Video Haiku

The title of my groups' video haiku was "Traffic." A haiku is traditionally made up of three lines. The three lines go in the pattern of having 5, 7, 5 syllables. The poem I wrote based on our video was (Line 1) He swiped into school, (Line 2) People, traffic, life around (Line 3) School of the future. Hunter incorporates a modern architectural approach in the heart of the city. The glass passageway that connects the three buildings are bridges connecting the past, present, and future.

This was the first time the duo became and trio. I found it harder to work with a third person, no matter how pleasant the person is. It was too many ideas being discussed. I've yet to learn how to tell someone "no I don't like your idea." However, I think the assignment was nicely done. Each of us brought a different perspective. I would have never thought that cluttered advertisements could be considered "traffic." The word traffic can be described as the movement of vehicles and pedestrians but it can also be defined as "the message or signals transmitted through a communications system."
