There will be no lecture on that evening. Instead we will be going to the museum as a class. Because the museum isn’t open at night, we will be going during “Dean’s hours” on Wednesday.
We will start the tour at 11:15 AM, and we have booked for a 90 minute tour with museum guides.

So please arrive by 11AM.
You are welcome to stay afterwards. Please sign in with your instructors and give them your Hunter ID number.
From Hunter, you take the IRT to 59th (or walk down). Then take the M or R train to Steinway Street. (NOT the “N”) Use the 34 Avenue exit near the end of train. Walk south along Steinway Street; turn right on 35 Avenue. Proceed three blocks to Museum entrance just past 37 Street. Check www.movingimage.us for other options.
At the museum you will find exhibits and demonstrations relating to many aspects of media production. Your assignment is to go to the museum and, with your group, experience at least one of those demos, and report on your blog about that participation. In this blog you should make an effort to explain what you discovered about a specific aspect of media production, what you learned that you didn’t know before, in a way that might communicate to the non-initiated. How have the changes in moving image technology changed the way moving images are created, how they look, and how we experience them?
This blog is 250 words in length, and is due Wednesday, Nov. 29th by 11am.
