TuneIn 4 - 04 Feb 2010 - Main.NonaFarahnik
Line: 1 to 1
 I have a much larger post I was going to debut with (an extensive and substantive revision to my curt first posting), but I guess I'll throw this out there.

I'm pretty sure I heard a Leary reference in class today and I thought it might be interesting to look at this class under his famed "Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out":

Line: 39 to 39
 In regards to the Drop Out step: I like how in this particular explanation Drop Out encompasses both casting off what does not matter and actively pursuing what one decides does matter. That is, dropping out is about realizing one's autonomy and then acting in accord with that autonomy, rather than being controlled unconsciously by other individuals. In this sense, Drop Out is a very active step, not simply a step of rejection and laziness, as might be implied by the name Drop Out.

*TurnOn: Professor Moglen has created an environment that allows my brain to light up! I certainly agree with your assessment of the music. Every Tuesday and Thursday, my mind eagerly anticipates the moment it can surrender to its right hemisphere. TuneIn: Now that we have had a few classes, we have acquired a certain degree of Moglenese. Other students recognize Moglenese when it starts and seem baffled by this curious process of thinking we are undertaking. I feel that the space he creates: real, emotional and virtual, gives us the room to tune in.
