Assignment 4 - April 15th - Clothing Loaf

Assignment 4 - Clothing Loaf: Excluding shoes, put on all your clothes. All Your Clothes! At Once. Layer after layer, be aware of each piece of clothing and the value it has to you. Now choose a simple task, like making a snack, cleaning your room / house, or engaging in some moderate exercise. After your task, sit down and try to rest, watch a movie, or take a nap. Keep all those clothes on!

Observe your experience and share it on the class blog in three or more pictures or a video. Write three or more sentences describing how you felt doing this exercise. Did some articles of clothing lose meaning to you? Did you feel encumbered by the excess wearing of your clothing? What was it like trying to do your simple task? What was it like trying to rest? Do you need all those clothes? With each layer did you feel more constrained or secure? Comforted or stifled? How was your mobility affected?

Also: Reply to at least two of your peers' pile and pillar posts from last week's assignment in the class blog comments. What stood out to you? Did the titles they chose for their works have any special meaning to you? Could you relate in any way?

This assignment is Due Wednesday, April 22nd by 6:59pm EST. Please post to the class blog by this date and time to account for your class attendance.

Title your blog post Assignment 4 - Your Full Name - Clothing Loaf.
