Interpret: to make meaningful connections between what you see in a work and what else you have seen/experienced.
This act of interpretation, I've noticed, always takes me a while. I basically look as if I am staring really hard or blankly at a piece..I'm really not though, it's a complext process. I don't like to just out right express what's on my mind when I look at something. I like to have this inner dialogue play out, basically I'm agreeing and arguing with myself. I was walking with Rachel earlier to class and we were discussing critiques. She made a comment to me that really made me think. "Sheldon, you always have the most interesting things to say about a piece of work, and what you do say is completely different from what anyone is thinking, almost as if you are able to see things in not only this light but several others. It's a great ability to have."
Maybe this inner dialogue I have with myself is my way of looking through thr different lights.
