1. Leth handles the tasks at hand fairly well for the most part; he only does not complete the second obstruction to Trier's liking and is punished for it. 

2. The obstructions are helpful in Leth's creative work whether he knows it or not. They seem like stumbling blocks but the way Leth does what he can to go around the instructions to mold them into his own creations he turns these apparent stumbling blocks into instructions that foster creativity. 

3. It is very relevant to this class as well as other college art classes because for most projects there are sets of instructions students are expected to follow while students are also expected to add their own twists and creative parts beyond what the instructions say to do.
