Notes from class: Thursday November 13

For the class on Thursday, November 13, our Conceptual Practices class conducted another oral critique of the proposed posters in 8.5x11 format.  Most of the work has changed dramatically from the first discussions and critique.

I found that this critique did not give good feedback for my work or any of the other works.  The critique was dominated by a few outspoken students.  Many of the best artists in the room never expressed their opinion of anything because they did not want to compete with the louder people.  I greatly prefer the written critique.

When we do a written critique, I get to see feedback from all of my peers.  If a change is recommended once, I might consider it.  If a change is recommended by everyone, or a majority of the viewers, then I believe a change is in order.  Because we did not get everyone's opinion on every work during the verbal critique, it is difficult to take the good suggestions and forget the bad ones.
