Alright, for those of you who are interested in the social - TopicsExpress



          

Alright, for those of you who are interested in the social experiment I alluded to yesterday, here are your instructions. At some point in the next week, select a Pandora station based on an artist you thoroughly enjoy. Due to Pandoras tracking algorithm, this will only work if it is a new session, not an existing one. Once you have it up, follow these instructions. -Listen to this station for approximately 1 hour, give or take 5 minutes. During this session, I would like you to listen carefully and pay close attention to all lyrics in each song. -Every time a line or verse in a song evokes some form of emotional response, I want you to write down that line or verse (maximum 4 lines), the artist and song title, and in 20 words or less, I want you to describe what those lyrics mean to you. I want to know what they make you experience, or what they make you want to do in that moment, anything at all. Whatever your mind conjures because of those words, I want a basic description of what it is. -From each of you, I will need at least 3 of these sets of data, along with two other data points: your personal opinion on the intrinsic value of the last 6 months of your life (positive, negative, or neutral), as well as your personal outlook on the next 6 months of your life (optimistic, pessimistic, or neither). When you have finished your session, please message me with your data. Collected data will be for my eyes only, unless I find a verse and its emotional descriptor exceptionally profound, in which case I will share it anonymously along with my results at the close of the experiment. If you are reading this and choose to participate, simply follow the instructions above and message me your data by Saturday. Thank you all for your participation.
