Blog Origins

Teachers are notoriously conservative. Proof: simply look at their attire. In an attempt to ride the progress myth, the story that the latest is the greatest, this blog will use this technology to, in Northrop Frye's famous phrase, educate the imagination.

While the imagination is associated with creative works like poetry, stories, sculpture, painting, one more association I would like to add is the theoretical creative mind. There is a power to create and a power to understand that creation.

Disclaimer: Use anything here that you find of value. Whatever is not, simply discard.

Dedication: My muse for this blog is a former student and present friend. Thanks Andy for the inspiration.
