Create a visual representation of a cultural artifact and include an analysis of the artifact. The artifact must be created by you. It cannot be something that already exists.
You will have to create an image that is either hand-drawn or using computer-based technology to make your visual.
You will need to write a two-page paper about your artifact. You can split the paper into two sections: description of the artifact, and an analysis of the artifact.
You must use at least 5 pop-culture terms either from the book or from class. I will •
give you a list that compiles many useful terms and definitions in week 7.
Your artifact either needs to exist within a culture that already exists (ex. American pop-culture, Japanese pop-culture) or in a culture that you have created yourself.
Your artifact must be created to exist in one of the three major realms: the commercial realm, the religious realm, or the political realm.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: What is a cultural artifact?
A: A cultural artifact is an object (in this case, a visual) that carries cultural meaning. Just about anything can be a cultural artifact. Creating your own culture or country or system of politics or religion can be a cultural artifact for the sake of this assignment.
Q: Does my artifact need to relate to American pop-culture?
A: No. If you have another culture then you are welcome to create an artifact that exists within another culture.
Q: How do I analyze my cultural artifact?
A: We expect your analysis to include a description of the artifact, followed by an explanation of the realm that it exists in (commercial? religious? political?), if it’s part of an already-existing culture or one you made up, how the artifact is related to p’opular culture and anything else you want to say about it.
