Experimental blog
This is a community blog for participants of English 26.02, "Weird Science: Experiments of Fact and Fiction" at Duke Unviersity. The blog will be activated in January 2007.
Students will use the site to:
(1) post short responses to readings from class
(2) share news media, visual images or other internet ephemera which relate to the major themes of the course
(3) respond to one another's work
(4) collectively construct an archive of the class' work throughout the semester and make the archive accessible to a public-web audience
This course explores the notion of the "experiment" in its various scientific, political, and religious instantiations, mostly in U.S. contexts during the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. Throughout the semester, our investigations of what and how it means to "experiment," will include several "experimental" methods and activities in the class, including this blog.
