OFMD Decembverse 2022 Information

Hello everyone, and welcome to OFMD Decembverse! It’s time to try our hand at some poetry. Please read the entire thread before participating! Our hashtag: #ofmd12verse (alternate: #ofmddecembverse).

First, link to the ao3 collection for this event: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/ofmd12verse22/profile

Official Twitter for this event:

Information:

OFMD Decembverse is a month-long prompt-based challenge to write some poetry for your fandom. Poetry is seen as something intimidating and “not for people like us” to most people, but that couldn’t be farther from the truth. Poetry is for everyone.

Each day of December will have two prompts associated with it: A type of poetry (with instructions provided for how to write it) and a lesser-known quote from the show Our Flag Means Death that you can use as inspiration.

You do not have to follow either prompt if you do not want to. You can choose to focus only on the poetry type or the quote, or say screw it and write the poetry you want, how you want. If it’s a poem related to OFMD (or that uses these prompts), it qualifies for this challenge.

This challenge is taking place on Ao3, Twitter, and Tumblr.

Note: Some of these poetry styles (such as Shi) were developed to only work well in certain languages. I will be posting ways to adapt these to English for those who are interested. I don’t think poetry should have to be Euro-centric just because this is a predominantly English-speaking fandom.

Prompt List:

Day 1: Slam: “Wait until you hear about my life as an accountant.” Day 2: Ballad: “I loves me a thief.” Day 3: Sonnet (Iambic Pentameter): “The love of a pet makes a man weak.” Day 4: Pastoral: “We’re gonna have fun today, and that’s an order.” Day 5: Terza Rima: “If I can help this crew grow as people, then I’ve succeeded in being a pirate captain.” Day 6: Ottava Rima: “You should have stayed still, that’s kinda on you.” Day 7: Enclosed rhyme: “The rest was just gravity.” Day 8: Soliloquy: “So this whole time you were a woman?” Day 9: Blank Verse: “I’ve got more riches than you can shake a fucking stick at!” Day 10: Free Verse: “I never said that they floated.” Day 11: Ode: “You all look the same, you know.” Day 12: Lyric: “Is this all there is?” Day 13: Ballade (not the same as Ballad): “A widow’s life isn’t nearly as bad as it’s made out to be.” Day 14: Villanelle: “Mutiny is a-brewin’.” Day 15: Narrative Poetry: “I can’t believe you made me do this.” Day 16: Dissonance: “Since we’re on the subject of bad vibes…” Day 17: Assonance: “We love an audience.” Day 18: Satirical: “I’m a dirty, filthy murderer!” Day 19: Haiku (or Tanka): “And you cried all the time, and liked to pick flowers.” Day 20: Elegy: “Murder is a natural cause.” Day 21: Imagery: “We could’ve made magic.” Day 22: Alliteration: “Knives are knives, meat’s meat.” Day 23: Free Verse: “I heard the most insane rumor.” Day 24: Couplet: “You don’t get food if you’ve been invaded.” Day 25: Shi Poetry (see guide for English interpretation of rules): “I’m the Black Cat of Death.” Day 26: Fable: “Read it and weep, my friend! Adventure awaits!” Day 27: Ghazal: “God’s not a fan.” Day 28: Limerick: “The vengeancer and the vengeancee.” Day 29: Tercet: “You’ll sign a confession to that extent, hmm?” Day 30: Monorhyme: “Avast ye!” Day 31: Epic: “My Wondrous Journey: A Life at Sea.”

Rules: 1. Please tag properly and liberally for common/reasonable triggers. Mark explicit verse as explicit for those of us who browse social media at work.

2. No racism/homophobia/transphobia that isn’t both tagged AND used in the storytelling process (such as to express discomfort with these concepts or to show characters being victims of these concepts).

3. If your poetry is explicit, tag that shit please!

4. Don’t worry about getting it perfectly right, poetry is about expressing yourself and feeling free as fuck while doing it.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What if I've never written poetry before/am not very good? Poetry is one of the oldest art forms in the world. People used poetry to pass down wisdom, stories, and share their culture before they could write. It is truly for everyone, including you. It has a stereotype for being gatekept and that only certain people can appreciate it, but I promise that that is a lie. If you can type words, you can do this.

