In the United States we are permeated with mass-produced images.
These images find value in their aesthetic, cultural, and social worth.

Other than those offered in the text, post an example of one image that is mass produced.

Post the image on the discussion board and briefly analyze its aesthetic, cultural and social worth, to answer why the image is being mass produced. Include in your brief analysis, the distinctions that you see between the original and the copy?

Section 2

In the text, Walter Benjamin is quoted “Instead of being based on ritual, [art] begins to be based on another practice — politics.”

What does this mean? Describe the politics of reproducibility.

Section 3

Phenomenology is a science of experience of the ways we react bodily and emotionally as well as intellectually to the world around us.

Perception is the most important sensory register through which we can know our embodied experience

Perception, memory, and imagination are key concerns for phenomenological approaches to cultural analysis.

Analyze the Picasso image (Still Life with Mandolin) from these perspectives:

Perception: what do you perceive and how are you affected physically, emotionally, and intellectually?

Memory: what personal memories, associations, and/or reflections of personal experience come to mind in looking at the image?

Imagination: in what way do you think or perceive or feel differently than before you saw the image, what is the newness of experience in looking?
