Assignment 5 - Blog: Most significant discovery

In the renaissance dance I did not really like either of the dances but I can relate to the country dace because in the Hispanic cultural when a young women has her 15th birthday or when there’s a wedding usually after you eat you get up and dace and have a good time. If there is any party then you learn a new dace and everyone else will start doing it. I just do not have and special or traditions that I do in my family

Unit 4 Dance

Clothing and dance go hand in by allowing you to express yourself in a creative and appropriate way. For example if a rapper made a song that was not aproate then they would hire dancers to wear clothing that made them look inappropriate. Or if a dancer was a ballerina then they would wear a tutu to hat she is a ballerina. You have to dress a certain way so that the audience knows what you’re doing or what your point is.

Assignment 2: Blog - What would you choose? East West

The sport that I would Freeze-Frame is boxing. The reason I would freeze-frame boxing is because in my opinion it’s cool to watch on TV also in boxing you can see how hard the boxers hit. It’s a dangerous sport but many people like watching it on TV. The movement I would choose to freeze-frame as an art piece is one of the boxer’s gloves gliding across the face of the other boxer so that you can see that the other boxer can get hurt. I chose  boxing and that particular freeze-frame because I want people to know that violence is never the answer to someone’s problem and that someone can get really hurt. In my opinion I do not think boxing has a significant meaning in our society because it teaches you that it’s OK to fight because you’re stronger the someone else.

                           Assignment 2 Codes of  Ethics

Some of code of ethics are family,responsibility and being truthful. Were my code of ethics came from are my friends and family. I think having your family is great because they should support everything you do and encourage you to do your best and be someone in life. Responsibility is important because you should know right from wrong and be responsible for your actions instead of blaming others. In my oppion you should value truthfulness so that you can gain the trust of friends,family,coworkers and not live with guilt that you lied to them.

                            The 1899 Painting by Vuilliard

In Vuilliard's 1899 painting you can see were he tryed to use balance when he put small and big objects on the left side of his painting and on the right side. On the left side in the back ground you can see a small table and a vase, and on the right side you see the lady sitting at the table with something in the background. In his painting one principle of design I do see is proportion. You might be able to see this in the color when he uses light colors to dark and big shapes and small shapes. you can also see repetition on the ladies jacket and on the walls thay keep the same shape and colors.

                                       Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire

What I learned is that Fred danced with Ginger because he was wanting to marry her and he didn't know how to ask her so he danced and sang to her to capture her attention. They also danced to the beat of the music so that they could do a good performance for there audience. Its smooth classic music and maybe its a love song. I think its trying to say that you can fall in love with someone when you look into there eyes.

   Assignment 1 - Blog: How "place" shapes our way of thinking

I grew up in Lexington, Kentucky in the projects for about four years and it was in the rural area like around the city.Then in 1998 I moved into a trailer on a street called newtown pike. I had lived there for about nine years and I was about twelve years old. Then I moved to Denver Colorado with my dad,stepmother and two brothers. The apartments that I lived in was far from the city and close to my school. There were lots of buildings, and I remember there was this big opened land were some construction people were beginning to build a park. when it was done it looked really nice. While I lived in Denver there was this place called Golden Colorado while passing through there it had some houses and buildings it was like a town. My dad had to work there and he helped build a bridge. It seemed as if there was always construction going on.
