The drum major’s voice rings out, sharp and clear in the tense silence. We hear her call us to set, and we freeze. The band is across the field, standing a block, every member leaning forward, forming the same angle towards the ground. We are lined up from the 35 yard line to the 45, lying on the wet grass as if we are asleep. We are perfectly still, then suddenly we rise, kicking our legs in unison.
From the moment you awaken to the moment of you fall asleep your eyes help your brain collect the images of the world. From different structures to sizes, difference in distance, variations, and most intriguing, color. Color is the reflection of light from an object or source. But how is color gathered and interpreted by our brains? We are able to see objects by the reflection of light an object emits which passes through different structures in our eyes.
Despite the innocence and ignorance children possess, they still hold the key to our future and based off of their influences, must change the world or keep it the same. This piece is related to the novel, Fahrenheit 451 and shows a young girl full of sadness facing the dystopian society of androids. First, you notice the gloomy, yet threatening mood with the setting having a chaotic look to it. The colors are dull besides the red in the robot's eyes and the blue on and surrounding the girl accompanied by the imagery of impending doom by a robot army. Although this piece seems as simplistic as a girl just staring at a robot head in fear, it actually has the a deeper theme of children in this dystopian society trying to sympathize and convince the authority figures to change for the better of mankind.
Racism is still alive and well. Over the past week, we had the opportunity to view and hear two different scenarios about racism. This paper is going to focus on the comparison and contrasts of the video True Colors with the guest speaker, Adriel A. Hilton, Ph.D., information and experience regarding racism. The comparisons between these two situations regard education and sophistication, white privilege, and public harassment and treatment, while the contrasts focuses on the time period, different scenarios, and the information provided by Peggy McIntosh.
The Color Code The color code is a system that assigns people a category based on their personality traits. The color code is important for many reasons in everyday life, but the key is, you must know your color in order to benefit from it. There are four main colors in the color code, red, blue, yellow, and white. Each color has unique motivations as well as strengths and weaknesses.
Select a recent, local, national, or international problem and explain why it is meaningful to you. How do you anticipate your college experience and your pursuit of your intended major/academic interest will help you develop a greater understanding of this issue? An issue close to my own heart is one that affects women on a local, national, and international level. Misrepresentation and underrepresentation of women in the media is something that has been around since media of any form first started, but despite the ever-growing diversity of our nation and the world, the staggeringly low number of women in mainstream media has only gotten marginally better.
“A Perverse Hue” When going into the world we are given this seemingly perfect path that is supposed to take us into our later lives and be successful. This is supposed to lead us into pristine colleges and from there it leads us into an actual career and then that is supposed to equal a good life. While making a career and having a successful life sounds nice. Sometimes I think do I want this life or to go on this path. In the song ARTPOP by Lady Gaga it portrays the message of not only being satisfied in life, but being content and stepping off the seemingly perfect path to find it.
Are you ready for something amazing? Are you ready to be admired wherever you go and envied for your singular style? Are you brave enough to experiment with bold colors? Then you simply have to have rainbow hair – the hottest look around!
In 1932, a new architectural style in the modern movement emerged to free the architectural form from any decorative element (Hitchcock and Johnson, 1966). It was influenced by the philosophy of Adolf Loos “Ornament and Crime”, where he describes ornaments and decorations as a crime since they are labour intensive (Encyclopedia of World Biography, 2004, para. 7), As well as “form follows function” by Frank Lloyd Wright (Runco, 1999, p. 82). Both philosophies advocated simplicity and functionality rather than creating decorations. Therefore, color has not been discussed enough although of its important role, since it was viewed as a choice for a decorative purpose. Moreover, books at that time documented only black and white photographs, which resulted a strong impact on how buildings are perceived.
Notecard 1 Stewart, M. (2011). Launching the imagination (4th ed.). New York, NY: McGraw-Hill Higher Education Original designs are typically done in black and white. When color is added, these designs become better and more complex. The designs attract attention due to the great visual and emotional force that color gives.
