josh is a procrastination monster
i did a great deal of screenwriting that might be decent during the day but it's now seven seventeen and my essays are squealing at me.
uh oh.
I also am out of coke zero. uh oh.
watching things to come and analyzing the presence of women in early twentieth century sci fi, or sci fi as a sausage party. women tend to be either children or furniture. it's all very greek, the men packed into ships with other men this union becoming 'superior' to relations with women. is it because women are inferior, part of the untamed/savage world? or one could compare space exploration with the children's literature of the nineteenth century, pioneering adventures being the choice of boys: boys were assumed to be natural explorers while girls were trained to function within a controlled enviroment ie the household.(was it mcluhan who said this? i can't recall)
90s tv in weis was fun. i wrote for the majority of it though. i'm concerned about my decision to work without consulting my advisors this week, the direction i'm writing may not serve my entire purpose or rather the matrix i am constructing is more associated by tropes taking on various functions rather than an overarching morale or text...
I wish I had more time to research the Winnicott writings while writing this, it'd make the childhood/motherhood sequences much easier to tie to the machismo misogyny analysis. and this was after les and marie said to make things a little less dense.
It is less, I removed alot of material but now it's a little frail and naked, without the information overload that gives it the obsessive edge I'd like it to have.
ah diddums. Maybe I'll buy a 12 pack of diet soda and write my sf paper tonight, save all the anthro stuff for tomorrow...
I've got storyboards to finish as well... can't leave that to the last minute either.
I'd like to edit some stuff together for some professors to look at. Other students seem to be meeting with the staff more often than myself right now and I know that it's easier for the professors to critique something in watchable form than to read a thirty three page script (currently thirty three though IT HAS TO CHANGE)
hm.
