Compare a positive feedback loop and negative feedback loop for homeostasis. Body temperature is an example of a negative feedback loop. Imagine that body temperature was regulated as a positive feedback loop and explain what would happen.
Look at the figure of the brain lobes in your textbook. Do you think the chimpanzee would have the same brain lobes as that of a human? How might the chimp brain differ from a humans? Keep in mind the chimpanzee is the humans’ closest relative.

For assignment 1, you have visited a museum – either in person or virtually. You had the opportunity to choose from a few options, but there is one commonality among all of the museums that you had to choose from: they contained a valuable collection of art that you were able to see. Museums have been around for centuries and are used to contain and display the objects that a collector thinks are important and valuable. It gives the public an opportunity to see the relics from ancient civilizations or contemporary artists. Museums are considered assets in a community, and are centers for culture and learning.
Sometimes, though, the objects that are displayed have been stolen, or mis-appropriated or out of context. They are often seen as places of privilege – the collections were created by extremely wealthy individuals or communities. Additionally, many museums disproportionally highlight works by western, Christian, white and male makers. Marginalized communities are often even more marginalized in museums. Contemporary museums are trying hard to fix some of the wrongs that have been made throughout museum history, but like in the rest of our society, they have a long way to go.
For this discussion, I’d like for you to address the following questions in your thread:
Name a positive effect that museums have had on Art. How did this affect your interpretation of the works you viewed when you did your museum visit?
Name a negative outcome of museums on Art. Was there anything that you saw that you thought wasn’t quite right on your visit?
What is something that you think could change to make museum spaces more accessible to more people?
What is your favorite way to view art in your daily life?
Your original thread should appear on the discussion by Thursday of this week. Then take until the end of the day on Monday (6/28) to respond to a minimum of 3 classmates’ threads. As you are responding to your classmates threads, please choose one of their points, and compare or contrast it to your own post – how are you thinking similarly? How are you thinking differently? Your responses should be at least 75 words long.

1. While museums have many positive effects, I think one that first comes to mind is that they are places where precious historical artwork and artifacts will be preserved. I chose a virtual tour of the MET for this assignment and I have been to the MET in the past when I visited New York and the wide variety of pieces they have on display in their museum is really impressive. There are pieces from all over the world and there is something very reassuring about knowing that all of these artifacts will be safe and protected for future generations to see.
2. Something that has always rubbed me the wrong way about museums is that the vast majority of the items in their collections is stolen from their origin country. These pieces are rich with culture and the history of the place where it originated so it is only right that these pieces should be on display in a museum where the artifact has been produced. The amount of times I hear about demands for artifacts to be returned to museums shows that there is still disparate treatment when it comes to museums in the western world.
3. I think keeping museums free to enter is important because there should not be a paywall behind accessing human history and culture. I also think improved online experiences would be a good way to make museums more accessible. The MET’s virtual tour left a bit to be desired and majority of people are not able to travel to these museums as easily.
4. Personally I enjoy viewing digital art but if I am going to something like a museum I would prefer to be physically there.

Museum offers many fascinating collections to be looked at, drawn, written about, and handled. This museum is an excellent place to achieve the most critical goals, aims, and objectives of quality art to the best of my observation. The museum enables to fully understanding of art development. Museum provides a critical understanding of art, including practical, historical, and aesthetic comprehension, which is vital to the development of Artists and their work. Museums serve as the language of art. This language provides a complete education and allows individuals to progress their theories and practices and share their understanding with others.
The negative impact of museums in general for art is that maybe if a fire happens, it will destroy all collections. Theft of artwork may happen unless the institute takes extra precautions. In my observation of the museum, the space is okay to contain as many artworks as possible, but it seemed to me that some country artworks are massively represented or have a good collection of artworks while others are underrepresented. For example, the Chinese have many artworks represented In MIA, but Ethiopia has minimal artworks even though many innovative artworks are done by ancient times. For example, the rock-hewn churches of Lalibela. 11 churches built from one stone.
My favorite view of art is how the art is done, like how they choose the colors, the design, and the meaning behind it catch my attention and interest.

