  • Unpublished Letters by George Macdonald
    Defining Death as “More Life”: Unpublished Letters by George MacDonald Glenn Edward Sadler Who lives, he dies; who dies, he is alive. Phantastes ch. XIII ost readers of George MacDonald’s fiction, especially of his faerieM romances and fairytales, will recall his penetrating treatment of the subject of death and dying. A classic passage occurs, for example, at the conclusion of The Golden Key, when the Old Man of the Sea finally asks Mossy the ultimate question: [end of page 4] “You have tasted death now,” said the Old Man. “Is it good?” “It is good,” said Mossy. “It is better than life.” “No,” said the Old Man: “it is only more life.”1 Equally moving, in spite of its sentimentality, is the ending of At the Back of the North Wind, which depicts graphically Diamond’s dream-in- sleep death. Similarly, there is the ethereal death of the king, who becomes a sacrifice of “flaming red roses,” viewed by Curdie, at the end ofThe Princess and Curdie. As a writer of parables and fairytales, George MacDonald is at his best when he is seeing death through the eyes of a child. Through the eyes of his fictional children—Mossy, Diamond and Curdie—MacDonald envisions his cardinal belief in the cosmic role of the child, who as a redemptive figure participates in and exemplifies universal love and immortality. Mossy and Tangle become agents of life-giving renewal. Diamond is a source of lasting love. And Curdie is a symbol of universal victory over evil. In each case it is the process of dying-into-life (“more life”) that is MacDonald’s major concern: it is a theme which is to be found in everything he wrote.

  • 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.

  • Partynextdoor Unveils 'Partypack' on Ovo Sound
    PARTYNEXTDOOR UNVEILS PARTYPACK ON OVO SOUND, A COLLECTION OF PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED MUSIC FEATURING PND CLASSICS “PERSIAN RUGS,” “CANDY” FEAT. NIPSEY HUSSLE, “WEST DISTRICT” AND MORE LISTEN HERE DOWNLOAD COVER ART HERE October 16, 2020 (Toronto, Ont.) – The impact PARTYNEXTDOOR has made on R&B can be traced back to music that was never officially released and today, PND shares PARTYPACK on OVO Sound, a rare bundle of PND classics that define an era. The 7-track collection of songs, dating back to 2015 with guest features from Quavo, Lil Yachty, Murda Beatz and the late Nipsey Hussle, are now deemed some of the most sought-after tracks from the PARTYNEXTDOOR catalogue. Fans can now stream coveted slow jams like “PERSIAN RUGS,” “THINGS & SUCH” and “DON’T DO IT FOR YOU NO MORE.” PARTYPACK resumes the GRAMMY® Award-nominated artist's prolific musical output from the release of his critically-acclaimed album PARTYMOBILE, which dropped in March of this year and features the now RIAA platinum-certified “LOYAL” feat. Drake and blockbuster single “BELIEVE IT” with Rihanna. PARTYMOBILE has collected over 625 million streams, making it his second Top 10 album ever. "PARTYNEXTDOOR has now made his triumphant official return," said HYPEBEAST of PND's fourth album. GQ raved that PARTYMOBILE, whose title is inspired by listening to music while driving, is "his best album to date." Forbes said, “PartyNextDoor’s ability to pull inspiration from all his previous work to craft a wide array of after-hours R&B and alternative hip hop has led to the creation of one of the best LPs of its kind.” In 2020, PND has also been featured on tracks from Summer Walker, dvsn and Trippie Redd.
