Re: Purple and pink are long time Bungie game colo
Posted By: Flynn J Taggart	Date: 7/2/12 1:51 p.m.
In Response To: Re: Purple and pink are long time Bungie game colo (General Battuta) : Totally fair. The death of the author : (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_the_Author) is a slightly : counterintuitive concept in modern criticism which denies the importance : of authorial intent or history in the interpretation of a work. The strong : 'dead author' camp contends that the only source used in analysis of a : work should be the work itself - this can be taken to ridiculous extremes, : but I think it's often valuable. The creator often doesn't fully apprehend : what their work may be saying. A great example is Pixar's Ratatouille, : which is a fantastically crafted paean to the value of passion and : artistic genius, but which contains - doubtless without any intent : whatsoever - readings that include some utterly appalling messages about : women. : In this case, while it's interesting and cool to highlight Bungie's history : with the colors pink and purple, it doesn't undercut analysis of the use : of those colors in Halo with respect to gender and violence if you don't : touch on that history. Sounds like justification for lazy academics.
