Upon examining the syllabus recently created (by my fellow classmates and me), I decided to read the critical work "I Cheated YouTube for 5 Months and Finally got Caught" and the creative works: "The Chase," "Top 10 Poetic Tweets," and "Snap Art." All of these works are incredibly different from one another, as the critical work is rather clear and simple to follow, as it regards someone who was able to buy views (and therefore popularity) on YouTube, without confrontation by YouTube authorities for five months. However, the creative works are much more abstract and open to countless interpretations. "The Chase," for example, is rather interactive because it enables viewers to make personalized selections in order to cater to each viewer's specific experience. Similarly, the poetry and artwork employed in "Top 10 Poetic Tweets" and "Snap Art" respectively, is not as clear and concise as the critical work. The words in the poems as well as the colors in the artwork can bring out certain emotions, memories, ideas, or symbolism that can vastly differ from person to person or audience to audience. Overall, I enjoyed these readings because they demonstrate that there is great value in both critical and creative works. | Upon examining the syllabus recently created (by my fellow classmates and me), I decided to read the critical work "I Cheated YouTube for 5 Months and Finally got Caught" and the creative works: "The Chase," "Top 10 Poetic Tweets," and "Snap Art."

Upon examining the syllabus recently created (by my fellow classmates and me), I decided to read the critical work "I Cheated YouTube for 5 Months and Finally got Caught" and the creative works: "The Chase," "Top 10 Poetic Tweets," and "Snap Art." All of these works are incredibly different from one another, as the critical work is rather clear and simple to follow, as it regards someone who was able to buy views (and therefore popularity) on YouTube, without confrontation by YouTube authorities for five months. However, the creative works are much more abstract and open to countless interpretations. "The Chase," for example, is rather interactive because it enables viewers to make personalized selections in order to cater to each viewer's specific experience. Similarly, the poetry and artwork employed in "Top 10 Poetic Tweets" and "Snap Art" respectively, is not as clear and concise as the critical work. The words in the poems as well as the colors in the artwork can bring out certain emotions, memories, ideas, or symbolism that can vastly differ from person to person or audience to audience. Overall, I enjoyed these readings because they demonstrate that there is great value in both critical and creative works.
