What it means to be a reader

Note that the readings for our course have been distributed to groups of students. These students will be the "official" readers for our class for their given reading. Official readers should go to our class discussion web site, start a discussion thread for their assigned reading. The official readers should start the discussion thread for their reading by making one or more entries that explain what the reading is about and how it relates to our essay topics (e.g., information is real, information is perceptual, information is art).

Other students, puzzled by the reading, will be able to post queries about the reading to the discussion thread for that particular reading. The official readers will respond, clarifying what their reading is about, etc.
