  • Writing Contest Entry Kristell Trujillo Academic Writing
    Trujillo 1 Writing Contest Entry Kristell Trujillo Academic Writing Trujillo 2 Exclusivity For All A rite of passage in the New York fashion scene has become based on owning a Telfar Bag. Available in an array of colors, featuring its signature embossed logo, and promoted by its hilariously unconventional advertising, the brand has turned its underdog status into a fashion staple and status symbol. Designer Telfar Clemens’s brand gained traction over the pandemic’s surge in racial conflicts, leading to a massive social media campaign aiming to bring attention and support for black-owned businesses. Contrary to the scarcity model followed by luxury brands, Telfar, has triumphed in its ability to control our consumer predictability through its weekly drops. Nicknamed the “Bushwick Birkin” for its popularity yet affordability, the brand’s personable and sometimes nostalgic appeal has imposed on our internal dialogue demanding we get our hands on this bag. On August 19, 2020 @TelfarGlobal on Instagram presented “THE TELFAR BAG SECURITY PROGRAM”. Using a mash-up of Oprah’s infamous “you get a car!” clip, while rapper Quavo’s voice is heard repeatedly saying “You get a bag!”; a sample taken from the Gucci Mane and Migos song “I get the bag”, linking a connection to Hip-Hop culture in their advertisements. The post was followed by a specific set of rules to secure the coveted Telfar bag. Telfar’s emphasis on having a product that can be accessible for all and the use of this specific clip and song is consistent with the theme that everyone can get a bag if they want one.

  • Pagerank on Billboard & Spotify Data UC Berkeley, 2018
    University of California, Berkeley College of Engineering Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Spring 2018 CloutRank EECS126: Project Report { Markov Chains: PageRank and MCMC Professor : Kannan Ramchandran Students : James Fang Rodrigo Henriquez-Auba Matthew Jrke Rishi Puri Date : 04/18/2018 clout /klout/ Noun 1. informal A heavy blow with the hand or a hard object. `a clout round the ear' 2. informal Influence or power, especially in politics or business. `I knew she carried a lot of clout' Oxford Dictionaries 1. Introduction The goal of this project is to rank R&B/Hip-Hop artists in terms of their collaborations with other musicians using the PageRank algorithm. We present several approaches to generating a PageRank graph using Billboard chart data and cross-validate these models using Spotify ranking data. Lastly, we employ our model to predict the success of new collaborations. 2. The PageRank Algorithm In simple terms, the PageRank algorithm is used to obtain a ranking on how important a website is based on which other websites link to it. The algorithm outputs a probability distribution π on the set of webpages W , where π(w) specifies the probability of a random surfer reaching a particular website. The intuition is that an important website should have a higher probability of a random surfer reaching it. In this project we employ the PageRank algorithm to obtain a ranking on an artist A1's importance (their clout) based on how often other artists A2; :::; An choose to collaborate with or feature A1 and how much clout these other collaborating artists have.

  • The Paws That Refresh Us
    ANTHONY LINICK LIFE AMONG THE DOG PEOPLE OF PADDINGTON REC. VOL XI The Paws That Refresh Us Life Among The Dog People of Paddington Rec. Volume XI Anthony Linick Introduction The same day that we returned after two months in California – having decided that we would not be moving back to the States at the beginning of our retirement – my wife Dorothy and I took our property off the market … and ordered a puppy. Fritz the Schnauzer arrived a few weeks later and by the end of June, 2003, we had entered that unique society of dog owners who people London’s Paddington Recreation Ground. The society in which we were now to take our place remains a unique one, an ever-changing kaleidoscope of dogs and their owners. The dogs represent most of the popular breeds and many of the mutt-like mixtures – and so do their accompanying humans, who come from diverse nationalities and from many walks of life: professionals and job seekers, young and old, family members and loners. They are united by their love of dogs, and on the central green of the park, on its walkways and at the café where they gather after exercising their animals, they often let this affection for dogs carry them into friendships that transcend park life and involve many of them in additional social activities. Fritz had been a member of the pack for about a year when I decided to keep a daily record of his antics and the folkways of the rest of the crew, human and canine.
