Architecture in our Life
There are a lot of things in the world is important and we can not live without, but there some important than others. It is depending how the human live and what he needs. Architecture is important in our life. And it is changes a lot of things and the way we live. Also, it mads some changes on the earth.
First, Adolf Loos focused how is the earth is amazing, and he described the lake when it is green, and you can see the sky is blue from it. Also, how are mountains and trees being mad from god and the human cannot do something even close like that. By his words you feel of the beauty of the earth like you imagine you are in the place and you see what he is describing. He is looking at the place in architect’s way and how is created. And he is describing how does the place show the peace and beauty no more. Everything created by God not from the peasant nor the engineer. The joiner takes the measurements for doors and windows and all the other things they needed, then the go to their workshops and started the work. His goal was to build a beautiful house for himself and his family and he succeeded.
Inside of the house have many of different materials like velvet and silk and columns and moldings. After they said “how ugly and joyless our lives are! And they gathered together everything from the old cultures, established them in museums and said, look, that is true beauty. You have been living among wretched ugliness.” (Adolf Loos, 41). Everything is change with the time. Like in the past people covers everything in their body with tattoos from the face and body down. And it is a way to design and make the body beautiful, but today the way using and people thinking is different. Tattoos is a sign of degeneration and the criminals who using it. The architects can make ideas and styles of the buildings that in the past, but it will lose all the contact with the time.
Architecture is more than just buildings - it is life itself taking physical form. It is a creative spirit that reflects the nature of humanity and how we live. Great architecture designs ideal environments for people through the arrangement of space in a way that contains, stimulates, and exalts the individuals within. It conveys a view of what the proper environment for humans should be. Architecture is not just decorating the outside of a box, applying styles as fashion, or doing literal representation. It uses space to create total environments and an idealized world for people to inhabit.
The document discusses three architecture styles - Art Deco, Art Nouveau, and Neo Gothic. It provides background on architecture and then defines each style, noting key characteristics like geometric designs for Art Deco and nature motifs for Art Nouveau. The styles are then briefly compared by noting how Art Deco moved away from Art Nouveau's graceful motifs towards geometry and mass production materials.
Catalyst: Art, Sustainably and Place in the work of Wolfgang WeilederIoan-Cosmin Popan
The document discusses Wolfgang Weileder's art project "Jetty" which involved constructing a temporary artwork on the remains of the Dunston Coal Staithes structure on the River Tyne. It explores how the project highlighted the massive transformations caused by coal, translated perspectives between different fields, and gathered momentum through attracting various stakeholders. The project followed a mobile approach in tracing how different actors and ideas moved and influenced each other over the course of the project.
This document examines how an image of Zhang Lei's Taoyuan Postgraduate Dormitory in China circulated internationally and influenced perceptions of contemporary Chinese architecture. It details how the dormitory was featured in the 2001 exhibition "TUMU: Young Architecture of China" in Berlin, sparking discussion on Chinese architectural forums. While some praised its modern style, others criticized it as inappropriate or poorly designed. The exposure launched Zhang Lei's career and led him to focus on materiality. The document analyzes how this single image constructed an idea of "Chineseness" abroad and shaped the architect's career.
Le Corbusier was a pioneering Swiss-French architect and designer who was influential in the development of modern architecture. Some of his major works included Vers une Architecture, Urbanisme, and La Ville Radieuse. In Vers une Architecture, he argued that architecture should be based on rationality and modern engineering principles rather than historical styles. He advocated for the use of primary geometric forms and surfaces in buildings and the importance of regulating lines and plans in architectural design. Le Corbusier also promoted new approaches to mass housing that took advantage of modern construction technologies and standardized parts to provide efficient and affordable housing for workers.
1. Every great culture expresses its own ideas of beauty through its architecture and art.
2. In the early 20th century, modernist architects wanted to change society by designing buildings that went against traditional ideas of beauty, using materials like steel, glass and concrete.
3. Modern architecture is typically described as hard and unfriendly, featuring box-like structures with flat roofs and sharp corners, while ancient architecture is more natural and organic in form.
The document discusses the Leg Splint designed by Charles and Ray Eames during World War II for the U.S. Navy. The Eames were commissioned to create a lightweight splint that was more comfortable for wounded soldiers. Their solution used molded plywood, which allowed compound curves that were flexible but strong. Mastering this molding technique led directly to their influential molded plastic chairs and other mid-century designs. The leg splint pioneered a new approach to furniture design focused on ergonomics, materials, and mass production.

