Neither here nor there

The concept of an ‘un-lecture’ doesn’t leave me wanting more. I pat RMIT on the back for taking an alternative stance on teaching. I say ‘good on you, sir,’ to my lecturer who doesn’t label the structure he builds, but leaves it for us to determine it’s place. Perhaps just by posting this, it has achieved it’s purpose by provoking a complexly weaving train of thought on the topic. Tally Ho.

Though, I do not leave the lecture theatre with a strong sense of self and motivation to explore the depths of the world. I often leave, bemused, wondering if I have enough coins for a killer python for the walk home. This time in the windowless room is interesting, don’t get me wrong, but I am more captivated by other students’ responses, than the words spoken from below.

Perhaps I am supposed to study people, not theories. Or maybe I just need to eat more lunch pre un-lecture.

More food for thought.
