I learnt of the changes as I shared a meal with my friends after they voted. The terror and despair we each felt reminded me of the hyper reality Baudrillard foretold in his works about the postmodern society. In Simulation and Simularca, Baudrillard cites the evidentiary changes observable in the postmodern era, marked mainly by the emergence of the simulation society (McQueen, 2014, p.8). The defining aspect Baudrillard notes of this period is the subjection, acceptance and adaptation of the hyper

Andrew Arvanetes piece Tin Man sits right behind one of the newest additions to campus, and in front of the River and walking trail. The Tin Man can be seen from a very far distances, for example where the child cares playground was moved to they have a great view of both Chicago Nike and Tin Man. Tin Man by Andrew

Edouard Manet, an artist most commonly known in relation to the advent of modernist art, is credited with introducing such painterly techniques as producing flatness in painting, and, a layering down of hues (alla prima). He is regarded as the father of modernité, having many written works have been produced as supplements, responses or studies of his paintings and influences in art—three of which I present as subjects of scrutiny in this paper: the Painter of Modern Life by French poet and essayist

Functionalism in Brazil: cause or style?

The three authors Jorge Luis Borges, Scott Russell Sanders, and E.B White all have different stories yet somehow they tie together. Borges’ “The Keeper of the Books”, Sanders’ “The Men We Carry in Our Minds” and White’s “Once More to the Lake” all touch upon perception throughout their stories. Their perceptions thoroughly shape their stories, but their memories also influence and shadow their perception as well. Throughout this essay I hope to prove how memories influence and tie together with our

PARADISE FLUBBED: Pynchon & the New World When, in Gravity's Rainbow, "A screaming comes across the sky," it is the sound of a V-2 rocket arcing up and over the English Channel.But the rocket's vapor trail (which Pirate Prentice sees from kneedeep in the primordial mulch of his bananararium) points further on: over the Atlantic, on toward America, the New World, Tyrone Slothrop's "yearned-for, perhaps illusory home." The rocket's path ends a fraction of an inch above the reader's head, the

Postmodern art is the representation of the return to pre-modern art styles and genres, and there is no longer a division between art, popular culture, and media. This philosophical term challenged and reacted against what modernism had to say, echoing dramatic changes in our social and economic features. Furthermore postmodern essays and critiques coincided with the arrival of contemporary art. Contemporary art is more socially conscious and philosophically all encompassing of several styles and

Don DeLillo is an American writer born in 1936. DeLillo is a postmodernist and has written eleven books receiving various awards for his work. The title of DeLillo’s eighth novel White Noise brings forth many assumptions towards the overall meaning of the book. If one was to generally interpret the meaning, “white noise” is produced when sound waves are joined together creating a constant buzz. This buzz can produce a relaxing or an overwhelming feeling, depending, if it refers to a repetitive noise
