“Summary of Wright’s Essay”

This is very well-written. You explained everything clearly and appropriately. I cannot provide any possible improvements to this post. You did a great job explaining it as if I had never heard of the idea or anything like that. Very good job and I would have rather read this then the article.

“Frida Kahlo”

Your description paragraph is very detailed and well-done. You described every part perfectly and allows someone to imagine the picture from it. The only thing I could think of for improvement, is saying the Frida is lying in the center of the picture. Otherwise, great description. Your interpretation of the painting is great. You said what you believe and what it relates to. You could have explained what the overall meaning of the painting is. Good job overall.

“Page #165, Discussion 1”

I really like how you made the first paragraph explains the background of your post. Great use of the sources to further the power of your post. Great work on the example of how machines can never overtake humans. This was very-well done and I am going to stop repeating myself.

“Page 199 #1”

Great description of the painting. I didn’t notice the blood until you described it. You could have explained a little more about Frida’s pose and how she is staring at the viewers. Your interpretation was very well done. The first paragraph was unclear to me if it was actually a fact or just your opinion. Your meaning of the painting is noticeable and agreeable. Great job with this one.

“Thinking Machines Take Two”

This was a very difficult post in my opinion. Your explanation is great. It is clear and anyone can read it, even if they have no background knowledge of the idea. Your introduction and description of Chalmers and “Cog” is very well written. Other than a few typos, there is nothing left to improve.

“Wounded Deer_Description Painting”

Your description is very discrete and thorough. I hadn’t noticed the lightning until you brought it up. You could have talked about how she was facing the audience as another description. You did not explain what it means to you. I know you said that you didn’t know, but you could try to interpret it. Each person interprets it in a different way and there is no harm in explaining your opinions of it.
