Remix

The reading was about copyright issues and how to try to avoid them. Many artist copyright their work so that no one comes along and takes their idea and makes money off of it. Many artists take thus Very seriously so one must be cautious when trying to come up with something. If you want to grab ideas from a certain artist you have to make sure that you give credit to the author or creator, or  else they could get mad. One example is the mother who posted the video of her child dancing to a Prince song and got sued for it. The lawsuit is probably a little ridiculous but that is how serious some artist take their work. The mother probably just wanted everyone to see her cute baby and probably could’ve gotten away with it if the video didn’t become viral or if another artists song was playing. This is how serious some artist take copyright issues, however if you give them credit and say that it is some sort of a remix than it should be fine.

For example, Straub mentions how if it's a first or rough draft, try not to deal with all the editing at once but instead focus on the large picture like the focus, con...

Picture Rhetoric

This ticket is advertising an upcoming event that the sorority, Delta Gamma, is holding. It is rhetorically effective because it is colorful and completely delivers the idea that there will be a variety of different desserts at the event.

I think that the size is very effective for this advertising ticket. I also think it very well informs the public because it states the time the event will be held and the date, as well as the address.

Peaceful Protest during the Vietnam War- Sophia Fundora, Alison McGrath

Peaceful Protest during the Vietnam War Throughout the sixties, antiwar protests sprung up across America due to the United States' controversial involvement in the Vietnam War. The Vietnam War Protests are marked as being some of the first major anti-war protests in the States. In today's society, there are various non-violent anti-war protests around the globe. These protests have made monumental differences around the world, as put by Julia Bacha, "The [Budrus] residents, after ten months of peaceful resistance, convinced the Israeli government to move the root of the barrier off their lands and to the green line, which is internationally recognized boundary between Israel and the Palestinian territories," (1). Though some may claim that the Vietnam protests had no effect and the only reason we pulled out of the war was due to how costly it was, this protest is pivotal in setting an example for future peaceful protestors throughout history.