How Did Architecture Influence Greek ArchitectureDawn Robertson
Postmodernism in architecture emerged in response to Modernism, with Robert Venturi criticizing Modernism's "puritanical moral language" and preference for simplicity and rationality. Venturi proposed alternatives like "both-and" instead of "either-or" and "decorated sheds" over "duck." Examples of Postmodern architecture include the works of Australian architects Glenn Murcutt, who incorporated natural elements into his designs, and Harry Seidler, known for blending international styles with a focus on human scale.
1. The document discusses the difference between theory and history in architecture. Theory is the systematic analysis of architecture as an art or science, while history looks at architecture chronologically and causally.
2. It provides an overview of architectural history from pre-historic times to modernism. Key periods and styles discussed include Ancient Greek, Roman, Renaissance, Baroque, and Modern architecture.
3. The document focuses on the development of architectural education. It highlights the importance of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in establishing architecture as an autonomous discipline and spreading its influence globally in the 18th-19th centuries.
The document summarizes an art exhibit called "Cribs" that students will visit. It discusses two artists, Devorah Sperber and Matt Bua, who create sculptures out of found objects. It profiles three artists, R. Buckminster Fuller, Paolo Soleri, and Friedensreich Hundertwasser, who inspired Matt Bua's work. It issues a challenge for students to collect items and create a class sculpture to be displayed as part of a school-wide art installation.
The document discusses the evolution of postmodern architectural history and theory. It provides 11 key points about postmodernism according to Charles Jencks, including that it embraces pluralism, ambiguity, and uses irony to juxtapose opposites. Jencks also notes that postmodernism incorporates the modern, and represents a culture with a sense of departure but no clear direction. The document explores themes of postmodern architecture like historicism, eclecticism, and reconciling old and new generations.
Etienne-Louis Boullee was an 18th century French architect known for his theoretical designs of public monuments that sought to inspire awe and sublimity in viewers through immense architectural forms evoking nature and the divine. One such design was a 500-foot diameter domed sphere as a memorial for Isaac Newton, drawing on Newton's optics to convey the perfection of the sphere and symbolize the sun. Boullee believed symmetry extending views to the vanishing point could arouse feelings of immensity. Claude-Nicolas Ledoux designed the ideal planned city of Chaux based on the saltworks at Arc-et-Senans, combining classical and industrial elements to represent Enlightenment ideals of communal life and new
Modernism arose in the late 19th century as a philosophical movement in response to industrialization. Notable modernist architects included Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, and Frank Lloyd Wright. Modern architecture developed new building materials and techniques. Styles included the Chicago School, Expressionism, the International Style, and Brutalism. Postmodernism emerged in the 1970s as a reaction against modernism. Deconstructivism from the 1980s fragmented and layered forms. Folding architecture from the 1990s integrated differences through smooth layering inspired by geology and cooking.
Unit 5 Experiencing architecture by A.Sivaraman M.ArchSiva Raman
This document discusses how architecture can be experienced through various aspects like mass and cavities, contrasting solids and voids, and as color planes. It provides examples from buildings in Rome, Venice, and France to illustrate these concepts. The key points made are that architecture involves experiencing the spaces created by subtracting mass as well as the solids, and that some buildings are perceived more as two-dimensional color planes rather than masses. Details like ornamentation, materials, and light can transform the experience and perception of a building.
This document discusses three 18th century architectural theorists - Marc-Antoine Laugier, Etienne-Louis Boullée, and Claude Nicolas Ledoux. It provides background on each theorist and summarizes their key ideas. Laugier promoted simplifying architecture and deriving elements from nature, notably his concept of the primitive hut. Boullée emphasized using geometry, light/shadow, and scale to create emotional architecture. Both theorists had a neoclassical influence but sought to innovate. The document examines some of their specific projects to illustrate their theories.
The document discusses Karl Lagerfeld and his revisiting of the classic "little black jacket" designed by Coco Chanel in the 1950s. It provides background on how Lagerfeld came to work for Chanel and helped modernize the brand. Specifically, in 2012 Lagerfeld published a book accompanied by an exhibition and video documenting his process for updating the signature Chanel jacket while maintaining its recognizable style. The document examines Lagerfeld's career and influence across major fashion brands in bringing a modern sensibility to classic designs.
The document discusses renowned architect Zaha Hadid and her influential philosophy and approach to architecture. It notes that she was one of the few architects to shape the direction of the entire field through her work. Hadid was known for her deconstructivist style that broke from traditional architecture through displaced and distorted forms. Her seminal works like the Vitra Fire Station and MAXXI museum featured gravity-defying, fragmented designs that were revolutionary for the field.
The document provides details about Arnold, an interior designer who graduated from Coventry University in 2018. It includes a project he worked on called "Vanish" located at Drapers Hall in Coventry, UK from January to May 2017. The project involved designing a sci-fi museum for adolescents focusing on comparing the optimistic visions of the past versus the pessimistic visions of the present through elements like architecture and materials. Sketches and plans are included showing the initial design ideas and layout of the museum.
1. Loos argues that ornamentation is no longer organically related to modern culture and instead reflects earlier, less developed stages of human evolution. Ornamentation in the modern era is a sign of degeneracy or criminality.
2. He asserts that the drive to ornament in tribal societies and children is natural, but ornamentation in modern adults is unnecessary and holds back cultural progress. Plain, unornamented designs are preferable and a sign of an advanced culture and intellect.
3. Loos believes ornamentation wastes time and resources in production. Its elimination would reduce working hours and increase wages while still allowing for quality production. Unadorned, mass-produced goods are the hallmark of
Le Corbusier had a significant influence on the emergence of aesthetic values in modern architecture in Cyprus. The paper examines how Le Corbusier's principles from the early 20th century, such as his five points of architecture, impacted the work of Cypriot architect Neoptolemos Michaelides, considered the father of modern Cypriot architecture. Two of Michaelides' works, his private residence and the first residential project he designed, are analyzed as case studies that demonstrate the influence of Le Corbusier's emphasis on simplicity, rationality, and functionality.
Zaha Hadid was influenced by Russian artistic movements like Suprematism that she encountered in the 1970s. She employed techniques like abstraction and fragmentation in her designs that were learned from Suprematism. Hadid's designs are also characterized by an emphasis on fluid forms, manipulation of gravity, and play of light and shadow. Her Heydar Aliyev Center in Baku, Azerbaijan uses many of these techniques through its undulating forms and seamless interior spaces.
The document provides an overview of the development of modernist architecture in the early 20th century. It discusses key intellectual developments like Einstein's theory of relativity that challenged traditional notions. Artistic movements like De Stijl and the Bauhaus emerged, advocating simplicity and abstraction through use of basic geometric forms and primary colors. The Bauhaus school under Gropius and later Mies van der Rohe promoted integrating art and craft, and understanding new technologies. Mies van der Rohe's motto of "Less is More" epitomized the International Style. Gerrit Rietveld's Schroder House exemplified De Stijl principles through its rigid planes and use of color.

