Um here, have some quotes

– Lily Tomlin

“Knowledge is understanding that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.”
– Pakistani Proverb

“I see now that the circumstances of one’s birth are irrelevant; it is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are.”

Ticha Sethapakdi

Hi everyone! My name is Ticha and I collect bugs sometimes. (note: not sure if the picture is a ‘recognizable’ version of me as my hair is much shorter now…)

Here are some of my selected ‘new media’ (???) pieces.

And for your entertainment, my art tumblr in which I post traditional / digital drawings, photography, and sculpture.

Readings – Play


For Thursday read these two texts:

What’s the Point If We Can’t Have Fun? by David Graeber

Play is by Miguel Sicart (from play Matters)

And write a short response as a comment below here. Some starting points:

  • What are the similarities between the two authors’ notion of play?
  • Can you make examples of the “appropriative” nature of play described by Sicart?
  • Both authors oppose an instrumental way of thinking about play, can you point at examples of this instrumentation? Can work be playful? Can games be work-like?
