The Wilderness Downtown

http://thewildernessdowntown.com/ is an innovative text that you've watched in class. Write a reflection about the text while considering the following.
  • How did the text tell the story?
  • What is different about this text compared to others? Compare to film, webpages, etc.
  • What are your thoughts about the text? Did you enjoy it?
A quick half page reflection is sufficient.