Do I have to participate in every day/prompt? No, and it's likely that it will be really difficult to keep up with them all. Do what speaks to you and makes you happy.

What if I don't want to make the kind of poetry in that day's prompt? Then screw it, pick another kind that speaks to you. This challenge is supposed to help you learn to express yourself in different ways, but if you can't express yourself properly through a haiku or a sonnet, do something else that speaks to you. All poetry is good poetry.

Do I have to follow the quote prompt for each day? No. Some people don't know where to begin, so I've provided quotes from the show that generally aren't used/referenced much in fandom. But if you have a better idea you are obligated to use that one instead, because again, expressing yourself through verse is the most important part.

Do my poems have to rhyme? No, not all poetry rhymes, and some kinds explicitly don't.

Can my poetry be explicit/sexy? Hell yeah. Just tag that shit, please.

Can I participate by writing for other fandoms? Yes! While this challenge was created with OFMD in mind, all fandoms could use a nice injection of verse in them. All I ask is that you use at least one of the prompts for that day (be it the poetry type or quote) so it relates to this challenge in some way. I know that many people also write for WWDITS and those fandoms are more than welcome here. I purposely chose quotes that aren't a direct reference to characters in the show so that you could branch out.

Do I have to write a poem about the exact context of the quote? No, absolutely not. It can be about anything. The quote is just there to get your juices flowing.

Where can I post my work? Ao3: This collection is the place to post it. Twitter: Use the tag #ofmd12verse OR #ofmdDecembverse (the first one is neater in my opinion). The main account will retweet works under those tags. Tumblr: Use the tag #ofmd12verse OR #ofmdDecembverse (the first one is neater in my opinion). The main account will reblog works under those tags.

Meet Shinichi Saruhara~! He's just a small town boy... with a super wacky family life~! His parents look identical, his sister is caught up in a love triangle, and his delivery man is super hot~! All this and more on Meet the Donbros! Premiering Sunday, December 24th on ABC~!

Been far too long since we had a Shinichi focus episode, so I'm looking forward to this~!

Spoilers, I guess...

-Is it like -chwan, the honorific Gaon uses to refer to humans/smol animals?

-Damn Saruhara, do you not work out?

-Oh, why'd you give Tsuyoshi the Hitler mustache hjlklhg

-Coupled with the glasses and combover, he gives me serious Bruno Ganz in Downfall vibes.

-TAROU WHAT WAS THAT

-Don Don Brothers!

-Okay so for this episode I'm watching the TV Anon subs, and they call it "Cringe Family" and... yeah <3

-"Yo, Kaito... are all of my beloved companions family? ...without me?"

-"Yes."

-Suzuki-san, you are rockin' that dress.

-Kameda Tsutomu.

-Of course, of course, this guy's our Hitotsu-ki!

-...did he scam an entire family out of nowhere?

-Soooo, Shinichi... what's your deal with this guy?

-Ohhhhhh, you're pulling a gigachad brain move.

-Good look scamming a dude with no money.

-I see the Professor's still beloved in his neighborhood :)

-Fake spiritualist... just like Kanedama from that Ep. 13 of Kakuranger. ...wonder if that's where we got his

-We had the boss lie for us~!

-Oh Jesus Christ, he followed us

-Oh here we go~!

-Outswindle the swindler.

-Good on Tsubasa for just like

-Instantly agreeing to help out.

-Damn, Sonoi.

-"What the dog doing with the shark?"

-Sonoza seems very proud of Murasame carving out his own path, how sweet :)

-"If the dog and the shark become friends... they must trigger some sort of game changing event."

-Aaaah, I see that smile too, Sononi~!

-Jirooooou~!

-Free Vegetables~!

-Daaaaaamn, Haruka, okay!

-Love how she picked both guys with girlfriends.

-"Look man, we're in too deep now, you gotta help us."

