1. Resource Analysis: (3000 words + bibliography)
Write an essay analyzing a resource that is part of your everyday life. This could be a resource such as clean air or fresh water, sustenance such as a beverage or food item, access to knowledge such as a piece of scholarship or a database, a mode of communications/transportation, material or media you use in your own creative practice, a film, artwork, or other socio-cultural artifact. Track how this item becomes a resource, how and in what ways it becomes a commodity or a kind of property, and the framework through which it accrues value or exchangeability. How is access to this resource distributed? How does access to this resource allow you certain privileges or exclude others? How does it allow you to feel a certain way in your everyday life? Next, consider how this resource might itself be made more “common” or how this resource might be reframed or rethought in a way that enhances or problematizes the communization of life. You are required to critically discuss the arguments of at least three texts from the required reading list.
