FILM 3660 1nd Edition Lecture 7Outline of Last Lecture - I. Recitation Notes for Cognitive Mapping II. Other Jameson Notes Outline of Current Lecture – I. Key Terms in The SituationistII. Four Cultural Strategies Current Lecture:Key terms in the Situationist discourse:Everyday Life: The leisure moments of un-administered lifeSituations: constructed events that merge the urban the aesthetic and the political. Alienation: Making 1000 lattes, not being connected with others around, our atmosphere or out creations. Reification: the human impersonation of inert and inanimate machines and imagesCommodity Fetishism: the erroneous endowment of commodities with a magical power of their own- getting turned on by a car. Spectacle: Social relation of humans to images.FOUR CULTURAL STRATEGIES:1. La Derive – going mindlessly from A to B without consciously home, driving and not paying attention just showing p like what?? 2. Psycho-geography – Take a different route or way home so that we can break up the numbness of our mind. Walking without direction or cause for mind expansion. When we are in a rush and start to notice the things around you that have always been but youpreviously missed. 3. Unitary Urbanism – The construction and reconstruction of modular pieces, this is an exciting strategy to avoid La DeriveThese notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.4. Le Detournement – You need to take something that already exists and find some alternative use for it so we can denote new meaning to it. It isn’t an accumulation of things it is a reinvented new way of making sense of things. Creativity has nothing to do with originality it has everything to do with renovating, redesigning.