-While I do respect Haruka Saruhara establishing her right to date whoever however, I absolutely do not respect the way you worded that lmao

-"Hahaha, wow Tsubasa-san, we sure are the best rivals of all time, eh buddy~? Goku and Vegeta! Yusuke and Hiei! Deku and Bakugou! Naruto and Sasuke! Luffy and... I haven't really seen One Piece in a while, would you prefer to be Zoro, Ace, Law, Katakuri, or do you wanna pick for yourself?"

-"I might as well be Buggy, this is already humiliating enough."

-Everybody is haunted!

-Ah yep, classic cold reading.

-Stroganoff.

-Haruka I swear, if you actually had a cat named Stroganoff-

-Gave the poor thing a shoe hat.

-Scarecrow?

-That is a masterclass t pose, Beppu-san.

-...Shinichi fucking would t-pose without prompt.

-Tarou in da house!

-"Oh... good for you. I don't care."

-"Okaaaay, thank you for the meat, get the fuck out now, please~!"

-"I want meat."

-See, Tarou knows they're lying, but they don't know how they're lying.

-Tarou is experiencing accidental neurodivergent-on-neurodivergent violence.

-Surrender your prized possession to be free of darkness!

ALBUM REVIEW: MARVIN'S MARVELOUS MECHANICAL MUSEUM

BY: Tally Hall

GOOD DAY: Listen to Good Day on a good day to have a good day.

(2:44-2:53):

[Let us sing, let us sing] x 20. I think they just want you to let them sing. A good message to send to the youth.

Greener: After listening to this, I feel as if I have been transported back to 2001. Why is Rob so sad? He does not need to be sad, maybe he just has to listen to Good Day to not be sad anymore.

Welcome to Tally Hall: "Can I get a 'T'???" Epic start to this song. Someone take me to the mini-mall so I can see Tally Hall working at the carnival.

(2:28): Pigeon?????

Now Joe is rapping in a british accent...

"We think we're playing in a band..." Does this mean that they are trapped inside Marvin's Museum???? Are they forced into performing like some sort of circus animal for money??? Guys, I think this is a cry for help.

Taken for a Ride: *Starts off with steam engine sounds* Sorry, I don't have much to say about this one. I think Andrew is singing this one??? idk

The Bidding: (0:00-0:23)- *I thought they were initiating me into some sort of ritual at first*

Lesson of the story: Joe is a hypocrite and will manipulate you into spending money on a bidding for a date.

Be Born: This song is so cute. Good job Rob. If I ever become a father, I will play this for my child.

Banana Man:

Okay, I think this one is actually about a ritual. Okay, actual moral of the story kids: don't do drugs. I do not want banana. No more banana. Please...

Just Apathy: Rob back at it again with sad sob songs. *skips*

Spring and a Storm: I love this song so much oh my gosh i luv it ahh so much.

Two Wuv: Not going to lie, I hate this song. It's kinda creepy. Zubin, you get one (1) chance to make one (1) song for this entire album and you waste it on this. I am deducting 1,000 points for this.

Haiku: Thank you Rob for giving me wholesome music, after whatever the mess that "Two Wuv" was.

(2:02-2:07)- Joe, thank you for your addition of wonderful background vocals.

(2:08-2:12)- Joe, why are you quietly yelling in my right ear????

The Whole World and You: Andrew Horowitz is the bestest writer and song composer to ever live. Although, a closer look at the lyrics and its meaning proves that this song is not as wholesome as it sounds. I think he literally means that he would have no one, as no one is better than having you around. Or maybe not idk don't ask me I didn't write this song, I'm not Andrew. 10/10

13: The calm before the storm.

Ruler of Everything: Back in my day, this wasn't a meme song. Please help me I am so old... (i'm just kidding, i am glad that tally hall is getting more popular now though, they deserve it)

*Juno*

(1:48-2:04)

Hidden in the Sand: Very nice and pleasant to the ear. Sung in true quintet fashion. Excellent ending to an album.

I give this album a score of:

Is music.

In fact, it is:

Good Music.

