I was born back in the day as an undergraduate class at a pretty good West Coast University called SDSU--much in the news these days for lawyers, drugs, guns, and money. I have a thing for cameras and movies and spend too much time in the dark watching things happen. I am a trifle sentimental and have been known to shed a tear or two at the movies. My main incarnation used to be found at
SINEMADNESS
--a webpage that features updates on my class assignments along with student art, photography and webdesign; another is here
SEDUCTIVE_HALLUCINATION.
Spring 2007 I went by the name of
OBSCENE MACHINE and masqueraded as a film and literature course focused on Ethnic American discourse... Last summer of 2007, I was a
London University class on Film and Cultural Studies.. in the UK and this Fall I underwent a metamorphosis into
Naked Surrealism.
In May 2008 and I evolved again, ending my days as a Comparative Literature 210
class! The course description is
here.
Early summer 2008, I changed again: this time into a Media and Cultural Studies
class at UC Riverside
(you can peek here!).
In Fall 2008, I returned to SDSU as an experimental English 220: Introduction to Literature section entitled Naked Mirrors and Fractured Souls! See it online
(here!)
Now, in Spring 2009, my latest transformation! A film and literature class, English 493, focused on, of all things,
SEX!

You know what, professor. I was thinking about Gilbert Hernandez's human diastrophism and I don't have a clue what he is doing? is he reappropriating latino representation?

I just wanted to show my creative process, and I hope you keep watching. I'm also thinking of taking your course next week and maybe inspire future creativity :)

here's that shakira video. they disabled the embedding. :(
if anyone hates on comparative literature. they're out of it. Shakira is a product of sweet hybridity. and she audited a history class at UCLA in 2007 under her middle and last name. hahahah. she told the professor she was visiting from Colombia!
