Module 11 Video Blog

I choose the "Dada and Surrealism" and "The Impact of cubism" videos. I choose both of these videos because they were two topics that really interested me in the reading.

A key concept I learned from "Dada and Surrealism" was how Dada got started in Germany after World War 1 as a reflection of how people felt about the government. another is how Surrealism was created to explore the brains subconscious. a key concept I learned from "Impact of Cubism" is how much of its inspiration originates in African tribal iconography, which was interesting.

These videos go into much more dept that the text, although both of these topics are covered in detail in the text. In previous weeks I choose videos pertaining to topics that were hardly mentioned in the text and found that more fulfilling. While the videos were very good and informative, I think that in future modules I will stick to topics that I didn't really learn much from the text about, as it is more interesting to learn new things then go over some information again.