French architect Jean Nouvel believes that new technology has significantly changed architectural design and allows architects to more accurately simulate and test their designs. However, he warns that new technology also makes it easier to deceive or promote designs in an unrealistic manner. Nouvel stresses the importance of integrating a building's context and surroundings as well as reusing existing structures from the past. He cites examples from his own works like the Louvre in Abu Dhabi and opera house in Lyon that blended new designs with historical elements. When asked about future cities, Nouvel responded that cities will continue to evolve and change within themselves over time through a process of blending new developments with existing urban fabric.
Eclecticism, origin, principles and applicationsSandra Draskovic
1. Eclecticism is a design philosophy that combines elements from different styles and combines them harmoniously. It draws from multiple sources without being restricted to a single style.
2. Eclectic design works to thoughtfully connect different stylistic elements within a space to create a cohesive whole rather than a disjointed mixture. Neutral colors help different influences come together.
3. Eclectic interior design can combine styles from various time periods and origins, like modern and traditional elements. Designers carefully select pieces that complement each other to achieve an innovative look.
Architecture with Landscape Methods (PhD plan 1st year proposal).pdfWendy Belieu
This document outlines Daniel Jauslin's doctoral thesis proposal on exploring how landscape concepts and methods can inform architectural design. The proposal discusses how architecture and landscape have traditionally been viewed as separate disciplines, but how some contemporary architects are now drawing from landscape approaches. Jauslin will investigate specific projects to understand how landscape informed their design and composition. The proposal also provides background on landscape architectural methods and identifies counterparts in architecture to help structure the analysis. If approved, Jauslin plans to publish results and complete the thesis with supervision over the coming years.

Final PaperOne reason that California have been known as the Gol.docxcharlottej5
Final Paper
One reason that California have been known as the Golden State is because of the influence of Hollywood. The well-known reputation of the entertainment of Hollywood has been showed the natural advantages of California, such as the weather, coast, and the natural resources. Also, the Hollywood shows another side of California, which is the world-leading level of technology companies. However, it is controversial to state that California is shown to the world by Hollywood. In fact, I prefer the saying that the history and the multicultural environment breed the great potential of the newborn Hollywood at the first place. While Hollywood shows the diverse cultures in California, it expresses in the influence of the California history by showing the images of different racial people in the films.
California have been a state of immigration, attracting people from the world to migrate the family and invite them to contribute for the development of California. It is fair to say that California was built by the people with different ethnical backgrounds. However, Hollywood has not been treated equally to the contributors with different races. White can be always be the lead of the movie. For example, a white actor can play the role with quality of richness, smartness and toughness. A non-white Hispanic actor can play the role of a billionaire, a drug dealer, a villain, a genius, and a special agent. However, Chinese Americans have the least if the scenes in the Hollywood films. Chinese Americans express a very stereotypical image of neediness, Kungfu, or weakness. In historical speaking, the Chinese were first shown in California in the event of Gosh Rush in the 1800s. The image of Chinese miners in Gold Rush is influent to the image of the Chinese Americans from Hollywood firms. It is hard to truly know the Chinese culture through the media. I doubt that Chinese culture does not assimilate to the society of California. In the Chronicling California, it pointed out that the Chinese culture was not quite “fit” into the California society: “the expulsion of the Chinese is not demanded on the ground that they represent cheap labor... they are regarded by the thoughtful as objectionable because they represent a substitution of unchangeable foreign and hopelessly unassimilative material for that which is malleable and assimilative” (100, Hoikkala and Wallis). Most of the Chinese miners had the strong responsibilities to support their families by sending the money to oversea. The loss of currency conflicts with the California society also indirectly caused the Chinese Exclusion Act later in 1882. Comparing to other immigrants, Chinese suffered the unequal treatments, which is why it is hard to see the Chinese cultures in the early Hollywood films.
While Hollywood has published some great firms about the World War II, it emphasized the victory of the United States, avoiding the fact that how the California government treated unfairly to the.

When asked about future cities, Nouvel responded that cities will continue to evolve and change within themselves over time through a process of blending new developments with existing urban fabric.
Eclecticism, origin, principles and applicationsSandra Draskovic
1. Eclecticism is a design philosophy that combines elements from different styles and combines them harmoniously. It draws from multiple sources without being restricted to a single style.
2. Eclectic design works to thoughtfully connect different stylistic elements within a space to create a cohesive whole rather than a disjointed mixture. Neutral colors help different influences come together.
3. Eclectic interior design can combine styles from various time periods and origins, like modern and traditional elements. Designers carefully select pieces that complement each other to achieve an innovative look.
Architecture with Landscape Methods (PhD plan 1st year proposal).pdfWendy Belieu
This document outlines Daniel Jauslin's doctoral thesis proposal on exploring how landscape concepts and methods can inform architectural design. The proposal discusses how architecture and landscape have traditionally been viewed as separate disciplines, but how some contemporary architects are now drawing from landscape approaches. Jauslin will investigate specific projects to understand how landscape informed their design and composition. The proposal also provides background on landscape architectural methods and identifies counterparts in architecture to help structure the analysis. If approved, Jauslin plans to publish results and complete the thesis with supervision over the coming years.

Final PaperOne reason that California have been known as the Gol.docxcharlottej5
Final Paper
One reason that California have been known as the Golden State is because of the influence of Hollywood. The well-known reputation of the entertainment of Hollywood has been showed the natural advantages of California, such as the weather, coast, and the natural resources. Also, the Hollywood shows another side of California, which is the world-leading level of technology companies. However, it is controversial to state that California is shown to the world by Hollywood. In fact, I prefer the saying that the history and the multicultural environment breed the great potential of the newborn Hollywood at the first place. While Hollywood shows the diverse cultures in California, it expresses in the influence of the California history by showing the images of different racial people in the films.
California have been a state of immigration, attracting people from the world to migrate the family and invite them to contribute for the development of California. It is fair to say that California was built by the people with different ethnical backgrounds. However, Hollywood has not been treated equally to the contributors with different races. White can be always be the lead of the movie. For example, a white actor can play the role with quality of richness, smartness and toughness. A non-white Hispanic actor can play the role of a billionaire, a drug dealer, a villain, a genius, and a special agent. However, Chinese Americans have the least if the scenes in the Hollywood films. Chinese Americans express a very stereotypical image of neediness, Kungfu, or weakness. In historical speaking, the Chinese were first shown in California in the event of Gosh Rush in the 1800s. The image of Chinese miners in Gold Rush is influent to the image of the Chinese Americans from Hollywood firms. It is hard to truly know the Chinese culture through the media. I doubt that Chinese culture does not assimilate to the society of California. In the Chronicling California, it pointed out that the Chinese culture was not quite “fit” into the California society: “the expulsion of the Chinese is not demanded on the ground that they represent cheap labor... they are regarded by the thoughtful as objectionable because they represent a substitution of unchangeable foreign and hopelessly unassimilative material for that which is malleable and assimilative” (100, Hoikkala and Wallis). Most of the Chinese miners had the strong responsibilities to support their families by sending the money to oversea. The loss of currency conflicts with the California society also indirectly caused the Chinese Exclusion Act later in 1882. Comparing to other immigrants, Chinese suffered the unequal treatments, which is why it is hard to see the Chinese cultures in the early Hollywood films.
While Hollywood has published some great firms about the World War II, it emphasized the victory of the United States, avoiding the fact that how the California government treated unfairly to the.

