We often wonder about an artist's immense creativity, seemingly harnessed with ease. Each of us has tremendous resources of creativity, often under-explored. In this course, students learn to unlock their own potential. No previous artistic experience is required. Activities include readings & discussions; weekly responses; two reflective papers; a presentation on a "found" resource; & one creative project in a medium of the student's choice.

Scholarly and critical study of music circulated through mass media. Specific topic for the semester (e.g. world popular music, bluegrass, country music, hip-hop, Elvis Presley) announced in advance. No previous knowledge of music required.

Centrally, close study of the Beatles' music, along with biographies, relation to the history of American rock 'n' roll, the breathtaking early years, the devastating new sonic landscapes of their later studio work, and the context of the 1960s--that turbulent decade that shaped, and was shaped by, these four English lads.

Listening sets us up to be involved fully in the life around us, and to be interactive in communities that create together. This course explores listening and sound-making in daily life from many angles including field research, reading, writing, discussion, and group performance workshops. We explore ideas about improvisation, uniting the aesthetic sphere with the broader sphere of social life and active engagement.
