Messages on the Good & Meaningful Life from Popular Culture - Part 1
Please watch the following three videos. If you see something objectionable to your family's sense of what you should be seeing - please stop watching and talk to me about it.
After you watch all three videos please select one to analyze. You should address the following questions:
1. What is the song basically saying about how to live a good life? Paraphrase the main idea.
2. What lyrics particularly speak to that perspective? Use quotes as evidence.
3. How do the video images support, re-orient, or challenge the dominant theme of the lyrics? Analyze.
4. What else do you notice that's interesting? Look for internal contradictions, aspects of the message that resonate with other messages from the pop culture, points that connect to your own perspective, etc. Analyze squared.
Please type up your response, read it over, revise it, and post it by Monday, Oct. 20 at 8:50am. Please devote 50 minutes to 2 hours of concentrated attention to this effort.
