New Tech & Post Modernism - Day 3

Out of anything I have done on this course, I think this part of the New Tech module is the part that sucks.  Even with the Romantics, there is a framework to follow i.e. the sublime, the pure spirit of children, the altered state etc. Because of the changable nature of Postmodernism, you cannot clinch some of it, because just as soon as you think you KNOW what you are talking about, the bloody pattern shifts.

( Bowdlerised Definition )

So, how can you write a concise academic essay on it? It would have made better sense to have a Modernist module, THEN through the rule book out and study Postmodernist.

*sigh*

Back to the drawing board.

1,843 - there are better links on the FB forum thanks to our lecturer, but at this moment, I am done.  Make that SERIOUSLY done.

PoMoNo Man's Land

It is 10:30 and I am in bed, with dread gnawing at the back of my mind. I'm really not getting to grips with Postmodernism. Or, rather I can understand it in art, architecture and just about every other medium, bar literature and communication, especially re media and the internet. Thankfully, I qualify for the extenuating circumstances form, but I have to resign myself to getting a low mark. AND I have to do my ILS/IAS work.

I am both exasperated and bloody exhausted with a time limit running on it. Nothing is falling into place as yet and my very real fear is that it won't ever get a grasp of it before the deadline. Plus, I still have to get to grips with the PoMo jargon etc.

I got 'The Fear.'
