Project 451

Howdy to all you ScreaminLetters!

If you recall from our class today, we came up with the following topics for the Project 451 essay:
  •  knowledge v. ignorance
  • social networking and "being connected"
  • the sedated society (ways to avoid suffering, drug dependency)
  • transportation (MIO)
  • constructs of the feeling of belonging
  • "forbidden fruit"
  • uniformity and standardization
 You are more than welcome to combine and modify these topics according to your personal vision for the paper. You are to conduct no more than four interviews total with a length of no more than one hour each. The essay is a maximum of three pages. Partial transcriptions are to be included in your essay as evidence to support your claims.

Lastly, the first homework assignment related to Project 451 is due Wednesday, October 10th. Please have the following prepared by Wednesday's class:
  • Your first interview (without a transciption)
  • Difficulties and succcesses you came across during the interview process
  • Your essay topic
