It's funny to consider textbooks as a form of media, but they completely are. It's probably unusual, but Daniel and I have started doing some of his class readings together--the really interesting, deep, and somewhat-difficult-to-understand-if-you're-not-totally-focused-on-them ones. Probably counter intuitive and lots of people think I'm crazy because I have plenty of readings to do myself, but it's been really cool. I LOVE the way they generate discussions and we both learn, while he gets to practice explaining things to me he learned in class that I don't know :). As isolating as media use can be, using this one to bring us together has been strengthening to our relationship. Yay... school?