For this Discussion, I have divided you into small groups. After reading “Facing It,” by Yusef Komunyakaa, if this is the poem you choose to comment on, please post your comment. This comment should be at least three sentences long. If you prefer to comment on “The Colonel,” go to the next page.
Here are some things to think about when considering this poem:
Why does Komunyakaa tell us his face is black? Why is his race significant? What men were drafted and went to fight in Vietnam? Why does he describe his face as “hiding” in the granite?
He told himself ‘no tears” but immediately finds himself crying. Why? In what ways is he both “stone” and “flesh”?
Why is his reflection like a “bird of prey”? What is a bird of prey? The reflection is the man inside the stone, the man inside that war. What kind of man was he when he was a soldier in Vietnam?
He walks down the pathway along the memorial and tells us the letters that form the names look like “smoke.” Why is that an apt way to describe the names of those who died in the war? Why does he almost expect to see his own name up there? What part of him has died?
When he touches Andrew Johnson’s name, what doe he recall?
What is the poet trying to tell us when he says he sees the names superimposed on the reflection of a woman’s blouse, but when she walks away the names do not follow her? Is this the same experience for the poet, or is he telling us it is not as easy for him to let this experience go? How does he feel about that woman–is he envious, resentful?
When Komunyakaa crosses paths with a white vet–why does he tell us the man is white and how does he know the man is a vet, do you think? In what ways are Komunyakaa’s eyes “a window”? A window into what? They are men of two different races but what do they share?
What does it mean that the man has “lost his right arm/inside the stone”? What is the right arm a symbol of and what does it mean that the man has lost it in the war? Has he literally lost an arm or is Komunyakaa speaking metaphorically about something else the man (and the poet) has lost in that war?
In the final lines of the poem, Komunyakaa describes the memorial as a “black mirror.” What kind of present or future does the mirror reflect? He sees a woman making a motion with her arm and he thinks she’s trying to erase names. Why does he think that and what does it reflect about his own desires? Ultimately he see that she is “brushing a boy’s hair.” That image is both commonplace and chilling. For what future does Komunyakaa fear she is grooming the boy?
Your comment may address any one of these issues–or discuss some element of the photograph I have not mentioned above.
You will receive a Complete if you have done the post for this poem. You may comment on this poem OR the next poem. You do not need to do both.

Field Journal One: Reflections on So Help Me God: Examining the Religious Experience
This Field Journal reflects on the film So Help Me God: Examining the Religious Experience. By turns a
humorous, provocative, and ethnocentric film, it illustrates the continued expression of religion in
American ‘secular’ society and the spiritual yearning that exists in the midst of consumer society, and it
is a good ‘survey’ of the range of religions in the contemporary West. The film nicely illustrates some of
the reasons why anthropologists who study religion are more interested in religious behaviour than
religious belief. For those of you who have grown up in a Christian tradition, you will recognize some of
your religion in this film; for those of you who did not grow up with Christianity, then you will learn
something about the tradition here (although please note that some of what is presented is a
misrepresentation, partially relating to the point the protagonist is trying to make).
Find and view the film So Help Me God via UFV’s Kanopy Collection. If you are unable to access it via one
of the following links, do a title search within the UFV Library catalogue and access the film that way.
Please note that you will need an active library account. (The film may also be available via FVRL if you
have a local library account, however, you are only entitled to view a limited number of films via this
means).

As you watch the film, think about:
– what the film demonstrates about the ways in which people are similar across religions, and/or
about how they are different?
– what does the film communicate about the contemporary American weltanschauung
(worldview, a term used by the Jewish interviewee)?
– in what ways is the man on the quest like
– or unlike – an anthropologist (using the Metcalf
article and the first week’s lecture as reference points)?
– in your opinion, what is Simon Cole (the narrator) really seeking?
– why does the film have the title it does?
