Argumentative Paper: Artificial Intelligence in Music There is something about music that seems inherently human. It can make people cry or laugh; jerk their bodies or stop them in awe; and even motivate them or put them to sleep. For the most part, humans have been the only ones to create and use music for recreational use for millennia (Armony and Vuilleumier, 2013). With that being said, it is difficult to imagine music being made by anything else. Truly powerful, moving music, not simply a…

If your recordings are distorting with that awful digital clipping that sounds like a garden rake scraped across a chalkboard, I am not likely to your recording skills very seriously. When initially setting the input gain to your recorder, keep in mind that most vocalists get a bit more excited as they warm up, and they begin…

At the concert, I was a perspective listener. The perspective listener is a combination of all of the listener types. A perspective listener enjoys the sound of the music but is also critically aware of how it makes them feel and why and it also makes associations with the music whether it being from a feeling or a memory. Going to the concert I was listening with great concentration, trying to hear every aspect of the piece. I through the concert tried to find meaning and purpose in the music.…

Outwardly Brave, Inwardly Weak The memoir Autobiography of a Face, written by Lucy Grealy, is about a girl working towards being brave and overcoming everything that she has been through. Bravery does not always have to mean being strong and never being upset. Bravery is standing up for yourself and even if your break down and open up at times, that makes you a stronger person than someone who bottles everything up. You are controlling how things go for yourself, which is one of the most…

to escape having to sit in silence with nothing but their own thoughts. Often times when the mind is left alone to wander it stumbles upon things that people try to push out of their memory and avoid. By using strong imagery, structural devices and sound effects song writer Tyler Joseph of Twentyone Pilots discusses this theme in the song “Car Radio”. All throughout the song Tyler manages to incorporate striking diction and phrases that set in place the impact that sitting in silence has on a…

The item that I plan to market is a customized pitch pipe for the band Pentatonix. A pitch pipe is a small device used to provide a pitch reference for musicians or singers. The common vocal pitch pipes are circular and made of metal, usually brass and are known as a free reed aerophone. This product is a great fit because Pentatonix is an a cappella group, so perfect pitch is the backbone of this group. This merchandise covers a serious note for those fans that love the band and can sing, and…

When it comes to audio production for R&B, the beat and the song lyrics are the best to focus on to make the best out of your music. Create a unique theme, if it has been overly used before, take note that chances are that people will not pay too much attention on it. In Chris Brown's song with you he talks about a guy that was with a special girl. Instead of talking about how much he loved her in the old conventional way he sings about how lucky he is to have her in his life. This seems like…

The Importance of Reflective Listening in Professional Contexts Effective communication is integral across a variety of professional workplaces to build and maintain relationships. In an interview with a professional in two diverse workplaces –on the spectrum of oral to written communication– I had the opportunity to discuss common miscommunications and their potential solutions. Through reflection and research, I investigated suitable communication skills to effectively supplement my future…

*Texting and walking simulation* I am 17 years old I have had my licenses for over a year now, and haven’t gotten in any accidents. I became a little more risky, using my phone, looking away from the road more. I didn’t think that getting in an accident would ever happen to me, I thought I was a great driver. Until I cross the median into oncoming traffic with my friends in the car. I’m unconscious, I had to be pulled out of the wreckage. I was rushed to the hospital into surgery. The nurses are…

that makes sound waves to produce or record a picture of the internal organs. Sonography is an important medical field because it allows technicians and physicians to see and diagnose a patient’s condition in a minimally intrusive way. What once may have required exploratory surgery now is a quick outpatient procedure with minimal patient discomfort. Ultrasound works by using a high rate of sound waves and echoes: it’s like echolocation which some animals use to find objects by sound. An…
