Assignment #1

I use to make art back in my freshman year of high school during Art class.  Throughout Art class I made paintings, sculptures, and simple hand drawings.  When it comes to art however, my favorite type has to be architecture.  The last time I was at a museum was back in my 6th grade year when I went for a school field trip.  Other than that, I have never been to an art studio or a gallery.  I have been to several plays but not for a very long time.  The ones I recall are those from my time in elementary school.  I have never been to a Opera or an art film.  I dance well enough for my own sake,  but no where near as good as one would have to be to preform.  I learn the most when there is a lot of interaction between the instructor and myself.  Also, it helps a great deal if I truly am interested in the material.  I am taking ARTE to fulfill my only art credit needed in my major.  I believe that music has moved me the most more than any other form of art because it is easy to relate to what people are verbally saying.  Success inspires me, the more I do the better the outcome will be.  I believe art is anything that can be interpreted by others.  I do consider movies, music, video games, comics, and television art.  I also believe it is you yourself that considers what good art is by determining the effect it has on yourself.  When debating movies or music, I usually rate them according to the effect it has had on my personally.  The best movie of last year was the Inception.  I believe an art film is an independently made filmed aimed for specific groups of people, rather the the population as a whole.  Right now I have my Ipod plugged into the radio in my car with all my songs from my Itunes on it.
