Document Summary

In this first portfolio entry i will be using the critical skill play: creative spinning. Together of ideas (using different ideas to analyze one concept or theme) to explore themes and texts that relate and connect to the course. I will be demonstrating this critical skill through the themes topography and identity which are exemplified in the texts incognita inc. , by ellison and excerpts from the lure of the local by lippard. Creative spinning together of ideas is to use your creativity into spinning together ideas in a very specific sort of way. In the short story incognita inc. by ellison, we explore the theme of topography. In this specific case, the map leads to one"s heart"s desires. This short story is about a man named charles trimbach who is sent back to chicago his home town by a big corporation that he works for to close down a small map shop.
