us to actualize the perception of everything happening in the universe and recall anything that has ever happened to us. Because of the nature of Dante's epic and all of its imagined aspects from the very design of the after-life to instances when he draws within; I must ask myself, "Was Dante using psychedelic drugs?"

This is a quiet, timid, very Gregor-y way to illustrate the horrific incident of waking up as a "monstrous bug." This uncharacteristic reaction almost reminds me of disassociation, a symptom of mental illness where the afflicted person feels "out-of-touch" of reality, either being desensitized to outer stimuli or feeling as if their watching their life in third person (like a movie). Their movements grow mechanical; some might find themselves in areas that they do not even have recollection of going there. Disassociated people also react slowly, or don't react at all, because they cannot register that there is a reaction in the first place.

Lots of satire evident, wonderful use of descriptive adjectives.

Reminds me of when the Bible was translated and made available to the general public instead of just church leaders

Reminds me of The Red Death. All of the rooms where described as vibrant, lively colors, except for the red room which was dark and lacked as much color as the others. Color=Life and happiness

This reminds me of Elionnor Ostrom and Antonio Lafuente examples of language as a common.

Do we have a sustainability model for the commons?

This reminds me of the original Adam and Eve story, where their arrogance led them to go against God's wishes and ate the devil's fruit. Dante warns the figures to not let their hearts waver from what is right and just, unless they want to be see their "evil path" just like what Eve had done by doing the wrong thing.

This part of the article reminds me of an article by James Paul Gee called "Good Video Games and Good Learning." Gee says that learning should be more like video games: more fun, more engaging and more stimulating. In relation to technology, learning can be even taken further to be in/through games not just like games. I played an old game called Oregon Trail in my Eng Ed Seminar class, and I had fun, and surprisingly was reminded a lot of what I learned in high school history class. Such usage of technology/game can be stimulating and intriguing.

ominous -- this would be equivalent of replicants? This almost reminds me more of i,robot

I've heard similar sentiments expressed regularly by online educators, despite the cognitive dissonance this might create when we first think about the idea of online interactions being humanizing.

Reminds me of an article I read in the Chronicle recently

Collaboration. Reminds me of

What if everyone in the world were in your lab – a ‘hive mind’ of sorts, but composed of countless creative intellects rather than mindless worker ants, and one in which resources, reagents and effort could be shared, along with ideas, in a manner not dictated by institutional and geographical constraints?

from https://doi.org/10.1242/dmm.003285

This reminds me of a fairly new (published 2009) piece entitled Aurora Awakes by John Mackey. In it, Mackey unapologetically uses the guitar riff from U2's "Where the Streets Have No Name" as a marimba ostinato (where a musical phrase is continuously repeated). The driving feel with a lighter tambre (instrument sound and color) helps push the theme (daylight arising from a cold and dark night) forward.

Furthermore, Mackey also takes Holst's final chord from the Chaconne of his First Suite in Eb and (after adding crotales, which had only been around for about 30 years at the time that First Suite was released and they weren't all too popular as a result) uses that as his final chord for Aurora Awakes.

Sunil Singh asks us to stop promoting mathematics based on its current applications in business and science. Math is an art that should be enjoyed for its own sake.

This reminded me of A Mathematician's Lament by Paul Lockhart. This is a 25-page essay which was later worked into a 140-page book. (And Sunil Singh has read at least one of them. He credits Lockhart in one of the replies.)

It also reminds me of this article on the history of Gaussian elimination and the birth of matrix algebra. Newton's algebra text included instructions for solving systems of equations -- but it didn't have much practical use until later. (Silly word problems are as old as mathematics.)

This is a great way to talk about experience. I feel like so much of the worship is connected to experience, so it makes sense for artists and architects to focus on creating this "immersive experience". This also reminds me a lot of the fairly secularized and more modern art of creating installation art pieces that usually aim to engage multiple senses to create an immersive experience.

This reminds me of memorizing my favorite poems from a kid's movie when I was younger.

This reminds me of a saying that my band instructor would use: "Humans are a product of their environment." I understand that Lefebvre realizes that humans experience different things in life but I have a hard time believing that if I come from a poor environment that I will not be a productive citizen.

