2. What would happen if you were to take away the stories from the work? Would it still make sense?
Response:
I really enjoyed this lecture, I thought that they had very interesting things to say about their work, and I really enjoyed the collaborative aspect behind their work. I found their statement in the end about how the concepts prevalent in their work; databases and loops came about because there was a need for them to be brought out in conversations. At the time they began their work they focused on those two ideas because no one else was addressing them.
3 words:
-database
-story
-loop
Before this lecture I did not realize how important a role stories played in their work. I feel that if you were to take that away, the work would lose an important element. It's almost like the one thing they really need is explanation. I also did not realize how personal their work was, like their "Dream Sequence" project and "Traffic #1". Going back to how important the story was, knowing their story was what really made the project stick with me. If I did not know and was forced to form my own story for it, it would have been a totally different experience.