Final PaperFinal Paper SynopsisThe purpose of this paper .docxcharlottej5
Final Paper
Final Paper Synopsis:
The purpose of this paper will be to simulate a professional analysis of a segment of technology that will contribute to the success of your fictional company. Each student will use the same company. You will choose one of five technologies on which to focus. The complete guidelines are below beginning with the scenario.
Scenario
Overview
JK Incorporated is a 50-year-old retail and distribution grocery company that owns and operates 3,000 stores under different banners across the United States. The mix of products includes products purchased from other manufacturers as well as product that JK manufactures itself. This results in national brands and private labels sold side by side. JK has stores, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and its own distribution fleet of trucks.
JK has enjoyed many years of success using methods that are now considered out of date and is now no longer leading in the industry. Technically progressive companies have entered the grocery industry and are threatening to disrupt JK and put it out of business entirely. JK has many areas that are in need of analysis to identify the positive impact that newer technology may have on its business.
You have been assigned to choose one of the 4 “current state” issues below and articulate the benefits of using the new technology.
Current State Issues
1. JK is using multiple regional data centers with older and less reliable hardware to deliver technical capabilities like point of sale, distribution logistics, loyalty programs, etc. Each of these data centers has high overhead with regard to management (labor), administration (skills), facilities (buildings, environmentals, security, network, and energy). This issue may be a candidate for the analysis of cloud computing.
2. JK has many distribution centers and trucks. These distribution centers do not integrate with the store systems for the timely tracking of deliveries. The current systems do not allow the store managers to answer simple questions like “where’s my truck” or “where’s my order”. JK also has a limited home delivery or “buy online and pick up in store capability. In essence, the distribution channel stops at the store rather than at the customers home as opposed to up and coming rivals. This issue may be a candidate for an overhaul of the enterprise Warehouse Management System and supply chain optimization.
3. JK has limited knowledge of it’s customers. The company relies primarily on random coupons based on products that need to be moved quickly. The marketing and promotion campaigns rely heavily on newspaper advertisements that promote based on time of year, holidays, or weekly bargains that represent overstock or third party promotions that they pass on to customers. There is a limited mobile and web experience with regard to meal planning, shopping list, personal preferences, allergies, or other localization items. This issue may be a candidate.

Final Paper, Essay Proposal, & Outline
·
The final essay should be about
6-7 pages
in length
·
The focus of this essay will be to state, explain, develop, and defend a particular thesis based upon some theme in philosophy of religion related to the texts we’ve been reading.
·
The thesis needs to make some specific
claim
(or closely interrelated set of claims) about some topic or theme that we’ve touched on this term, (see list of possible topics below).
·
This claim needs to be stated clearly, explained carefully, fully developed in relation to the kinds of arguments and objections we’ve encountered in texts, by at least two different authors, and defended with philosophical arguments and reasons drawing upon texts we’ve read, ideas of your own, and your own experiences and beliefs.
·
Be sure to relate the theme of your essay to our lives. Why does this claim matter? What difference does it make if you’re right about the thesis?
Topics:
Possible theses can respond to the following topics…
·
Is it appropriate to claim that there is only one true religion?
(Please don’t pick this one, if your answer is “no…”).
·
Do all religions share some common core, so that differences don’t really matter?
·
Does the existence of evil and suffering logically disprove a good all-powerful God?
(Please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…”)
·
Does the amount and kind of evil and suffering count against the existence of God? Is any evil truly pointless?
(Again, please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…”)
·
Does claiming we cannot know whether any evil is pointless also entail that we cannot know (apart from divine revelation) that God really intends our good?
·
Is it possible for God to make genuinely free creatures who are guaranteed never to do wrong (Please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…” either).
·
Is evil and suffering in the world justified by bringing a greater good?
(Please don’t choose this one, if your answer is “no…”).
·
Does Christian belief in the incarnation, suffering, , death, and resurrection of Jesus make a difference for the problem of evil and suffering?
·
What is the nature of evil? Is it a “thing” in this world or is it merely the privation of good?
·
Do even secular values (moral, political, social, etc.) function ultimately in a kind of religious way? What are the limits of tolerance?
·
How can a loving God judge evil and how can God allow some people to choose an ultimate destiny that ends in their own destruction (i.e. Hell)?
·
If Darwinian explanations of the natural order of the world are true, does that exclude the existence of God or make God’s existence superfluous
(Please don’t choose this one if your answer is “yes…”).
·
If Darwinian explanations of the natural order of the world are true, what does that suggest about the nature of divine providence and God’s relation to the creation?
(Please try not to pick this one; thank you)