50/10 (not because i have a bias towards tally hall or anything, this is a totally fair scoring system i swear)

#review #tally hall #album review #music #feel free to send in albums #or individual songs for me to review #is music

Musings

You can find the ao3 version of this fanfic here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/33606406

A/N: Hey guys! I know I don't have an excuse for being gone so long, but I hope you can understand. I'm working on the second chapter of the Champion Reading I, which should be coming out soon. But for now, here's this! Sorry if the writing is too formal for canon or if OOCness is happening, this was a creative writing assignment for ELA, but I (of course) turned it into a fanfic. The guy Harry talks about in this diary is supposed to be Ron, but if you want it to be someone else, it totally can be. Also, the poems in the middle are haikus that I also wrote for class. I hope you guys like them, because I worked really hard on them :)

Disclaimer: The poems are all originally created by me, and belong to me. Please don't take credit for them, or use them elsewhere. Or if you do, please at least credit me as the original author.

Trigger Warning: minor internalized homophobia at the end

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Journal of Harry J. Potter

Please return to owner if lost.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

September 3, 1993,

I admire many things very deeply, though it might not seem so at first glance. My love can be as deep as my hatred. I find joy in soft, sweet melodies, as long as the musician is competent, as it isn’t so in today’s day and age. Colourful, three-dimensional works with much depth and layer are most pleasing to my eye, and are what I prefer to draw myself.

When I endeavour myself to this craft, I leave my finished works to dry along my bedside nightstand, along with the rest of my treasured memorabilia. The rest of the boys in my dorm know not to disturb me during the time that I draw. I know almost nothing about astrology, I can admit, but the stars and the planets fascinate me. Especially their movements and almost otherworldly beauty. I very much like to draw and paint about this subject.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

November 3, 1994,

Anguish in your flight

Ink blotting stains your letters

At last, blissful peace

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

January 5, 1995

Yesterday has been too strange. I don’t find myself thinking often about him, but sometimes it seems as if he goes out of his way to distract me. I was standing near a window while the other boys at the gathering were laughing amongst themselves. I don’t have much of anything to say to people at social events, so I usually just remain silent.

My mind could only traverse back to our past conversations, to the sound of his laughter, and the almost odd sight of his pale complexion against my dark one. My heart flutters a bit, and I do not understand why. Once I get too deep in thought, he gently seizes my wrist and brings me into the circle with the others, and forces me to speak with them.

I cannot comprehend why he can’t just leave me be, but perhaps it has something to do with the strange feelings festering within the corners of our hearts, if he indeed does share them.

I suppose only time can tell with this one.

Warmth deep in your mocha eyes

July 6, 1995,

Some people say I am a bit too contemplative for their liking, and I suppose it is true. I find too many things saddening in this life. I cannot help it. One day I was taking a stroll along the park, when I found a child laughing with his mother. I felt sick with myself for doing so, but I felt a rage rise within me at the innocent sight.

What was it, that this child had done in his life, that did not grant me the same luxury? Fate, I suppose, chance. ‘Tis foolish. What is wrong with me, I ask, that makes me feel such a terrible emotion over something so bright and lovely in this world?

Perhaps it is me that is wrong and twisted.

August 5, 1995,

The summer sun is much too hot for my tastes. It is quite bothersome. Especially when I am trying to go for my daily stroll. I don’t exercise much, but I try to go on walks every day, to keep up my good figure. The weather was terribly humid, and all throughout the journey, I could feel myself sweating. It was very distasteful, and a feeling that I entirely loathe. I took a thorough shower once I arrived home.

To make matters worse, Aunt Petunia scolded me for leaving my dirty clothes on the laundry floor. I wished, not for the first and certainly not the last time, that it was school once more, so I could at last be away from home.

Yes, I truly hate summertime, with every fibre of my being.

Dear old grandmama

Your limp, gray hair is too tired

This burden of life

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

August 30, 1995,

Today was surprisingly pleasant, especially for summertime. I had just finished freshening myself up for the day, when I noticed a lemon-scented note waiting for me on my dresser, with a single red rose on top of it. I was very pleased with my discovery. Roses are my favourite of all flowers, and the sweet smell was most welcome!

I opened the note, to find that it had been written by him. There was that strange fluttering in my heart again, that I didn’t like to ruminate on too deeply. After reading the beautiful note, in elegant print, I held it close to my heart and looked up at the ceiling in thought. I remained that way ‘till breakfast-time, as I pondered.

