The aesthetics of violence in A Clockwork Orange, film by Stanley Kubrick
+Love the topic
+Great source material
+Interest of portrayal of controversial concepts aesthetically
-Would have to narrow it down a couple magnitudes of scale
The absurdity of portraying absurdity in The Stranger by Albert Camus
+A fan of this particular line of philosophy, albeit not a complete subscriber
+Makes for some interesting writing
-Choosing a particular position in which to articulate thoughts about absurdism from could prove quite hard
The post-modern sexiness of Soft Porn by Puma Blue
+Enjoyable source material and topic for me to analyze
+Something I want to analyze and look more in depth, but would not do so otherwise unless compelled by a greater motive
+Good music (back to square one)
-Perhaps too little source material due to its rather short lyrics. Additionally, the artist’s low profile and short history as such.
-Risk of over-intellectualizing something as transient as music and stopping to enjoy it as much
Qs: Which one of these is the intersection of something that will serve the assignment’s purpose, and amuse me in the process?
