Beyond Digital

Washington Square. NYU Campus. Silver Building. Class 402. That was my destination. For 30 minutes I observed:the locker rooms, the elevators, the people who were waiting outside the door, the students.

As I saw the teacher unlocking the door, I have to say, I got excited. What does this teacher  who has a "Woody-Allen-meets-Stuart-Little" look has to say. How will the class begin?  Questions didn't stop there. Who are my fellow classmates? Are they old? young? Hip? As I walked in to the classroom I came across a very interesting scene: black floors, gray walls. NYU has a very dark class environment? It seems so. I felt self conscious. Was I out of shape school wise?

The classroom suddenly grew on me. 15 of us, all looking around, playing around with our cells ( I must note, I was the only one w/o an Iphone).  And as I started getting used to the atmosphere, a QUIZ began. What? On the first day of class? Yes. and what a Quiz, what a dynamic.

Ira Mayer was his name. The one who began his class with a quiz. Who had a quite dramatic entrance. and as soon as I started answering those questions I knew I was in the right place.

After a couple of hours of class, I left the room in awe! I had a great time, and can't wait to get to my class assignments.

He left us with a question, and which I'll leave to you too:
What if there's something beyond digital, that will make digital look analogic?