Perhaps summertime wasn’t all too horrid.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

December 31, 1995,

My dear love, my life!

Beautiful angel of mine

Must you hurt me so?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

October 7, 1996,

The boys at my school are so juvenile! You would think they were still toddlers, with their lack of maturity. All they do is speak of girls, crack stupid jokes, pull pranks, and offend others. I am especially grateful now that I am above such things. I think it would be most loathsome to be of such a temperament. I almost pity my cousin, but he is too much of a nuisance to fully gain my sympathy.

Then again, I suppose I can attribute my sensibility to my queer ways. Were I a normal man, I do not doubt that I would not be nearly self-aware enough to come to such logical conclusions. But I suppose they are not completely worthless.

The other day, a boy asked me to come with him to the Fairfield Festival. I thought of him, and declined. Accepting would seem like a betrayal to his affections, as complicated as they may be.

Hopefully one day, I find a woman good enough to rouse my spirits as he does.

Fiery are the flames

That douse the candle of life

O Lord, have mercy

Weaknesses:

A witches’ greatest weakness is herself. Magic ties into one’s emotions. However the caster feels determines how strong the spell/hex is. Therefore, emotions must be kept at bay or else accidental magic will occur.

likes: Writing poetry (especially haiku poem), exploring abandoned buildings, the colors white and green, learning new languages (she’s currently learning Mandarin), the sound of ocean waves, nail art, taking care of her succulent plants, giving and receiving massages, collecting seashells, baking cupcakes and cookies, hugging (especially taller people since she can bury her face just below their chin or in their chest), tarot card readings, lavender tea, thunder and lightning

dislikes: Mondays (even on the island those are the worst), being too early for a meeting or appointment, yoga or meditation (she just can’t stay still or focus long enough to enjoy it), puzzles, unnecessary competitiveness, carbonated drinks, having to stay inside, heights, fairytales (so unrealistic!), cold water, waking up late, tight-fitting clothes, surreal and abstract art, loud music (especially the sensation of heavy bass), dancing (because she’s horrible at it)

habits: Has a sing-song speech pattern when excited about something, her nose twitches whenever she’s frustrated or annoyed, bobbing her head while listening to music, sticking out her tongue whenever she’s concentrating, frequently gazes off into space, covering her mouth while chewing or laughing, crossing her legs when sitting, fiddling with jewelry if she’s wearing any

Background:

When Wonyoung was born, her family was doing well. Her mother was a succesful writer and her father owned his own restaurant. Somehow even with lives as busy as that, they managed to find enough time for their family. Wonyoung and her older brother were never abandoned or left alone. It wasn’t that difficult to arrange since their mother mostly worked from home, but at the same time she somehow managed to juggle writing a new book and taking care of two children. She was an admirable woman. Wonyoung’s father made sure to take enough time off so that his wife could rest and he could bond with the two children he had produced. He was as hard-working as he was loyal. If anyone would have been forced to imagine the perfect family, Wonyoung’s might have been the one to engrave itself into their minds.

Until the cold winter night of December 15th in 2014, a young Wonyoung was seated on the backseat of the car next to her brother. She had fallen asleep after visiting their grandparents.

Waking up felt like having a bucket of cold water dunked over her head. She was no longer in the car. She also wasn’t home. She was not in her own bedroom either. A hospital room had been there to greet her when she woke up. The panic that rose up from the pit of her stomach is a feeling that still haunts her to this day. A nurse had been kind enough to offer her a small cardboard container for the content of her stomach. Her older brother was soon allowed into her room. Apart from some cuts, bruises and a broken arm on her brother’s end, the two of them seemed to be alright. Wonyoung was given a brief explanation of what had happened; due to the cold weather the roads had become icy and dangerous yet their parents had decided to drive home. A second of her father not paying attention caused the car to meet a nearby tree, falling over and crushed the front half of the car. Her brother and herself were lucky to be spared from most damage, but her parents…

