The Parameters



1. This is a space for you to share information that you have discovered while studying monsters and gods.
2. It is best to include actual texts that you find.
3. Each found text should have a few personal sentences or more that discusses why this particular passage intrigued you.
4. Each blog entry should have at least one image accompanying it.
5. Commenting on each other's blog entries is highly recommended. Use the comment area and not a separate post to respond to each other.
6. Some helpful hints as to how this translates in physical work:
a. keep your reading eye and imagination open to visualizing images that you come upon in these historical, philosophical, fictional texts.
b. Allow these actions and images in your head to mingle with passages from other bloggers entries.
c. Have fun with your comments (personal and responses to other's personal) in the blog and talk about striking images, physicality you imagine. If could be a fully played out action or it could be "I pictured a someone siting on someone shoulders rubbing their thumbs together."
d. Avoid meandering. A one sentence post may be all your thoughts needs.
7. Above all, have fun with it. You will live with this material from now until this project is done. So find topics that intrigue you and stick to it!
