Music freewrite

Hide Folder Information Instructions This week’s music freewrite will be different. In week seven, watch the clip from the movie “Ratatouille.” As you watch it, imagine that, instead of talking about food, Ego is talking about music (or art generally). Write a freewrite on one or more of the following questions: What does Ego mean when he says “the new needs friends?” What is “the new,” and why would it need friends? Looking at the world around you, how many friends of new music do you see around you? How would one go about being a “friend to the new” for music?

Does it remind you of anything else you’ve seen in this class? What does the word “ego,” and why would the filmmakers call him that? Video to watch:
