For my beauty Article, I chose to use a national geographic article about the enigma of beauty. It uses actual people during real conversation to get an idea of what the average person deems beautiful, and then it dissects the response and constructively tells the people what their standards of beauty really mean. I like how the article admits people are born differently and people can be judgmental about it, but those who don’t instantly deny their feelings often find love.
For my podcasts, I chose Peters and Me and Alex’s. I like how peter took a different approach and tried to convey beauty using something material, like a math proof. I think I can get some great thoughts out of it about the understanding of beauty, and maybe explore it a bit further. I used my own podcast because it was exactly what I was looking for when given the third paper prompt, and my interviewee gave very good and original responses to my questions. Each presentation did not exactly change my mind on the subject of beauty, but they did a very good job of expanding my understanding. Here’s Peters link: https://pfox1.uneportfolio.org/
