Lectures were sometimes hard to pay attention to and the slides were also just filled with large quotations, making it hard to take notes. I did appreciate his care for these texts and he did a good job of integrating terms into the texts, which was really helpful when we got to the exam.

He makes the 'Sage On The Stage' lecture format work through sheer charisma. He's a brilliant mind, he makes very difficult texts more accessible (still challenging though), and he literally gave me the ability to appreciate experimental literature at all. You will read a lot but none of it is too hard. Strange to talk to 1-1, but kind. FRENCH.

Really good lecturer, and very interesting. wouldn't reccomend taking the class with an 8:50 lecture time as you don't get any allowed absences.

Yeah this prof is way better than this rating. The readings were very philosophy heavy but 1) If you paid attention they gave a lot of material related to the science fiction we read. 2) English also has background in philosophy and having a philosophy-heavy class isn't neccesarily a bad thing. I thought the material was relevant to times.

Very interesting professor and made class very fun to attend. Worked off of assigned readings to facilitate discussions and had 2 oral exams and weekly homework! Was an awesome course and helped me think about tech and AI.

He is a great professor, genuinely cares about what he is teaching. He is seriously interested in what students have to say about the course. No papers for this course, only two discussions "exams."