Wonyoung doesn’t recall much of the weeks that followed that moment. She does not remember the funeral. She doesn’t recall packing her belongings and moving in with her uncle - her mother’s younger brother - who lived in Tokyo, Japan. She couldn’t remember the last time she had attended school, the last time she had seen her friends, the last time she had smiled. She only left the house to visit her parents’ graves. Though slowly but surely, a sense of normality returned to her life. Wonyoung returned to her education and just focused on the things that were familiar to her. While she began to regain herself, it appeared her older brother just lost himself more and more. He wouldn’t often not come home for days and no matter how much their uncle scolded him for it, nothing seemed to help. The reply was always the same: “You’re not my father!” followed by the loud slamming of the front door echoing throughout the entire house.

The last time Wonyoung saw her older brother was two days after his eighteenth birthday, she had been sixteen at the time. It was the middle of the night and she woke up to use the bathroom. Only to find her brother snooping around the kitchen. She didn’t know what he was looking for, but when he spotted his younger sister in the doorway the look on his face could only leave her to make assumptions. He looked like he had been caught red-handed. His belongings were in bags on the kitchen table. Wonyoung knew her brother was leaving, running away, going wherever he wanted to. He was abandoning her. With a final hug, she returned to her room and just cried throughout the entire night.

With her brother’s disappearance, people quickly gathered around her and her uncle for support. Not wanting either of them to suffer more than they already had, police tried desperately to track down her brother but were incapable of finding anything for months.

For all that had happened to her, she managed to succeed in life to her best abilities. Applying for universities when the time came. Wonyoung’s urge to flee the place where her entire life had fallen apart still lingered. Her uncle was aware of this. It was why she had been allowed to apply for universities in other countries. She did not wish to return to the England and Japan had also become cursed in her point of view. Fortunately, a university in South Korea accepted her as a student with a scholarship. In Philosophy - to her own surprise and delight. To Wonyoung it was an excellent way to leave everything behind, she would make ends meet one way or another. It was now up to her to take care of herself.

Any wanted connections?: n/a

Syllabus: Creating Documentary Performance

Course Title: Performance Composition: Creating Documentary Performance PERF-UT 201 (4 points)

Course Description The term documentary theatre is often used interchangeably with verbatim theatre. Theatre scholar Carol Martin would advise us to beware and keep tabs on Documentary Theatre, a slippery little devil which claims to present the truth. Yet, in truth, the world of Documentary Theatre (and Art) seems to be expanding. New works of live Documentary Art challenge the documentary form by loosening the grip of journalistic objectivity and responsibility. Documentary performance now takes on a variety of forms which we will examine in this course.

This course will begin with ways of observing a range of performances (live, filmed, quotidian, and archival). We will then integrate this heightened awareness into an hybridized archival call-and-response. We will have daily in-class creation workshops designed to respond to research and performance materials. Through this process students will learn to integrate research questions and aesthetic performance elements. Participants will engage in documentary writing techniques, performance techniques such as vocal duplication and movement vocabularies, creation of composition scores, and docu-fantasia (a methodology pioneered by Guy Maddin in his film “My Winnipeg” combining personal history, civic tragedy, and mystical hypothesizing), among others. The result of these searches will be cumulative. At the end of this course, students will have created several short-form documentaries.

Participants in this course will come from various performance backgrounds: some (like me) will be based in theatre practice, others will be more comfortable writing, composing music or movement, directing, acting, or filmmaking. This course is designed for much of the creation of our projects to take place in the classroom itself with students sharing their skills with one another as they learn new skills together.

Course Objectives

to become familiar with the field of documentary performance

to develop and deepen investigative research skills

to learn to create performances from disparate elements (learn processes of meaning-making)

to generate “speculative” material from “factual” remains

to move archival materials from the page to the stage (or lens/screen as the case may be)

Requirements

You need a notebook or loose paper. We will do writing exercises that will be edited and presented during class. It will not be possible to participate fully in movement/writing work on a laptop.

You will need scissors and a glue stick.

Please see the class schedule below. Please come to class having completed the listed requirements (read, watched, and prepared performance elements) and come prepared to share your findings and contribute to discussions, workshops, and rehearsals.

