Has anyone else been to Professor Boone's classroom to see the four symbols he left for us to think about? They also appear in Ms Kelly's "Thanks For Listening" vid. (I think it's significant to listen to what she is saying as each of these images appears... I think the narration provides additional clues to those images.)

I've been doing a little research on them... I have a little information for all four, but have only managed to put together anything coherent for the first. Has anyone else come up with anything? One of the things I couldn't help noticing was that there are four questions that Ms Kelly has outlined for us to answer... and four symbols from Prof Boone. Is it possible that each of these symbols is a clue to answering the four Luminous Questions?

OOOHH, great idea Selena! they may relate to her questions, i hadn't thought about that.....

So for what it's worth, I did a little breakdown on the video based on what you proposed, Selena -

(I put them here for reference, I didnt' try to associate them with any of the symbols yet.)
The four Luminous Questions:
Who are they?

What do they seek?

What have they done?

Why is she allowing it?



Images from Professor Boones Office:

Consider your assignments to be like pieces of a puzzle. I believe that if we work together, we will be able to fit these pieces together in order to find this larger truth.



[Luminous]
It's about being whole. Gaps need to be filled. _______collected, sorted, catagorized. Darkness is so similar to light, clean, pure, and we need to cleanse. Stars are like the sun, they're just farther away. and only at night. Morning stars worry us, but for all the wrong reasons. A Kachina ______ _________ but I wouldn't know, cause I grew up as a girl.
(morning Star)

There's so many things I don't understand. You know what I mean when I say I feel "altered". I am compelled and urged. It's like holding my breath when the suffocation never comes. It's like breathing underwater without the burn. Air is alive. And water is essential. (water symbol)



[Selena]
Means moon, or sky or heavens. Atlas's daughters were raised into stars, all at the hands of Zeus. Selena was just one of them. It's about power, and how people use it. And images can extract. Prometheus was a rebel and hero. And I know because I went through ____________ burn with heat. [hexagon]

Image Pluto and Moons.

[Theresa]
He knew the man who collects my paperwork. I don't like being told I am wrong, when I know I'm not wrong.



[longlost]
Listen. My dreams soothe and sway, allow me peace as I splash and dive, and when I wake up I feel so rested, yet, somethings pulling. (enso)


This is far from being perfect or complete. It's late for me, so there are probably alot of mistakes, but I wanted to start looking at these in relationship with each other - filling in the blanks, collecting, sorting, categorizing. Dang, Ms. Kelly totally has me pegged

Why don't we each take a symbol and research it?? then we can get ideas on perspectives on what each might mean and how they relate to the four questions...

I hate that I've been so busy. This is great! I'll look into those symbols some more.

Are the images/links here old?
