Event Response Post #1

Towards the beginning of the semester, I was walking through the Modlin center when I stumbled across the Annual Student Exhibition. There were a lot of beautiful things in there but one piece stood out to me the most. When I walked into the exhibit I realized that there was a video playing to my right. The first time I watched it, I watched it from the middle of the video to the end without sound. I noticed that the screen was split in the middle and it played clips from old videos on both sides. The second time I watched it, I watched it all the way through with the headphones that were attached to the tv. The headphones played the audio that went with the various different clips. Before the video started it said that it was following a boy and a girl comparing what young kids are taught about sex depending on their gender. I found it very interesting and watch this eight-minute video about four different times because I could not tell who was who. I wasn’t sure which side of the screen was supposed to be a boy and which was supposed to be a girl and I wonder if that was because I did not understand or if that was the point.