I think this subtitle is very interesting. It makes me think of how in both English and Perspectives we discussed how the built environment establishes gender in ways that are not necessarily blatant. The fact that the writer refers to the "spatial dimension" as a place that needs social justice reminds me of sexism in the built environment. Humans inherently are discriminatory, at least they have been in history. The fact that we have built buildings and environments that are also discriminatory should not be surprising, yet it kind of is. How could the construction of four walls and a door lack in providing social justice? Well it does, without proper awareness of the builder.

This reminds me of the analogies Dr Yemi Stembridge makes about teaching and yoga. I think there is also something to say about how veteran yogis might make flow look easy and that newcomers need to know the habits of mind and practice in order to develop.

This reminds me of my talk I had in World Religions class. Religions around the world obviously have to adapt to current generation advancements and ideas or it wouldn't be able to continue. Relating this to the text, I think there is no need to destroy youth savvy practices. We need to adapt to our current generations and future generations and not stop them.

The idea of short story collections definitely reminds me of comic books. Every comic issue is a short story that connects to the next in line of that series depending on whether a villain is defeated or not. I can see why short story collections can maintain popularity in this way.

This reminds me of one article saying, "publishing industry hasn't exactly made accessing books on screen easy."

This kind of reminds me of the idea of Gaia, the watery first state/mother of Earth.

reminds me of like a skeleton army. like a dead person parade.

This reminds me of Matthew 19:30, and of the New Testament in general, with cripples ending up in a better position (which is sometimes seen allegorically).

Our brains are so cool in this way! Reminds me also of how our brains block out our noses:

"The main reason is stereo parallax. Each eye sees the nose in a different position because it is so close. You can notice this if you look down at your nose and alternate closing the right or left eye. The visual region that is blocked by the nose with one eye is "seen" by the other eye. During the first stage of visual processing, the brain forms a unified image from both eyes and takes the region from the eye that is not blocked by the nose. You can also notice this effect if you put a hand in front of one eye close to your face. You can still your hand but it looks semi-transparent."

Reminds me of Beatrice de Regnier's May I Bring a Friend

This isolation kind of reminds me of the Grace Galloway had when she was losing her home and going through crisis. It says a lot about the exiled and how long sympathy lasts in an environment that is completely based on who is loyal and who is not. Again, I believe that family is destroyed through the war but it also messed up friendships because people were either too afraid or they were not really able to do much about the situation.

This reminds me of Pocahontas in a way. She was a Native American who saved a white Englishman, John Smith, who was being held captive. Later in life she was held captive, converted to Christianity, took the name "Rebecca" and married a white man. Even her story has been romanticized, which is what Alexie is showing here. Even from the Disney movie, we know that Pocahontas was "one with nature" and was beautiful.

This line really strikes me because, all his books are about death and it seems that no matter if you are living or dead, your always dead or surrounded by death either yourself or the people around you. It also reminds me of the walking dead, they are surrounded by the dead and are dying one by one.

Obviously on some level a warning about our helplessness in the face of death, but also reminds me of Marie talking about her childhood feeling free in the mountains. She was "free" and Phlebas was "handsome and tall," but the trajectory seems to point down for everyone in more ways than physical as they approach death (whether by old age or not).

This is an interesting juxtaposition to me. Water swells at the surface, not in the deep..To have a swell without a surface reference point is essentially impossible. It even reminds me of, "If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, did it even make a sound?"

Swell Defintion

the word mixing reminds me of the previous class session we had when we were talking about mixing the pure with the "tainted"/unaccepted

reminds me of graveyard poets in England, reflecting the idea that in the end, everyone dies just the same. He can be anyone and this is a realization often reached when close to death

The circle of life, revolves around death and life but also the in-between and what we don't know about the after life is a big mystery, which takes us back to the unseen, the living dead, or just the dead. It reminds me of the lilacs that bloom from dead land, which could possibly signify that even though we lose people, we also gain new life.

I think cinemagraphs are really cool because they're a lot more authentic-looking than gifs - often there's no obvious looping and the image feels very real. It reminds me of the moving images in newspapers and such in Harry Potter - the cinemagraph most accurately represents what those would look like.

This reminds me of the way websites used to be designed - very tacky with a bunch of GIFs and stamps everywhere and overall horrible design.