There will be four assignments due during the course: a) construction paper photo journalism Using lessons on image composition from Molly Bang’s “Picture This,” recreate one image from one of the documentaries or images we viewed during weeks 1-4 (or an image of your choice). Write a brief but vivid description of the scene you hope to capture. Upload both the original and your version of the image as well as the description. This image is due on February 21, 2021. b) 360 degree video (maximum 5-minutes long) Create a three-minute long 360 degree video of your own living space (use Ackerman’s video for inspiration). Research the history of your living space (What is the history of that land? When was the building constructed? Who owned it? Who lived there?) and then write a two-minute monologue from the point of view of someone you image to be a previous tenant. This is the basis of the performance. You may choose to incorporate other performance elements created in the course thus far (movement vocabularies, musical elements, etc.). The video should be submitted via email on week 5, a 500 word summary of building history including sources is due on week 6, and the final performance is due on March 21, 2021. c) Documentary Étude (maximum 10-minutes long) Seek out your own musical archive (this might be something personal, something you amassed yourself or something you discover out in the world) and using strategies developed in class (ex. haikus, nightstand writings, movement vocabularies) and other techniques learned from docs we’ve seen (vocal re-enactments, karaoke, performance re-creation, etc.) create a live documentary étude to the song or recording of your choice. This étude should include research into the song and, based on that research, some theories we have discussed in class that help analyze your findings. The way you structure this presentation is entirely up to you. Due April 26-May 3, 2021 (exact date to be decided upon by in consultation between students and instructor). d) performance review The final assignment for this class is a 1000-1200 word review of another classmate’s documentary performance. The point of this assignment is to constructively critique a colleague’s work while integrating the texts and theories we have discussed during the course. This is to be submitted to the instructor via email on or before the final day of class (May 10, 2020).

Attendance in this class is critical. Much work takes place in-class and this cannot necessarily be made-up through subsequent assignments. More than three unexcused absences will result in a failing grade. Absences must be excused in advance, please make your request via email. Likewise three unexcused latenesses will count as one absence. Assignments are due on the date specified unless a change is discussed in advance with the instructor.

Day 1:Happy New Year! Any hopes for the new year? (TC or non TC related?)

i hope to stay in contact with him, and i hope to see him irl again (corona please)

Day 2: Do you have any nicknames/codenames that you call your TC? Do they have any they call you?

my nickname for him is “the most beautiful handsome gorgeous man in the entire world” but just in my head

Day 3: Describe the moment you knew they were more than just another teacher.

when he gave me some ✨attention✨ and just kinda noticed something about me that most people don’t

Day 5: What’s the age gap? Did you ever think you would fall for someone that much older? Are you comfortable with the age gap?

24-25 years and like i appreciate men of all ages (okay that sounded weird i swear i’m not a catholic priest) so i’m not surprised but i didn’t really think about it you know?? am i making sense. but i’m okay but i wish it was smaller just so there would be a bigger chance

Day 6: Describe the first time you saw/met them. How did you meet? What was it like? Were you automatically attracted or did it take some time?

i honestly don’t remember. i didn’t really pay much attention to him at first, i mean not saying i don’t appreciate some good looks on a man but all of my crushes are personality first looks second.

Day 7: Do you plan on keeping contact with your TC after graduation? How do you plan on doing it? If you’re graduated, have you kept in contact? How have you managed that?

honestly i don’t knowwwwwwwww i graduated and i’ve spoken to him once i’m too scared to message him because i feel like i’m bothering him and i don’t want to look like a dumb schoolgirl with a desperate crush even though that is 100% what i am

Day 8: Is there something that tends to remind you of them? Like a sport, food, animal, etc…?

he loves cats. and some songs. and also everything

Day 9: Do you have a memory you are particularly fond of with your TC? Any cute stories?

i really wanna say but it’s too specific. but any praise he’s given me i just store in my brain forever and replay

Day 10: Have you ever touched your TC? Like a hug or a brush of the hand?

i just realised i haven’t lolzzzzzzzz this doesn’t bother me at all ha h a

Day 11: How often do you talk to them? Do you talk to them outside of school?

nope because i am dumb and scared and have no social skills

Day 12: Have you ever had any previous TC’s? What were they like?

nopeee my love is for this stupid teacher only

Day 13: If it were to happen, how do you imagine the perfect kiss going down with your TC? If by chance you have kissed your TC, how did it happen?

