I better not forget my locker combination and had better remember where my Student Advisory room was. The walk to school was the worst part, I thought it would take about ten minutes, all of which my mind was conjuring up worse and worse scenarios for the day.

When the narrator goes nearer to the tunnel, he says, “… terminating in a gloomy red light, and the gloomier entrance to a black tunnel, in whose massive architecture there was a barbarous, depressing and forbidding air.” The adjectives, “gloomy” and “black” give the readers a deep impression of the story that there is something unusual

Over the course of the past two months I have seen two productions. Both of them have been significantly different from each other. The first production I saw was a devised movement piece called “Seven Hungers” created by a theatre company named “Company of Wolves” directed by Ewan Dowie. This piece was devised, using only five performers, around the idea that there are more needs that we desire and hunger for than the basic necessity of food. The design team is made up of Annie Hiner, designer,
Ivy Blackwell’s dreams were killed on that fateful night in December. There was always one person in the wing who she had a sense was going to stab her in the back. Something always happened after her success, something personal to emotionally hurt her. Ivy could sense there would be danger in her performing but never that much danger. Ivy loved ballet; she started dance lessons at the age of 4. She danced constantly, including practice after school. She lived, ate and breathed dance. On all of her

This setting is developed to draw focus to the hostility that surrounds Paul. “His teachers felt this afternoon that his whole attitude was symbolized by his shrug and his flippantly red carnation flower, and they fell upon him without mercy, his English teacher leading the pack” (Cather 107) The teachers merciless attitude towards Paul contributes to his repulsion for school and authority. At school, Paul tells outrageous lies about

Representational art depicts the artist's personal perspective of the truth in the real world. Daniel Boyd is a representational artist that challenges the history of the colonisation of Australia and the overlooked Indigenous populations perspective. Boyd’s painting “We Call Them Pirates Out Here” (2006) appropriates Emmanuel Phillips Fox’s “The Landing of Captain Cook at Botany Bay, 1770” (1902) interpreting the monumental moment of the early European colonists as pirates that invaded the Indigenous

expensiveness of the style. Visitors can spot Radio City Music Hall by its iconic neon marquee that wraps around the building’s corner (See Fig. 13). The giant neon sign was added so that the building could be seen from the neighboring Broadway theatre district. The typeface is simple, but looks elegant in its even letter-spacing. The all capitalized letters of Radio City are made of multiple lines, which look similar A.M. Cassandre’s Bifur or other multi-stroke art deco typefaces. The sign stands
the film takes place in Kaede’s room, where she keeps a picture of Tetsuo’s head in the wall, occasionally writing her opinion of him on it. 4. Anti-Porn (Sion Sono) "Anti-Porn" is quite difficult to describe, since the borders between fantasy and reality, and past and present are almost non-existent.

Thus, as Commander-in-Chief of the Union Army, he directed his Generals to exploit the Northern advantages of superior rail system.

They seem frozen to the spot by the force of your voice. “That Boyd,” Jean says angrily, “that damned Boyd.” The room becomes silent. Jack turns to gaze out of the window at the beach. Jean takes your hands in hers and holds them as if they were some treasures she’d forgotten the value of, but now holds
