Welcome to Pages 2007-08. The Pages program pairs literacy and writing with the exploration of contemporary art, film, and the performing arts. This interdisciplinary multi-visit program will offer challenging contemporary arts experiences coupled with in-depth writing opportunities. Each of you will have multiple opportunities throughout the year to discuss, document and respond in writing thoughts, observations, and opinions of what you’ve gained from your experiences at the Wexner Center for the Arts. I hope you're ready because we have an exciting year ahead.
I want to invite you to use this blog as a forum for discussion with other students about the Pages experience this year. We will use this blog to have discussions with the writers, artists, and other students involved with Pages. This forum gives you an opportunity to meet other students and keep in touch while going through this experience together.
I ask that you use this forum responsibly. Please respect any opinions and comments posted on this blog. This is a positive forum to discuss ideas and be a part of a learning community outside of your school. Again, please use this tool responsibly and most of all have fun!
Again welcome and I look forward to meeting and working with each of you.

The idea of people that survive global warming by living on islands of garbage seems pretty fantastic to me! Is it possible that we would really choose to do this?
Hi anonymous...don't forget next time to leave your name so we can all get to know each other online and keep track of what schools are represented on our blog.
Anyway, to address your question about surviving global warming by living on islands of garbage. That is really interesting or better yet disturbing isn't it? I wonder if through technology, this future society is able to use the heaps of garbage to live off of or use as energy of some sort. The thought of that actually happening is a bit frightening in my opinion. It makes me want to be even more conscious to conserve and recycle every opportunity I get. I like that this story takes a look at how we're living now and tries to predict the future based on the decisions we're making today. I wonder what others think about this? --Dionne
that lady joan who came and talked to us made absolutely no sense at all and made me very confused.
i am really confused about what this preformance will be all about, but nonetheless, very excited as well!!!
Okay, so I went to the performance today, I thought it was pretty cool how much technology went into it, but I'm not much of a techno fan. I guess that's what you would call that.....
I wish we could've seen the whole performance!
:D Metro is ahmazing!!! wooot!