WHO HAS KISSED THEIR TC AND IS STILL ON TUMBLR ANSWERING QUESTIONS if it wasn’t obvious no it has not happened to me but i would be in his house on his bed and he’ll just kiss me it dosen’t have to be long but just the kind that says i love you without any words aaaaaaa i’m so alone

Day 14: Do you truly believe there is a chance that they’re interested in you? Has anyone else pointed out that maybe you’re special to you’re TC?

okay so i don’t know. like obviously if you ask me to bet a million dollars on wether he likes me i’ll say he doesn’t. but when it’s 3am and i’m in my bed i think what if. WHAT IF.

Day 15: Have you ever gotten them a gift? If so, what was it?

yes and just food unfortunately. i wish i gave more but it would be weird and i’m trying not to be even more obvious about my crush

Day 17: If you had to pick one feature about them, physical or personality, what would be your favorite?

okay so i saw this tiktok about like people always like the cocky anime characters with the skills to back it up and i just thought of him instantly (not that he’s an anime character). but his dumb cocky and confident attitude is just everything i want and more

Day 18: Do you know of anything they do outside of work? What do they enjoy doing in their free time?

he plays the guitar and sings <3

Day 19: What goes on for you when you see them? How does your body react?

i will be surprised and look away. i can’t keep eye contact with him. and sometimes i just don’t know what to do and i’ll just ignore him. IM SO DUMB WHY AM I LIKE THIS

Day 20: What have you done, or what would you do, to spend more time with them? Join a club/sport they’re in charge of? Sign up for an extra class they teach?

i would do anything that won’t give my crush away. but like i’m so lazy. i avoid doing anything. people are already suspicious and i really don’t want my crush to be known (unless it’s on tumblr <3)

Day 21: How often do you dream about them? What do the dreams usually consist of?

my dreams are so weird. for me i’ll go though phases of no dreams and just ten a day (i nap a lot). i will say about a third of my dreams involve him but not in a romantic way, unless you call me desperately trying to talk to him romantic.

Day 22: What’s a little detail you’ve noticed about them that you aren’t even sure they’re aware of? Do the run their hand through their hair often? Do they subconsciously bite their lip?

i don’t know if this counts but i often stare at him from afar (yes i’m a stalker what about it) and he walks with his chest puffed and head high. like really really really confidently. i miss trying to catch glimpses of him at school </3

Day 23: If they weren’t a teacher, what do you think they should be?

my husband <3 i think he can hold two jobs well, he’s a great multitasker

Day 24: Do you think other people in your school may have feelings towards them too? Why?

yes, because he is the most perfect being (human or otherwise) like, ever

Day 25: What are their classes like? Do they talk a lot? Is it mostly independent work? Are there a lot of notes?

i miss the discussions

Day 26: How would you describe their personality?

dumb. stupid. annoying.

Day 27: What’s the weirdest thing they’ve ever worn?

omg I WANT TO SAY THIS BUT I CANT UGH THE HORROR

Day 28: What’s something you don’t quite fancy about them? A quirk you find odd? A physical trait that you aren’t a fan of?

sometimes he can be surprisingly by the book. i am kinda a rebel (yes it’s hard being so cool) so that rubs me the wrong way but sometimes i break rules or make another teacher mad and he’ll just laugh and smile and ugh i love him

Day 29: How long have you had a crush on them?

jesus christ i just realised it’s already my fourth year pining over this man. someone help

Day 30: Write a poem (short or long) about your TC.

y’all really overestimating my literary skills. but here’s a haiku

please i’m so sad

all because of this dumb man

i want to kiss him

Day 31: Do you have anyone in your life who knows about your TC? Anyone you can talk to?

i told a friend that i thought he’s cute but she totally does not get the extent of it and aaaa there’s another girl that’s totally onto me but i’m not really her friend and she’s the type who can’t keep her mouth shut so