The option I chose for the final project was option (b), to select and write about a feature length film made between 1970-2000. The film I chose is a story by Stephen King, ‘The Green Mile’, directed by Frank Darabont. Below I will outline my final paper for the course, as well as list and discuss a few sources that I will be citing.
· Introduction
· Discuss the making of the film
· The film’s success (box office/awards and nominations)
· Critical reaction to the film
· Personal reaction to the film (what I liked/did not like, critique of main character roles and actors/actresses who played them)
· Discuss direction of film (montage/sound and music)
· Discuss direction of film cont. (cinematography/ special effects)
· Conclusion
· Bibliography
Cinematography of The Green Mile. (2014). Cinematography of The Green Mile. Retrieved 27 June 2017, from https://bnyce82.wordpress.com/
This reference is specific to the cinematography techniques used in the film, ‘The Green Mile’. It provides insight into the various aspects of cinematography, such as the tone of the film, the camera angles and lighting, as well as the dialogue between the characters. This reference will help backup the information I will provide in my final paper.
Darabont, F. (1999). The Green Mile. Retrieved from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VslrToVsu80
This reference is the actual film, ‘The Green Mile’, found on YouTube. I will be watching the entire film to gather information for my final paper. The information I will be looking for while watching this film are the editing techniques used by the director, as well as my personal reaction to draw a general conclusion from.
Ebert, R. (1999). The Green Mile Movie Review & Film Summary (1999) | Roger Ebert. Rogerebert.com. Retrieved 27 June 2017, from http://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/the-green-mile-1999
The movie review of, ‘The Green Mile’, by the late Roger Ebert is a perfect reference to gain insight to the critical review of the film upon its release. I will be referencing opinions and points made by the infamous film critic, as he discusses the direction of the film, as well as the actors’ performance.
Kuhn, A., & Westwell, G.(2012). cinematography. In A Dictionary of Film Studies. : Oxford University Press. Retrieved 28 Jun. 2017, from http://www.oxfordreference.com/view/10.1093/acref/9780199587261.001.0001/acref-9780199587261-e-0124.
This general reference on cinematography is from the Oxford Dictionary of Film Studies. I found this entry very useful during week 4 of the course when it was presented and will use it as a reference for my final paper, as well as future discussions. The entry defines cinematography in film making as capturing movement on film, as well as explains the role of a cinematographer on a movie set.

Final Digital Marketing Plan
Final Digital Marketing Plan PowerPoint Presentation,
Introduction
In this PowerPoint presentation, we will present our Final Digital Marketing Plan for our product the Concussion Protocol Sensor (CPS). This product idea was created by Simone Harvey and voted on by the remaining team members in team D to implement as our product idea. In the first phase of the marketing plan we outlined a target market and included a segmentation criteria for the Concussion Protocol Sensor. Second, we will developed a digital advertising strategy and included two sample banner ads and a mock landing page for the website in our marketing plan. Third, the presentation will provide examples of three mock web ads and include specifics of where they will be placed. And we will create a budget for a two week advertising campaign.
The second phase of the marketing plan will summarize our plan to reach consumers. Our goal to reach our consumers is by using email marketing to directly send out email advertisements to consumers through the assistance of AWeber. In today’s day and age, social media and instant connection is the best most popular way of connecting with not only friends and family but consumers as well. There are many different forms of social media out there today such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and Instagram. We will utilize these platforms in our marketing strategy in an effort to reach as many consumers as possible.

Target MarketYouth Sports Programs focused on young athletesHigh School students interested in sportsCollege Athletic ProgramsCoaches involved in sports programs
The target market for the CPS would be youth sports programs focused on young athletes, age 6-13; high schools students interested in sports, age 14-18; University athletic programs, and coaches involved in sports.
The ages that would benefit would span from very young children all the way to adults that are active in sports or other activities that could be extreme enough to lead to potential head injuries.

Demographic Market Segmentation
As it relates to the segmentation criteria we used to determine the target market for the CPS, we chose the Demographic Market Segmentation’s, as it works best with our marketing strategy since the data is easily available and drastically affects buying patterns. Age, income, gender, ethnic background and family life cycle are all important factors of demographic segmentation.
The CPS is going to use an age range of 5-34 years of.

Well, my plan is more comprehensive. And frankly, it’s tougher because of course we have to deal with the
problem that the banks are still too big to fail…But we also have to worry about some of the other players—
AIG, a big insurance company; Lehman Brothers, an investment bank. There’s this whole area called “shadow

