“Motel 6” is the first track of Jean Deaux’s debut album, Soular System Vol. I: Dark Matter[s]. It describes Deaux’s mental state after being a victim of sexual abuse. The music video, released in October 2014, provides a visual for the gritty depiction of her emotional pain. Deaux’s audience are those who have been raped or affected by sexual assault. Through this music video, she provides an outlet for victims to relate and displays the mental and physical pain of sexual abuse. The music video for “Motel 6” only uses visuals to express a story, an element I would like to attempt to use in my project. Visuals without narration open the interpretation of the art to the audience. This allows discussion to form and creates a more interesting

Music videos are often seen as the parts of the song’s story that an artist has trouble putting into words. Sometimes these details are unnoticeable at first glance, while some are essential to giving us vital information on what the song is actually about. Michael Jackson’s famous “Thriller” music video is often viewed as a Halloween binge watching classic, but judging by both the visual and audio components, it may be more than just a crowd of dancing zombies. There are quite a few moments throughout the video that can easily be seen as symbolisms of abuse, stalking, and rape/sex. By viewing the Thriller music video with this thought in mind, I hope to help you see the true evil lurking in the dark.
No matter what problem we have or how big that problem is, we are going to face questions that are both social and ethical in nature. Geoengineering is a proposal that the scientific community agrees might be necessary to stop the global warming crisis. However, many question if this is ethically acceptable. Humans have already manipulated the ecosystem, but intentionally and unintentionally, but are intentional acts on a large scale a good idea or not (Corner & Pidgeon, 2010). We have no idea what can occur when trying any of the methods, as no one has ever done anything like this in the past to reflect on or to give us suggestions for how we can be successful. Depending on where the manipulation occurs, it can cause different responses

“All my life I’ve been a lonely boy.” Vincent Gallo’s Buffalo 66 is a peculiar, surreal film to analyze. As a semi-autobiographical work, Buffalo 66 greatly exaggerates the events in the film and makes the viewers suspend disbelief on more than one occasion. Yet despite this, the main focus of this film is a broken Billy Brown’s emotionally raw journey seeking revenge but instead finding unconditional love through Layla in the end, and the formalist film techniques used here enhance this. Through the deliberate use of photography, staging, and movement, Buffalo 66 works as a formalistic classicism film, a predominantly classicism film with strong elements of formalism, on the style continuum.

The Aloft hotel in Charlotte, NC will be the host to a band named Major Lasers in the month of January 2016. As the risk manager at the Aloft hotel, it vital that a risk management plan in put in place to protect the hotel and our special guests. Being one of the highest rated hotels in the Charlotte area, the property has a solid understanding of the operational risk associated with hosting such an event. The risk management department considers the band staying at the hotel to fall under the operational risk category, which is a risk we face day to day in operations of hotels (Nand, 2011, para.). The location of the facility makes the hotel a popular option due to it being near Time Warner Cable Arena, the venue for the upcoming concert. A good risk manager will start by conducting meeting within the risk management department to address the possible risk associated with the hosting of a major act, like Major Lasers.

Early in the year of 1976, a corporation known as Crown Center Redevelopment started a project to design and construct a Hyatt Regency Hotel in Kansas City, Missouri. The firm in charge of the structural design of the hotel was a corporation from Texas called Gillum-Colaco, Incorporated or G.C.E. International Inc. Throughout the following year, a team of architects and engineers worked together to formulate an appropriate design for the hotel. The hotel specifications were set and the project to build the hotel was prepared using standard building codes set by the administration of Kansas City, Missouri. It was not until the spring of 1978 that the construction for the Hyatt Regency Hotel finally began. On July 1980, construction of the hotel was finally finished and the hotel was officially ready and open for business. The hotel soon became famous for its unique and spacious architecture within. One of the most interesting features of the Hyatt was its lobby. This lobby was made up of an atrium that incorporated three skywalks that hung from the ceiling of the hotel. The skywalks were located on the second, third, and fourth floor, and each connected one side of the hotel to the other. The second skywalk rested under the fourth skywalk while the third was offset a few meters away from the two other skywalks. Certainly, the design of the hotel was something that the firm in charge of the hotel structure could be proud of, however, this was a firm of structural engineers
