I really enjoyed today's lecture. I took Spoken Word last quarter with Kip and it was an awesome experience. This class taught me more about myself then I ever new. I signed up for this class not really knowing or understanding what spoken word was all about. I knew it was poetry but I did not realize how much of a performance was involved in this art expression. I took this class to become more confident with talking in front of people. I am a really shy person and I figured this way would force me out of my comfort zone.
I came out of this class as a more independent and confident person. This class made me look at other aspects of my life to gain inspiration from. I never thought I could make art in the way. This class has trained me to speak in front of people. I am not scared when I have art critiques anymore. However I still want to take this class again because I feel like I can expand more and reach new limits with this art form. I enjoyed Beau's performance. He has really perfected it. I was able to see Saul Williams perform last quarter as well and that made me realize how this art form can take many different directions to reach the viewer.