How to Build a Module in Odoo 17 Using the Scaffold MethodCeline George
Odoo provides an option for creating a module by using a single line command. By using this command the user can make a whole structure of a module. It is very easy for a beginner to make a module. There is no need to make each file manually. This slide will show how to create a module using the scaffold method.
How to Fix the Import Error in the Odoo 17Celine George
An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution. In languages like Python, this issue arises when the specified module cannot be found or accessed, hindering the program's functionality. Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.
How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Architecture in our Life
There are a lot of things in the world is important and we
can not live without, but there some important than others. It is
depending how the human live and what he needs. Architecture
is important in our life. And it is changes a lot of things and the
way we live. Also, it mads some changes on the earth.
First, Adolf Loos focused how is the earth is amazing, and he
described the lake when it is green, and you can see the sky is
blue from it. Also, how are mountains and trees being mad from
god and the human cannot do something even close like that. By
his words you feel of the beauty of the earth like you imagine
you are in the place and you see what he is describing. He is
looking at the place in architect’s way and how is created. And
he is describing how does the place show the peace and beauty
no more. Everything created by God not from the peasant nor
the engineer. The joiner takes the measurements for doors and
3. windows and all the other things they needed, then the go to
their workshops and started the work. His goal was to build a
beautiful house for himself and his family and he succeeded.
Inside of the house have many of different materials like
velvet and silk and columns and moldings. After they said “how
ugly and joyless our lives are! And they gathered together
everything from the old cultures, established them in museums
and said, look, that is true beauty. You have been living among
wretched ugliness.” (Adolf Loos, 41). Everything is change with
the time. Like in the past people covers everything in their body
with tattoos from the face and body down. And it is a way to
design and make the body beautiful, but today the way using
and people thinking is different. Tattoos is a sign of
degeneration and the criminals who using it. The architects can
make ideas and styles of the buildings that in the past, but it
will lose all the contact with the time. “The master of today can
works well as any master of any age. But the contemporary of
Goethe could no longer make ornaments. So those who had the
new warped ideas were sought out and placed before the masters
as guardians.” (Adolf Loos, 42). So, the architects took
everything from the books, and the ideas from the past and to
the present day.
The arts have many connections and every art leads to the
other like the arts begin with the graphic art and that shades off
into painting. And from that the arts goes to the plastic art and
from plastic art we have now architecture. The way that arts
leads to each other and starts from gothic to the architecture,
but it is now having a different end of the lines. Many arts
worked out on the drawing boards as well as the architecture.
And for the detailing of the building it can be seen in architect
which of the pencil they going to use pencil number 1 or pencil
number 5. “The marks of the drawing pen have produced an
epidemic of squares. No window frame or marble slab remains
unmarked in the scale of 1:100, and bricklayers and stone-
masons must hack out this graphic nonsense in the sweat of
their brows.” (Adolf Loos, 43). Also, the color of the pen is
4. matter and makes a different.
The period of the time from the past it was a change
without precedent in our cultural history. Also, the style of the
houses is changing, and it is different styles with different
times. For example, it is different between the house of the
fifteenth and the house of the seventeenth century. “That is, not
a great deal. The one was of blue clothe and had gold buttons.
The black tailcoat is in the style of our time. No one can deny
that. The new movement, in its arrogance, omitted to reform our
clothing.” (Adolf Loos, 44). The clothes stayed in the same
style, but with a little different of changing on it.
There are different between the house and the art. The
house is part of the owner and it should be comfortable for him.
The house is private thing, but the art is not. Also, there are
more and more differences like a house needs a supply and the
work of art is answerable to no one. “The work of art is
revolutionary, the house conservative. The work of art points
man in the direction of new paths and thinks to the future. The
house thinks of the present. Man loves everything that serves
his comfort. He hates everything that wants to tear him away
from his secure and safe position and is burdensome.” And
that’s showed us the man loves the house and hates the art.
The buildings are part of the world not of the painting or
carving. Building is the main of the art. And all other arts come
after the building. “That which is built, however, stands in the
sun, in the wind, and in the rain. Its environment is not its
enemy, but its playmate. And only the art of building can play
with the great existing wonders around us.” (Adolf Loos, 45).
Everything in the building is matter angular or curvilinear,
smooth or ornamented, blunt or sharp edged, light or dark. The
elements and the architecture are the only thing that directly
deals together.
The glass architecture is a big deal but the European not
quite ready for it. The idea of the glass architecture is simple,
and it is understandable if it is presents like Scheerbart in the
light gayest optimism. It is not a crazy way to do a glass
5. architecture it is just a new of culture. “No material overcomes
matter to such an extent as glass. Glass is a completely virgin
material; to produce it, matter has been melted down and
transformed. It has the most elementary effect of all we possess.
The glass reflecting the sky and the sun as the water reflecting
them. And it comes with a lot of colors, and shapes that can
control to make the building beautiful. And it has different
quality. All the other materials when it is comparison with the
glass it is seeming to be derivative or trifling merely man mad.
The glass has an extra super human quality. European is fears
that the glass architecture might become uncomfortable. “Glass
architecture rules out the dull vegetative state of jellyfish like
comfort in which all value become blunted and worn, and it
substitutes a state of bright alertness, a daring activity, and the
creation of ever fresher, even more beautiful values.” (Adolf
Behne, 76). Glass architecture will eliminate all harshness from
Europeans and replace it with tenderness and beauty.
Our culture is a product that related to our architecture.
“Glass architecture that lets the sunlight and the light of the
moon and stars into our rooms not merely number of walls that
are made entirely of glass.” (Adolf Behne, 32). The earth
surface would change if the brick architecture were everywhere
changed with glass architecture. It is like the earth wearing a
jewellery. That is absolutely is unimaginable beautiful and we
should have on the earth more things than the garden of the
Arabian Nights. We should have on the earth paradise and
would not need to gaze longingly at the paradise in the sky.
Iron construction makes it possible to give the walls any
form that may be desired. Walls does not need to be vertical
anymore. The dome effects up above to displace the sides, so
when you look at the sideways of it and upwards in order to
observe the dome effect. Also, the curved surfaces are also
affect in the lower part of the walls and that easy to achieve in
smaller rooms. The smaller rooms are completely and totally no
need to be vertical. The ground plane in architecture is
important as well as other parts of the building. And the design
6. of the outline of the building is important. “No doubt a terrace
formation is necessary in taller glass building and with several
storeys, since otherwise the glass surface could not reach the
free light-conducting air, to wich they aspire, since in darkness
they can fulfil their purpose only at night not during the day.”
(Adolf Behne, 33). These information of the storeys will
quickly replace the dreary frontal architecture of brick houses.
Eighty years a go the steam railway came along and
transformed the whole surface of the earth. The earth is going to
be transfer to a glass architecture. When it is come it will
transfer the earth surface naturally. The glass architecture will
come only when the world done with a metropolis. “We shall
nevertheless be justified in supposing that to begin with we may
attain that which is accessible to us-to wit, that part of the
spectrum which we are able to perceive with our eyes, those
miracles of colour which we are capable of taking in.” (Adolf
Behne, 33). The thing that will transform our life is the glass
architecture and that will transfer the surface of the earth.
Finally, the German want to change the culture and they
focused on the future instead of Italian they focused on the
present. Architecture is play a big part of the earth and it makes
a lot of change on it. All the arts are related to each other, but
the architecture is the important one.

aesthetics as compared to other issues presented by modern day
architecture for example strength of materials and limitation of
costs during the undertaking of a project in architecture. The
architecture described in the Le Corbusier articles for example
clearly indicates that architecture has shifted its focus to
engineering. The engineer has more responsibilities and one of
these includes bringing forth the beauty in an architectural
structure by use of mathematics or calculations and application
of economy. Traditionally, this was the work of the architect.
They would use their imagination and creativity to inspire
emotions in people viewing their works. This creativity would
translate to aesthetic values seen in most old structures in Rome
and Italy where great artists constructed museums and
exhibitions.
Use of brick and stone was the norm during old architectural
times. Currently, use of reinforced concrete (iron, steel and
concrete) is the trend. The focus seems to have shifted to these
methods with emphasis on strength of the structure and
economics going into the construction. It is indeed true that
architecture has really evolved, from the simple forms where
beauty lied in simplicity to emphasis on complexity, strength of
structures and the cost of undertaking an architectural project.
Once upon a time, beauty and aesthetic value in architecture
laid in simplicity, the guiding principles in a lot of designs and
forms of architecture was how light-struck objects and the
perceptions this created, things have however greatly changed.
Le Corbusier describes this as a past form of architecture. The
beauty of architectural designs and forms now lies in something
else in the styles of construction, in complexity of a structure
and so on. The evolution experienced in this field has shifted to
iron and cement in place of structure and decor as in Le
Corbusier’s own words.
10. Contemporary architecture is afraid of the constituents of
geometry. Architecture is about planning and ensuring the
implementation of this plan. It is about the application of
concepts of geometry which will indeed solve modern day
challenges in the field of architecture. According to the lessons
from Rome, the article puts emphasis on what the traditional
architecture was about regarding the passion and emotions
generated by architectural forms. The surface and exhibited
forms of architecture were because of the inner and underlying
forms and material utilized in coming up with the architectural
forms.
Our perception of architecture has since been corrupted by
things we see rather than what we feel when experiencing and
viewing a form of architecture. We are driven closer by that
which we see whereas architecture is about evoking our inner
emotions on the state of an architectural form. It is about being
in synchronization with the creators of the structure. The
modern day architectural forms do not answer to our pure
desires and needs. They do not feed to the beauty and
imagination of people but rather satisfy only physical needs of
shelter for example.
A different perspective on modern day architecture is supported
by people in Italy for example who deny that concrete can attain
the desired artistic beauty. However, it is argued that concrete
can indeed attain the aestheticism desired aside from what
commonly people view it for as a rigid and ugly form of
architecture. Concrete has brought a new taste to the
construction industry and this is absent in the minds and
perceptions of many people who view it as a tool to corner
architecture into just economy and strength of structures.
Modern day architecture has adopted the use. For example,
concrete to fix flaws in construction and cater for the need to
have stronger structures perhaps because of the experience of
wars and disruptions all over. The simplicity in architecture has
been replaced by need for stronger structures, longer lasting
structures and value for money, a lot of constructions nowadays
11. base their designs on the lifespan of the structure, its resistance
to forces of nature and its ability to satisfy physical needs
rather than inner needs. This is considered as beauty in
contemporary architecture.
In conclusion, concrete provides solutions to what older
architecture could not achieve and that is strength. However, it
would be a catastrophe not to agree to the fact that architecture
is an art and beauty in art lies in simplicity. It is true that
contemporary art has moved its focus to concrete which is
complex and hard to sculpture. For example, A lot could be said
on issues of the underlying beauty in iron and cement for
example that it brings new taste to the industry and is used to
hide flaws and connect parts in construction that traditional
architecture could not achieve. However, it is paramount to note
that when talking about architecture; adoption and consideration
of strength, geometry and calculations over simplicity, emotions
and perceptions, the effects of light as it strikes objects and
exhibition of art so that the surface brings forth inner emotions
is a fallacy, it is a lie.

