University of California Irvine Five Songs Playlist Discussion
This week’s discussion builds on the material we’ve been working on all session.
1) Pick one scenario from the list below
•. 1/2 hour break before the final competition of the e-sports national championship (you are the e-athlete representing school).
•. 1/2 hour car ride to get to a job interview for a job you really want.
•. 1/2 hour wait for your car ride home from a terrible party. It’s 2 AM.
•. 1/2 hour wait for your younger sibling at their martial art class, so you can give them a ride home.
2) Devise a 5 song playlist that will best help you through that 1/2 hour.
3) In your response to this prompt, list the songs/pieces in order. In addition to the title, provide the year each song was written, who the performers are and where you first heard the song. Provide a link to the song whenever possible. DO NOT IDENTIFY THE SCENARIO.
4) In your response to a classmate, listen to their list to the best of your ability and try to guess the scenario. Explain your reasoning. How would you use your c;lassmate’s playlist?
