Bill's Lecture today was really interesting and informative. I immensely enjoyed him showing how modern art progressed because it made me appreciate it much more, as I can see the meaning behind it now. On top of this it made me think of the progression of other things and how much I take for granted. The reading also supplemented this lecture very well, and I will probably read it again.
These are my personal notes from the reading meant to refresh my memory:
