    Sound Waves and how it relates to Room Acoustics We generally think of the speakers in our stereo or home theater systems as the final link in the audio chain — and the one that makes the biggest difference to our ears. But there’s much more to the sound we hear than just where you place your speakers in a stereo or home theater setup‚ and what comes out of them. You might not even realize it‚ but your room plays a rather large part in the sound that you hear from your system. And as with any

    The text that I will be analyzing is the song “The ’59 Sound‚” by The Gaslight Anthem. The Gaslight Anthem is a punk rock band that comes from New Brunswick. Many of their songs have tangled‚ cryptic lyrics which makes it difficult to determine what they are about exactly‚ but they always tend to be melancholy. The music sounds just like a pretty normal energetic rock song. The illusion of life perspective will provide the lens to find underlying meaning in this particular song. I expect to find

    Gloria Anzaldua’s Borderlands La Frontera the New Mestiza was hard to get through at times because of its distorted structure. The novel consists of short passages‚ historical contexts‚ poems‚ recollections‚ personal experiences‚ quotes and much more.

My lack of fluency in the foreign language that she used created a barrier that did not allow me to fully understand what

    As we grow on and on‚ all things we’ve done were left behind and slowly faded away. We could look back depending on our sound memories. Things that I believe memories of sound can influence our life are the impressive facts‚ such as accidents and tragedies‚ because those flashbacks always serve as lessons for me. Thus‚ I believe that our lives can be influenced by sound memories. About two years ago when I volunteered for china-town policing center‚ I discerned an extraordinary accident. And I

    Paul Simon’s The Sound of Silence A poem‚ like all other works of art‚ may appear as an inter-subjective truth‚ an intricate thread of images‚ a surreal yet realistic expression‚ and as a "creative fact" according to Virginia Woolf. In canon literature‚ a good poem is usually that which has fine structure‚ imagery‚ meaning and relevance; an art‚ which has sprung out not only of personal necessities but out of socio-cultural quagmires. Paul Simon’s The Sound of Silence transcends the mediocre

The song‚ “The Sound of Silence‚” by Paul Simon is about being revealed to the light. Seeing what one was never realized before. It relates well to the allegory of the cave by Plato and the book Fahrenheit 451‚ it was actually written as a response to this book by Ray
