I’m feeling love for this class that I just found at ConU. I will definitely be sitting in on as many as possible.

    how did you find this class??

    why can’t you register? because it’s some crazy art school 400 level…?

    wow.. this will either be awesome or feel annoying like taking some academic class on “meta-narratives of the punk movement” while being oneself a squeegee brat rockin a squat in lasalle.

    I am kind of wishing I could take the course meself…

    I found it because they linked to ISF (and I was checking the stats of the site).

    I’m not going to try and register. Maybe next term if it’s offered. I’ll just sit in on some of the stuff.

    Based on the links, i’m guessing that it will be on the “awesome” side. He’s linking to blog entries, for chr’sakes.

    hey mike it’s patrick.

    so you want to take brad’s course?? hehe. i think you would like it. he’s good at getting into theory, but can’t say very good at practicality, from my experience… but don’t tell him i said that if you sit in one of his classes! i don’t want to sabotage my own grade. heh.

    hey pat!

    I don’t want to take his course so much, just to sit in on it a few times. I got the chance yesterday.

    it was fun, but I would have liked to hear more from him as opposed to hearing presentations by his students. unfortunately its not really a lecturing kinda course
