Moises Urena: Week 4 Analysis

1. What themes or concerns in the presented reading are your responding to?

The theme I'm responding to is talking about discomfort. The theme from "A Manifesto for       Discomfortable Writing" is about making things unfordable and what is uncomfortable.

2. What are the materials and processes you used to formulate your response? Why these? If several, which are you most concerned with? 

The process I used was thinking of something I wasn't comfortable with. When I sat down on my laptop I began to think about how I had to do homework on different websites that I had to pay for. Paying to do homework on different websites gives me an uncomfortable feeling. I wasn't sure how to express that but I think for anyone who reads what I posted will understand.

3. Why these materials and processes. What are their limitations? What do they allow? 

Using my laptop to post my response gave me the same feeling of when I had to put my card information in to do my homework. The limitations to typing it out is that here isn't any real texture. I can't write harder or softer. I can although change the font size and color of the text easily.

4. What choices did you make? (For example, the tone of a piece of writing, or the lighting decisions for photograph.) What led your decision-making about them? 

I decided to make certain text larger to emphasize on them. I wanted it to show that those words may be words but they symbolize a lot more. For example I made the 268 dollars the biggest font I could use.

5. What did you learn through this response? (You can address new knowledge or new questions you’ve gained regarding the class reading, the materials/processes you used, or both.) 

Through this response I learned that I am more uncomfortable with the idea of paying so much money for certain things than I thought. As I wrote my response I started to really see that Schools really cost so much and nothing is guaranteed after we leave.
