This Aphex Twin video is certainly one of the most dissimilar music videos that I have studied. It intertwines elements of different genres, to create a video so different to reality; it shocked the nation when released.

Christopher Crosby Farley, definitely did not have a normal life, but it was not necessarily a bad one.

Youth experience college differently due to their foundations. Through many forms of communication, we have become conscious of the difficulties college students encounter because of pressures that intervene amidst their equanimity and education. The Ted talk “Bring on the learning revolution!” presented by Sir Ken Robinson, a well-received speaker of TED and the essay “College Pressures” by William Zinsser, a journalist, portray the crisis students are undoubtedly undergoing.
