Task (2) Read the Existential Lecture & Retrospective Response
Context: The Mind is a Scary Place
Existentialism was the brainchild of men who didn’t want the name attached to them. The movement has fuzzy origins, but generally, the end of WWII marks the beginning. Jean-Paul Sartre claimed the emerging ideas of ‘experience all things from the first-person perspective’ slowly organized under Existentialism. Soon, philosophers from Soren Kierkegaard up through Martin Heidegger, and famously Albert Camus, captured the essence of the human being through their art, novels, and movies.
1. Look at the picture ‘Axe Tree by Vladimir Kush’, which one are you, the axe or the tree, or both. Explain.a. I identify as the ax because I think of myself as a go getter an take go for whatever I want in life. Same as the ax symbolizing the cutting of trees for human use.
2. The “Standard view of the world†given to us by popular society vs “our personal alternative view of the world†is a common Existential comparison by Sartre in the lecture.

4. Existentialists and Black Mirror paint the nature of man as “a canorous, ignorant, savage beast looking to satisfy its desires.†Do you agree or disagree? Give examples.a. I agree almost everyone is self-centered and do things that will only benefit themselves. Prime example is all the competitions all around the world. You can look up online and there is a contest for just about anything to be in first place. People feel the need to be fulfilled because it’s in our nature to prove they are the best at something and they will cheat, kill, or steal to get to the top.
