Diy Projects And The Diy Project

I now realise that the Arts, including music, creates opportunities to engage, inspire and enrich our lives. Music making and responding can challenge, provoke responses and enrich our knowledge and understanding of ourselves, our communities and the world.

Louder Than a Bomb has helped allow students to express themselves and grow not only as individuals, but as artists all the while gaining the self confidence to share their experiences, thoughts and ideas with others, and the wisdom to listen to other people’s stories as well. Students also develop their teamwork abilities by participating in a group poem where each member of the group contributes in the construction of the poem, a mandatory exercise for the competition. Students who participate in Louder Than a Bomb find the diversity in it’s participants with differences ranging from age, GPA, ethnicity, and strengths; the one thing that they all share in common: their love and interest in

Music is a very powerful expression of emotions that come together as a whole to morph your psychological feelings into a sub-reality vision. Over the many years, history has been able to capture the moments at which music has made an impact on human lives. We can start with Manu Chao the artist that sings about left-wing messages and portrays his concerts as “collective therapy”. Or Juan Gabriel the young man that rose out of poverty to become the world’s most beloved artist/songwriter and whose music carried a resonate flamboyant style. Music is a way of communication that is used in many realms such as entertainment, tradition religion and sporting events. So far this semester, Chic 316 has influenced me to seek a more coherent relationship

Music has always been a thing that has interested me. The idea of people putting their talents together to create something has always amazed me. Being in a discourse community like music is always going to be difficult starting out. Working with others was never my strong suit, and all of the preparation and studying stressed me out. It sucks to try very hard and have it all result in nothing. It is the idea of perfection that everyone strives for. In my case, it is a group effort of the people involved in my discourse community to achieve our shared goal. We strive to please ourselves and others listening by giving a solid performance. My music class is a discourse community that shares a passion of music and a similar goal. We assist

I’m a music lover. You will never catch me without my headphones, I’ve always been someone who listens to music not just for the lack of boredom but for the motivation music conveys. Music is important to me because it triggers sensory feedback from strong vibrations that express poetry of emotions from the words an artist provides. In the novel Shadowshaper by Daniel Jose Older the author captures how artists can convey power through art. The amount of appreciation I share with music would be as equivalent to what the Shadowshaper share with a piece of canvas.

Many times I have struggled to express myself. A plethora of ideas would be trapped inside my head. Sometimes I would be at a loss of words and couldn’t explain my thoughts verbally or on paper. No matter how much effort I put in, my words wandered off and I could find no method of portraying my emotions. After many failed attempts, I finally found something that could express what I feel and what I want others to feel. It’s music. Performance poet, Sekou Sundiata, is able to clearly express himself in a way where others can understand him by incorporating poetry with music. Both Sundiata and I were searching for a way to share our life experiences in a creative yet understandable format; we accomplished that through music.

As an event planner of an art exhibition in my community, my focus would be to develop ways in which the community can participate in the exhibit and how the exhibition can benefit the community as a whole. Art exhibition attracts the members of the community to come together in an appreciation and awareness that fosters unity in the community. Experiencing art at the local community helps to reveal the character and identity of the neighborhood. It enriches the lives of the people as they come together and shares a public space, the interaction of shared thoughts how they feel about the art promotes positive bonding between family members, children and even strangers (Art in Public Places, n.d.).

Occasionally, I find similarities in the most unrelated of genres. Country music’s eerie twang and the sensitive, stinging sounds of Chinese Huqin, both evoke similarly intense feelings of melancholy despite differences in composition and scale. Like with genres of music, people of different backgrounds express similar sentiments through dissimilar styles. Exposure to all types of music informs and augments my creative process just as listening to different voices expands our abilities to reason and resonate. For companies to serve a diverse population, maintaining workforce diversity is important to understanding the paradigms of different populations and incorporating this knowledge into products that reflect their user

A musician using symbols is able to share his or her life experience with an audience through a shared virtual experience. Even though the audience or listener is not literally

In “Is Art a Waste of time?” it is said that “Art’s impact grows by reaching larger audiences” (Southan, 439). For example, the more people who see images/videos of police officers harassing or using unnecessary brutal force on people of color the impact also grows. Individuals will start to empathize and want to make a change, therefore, bringing attention to the issue. Through art like images in the newspaper, videos on the internet, and paintings is how we learn about many issues going on in the world. If it was not for this form of art we would live in a world full of unaware people, and that would be chaos.

While art is only a hobby to some, it can be a source of happiness and closure to others. Art, literature, and music have helped numerous people through challenging times, being an outlet in which one can let their emotions out. This being said, struggles such as addiction and depression can have an affect on an artists work. Many artists would not have the same quality of work they have today if they did not channel their emotions through art as a outlet. Sharing experiences through art is one of the most timeless ways to tell a story, dating way back to some of the first pieces literature and music created. Art is one of the biggest outlets in which one can let their emotions out in a healthy and effective way, sharing one’s story, getting their feelings figured out, while impacting the quality of work that is created.

By showcasing traditionally underrepresented voices and placing important social justice issues in a musical context, the project will educate, encourage dialogue, and improve the campus climate for

Music is something we hear everyday whether it be from our phones,in our cars,or background music wherever we go. Over the years there have been numerous types of music that have different beats,sounds,and different emotions. Such types of music is hip hop and rap,alternative music,and rock and roll music. Music has a long time line and every single sound and type of music is intertwined within each other and influenced by each other. For these reasons music not only defines a type of sound but also recreates lifestyles and defines entire generations. The power of music can be seen from all different types of music.

This reflection can be personal, cultural, or political. What Street, Hague, Savigny, Eyerman and Jamison are trying to assert is that music can either be an inspiration for an event or be inspired by an event. Art in general has the power to challenge cultural

Art is a catalyst of change. It can confront both social and political issues as well as providing people with a creative outlet in which they can express their innermost thoughts and feelings - but what effect can art have on our society as a whole? Artists today have the unique ability to connect with people in a creative, innovative way that they can understand and interpret themselves. With this ability, artists are able to express their own views as well as influencing the views of others. Art is an immense part of our world – so much so that we barely even consider its impact upon us – but just how significant is the work of artists in our modern day society?
