  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • Michigan State University College of Engineering Spring 2021 Design Day
    MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING SPRING 2021 DESIGN DAY Executive Partner Sponsor We at Amazon are honored to partner with the College of Engineering and Michigan State University to highlight the amazing work of MSU Students for Design Day Spring 2021. Amazon has witnessed innovation, creativity and solution-focused ideas from previous Design Days, and we know this one will be no different. MSU students work relentlessly to solve real-world problems using their skills and knowledge acquired while in the College of Engineering at MSU. These skills will help propel them into the workforce, where they will be our future engineers, leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs, and outstanding co-workers. At Amazon, we use our leadership principles every day to guide our decision making, problem solving, and discussing new ideas. We see those leadership principles integrated in the projects presented in this Design Day booklet. Students are customer obsessed as they work backwards from the customer to solve for what is really needed. They work hard to invent and simplify on behalf of customers, trying new and different experiments before finding the best simplified solution. All student teams delivered results in their projects to showcase for Design Day, and we are excited for them to be our future. Congratulations and best of luck to all the students, faculty and staff who helped make this Design Day a success for MSU and all its partners. We at Amazon Detroit are proud to be included and look forward to working with these students in corporate jobs. Amazon is always looking to hire and develop the best.
