>In this interdisciplinary seminar we will explore a variety of 
>methods for self-exploration and self-expression, including writing, 
>photography, and art. Through discussion and related exercises and 
>assignments, students will explore who they are through utilizing a 
>variety of media, with special focus on photography. Topics to be 
>covered include personal history, family traditions, how gender, 
>race and cultural background impact our sense of self, how others 
>see us, and our values and goals. Students will work toward 
>completion of a project which can include pre-existing or original 
>artwork, photography, and writing.  Students will be invited to 
>submit final projects for an exhibition open to members of the MIT 
>community. No prior experience with photography or artwork is 
>required. Cameras will be provided for those who don't have access 
>to one.
