Symposium Reflection 1
- The articles relate to my topic because they each show how music creates aggressive thought and how they were used to interrogate people.
- Music was used to interrogate people and enemies.
- I did not change my topic yet. It hasn't been approved so I think we will have to change it just a bit. I still don’t have a driving question and my universal theme is conflict. We have to do all generalizations and I haven’t changed anything yet.
- I hope to find deaths caused by music that influenced murderers.
- Well the topic isn’t working that well because we have the topic but we already giving a bias that music is being blamed. We’re defending it and it wasn’t working well.
- I really feel like symposium is gonna be fun.
- I feel like my topic is going to be hard because there isn’t much information
- Music is being blamed but i feel like I support music because music is just a little part of impact on music.
Symposium reflection 3:
Since the last time I did research I found a whole new opening to our article. The opening is suicide. Gloomy Sunday is a Hungarian song that has been linked to hundreds of suicides.
The pianist of this song committed suicide after listening to his own song. His wife also killed herself also other hundreds of people. I also found out that heavy metal song cause more violence than rap songs. Heavy metal music has also been blamed for the cause of many deaths and suicides. For our SLR we are doing an interview on people who listen to rap and rock. A particular band we had in mind is slipknot. Slipknot is a rock band and there's been violent incidents that people blame on Slipknot because of the murder of this girl at school and the suicides of teenagers. What makes this difficult is that my group members aren’t working as hard as I am and they usually do everything at last minute. Some things I need to do is plan what we’re going to draw on the tri-fold board and our model. I was thinking involving Lawrences and my guitar since we both have an electric one. I was thinking the guitars we have because the electric guitar is a strong component of rock. The guitar is what makes rock so famous. Maybe me and lawrence could perform a heavy metal rock song. Or we could make a music video of us playing that song. Maybe we could just model the guitars. My group and I still haven't thought of what we’re going to put on our tri-fold board. Some Things that aren't working well is that we are behind because we do everything at the last minute.
Symposium Reflection 3:
- I learned that the song Gloomy Sunday may inspire people to commit suicides. I also learned that some music can influence drug use. Music may also increase alcoholic uses.
- I learned that I did most of the work on my project than my teammates but I’m glad David helped me.
- We want to make sure that the board looks professional. We also want to make sure that our creative piece is symbolic to our project and topic.
- We were planning to make a face and a bubble thought. There's going to be music notes going into an ear. The ear is going to be an abstract ear in 3D to exaggerate the ear and what music may cause. Once the music notes enter the ears, there’s going to be violent thoughts like guns and blood. Also a suicide pole that has a knot for people to hang themselves.
- We need to finish our websites and also the QR code because we haven't finished that. We also need to improve and put more detail into the creative piece.
- The collaboration is going well. My group is helping me alot but sometimes all three of our members including me slack off a lot.
