Incorporating the multimodal elements seems like a really good way to make this essay fun and engaging. I didn’t realize how difficult it can be to track down the photographer of photos or find the direct source. I plan to use a picture for my header that shows a man in a metaphysical state, implying that beauty can create a life of joy and transcendence. I also want to incorporate Marquardt’s golden ratio mask to show that society is obsessed with aesthetic beauty, in pursuit of perfection. I’d also like to highlight an important quote or two to draw the reader towards the main points. Lastly, linking to the podcasts will add an audio mode. I’ll use the little seagull and Purdue owl to properly site my sources and give credit where it is due!
