  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • Lenny Kravitz: Let Love Rule - Nederlandse Editie Gratis
    LENNY KRAVITZ: LET LOVE RULE - NEDERLANDSE EDITIE GRATIS Auteur: Lenny Kravitz Aantal pagina's: 304 pagina's Verschijningsdatum: 2020-10-06 Uitgever: Kosmos Uitgevers EAN: 9789021578507 Taal: nl Link: Download hier Review: Lenny Kravitz - Let Love Rule In zijn teksten toont hij zijn afkeer van racisme, armoede en heroïne, en stelt daartegenover een sterk geloof in de liefde en in een betere wereld met de hulp van God. Op het eerste gezicht niet nieuw en bijzonder, maar de manier waarop Kravitz dit doet is dat wel. Kravitz is namelijk een oorspronkelijk talent, een persoonlijkheid. Het debuut wordt enthousiast ontvangen en na een als legendarisch betiteld optreden op 13 december '89 in het Amsterdamse Paradiso, is Nederland een van de eerste landen die hem volledig in de armen sluit. Met enthousiaste steun van Mtv volgt de rest van de wereld en wordt Kravitz in no-time een ster. Een status die hij eind '90 nog eens onderschrijft voor Madonna het controversiële Justify My Love te schrijven. Dat dergelijke turbulente ontwikkelingen een schaduwzijde hebben, blijkt uit de teksten op het in '91 verschenen Mama Said. De nummers gaan merendeels over Kravitz' verbroken liefdesrelatie met actrice Lisa Bonet, en muzikaal gezien is Mama Said minder evenwichtig dan Let Love Rule. Maar, ook al doet Kravitz af en toe alsof hij Curtis Mayfield of Sly Stone is, zijn muzikale persoonlijkheid blijkt onverminderd sterk en leidt tot bezielde, emotionele muziek. Hij levert diverse gastbijdragen aan andermans platen o. Dit album ligt rechtstreeks in het verlengde van zijn voorgangers, met dat verschil dat de hele muziekbiz op het moment van verschijnen retro-gericht is geworden en Are You Gonna Go My Way hierdoor minder opvalt.

The contents are sourced from a variety of avenues and publications. Every endeavour is made to determine that the contents are of the highest level of truth and veracity. At all times we ask that you go within yourself, to ascertain for yourself, how the contents resonate with you. Pascas provides these notes and observations to assist us all in the development and growth of our own pathways and consciousness. Pascas does not hold these contents as dogma. Pascas is about looking within oneself. Much of what we are observing is new to us readers and thus, we consider that you will take on board that which resonates with you, investigate further those items of interest, and discard that which does not feel appropriate to you. Kinesiological muscle testing, as developed by Dr David R Hawkins and quantified by his Map of Consciousness (MOC) table, has been used to ascertain the possible level of truth of documents. Such tested calibration levels appear within the document. We ask that you consider testing same for yourself. The technique and process is outlined within Pascas documents, such as Pascas Health – Energy Level of Food. From each person’s perspective, results may vary somewhat. The calibration is offered as a guide only and just another tool to assist in considering the possibilities.

  • 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.
