Marion L. Pooke - The One Night Stand (ca. 1915)

The title of this painting does not refer to how we use this term in contemporary vernacular; rather, it references a theater engagement or show, in town for a single performance. Pooke’s depiction of a woman who was likely an actress or performer references the politics of gender and class at the turn of the twentieth century. Far from being a demure middle-class woman posing in her Victorian parlor, Pooke’s central figure is more marginal, for she engages in public performance. She does not look at the viewer, but rather sits in profile and holds a mirror. The contents of her dressing table are reflected in the mirror behind her, a subtle reference to voyeurism and the gaze. (source)

yesterday & today i've been thinking a lot about what it means to take children & teens seriously as knowledge creators. because of course people jump to the "oh so you want me to ask a 5 year old why the sky is blue act like the answer is true"

well no. but we should still be asking 5 year olds why the sky is blue. not just as a precursor to telling them the Right Answer but to encourage them to critically examine the things we take for granted every day. even if they don't know the correct answer immediately, whatever their answer is will tell you a lot about how they view the world. and it gets you as an older person in the practice of asking younger people for information instead of just assuming you have it all and they have none. and then if you ask them a question that you don't know the answer to, and they don't know the answer either, then you get to experience that process of discovery together.

this is something i need to work on. i answer a lot of "why" questions from the kids but i don't ask them many.

and then it extends to creative endeavors too. i'm a classically trained pianist & flautist and i really like that i got that experience growing up. it was one of the main ways that i got to enjoy being really good at something at a young age. but it took me a good 5 years of being absolutely miserable in piano lessons before i learned to enjoy it at all. and that was because of LABOR ALIENATION fuck ok i'm putting it all together now. i didn't get to choose what genre to play, what pieces to play, or how much to practice. my job was to reproduce The Greats with whatever little personality flair i could manage to add without bastardizing the work. i learned a lot of music theory but it was mostly so i could understand the pieces i was playing, not so i could use it to create my own work. nobody gave a shit about that.

i know i'm probably just reinventing the suzuki method or whatever but god how different would it have been if i'd been taught how to use music theory as building blocks to interpret my own experience, to create my own work. to have that as the central purpose of music education from the beginning, and then add education about historical movements & artists as a way to further inspire new creations. instead of acting like music composition is a right you have to earn.

what if we treated children's creations seriously as a body of work instead of as practice for the Real Thing. what then.

anti-parent

the more i think about it the more i'm realizing how much montessori et al has tried to address all of this but like. in practice there's still a huge difference between a small group of disproportionately rich white kids getting to do this while trying to maintain the rest of capitalist society vs. this becoming the main ethos of education in general. or even of this being adopted as a major effort within mass working class movements. ough anyway good morning
