Key Notes
Jiang says the class is uniquely structured by three features: it is free, it contains an unusually diverse set of students, and it live streams everything without rehearsal.
Jiang says the prior livestream had sound, missing-video, and resolution problems, and that the team will upload a complete higher-quality version later.
Jiang says the point of the founding-members livestream is to expose his method for watching, interpreting, and analyzing news in real time.
Jiang says this is his first solo livestream and that he may later use moderators or Zoom participation because continuous speaking and chat management are exhausting.
He says the first founding-members livestream was more exhausting than expected because he had to talk continuously while also reading and answering live chat.
Jiang closes by telling the class this is his last school session, that he will continue teaching, and that two weeks from now he will livestream Dante to a global audience.
Jiang says the planned livestream series is an experiment meant to form the basis of a school community, beginning with a founding-member livestream and then a later livestream for paid subscribers.
