Notes from class

Whiteboard snapshots. I try to capture whatever gets written on the board at the end of the day. Alas, my phone is not much of a camera; and, alas, these are removed from the context of the conversations that generated them and therefore rather decontextualized.

My own notes: these are often rather cursory, and we often wind up talking about other things when we all get into the same room; I prefer to let you pursue your own literary, theoretical, and practical interests when possible. These notes are just what I've prepped ahead of time.
