Meaning, there should be no notes, audio recordings, or visual recordings at this time because notes slow down or interrupt a witness's concentration, and recordings also intimidate most witnesses and will not give a true interview because they will choose their words carefully. The second step occurs after the interviewer "gets a good grasp of the…
Record companies are taking different approaches at stopping it. A few have gone as far as tracking down sources of pirating and suing the people they found to be behind it. For example, “The Recording Industry Association of America this month fired off 569 "pre-litigation settlement letters" to college students whom had been suspected of pirating music”(Rampell, 2008).

How do the plays of Shakespeare change when they are adapted for screen? Michael Almereyda’s adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet transposes one of Shakespeare’s most notable tragedy in modern day Manhattan, setting the framework for a modern retelling of the story. The use of “ complex array of media technologies, genres and practices” introduces the over arching theme of entrapment and imprisonment in the capitalist society thatHamlet resides in, immersing the narrative in a world of…

considered trite today, but its 1930 recording date makes it more iconic than anything. With its simple but insistent guitar rhythm and mournful lyrics, “Walkin’ Blues” is a virtual blueprint for Delta Blues, and a powerful influence on the development of modern blues. Son House’s influence was felt profoundly by Robert Johnson, whose handful of recordings did more to propel Blues into it’s modern form than anyone. Robert Johnson’s compositions and recordings were copied and incorporated into…