Modern Architecture
World war aftermath opened the door for the different type of
architecture and ideology leading to a new sense of
development and historical restoration of different volume.
There was a choice of rebuilding or repairing what was availed
and thus a window into the actual struggle of the common
people into understanding wealth, economy and business. It is
that it became easier to understand the idea of freedom in
expression. There was string want to shift from the aristocratic
rule and an almost a new urge to rebel against anything that
symbolized. This led to the evolution of architecture with more
focus on the interest aspect that the beauty of the structure. In
this way, modern architecture became more symbolic and
functional spec as it shifted to go higher and higher to capacity
every economic situation of the people. As result, there is a
sudden change from the more concentration of artist in design,
art pieces and curves in building to a sound structure and
strength that was evident from the change. The strength of
change was to fast that growth has been fast over the years and
shifted more and more in the utilization of small spaces in
design elements and a lack of luster in terms of the visual
presentation.
Sometimes the level of design is an element that should be
considered relative as it implies what preference are the more
best elements that the other. In this way, there cannot be a
comparison of old and new architecture. Therefore, everything
remains in its place and at its time that best in quality
depending on the moment of its existences. As result, there
cannot be any piece that is looked down upon nor considered to
14. be of more importance than the rest and in this way, the concern
will be in cherishing of the development in value and in
consideration of elemental needs (Venturi, 1966). Hence a more
competitive at the present age to outdo the other within its
capacity leading to more superior consideration of the time that
may leave a legacy for the continuation within the next decade
or timeline.
Therefore, defining the culture of architecture will not be based
on the human growth and evolution element rather than the type
of function of structure and the advancement in terms of the
application of elements that define the building. It will speak
more of the science and art of architecture rather than
representation of a group of people existing at the time.
However, it is hard to consider this, but slow globalization of
the economy and the community at large is making it possible
with the fact that there is a need for purpose rather than
flourish. This need will, therefore, lead to focus on spate pieces
that become more of the outspoken prowess of time keeping
architecture a science and art that does not conform to the norm
hence scarcity will provide into rarity of pieces and hence a
cherishing of the luxury and efforts towards its construction and
advancements.
Robert Venturi’s position in Complexity and Contradiction in
Architecture(1966), points to modern architecture as being
mature in a position to validate the self-actualization of people
who live in it. This idea limits the fact that there is a
considerable outlook in term of what is being prioritized over
the other. The fact that the author suggests an understanding of
the complexity in simple terms with modern architecture shows
a rather lack of understanding of the idea of structure and art.
The venture has only looked form the perspective of functional
space and the value that is put in space as a commodity failing
to understand the implication of design in the most basic way.
There is no growth without understanding that a gap must be
there to be filled. Agreeing that modern architecture is the
epitome of design would mean that there is no growth, or the
15. expected result would be deterioration of standard. In optimal
use of space, there is the technological component and the
material of building that is taken it on the account. However,
there is more responsibility that is laid to the people living
within it and a booming interior design living part of the
responsibility to the user if space (Johnson, 1955).
In a way this only shifts the definitive aspect of architecture to
people who have no expertise or a coordination to understand
the value of that spec in architectural components. This means
that within one building, there is versatility of taste that makes
it easier to grasp the whole concept. It paves the way to a
complexity of the nature of the design and an almost confused
sense of what it really means. While I agree simplicity has made
it much easier to use space, there has been a few aspects that
have been lost in terms of the power of the architect-designer
giving rise onto a market that aims to fulfill it. This slowly
takes away the beauty of the study and separates it into
components which while they grow, it is no longer with the
same structure as the foundation of architecture (Johnson,
1955).
Therefore, calling this aspect as maturity shows a lack of
understanding of the dimension in looking at art from another
perspective. In modern architecture, the functional aspect has
been made a focal point of prioritization that it has become
almost clinical. This can be seen with institutions in which
there is strict rule sin lace to ensure that there’s efficiency. One
consideration is building in school in which the beauty is no
longer a factor and what is concentrated on is the idea of
movement from one place to another. The idea of the vicinity of
utilities such that the kitchen cannot be far from the dining
room, the toilets cannot be far from the classroom space and
definitively the security would not be hidden but rather easy to
access.
Value is placed in the use of less time without considering that
sometimes, it loses the aesthetics of development prompting the
teachers to fill these need with numerous pictures and art pieces
16. in the halls, hallway and in offices. This takes away the
structural flow of the architectural design to concentrate more
on the individual taste. It, therefore, looks like architecture has
only shacked it responsibilities by delegating the duty as the
building looks incompletes when done (Venturi, 1966). This
goes to show that instead of becoming more competent and
adding onto the growth, architecture is taken apart to comprise
another aspect and a displacement of the value in priority,
quality and value that diminishes with a minimalistic society
that fails to recognize the additional expense that is placed to
compensate for lack of expression.
Consumerism has certainly boosted this aspect as more people
move towards cities requiring more space hence a need for even
more minimization of the design aspect. Somebody said that
people are now living in boxes which do not define who they
are and what they represent hence a loss in recognition of the
artistic view in architecture meaning that there is the soul that it
lost. It appears to be very true as the more identify that is given
is consideration of the economic value of the space lives hence
the idea of status based on a more self-pronunciation culture. It
is because architecture is tied directly to the cultural
development that there seems to be a deterioration of purpose.
This goes to support the idea discussed earlier on that there
needs to be a differentiation of culture and design as an aspect
of science to allow room for expression and growth in
architecture.
Considering all these elements, there is indeed a systematic
definition of modern architecture based on the seven crutches of
architecture that seem to hinder development. The crutch if
history, pretty drawing, utility, saving the cent, cheapness,
comfort, and structure. There is no foundation of what was there
and what had been rather a more personal interest that considers
history almost redundant to the point that there isn’t futuristic
planning and longevity further that the purpose of the building.
In the aspect, therefore, there are so many common and similar
building that is mostly because the idea of common become
17. what the trend develops and what the consumers of space
requirements. Therefore, uniqueness disappears instead to be
replaced with an overwhelming uniformity of structure. It
brings in the aspect of trend and tested which is clinical in that
the people are more concerned with what worked in the first
consideration leading to a lack of creativity and room for
growth (Johnson, 1955). This has been enabling with the focus
of economy hence a need for reassurance in return of investment
hence focus on the aspect of the now and quickness to put up.
There is a complete disregard for the investment of time into
designing making it a strictly business as firm and construction
companies are delegated with the duty to oversee everything.
In addition, a concentration on comfortability of space and in
personal initiative including the aspect of environmental
concern has reduced the focus on the aesthetic value. Which
leads the development of aspects that only are necessary, which
has limited architecture is limited to only it is usefulness. In
this way, a more appealing outlook is not a consideration as
beauty is defined in the way space is moveable rather than how
it moves. In this way, modern architecture has shifted to the
basic of angled design rather than curvature that would tend to
make it more uncomfortable for placement of utilities. This
makes it easier to understand why that architecture has shifted
to budgetary constraint. In eco-friendly economy, it is much
expensive to consider the long-term involvement and viability
which makes economic returns a much nor concern (Johnson,
1955). Therefore, the focus has been on whether the building
would be able to bring in income and thus consideration of
inclusion of value in term of the entrepreneurship aspect of the
building rather than its architecture value. This explains the
consideration of the use of cheap material and less investment
in time for income generation.
However, the blame cannot be put on the economic development
alone as there is evidence in place of the institutionalization of
architecture that has made it a commodity. Architecture is an art
and understanding that art is almost intrinsic. Therefore,
18. teaching about architecture a science is taking away the freedom
to express how to would flow. There is certain element yes that
is teachable, but theoretical understanding, which the focus in
modern teaching it makes it a hard concept to grasp (Venturi,
1966). Therefore, commercialization becomes the only way
since it will provide an avenue for learning by experience. This
creates a shortage in the capacity with time and therefore, a run
with time. In addition, employment with corporations has made
it a business venture taking away the artistic power from the
designer and thus an introduction of clinical implementation.
The control is in the management rather than eth owner of the
building and the artist in place. In this way, there is ‘rushness’
added to the fact that as a commodity, both the art and the
person a veto be in line with certain regulation d rules.
The idea of the strict measure has, therefore, made it hard for
the flexibility created in letting idea flow and allowing change
as time goes on. There is a sense of exactness that has been
placed as the responsibility of the architect making it almost
impossible to voice any other changes. Therefore, a limitation
in the power of the person intended to be creative starting at the
level of the institution to the practical experience makes it hard
to see a change and observe evolution. It would explain why the
experimental design often must be self-funded or funded for a
purpose of expressivity (Venturi, 1966). In this way, when
power is taken away in any form in term of artistic value, there
is an element of unappreciation which acts as demotivation
making the artist limit their growth to only what is expected.
Conclusion
Through understanding the variable that defines the more recent
modern architecture, complexity is evident in its idea of
simplistic implementation. It appears that the tearing apart of
the component of architecture has made it impersonal and
contradictory in the sense that oversimplification has made it
more formal a subject contributing to the disconnectedness in
the experience of the art and science if architecture space. There
is no progress that has been made and as result, a complete shift
19. from the tradition with a wrong trajectory. There is no sense of
ownership in the design as more and more economization of the
field has made time to be of essence more than the drawing and
bringing to life the plans in place. This makes the implication
that architecture has reached its maturation a joke.
